Light Duty Line Vac™

An effective way to convey small volumes of material over short distances!

The low cost Model 130200 2″ (51mm) Light Duty Line Vac conveys fibres to fill pillows, stuffed animals, diapers, etc.

What Is The Light Duty Line Vac?

EXAIR’s Light Duty Line Vac is the ideal way to convey small volumes of materials over short distances. Like the Line Vac, the Light Duty Line Vac converts an ordinary hose or tube into a conveyor for scrap, trim and bulk materials.

When lower throughputs at short distances are desired, the Light Duty Line Vac is a good choice. This simplified design utilises a two-part threaded construction to provide effective conveying at a lower cost. Air consumption is reduced to a volume appropriate for moving small volumes of material at short distances. Conveying rates are easy to control by regulating the compressed air supply pressure.

The Light Duty Line Vac features inlet and outlet diameters common to hose and tube sizes. Eight sizes for diameters from 3/4″ to 6″ (19mm to 152mm) are available. Standard construction is aluminium. No moving parts or electricity assures maintenance free operation.

If higher conveying rates or mounting brackets are desired and for corrosion resistant stainless steel models that are suitable for high temperature and food service, please see our Line Vac models.

How The Light Duty Line Vac Works

Compressed air flows through the inlet (1) into an annular plenum chamber (2). It is then injected into the throat through directed nozzles (3). These jets of air create a vacuum at the intake (4) which draws material in and accelerates it through the unit (5) for conveying over vertical or horizontal distances.

Warning : Do not use EXAIR Line Vacs with any material that can become an explosive mixture.

Line Vac Drum Cover

EXAIR’s fine mesh non-woven Drum Cover is built to fit over the top of 205 or 60 litre drums. The breathable material allows the air from a Line Vac air operated conveyor to circulate, whether moving material in or out of the drum. The cover prevents contamination of your material and keeps material from escaping the drum, which keeps your work environment cleaner and safer.

Since it is fabricated to fit 205 or 60 litre drums, it is the simplest of solutions when needing a containment vessel for your transferred scrap, trim, waste, parts, chips or pellets.

It is suitable for Line Vac conveyance hoses from ¾” (19mm) through 3.4” (86.4mm) outside diameters and comes complete with hose clamps and a durable spring buckle strap for quick and easy installation.

Accessories

Filters, Regulators, Valves & More

With proper filtration of dirt, moisture and oil from the compressed air supply, EXAIR compressed air products will operate for years with no maintenance required. Use a 5 micron or smaller filter separator on the compressed air supply. To prevent problems associated with oil, use a 0.03 micron or smaller oil removal filter on the compressed air supply. Pressure regulators permit easy selection of the operating pressure, providing infinite control of flow, force and air consumption.
