Industrial Applications

Serves confined DRI kiln dust discharge, blast furnace stock house feeding, and duct dust tapping. Side entry design fits the congested layouts typical of steel and sponge iron plants.
Application 1

Confined DRI Kiln Dust Discharge

Feeds DRI kiln dust from horizontal conveyors in tight spaces around rotary kilns, providing airlock sealing where vertical drop-through installation is impossible.
Application 2

Blast Furnace Stock House Feed

Meters iron ore fines and flux from horizontal screw conveyors into pneumatic lines in the congested blast furnace stock house area.
Application 3

Steel Mill Duct Dust Tapping

Extracts collected dust from horizontal off-gas duct tapping points, fitting into the confined spaces between steel mill gas cleaning equipment.
