1-11-1 Material Supply Hoppers The material supply hoppers are located on top of the blender frame. These hoppers store a supply of material for the individual metering devices. They are sized based on the total throughput of the blender. The SGB blending system does not include any level indication devices on the unit. Optional low-level sensors are available. The blender controller will alarm if it runs out of material while trying to make a batch, but low-level sensors will a

1-11-2 Slide Gate Metering Assemblies Air operated slide gates are provided to meter the majority of pellet ingredients on the SGB blender. 1 Important! The metering range assumes /8” diameter free-flowing plastic pellets weighing approximately 35 lbs./cu. ft. This is meant to be an approximate sizing recommendation and can vary with different bulk density resins, pellet configuration, etc. A stroke limiter (included) can be installed on the metering gates to limit their tr

Each of the diamond gate air cylinders is actuated by a solenoid valve, which are controlled by the blender. When the solenoid valve is energized, it opens the metering valve cylinder. When the solenoid valve is de-energized, it closes the metering valve cylinder. If the power is interrupted to the blender, the metering valves will return to the closed position, to prevent material from over-filling the weigh hopper/mix chamber. Important! If the blender is in metering mode

1-11-3 Weigh Hopper The weigh hopper on the SGB blender is used to weigh each batch of material, and includes an air-operated discharge valve. After the batch is weighed and the level sensor in the lower mix section is uncovered, the valve will open and discharge the batch into the mixer with the existing blended material. The discharge valve is also provided with a quick disconnect so the weigh hopper can be removed for cleaning. On an SGB blender, the weigh hopper rests on eac

1-11-4 Weigh Hopper Discharge Valve The weigh hopper discharge valve holds the material until it is dumped into the mixing section. The cylinder is actuated by a solenoid in the valve stack on the rear of the blender. In looking at the pneumatic circuit, you can see that the air regulator controls the flow of air to the valve stack. When the weigh hopper discharge cylinder solenoid valve is not electrically energized, it will provide air pressure to the air cylinder and hold t
