Piab Turbine Vibrator GT-10 CPL
The Piab Turbine Vibrator GT-10 CPL improves material discharge in piFLOW® vacuum conveyors by preventing bridging and material build-up. The vibration ensures faster and more consistent discharge, optimising throughput and reducing cycle time.
The unit can be controlled via electrical or pneumatic control systems, allowing automatic start and stop during conveying cycles. It is particularly suited for bridging powders in food, pharmaceutical, chemical, and battery manufacturing applications.
Piab Turbine Vibrator With Solenoid
The turbine vibrator with integrated solenoid valve is developed for piFLOW®p SMART systems and provides efficient discharge of difficult or bridging materials. The vibrator is software-controlled, enabling precise start and stop functionality.
With a rated frequency of 27,500 to 37,500 rpm and centrifugal force ranging from 840 to 2400 N, it delivers powerful and stable vibration to optimise material flow and maximise conveying throughput.
Piab Valve 3/2 G1/8" PS NC
The 3/2 valve is designed for fully pneumatic vacuum conveying systems. Its pneumatic construction eliminates electrical ignition sources and simplifies validation in regulated environments.
The valve supports safe and reliable control of conveying functions in ATEX-related applications and industrial production environments requiring high operational stability.
Piab Pipeline Emptying Units 32/38/51
The Pipeline Emptying Unit, PLEU, is recommended when high vertical lifts are included in the conveying line. It introduces venting air to empty vertical pipe sections when the pump switches off during each conveying cycle.
This prevents material from falling back and blocking the line, allowing the next conveying cycle to start smoothly. An air inlet filter can be installed to prevent cross-contamination and material leakage.
The unit is electrically controlled and compatible with electrical control systems. Product contact surfaces are electropolished to Ra ≤ 0.8 and manufactured in ASTM 316L stainless steel, making it suitable for hygienic applications in food, pharmaceutical, and chemical industries. The series is available in five variants.
Piab Pneumatic Electrical Converter
The pneumatic electrical converter transforms a pneumatic signal into a 24V DC electrical signal. It can be used together with a change-over valve for electromechanical pumps, enabling integration between pneumatic and electrical components within vacuum conveying systems.
This solution supports flexible system configuration and reliable signal transmission in automated production environments.
Piab Actuating Valve CPL
The Piab Actuating Valve CPL is used in fully pneumatic control systems to ensure reliable actuation of conveying functions. The pneumatic design eliminates electrical components, reducing ignition risks in dust-sensitive environments.
It is widely used in food, pharmaceutical, and chemical production where robust operation and simplified validation processes are required.
