New “Flat Bottom” Bin Discharger from Acrison

Acrison's Model 170-BD-30 'Flat Bottom' Bin Discharger
Moonachie, NJ -- The Model 170-BD-30 Bin Discharger utilizes mechanically induced internal agitation to promote the discharge of dry solid ingredients from within a bin or hopper, typically for filling an Acrison Feeder or to refill an Acrison “Weight-Loss” Weigh Feeder. The Bin Discharger is a “self-emptying” design with complete and total clean-out capability.

The Model 10-BD-30 Bin Discharger consists of a circular, non-converging flat bottom housing containing a horizontally mounted agitator (driven from beneath) for effectively and reliably discharging dry solids materials from within the storage bin or hopper to which it is attached.

Product flows out of the storage bin and into the mating wide throat opening of the Model 170-BD-30 where the sweeping action of the slowly rotating agitator, across the Discharger’s flat bottom, produces positive product discharge without compaction, attrition and/or segregation. Since all internal areas of the Bin Discharger are active, dead zones do not exist and thus, product stagnation cannot occur anywhere within the unit.

The Model 170-BD-30 features a unique “Discharge Port” that allows the contents of the bin or hopper to be emptied rapidly making it ideally suited for applications requiring frequent product changeover. The “Discharge Port” is normally furnished with either a manual or automatically-operated slide gate valve. Because the Bin Discharger is “self emptying”, total cleanout is quick and easy.
