6.2 Principle of Operation
The AS 200 tap works with a horizontal circular motion of the sieve stack. At the same time,
vertical tapping impulses are transferred to the sieve stack by means of a tapping arm. With the
circular motion and tapping impulses independent of the mains voltage, the worldwide
comparability of the sieving process is ensured. According to relevant standards, 280
revolutions and 150 impulses per minute are predefined in the Tap Sieve Shaker and cannot be
modified. The sieving time is digitally adjustable.
