2 Operation
Use of VS pulper
The VS pulper is designed for the
slushing of:
– semi-chemical pulps such as
dry or wet pulp and
groundwood,
– machine broke
– clean, sorted recovered paper
at a stock consistency of up to
7%.

The material to be slushed can

be fed into the pulper in bales or
as loose material.
2
The pulper may be operated batch-wise or in
some special cases in continuous mode.
The furnish fed into the pulper is dis-
integrated in a fiber-preserving manner
by the slushing impeller and the strong
turbulence of the tank contents. Large baffles
quickly move the furnish to the center of the
turbulence.

The pumpable slushed stock leaves the

pulper through the screen plate held open
by the slushing impeller. The clearance
between the slushing impeller and the
screen plate is adjustable by moving the
bearing assembly. 3

Safety

- all safety devices (especially the belt guards) must be installed

- The edge of the vat must be protected against the risk of falling in
(1.2 m over floor)
- Chemicals or decomposing stock residues in the pulper may
produce harmful gases or harmful gases may settle at the bottom.
These gases may cause poisoning or suffocation because they are
heavier than air so that they displace the air at the tank bottom.
- Rotating slushing impeller! Persons in the tank can be caught and
killed by the slushing impeller.
- Wires can spring off when bales of raw material are being
handled. These wires could cause eye and/or hand injuries.
Always wear goggles and safety gloves when handling
bales of raw material!
