Vacuum Conveyor type HopperVac is a combined vacuum transfer, storage, and dosing system designed for powders and granules in pharmaceutical and chemical applications. Its increased internal capacity allows temporary material accumulation for controlled downstream feeding.
The HopperVac operates on the standard vacuum conveying principle and can be powered by electric or liquid ring pumps or a centralized vacuum system. Material is aspirated into the conveyor body and discharged through a butterfly or pneumatic rotary valve for precise flow control, with all functions managed via a control console.
Manufactured entirely in AISI 316L stainless steel, HopperVac features a residue-free internal design and is available with an optional CIP system for in-place automatic cleaning and rapid restart. The system complies with cGMP, FDA, UNI EN ISO, ATEX, and Machinery Directives, ensuring safe, hygienic, and reliable operation in closed-process powder handling lines.
