In principle the machine can process loose insulation material aslong as the processing complies with the
intended use of the machine (see chapter Intended use). Other materials may be used after being tested by
the manufacturer.
2)
Up to which insulation thickness, hose length and elevation height can the machine operate
faultlessly?
Depending on the insulation material an elevation height of up to 20 m is possible, with a hose length of up
to 50 m. Different situations at different building sites lead to varying performance data. The densities actual-
ly achieved are the decisive factor for the performance of the machine. For insulation thicknesses of more
than 25 cm it is advisable to use an additional blower, or an amplifier station (can be purchased from x-floc).
3) After how long or how many operating hours is a manufacturer service recommended?
We recommend a routine check every 100 operating hours or once a year. We recommend a service by a
trained service technician at least every 400 operating hours.
4) How long do airlock gasket sets/ packing washers last?
Generally between 50 and 200 operating hours However, the operating life cannot be predicted. A sufficient
airlock outlet pressure is important. The level of wear is dictated by the seal material, insulation material
(moisture content, abrasiveness) and other factors.
5)
How do you set the machine set to get a specific installation density?
The desired density cannot be preset. However, it can be controlled by a combination of air power and air-
lock feed gate adjustment. Fundamentally,
Higher air power results in a higher insulation density
Reducing the airlock feed gate inlet area results in a higher insulation density
Therefore, almost maximum insulation density can be achieved by setting the air output to maximum (100%)
and by almost completely closing the airlock feed gate (level 1).
