Lean Phase Pneumatic Conveying System

Download Full Resolution Image

Two important features of the Lean Phase Conveying Design combine to provide a Fluidizing conveying technique which in turn reduces air pressure requirements. Pressure requirement is Low.

Lean phase pressure system utilizes low pressure, high volume (cfm) Air / Gas as the motive force to transfer powder or granular bulk solid through a pipeline at High velocity.

Two types of Lean Phase conveying System: Pressure Type, Vacuum Type

Salient Features

  • Use low pressure, high volume gas & high velocity for fluidizing to transfer powder or granular bulk solids up to capacity 50TPH.

  • Solid to air ratio ( Kg solid / Kg air) less than 10

  • For lean phase pressure system conveying length is up to 300mt. approx.

  • For lean phase vacuum system conveying length is up to 50mt approx.

  • Systems use a positive displacement blower (Required press. <1bar) to develop the required motive force.

  • Rotary Valve & Ventury can be used as feeder in lean phase conveying system.

  • Lean phase systems are most used on those material which are Non-abrasive, Non-fragile, light density (typical <800kg/m3).

  • Dust Free Operation.
