Trolley Mounted Powder Transfer Machine by DK Systems offer a vacuum dense-phase system, the Powder Transfer System (PTS) developed and patented by Machine India. It is a highly effective method for transferring and dispensing both dry and wet powders and granules in a safe and contained manner. Whilst there are many PTS’s on the market Machine India’s system has been unrivalled. Its unique filtration concept a flat filter membrane makes it the only vacuum dense-phase system that functions at optimum levels for each cycle currently on offer, differentiating it from the run of the mill systems on the market.
The PTS is a pneumatic conveying system using both vacuum and pressure without relying on gravity allowing to move powders as if they were liquid eliminating the need for multi floor processes. The system is ideal for transferring highly explosive powders and the transfer of toxic and hygroscopic materials. The PTS eliminates oxygen from the powder and the system is separated by a physical barrier from the reactor to avoid fires and explosions when in operation providing a safe and reliable method for powder transfer. The PTS is directly installed on the receiving vessel, which it can isolate during the loading phase. One of the major advantages of this technology is that it makes it possible to separate the air from the powder and to keep the receiving vessel inert while loading the powder by using, for example, nitrogen to discharge the PTS chamber. It is, therefore, possible to safely charge powder into a reactor, which contains solvents or is pressurized, without risking explosions or dangerous gas leaks.
