SAI – PUMP FOR SPENT GRAIN TRANSPORT

EFFICIENT, RELIABLE AND COST-EFFECTIVE SPENT GRAIN CONVEYING

Smart Air Injection (SAI) is a customized package unit with many varied applications. The innovative combination of food waste progressive cavity pump and compressed air conveying results in a low-pressure level in the conveying pipeline. This results in an extended service life and reduced investment and operating costs. In the food industry, SAI conveys hop and malt spent grains through the use of controlled, compressed air pulses.

Conveying Capacity

0.5–30 m³/h

2–132 US gpm

Pressure

≤ 4 bar

≤ 60 psi

ENERGY-EFFICIENT
Savings of up to 75% in energy due to a reduction of compressed air consumption by up to 90% compared to conventional conveying solutions

INCREASED PROCESS EFFICIENCY
Reduced mash-out times (up to 60%) due to high flexibility and efficiency for varying spent grain's moisture-content

INCREASED SERVICE LIFE
Reduced risk to pipework wear due to pneumatic transport at moderate speed, saving costs for repair and replacement

MAINTAIN IN PLACE
Easy Maintenance Concept: Maintenance in Place possible - Smart Conveying Technology for rotor/stator replacement with minimal space requirements in less than one hour

FOR LONG DISTANCES AND HEIGHT DIFFERENCES
Long transport distances of up to 1,000 meters and easily overcomes changes in direction and differences in height

EASY TO CONTROL
Control and monitoring of all functions via the SAI controller and easy integration into all automation and control systems
