Air Conveyors Ring-Vac™ Pneumatic Conveying System

Air Conveyors Ring-Vac™ Pneumatic Conveying System has virtually no moving parts, convey's air at high rates and long distances. Utilizing compressed air for a powerful, efficient venturi action along its length in a compact design for high capacity conveying over large distances.

Air Conveyors Ring-Vac™ Pneumatic Conveying System is available in both coated aluminum or high temperature stainless steel. Simply clamp a standard hose size to each end of the Ring-Vac™ to create this high energy conveying system. No moving parts for maintenance free operation with capacity and flow controlled with a pressure regulator.

Air Conveyors Ring-Vac™ Pneumatic Conveying System is available in 1" (25mm), 1-1/4" (32mm), 1-1/2" (38mm), 2" (51mm), 2-1/2" (64mm), and 3" (76mm) sizes. Any size beyond that can be prohibitive for most applications due to high compressed air requirements.

In addition, beyond 3", the vacuum ability begins to drop significantly except for highly intermittent applications. For applications beyond 3", a blower system often becomes far more economical except in a rare number of possible applications. However, larger size versions are available if required as well as special sizes.

Coated aluminum and high temperature stainless steel Ring-Vac™ Air Conveyor can convey all types of solids in large volumes over great distances with no moving parts.

Available in standard and threaded versions for regular and high temperature applications.

Air Conveyors Ring-Vac™ Pneumatic Conveying System Features

  • Made of an coated aluminum body with no moving parts. High temperature stainless steel models are available for high temperature and corrosive applications.
  • Standard sizes to fit standard hose diameter for easy clamping. Threaded versions connect easily to regular pipe thread: 1" (25mm), 1-1/4" (32mm), 1-1/2" (38mm), 2" (51mm), 2-1/2" (64mm), and 3" (76mm). Special sizes can be manufactured if required.
  • Utilizing a pressure regulator will control the flow material.
  • Instant ON/OFF with no moving parts, no electricity or explosion hazard.

Air Conveyors Ring-Vac™ Pneumatic Conveying System Benefits

Air Conveyors - Ring-Vac™ Pneumatic Conveying System
  • Longer life in difficult environments than competitive models.
  • Ease of use.
  • Simple and easy control of material flow.
  • Maintenance free operation.

Air Conveyors Ring-Vac™ Specifications

Air Conveyors Ring-Vac™ Pneumatic Conveying System are available in coated aluminum and in high temperature stainless steel for high temperature applications.
Note: All our stainless steel high temperature Ring-Vac units are rated to 1200ºF (649ºC)

Special materials can be utilized for unique applications. If greater conveying force is required the conveying “generator” can be machined for higher capacities.
