Context

This customer is specialized in the construction and integration of equipment for the industrial sector. He requested that ISERCO provide bin activators to facilitate the emptying of pet food.

The customer’s order consisted of 2 square steel bin activators, 2500 x 2500 in size. These have rounded corners.

It’s important to note that pet food can emit dust, which can make the atmosphere potentially explosive.

The customer has ordered this type of bin activator for the 4th time.

 

The specific features of these bin activators

 

These bin activators are not part of our standard range. A classic bin activator is conical and can be made of stainless steel, with surface treatment by shot blasting and Sublimotion-process®. They can also be made of steel with shot-blasted surface treatment and a protective anti-rust paint.

These square-section steel bin activators possess the following features:

  • Rounded corners.
  • 64 BB07 suspensions, because these bin activators are large dimensions.
  • EPDM “U” profile sealing strip between counter-flanges.
  • Two special motors are installed to reduce the risk of explosion caused by dust generated during product handling.
  • Earthing lugs to prevent accidental electrocution when near the appliance.
  • A square 15° welded internal baffle.
  • A welded square flange outlet.
  • A 2500×2500 steel silo flange.

These bin activators are painted with anti-corrosion paint. The inside of these units is protected with linseed oil. This offers additional protection against corrosion and protects the surface of the bin activator during transport. Linseed oil acts as an anti-rust agent to protect the steel against corrosion that the presence of moisture can cause.
