Available in four sizes and capacities, Acrison Bin Vent Filters have been designed for use with the supply hoppers associated with Acrison metering equipment to prohibit either positive or negative pressure from occurring within the hoppers to which they attach during normal operation. In particular, Bin Vent Filters are commonly furnished with the integral hoppers of Acrison’s various model ‘Weight-Loss’ Weigh Feeders.
The selection of the proper size Bin Vent Filter is dependent on the volume of the hopper upon which it will be used in conjunction with refill parameters. In most applications, a Bin Vent Filter mounts directly on the cover of an Acrison ‘Weight-Loss’ Weigh Feeder or on the cover of a storage hopper supplied by Acrison. However, a Bin Vent Filter may also be mounted directly above or adjacent to a hopper.
The outlet of the Bin Vent Filter is open, allowing air to unidirectionally pass through its cartridge filter(s) as process conditions dictate. It does not utilize a blower to exhaust air. During refill of a hopper, the displaced air (often dust-laden) enters the Bin Vent Filter, passing through its filter(s) where dust/air separation occurs. Dust particulate is trapped on the outside surface of the filter cartridge(s), allowing only clean air to pass through.
