av pump

AV Pump is a piece of equipment specially designed for use in pneumatic conveying systems. It uses compressed air as a power source to achieve efficient transmission of materials. AV pumps are particularly suitable for intermittent or continuous powder and granular material transportation tasks. They have the characteristics of simple structure, convenient operation, and low maintenance costs.

Principle

The working principle of the AV pump is based on its internal valve mechanism and the application of compressed air:

Charging stage: In the initial state, the feed port is open, the discharge port is closed, and the warehouse is under normal pressure.
Materials enter the storage chamber of the AV pump through gravity or other auxiliary equipment (such as screw feeder).

Pressurization stage: The feed port is closed, and compressed air is introduced into the space above the storage chamber, causing the pressure in the chamber to gradually increase.
As the pressure increases, the material is compacted and forms columns with a certain density while maintaining good fluidity.
Discharging stage: The discharge port is opened, and the high-pressure gas pushes the materials to move along the conveying pipe until they are all discharged. During this process, the compressed air not only provides pushing force, but also prevents material from clogging.

Purge stage (optional): In order to ensure that the pipeline is unobstructed, sometimes a short purge is performed after discharging to remove the material remaining in the pipeline.

Cycle repetition: After completing a complete filling-pressurizing-discharging cycle, the system automatically resets to the initial state and prepares for the next round of operation.

Features and Advantages

No mechanical moving parts: Reduces fatigue and risk of breakdown, extending service life.

Simple structure: The overall design is simple, easy to install and maintain, and saves space.

Powerful: It can handle many types of materials and is not affected by humidity and slurry. It is especially suitable for fragile or sensitive materials.

High degree of automation: equipped with PLC control system, which can realize operation and reduce manual intervention.

Safe and reliable: Equipped with backup protection mechanisms, such as overload protection, short circuit protection, etc., to ensure the safety of personnel and equipment.

Good environmental performance: closed pipes avoid flying and reduce environmental pollution.

Energy-saving and efficient: only use compressed air when needed, reducing energy consumption.

Usage Scenarios

AV pumps are widely used in all aspects of pneumatic conveying systems, especially where large amounts of powder or granular materials need to be transported over long distances and at high lifts.
