HOW TO SELECT PROPER VIBRATOR - IN THREE EASY STEPS - A. FIND NEEDED VIBRATOR FORCE FOR YOUR APPLICATION. B. FIND AVAILABLE VIBRATOR MODELS. C. SELECT ELECTRIC, PNEUMATIC OR HYDRAULIC OPERATION. \. FIND NEEDED VIBRATOR CENTRIFUGAL FORCE (IMPACT) FOR YOUR APPLICATION. 1. BINS, HOPPERS, To move the material in a bin or hopper. the friction bet When the weight has been caleulated, divide by 10. the ‘ween the material and the bin skin nas to be broken figure you get is the lorve or impact needed on your ‘Once this +5 done the material cannot cing to the bin uibrator hs. Coatiaue with Para. 8 sides and it will flow out throu vibrator force needed to accom all applications, very simply cal Calculate the weight of the material the transition oF sloping part ot the bin, Normally this 1s the only place he discharge. The For example: The conical part ofa 25 ton bin cantains 7000 tbs this, is for 80% of Divide 7000 by 10, you need a vibrator with 700 Ibs, of conte ted as follows: lugal force or impact. Find suitable viorator under Para 8. NOTE: Additional considerations when sizing vibrator to bins where the friction between the material and the bin sides has to be broken. - DO NOT CALCULATE THE 1, I bin side angle ts below 30°, select next TOTAL WEIGHT. ONLY WHAT IS IN THE TRANSITION larger vibrato PART 21 bin thickness ts extra heavy (see table For CONICAL BINS, calculate as follows: .261 x din? x under section B), select next larger vibrator helght x material density in Ibs/eu, ft 3. On real sticky and hard to move materials, it is better to use two (2) small vibrators in For RECTANGULAR BINS, length x width, x height x 1/3 x material density 2. VIBRATING TABLES. A. PACKING MATERIAL Dense materials respond best to high frequency vibra For packing oF setting mmatertas, use a vibrator with an tion (3600 RPM or more) while light, Hlulty or takey impact force of (1.5) o 2 times larger than the weight of materials respond best to low frequency vibration (1800 the material plus container. Find suitable vibrator under RPM or less). Para. 8 3. VIBRATING SCREENS, Rule of thumb: For self cleaning screen use a vibrator 3600 YPM (vibrations per minute), powdery and dry with 2 centrifugal force (impact four (4) times the weight materials, 1800 VPM, sticky and wet materias, over of the materia plus the weight of the screen 3600 VPM NOTE: Coarse and lumpy materials respond best to 4, CONSOLIDATING CONCRETE. Rule of thumb: For 3" "slump" concrete use a vibrator NOTE: FOR ADDITIONAL SIZING INFORMATION, SEE with the same force (impact) as the weight of concrete Page 31 & 32tor suitable brackety. and form. For 1 - 2° stump concrete, an additional 30, Find suitable vibrator under Para. B. ‘50% impact is needed. For dry mixes (0 - slump) add 100° 200% For Additional Information please Contact. a CONCRETE PLANTS,ING. George Eric Hoenig Ph 585-235-0660 Emil Garlewicz Ph 973-584-9661 Dave Knox .
