  • System for Pneumatically Conveying Particulate Material
    Publication number: 20100040421
    Abstract: An apparatus for pneumatically conveying particulate material from a container to an application site includes a mill that is operative to reduce the particle size of the material. The apparatus further includes a blower. Pneumatic lines are configured to connect the blower pneumatically with the application site through the container to convey material-laden air from the container to the application site. The pneumatic lines are configured for connection in alternative milling and non-milling arrangements.
    Type: Application
    Filed: October 6, 2009
    Publication date: February 18, 2010

  • System For Pneumatically Conveying Particulate Material
    Publication number: 20080121743
    Abstract: An apparatus for pneumatically conveying particulate material to an application site includes a mill that is operative to reduce the particle size of the material. The mill has a specified air flow capacity. The apparatus further includes a container for the particulate material, an air lock that discharges the particulate material from the containers and a blower. The blower has a specified air flow output greater than the air flow capacity of the mill.
