Railcar application show above with 1200 VMSAC vibrator
Versatile, safe, durable, and user friendly, our Vacuum Mounted Vibrator series is perfect for applications where permanent installation is not possible.
These vibrators are available in an array of models, size, forces, and frequencies making them ideal for concrete forms, refractories, rail car and truck trailer hoppers, plant bins, other types of hoppers or any application that demands vibrator portability.
In addition to significantly reducing noise, air cushioning in our pneumatic Vibra-Might VMSAC Vibrators, prevents metal-to-metal impact– making them ideal for operation in hazardous areas. This also eliminates expensive damage from manual hammering on bins and hopper walls. These vacuum mount vibrators can handle light to moderate material loads.
The vacuum mounted vibrator uses a one-piece, ductile iron housing and spring-less design which ensures long, effective life. It is also a safe option that eliminates the dangers of climbing into bins and hoppers to aid material flow. Its light weight significantly reduces ergonomic strain due to lifting on the end user.
Benefits Include:
- Can mount to any smooth surface; great on wood or aluminum
- Lightweight and portable
- Pneumatic (air) powered to enable operation in hazardous environments
- Enables easy pinpointing solutions to areas where material flow problems are occurring
- Eliminates destructive and expensive hammering on hoppers
- Single-stage vacuum generator using 1.55 SCFM
- Hand-held controls are easy to use: they include an integrated pressure regulator, a vibrator on/off switch via slide valve, and the vacuum is controlled via mini-ball valve attached to the vacuum generator
Recommended Applications:
- Eliminate clogging, bridging, and sticking in bulk bins and hoppers where noise reduction is an issue
- Excellent option to aid the flow of materials in portable bins and hoppers
- Agitating dust collectors and/or filters to remove material build-up and promote better operation and reduce maintenance costs
- Takes the place of larger, heavier vibratory equipment for rail car applications
- Aid in unloading of portable stainless steel mixing bins in the pharmaceutical industry
