OPERATOR’S MANUAL
In the drop-thru model, as seen in
Figure 2-3
, a pressurized stream of air enters the product
collection device, commonly a pan or U-trough style. As the filled pockets rotate to the bottom,
the product falls into the collection device, entering the pressurized air stream, and is carried
through the conveying lines connected to the collection device. The motion of the discharged
product is parallel to the tangential direction of motion of the rotor blade tip at the bottom of the
airlock. For example, when viewed from the driven end of the airlock, the product would move
from left to right through the collection device with the standard counter-clockwise rotor rotation.
With a collection device and pressurized air stream connected to the outlet side of the airlock,
the inlet side will function under vacuum or atmospheric pressure.
