Telescopic Chute (TC)
PEBCO® Telescopic Chutes are ideal for outdoor stockpiling or ship loading for their ability to contain product during freefall and accommodate a variety of application sizes and flow rates.
- • Typically used for outdoor stockpiling of material or to load ships or barges
- • Contains product during freefall from conveyor to pile, minimizing wind-blown dust
- • Construction can be in any number of sections, diameters, or lengths to accommodate a variety of applications and huge range of flow rates
- • Usual construction is carbon steel, abrasion resistant steel, and stainless
- • Loose running clearances prevent binding of tubes due to material buildup
- • Heavy rings on both ends reinforce each end of the tube and insure concentricity
- • Tube diameters increase down the chute eliminating the possibility of plugging
- • Tivar® tubes are available where weight or sticky products are a concern
Options
- • Tube-to-tube seals reduce dusting, particularly with Tivar®
- • Drop-in inlet tube liner can dramatically increase chute life
- • Trimming spoons distribute material radially from centerline
- • Gimbals allow the chute to pivot when used on elevating conveyor booms
- • Remote mount or integral winches include electrically released, mechanically applied brake
- • Spray rings provide large volumes of water to reduce dust at the pile
- • Fog spray headers by The Raring Corp encapsulate dust at the pile
- • End of travel, ultimate-up, and slack cable limit switches provide feedback
- • Tilt probe(s) sense material at the chute outlet
- • Plugged chute sensors protect the system
- • Auto-Raise and Auto-Lower control panels
- • Controls
