The RN Series Vacuum Receiver, from Process Control, is part of a complete vacuum conveying system for in-plant distribution or machine/blender loading. When coupled with a vacuum pump and sequencing panel (both priced separately), the RN Series provides automatic loading of pellet materials.

The RN Series Vacuum Receiver is designed to be mounted at any point where resin delivery is needed. As the station calls out for a load, a sequencing panel sends a signal to the RN to open its sequencing valve and pull vacuum on this receiver. The material is pulled from the connected source until the fill cycle is complete. Then, the material is dumped from the receiver immediately (by means of a flapper valve) or held for future use (by a positive shutoff valve).

A built-in screen prevents carry-over of pellet material back to the vacuum pump. For materials which have significant fines and dust, an optional dust collector should be purchased to reduce maintenance and protect the vacuum pump.

The RN Series Vacuum Receiver is low-maintenance: no valves come into contact with conveyed material and no tools are needed for pellet retaining screen changes.
