Description
Description
An aeration pad, also known as an air pad, air diffuser, or fluidization pad, is a device used to promote the flow of dry bulk materials in bins, silos, hoppers, and other storage vessels. Aeration pads are typically installed at the bottom or sides of these vessels and work by introducing low-pressure air into the stored material, reducing friction between particles and allowing the material to flow more easily. Aeration pads are widely used in industries that handle bulk materials, such as food processing, pharmaceuticals, cement, chemicals, and plastics.
Key Features:
-
Fluidization: Aeration pads use air to fluidize solid materials, reducing inter-particle friction and allowing the material to flow more easily. This process is crucial for materials prone to bridging, rat-holing, or compaction.
-
Versatility: Aeration pads can be used for a wide range of dry bulk materials, including powders, granules, pellets, and more.
-
Easy Installation: Aeration pads are typically designed for easy installation and can be retrofitted to existing equipment. They are usually mounted on the walls or bottoms of bins, silos, or hoppers.
-
Low Maintenance: Aeration pads have few moving parts, resulting in minimal maintenance requirements. Many designs are self-cleaning, further reducing the need for maintenance.
-
Improved Material Flow: Aeration pads help prevent material buildup, arching, and flow blockages, ensuring consistent and efficient material discharge.
-
Dust Reduction: By preventing material buildup, aeration pads reduce the risk of dust generation during material handling.
Aeration pads are an essential tool for industries dealing with bulk materials, helping improve material flow, reduce dust generation, and prevent costly flow blockages. Their versatility, ease of installation, and low maintenance requirements make them a popular choice for various applications.
