Literature

VibraPad Aeration Systems, available in 6-pack, 12-pack, 18-pack, or 24-pack kits with installation hardware, increase the flow of dry bulk materials for reliable and efficient product transfer from hoppers, bins, and silos. They combine variable aeration and vibration to counter bridging, rat-holing, and compacting that can occur during processing and storage. Kits include parts needed for a complete system: controls, piping, plumbing, fittings, hoses, wiring, and valves.

Features and Benefits
  • Metered air aerates and fluidizes material and produces resonating vibratory waves that further aid material flow.
  • Use during transfer to improve flow and during storage to maintain the aerated condition of the material.
  • Detailed instructions and complete kits make installation easy.
  • Rubber pads are shaped to provide excellent sealing against a wide variety of surfaces.
  • Integral check valve displaces air evenly under the boot and eliminates backflow.
  • Operation is unaffected by moisture in material or air supply lines.
  • Standard stainless steel stud
