OPERATOR’S MANUAL
Airline Seals
To maintain the intended pressure/vacuum levels on each side of the airlock to achieve smooth
and high capacity product conveyance, the airlines must be well sealed. Each joint in the airline
of a pneumatic conveying system is equipped with a seal.
To check the condition of the airline seals, proceed as follows:
1. Clear the area of bystanders, especially small children.
2. During normal operation, monitor and inspect the airline joints of the airlock for any
apparent leaks, listen for any hissing, whistling or other signs of leaking.
3. Check the condition of the inlet seal as follows:
a. With reference to the auxiliary equipment’s operator’s manual, remove any
components connected to the airlock inlet.
b. Visually inspect the seal, looking for any nicks, tears, abraded areas, excessive
wear, or accumulation of dirt, dust or debris.

c. Clean or replace the seal as required.
d. Reinstall any components that were removed and ensure all guards are installed
and secured.
