HR45: Designed for various environments, including plastics recycling facilities, this Pelletron deduster features patent pending half-round cone technology. With material of average bulk density, such as polyethylene, polyethylene terephthalate, polycarbonate, polymethyl methacrylate and polyamide, it can handle up to 10,000 pounds per hour of pellets or regrind.
What's new? The deduster, which Pelletron planned to show this month in Orlando, Florida, at NPE2018, the largest trade show for the plastics industry in the U.S. It replaces Pelletron's XP45 deduster.
Benefits: Power-consumption reduction, lowered equipment costs and high-efficiency cleaning performance. Compared with the XP45, the compact HR45 uses smaller filters and 40 percent less energy. It's also smaller and employs an automatic inlet flow-control feature that eliminates the need for a rotary valve to control flow rates.
