A convenient variation of the Vibranetics Bin Discharger is the Live Bottom Bin. This pre-engineered, pre-assembled unit is particularly suited for new or expanded facilities. Live Bottom Bins are available in a wide range of standard sizes, appropriate for most requirement (see listing below). Custom sizes are also available.

The standard live bottom bin consists of a cylindrical tank that is fitted with a full-size Vibranetics Bin Discharger."Super Seal" is used to seal the discharger to the bin. Other seals are available on request. The drive unit is the same as that used on the stanrad Vibranetics Bin Discharger. The bin can be supplied with a support structure on request.

Available options are the same as for Bin Discharger.

Carrier/Vibranetics^® vibrating bin dischargers provide an efficient means for discharging dry materials from storage bins on a first-in, first-out basis with positive, continuous flow.

The primary function of a vibrating bin discharger is to cause material to flow. It is not a metering device, though often a feeder can accomplish metering. Carrier’s vibrating bin dischargers are proven reliable, with a quiet design and durable construction that is ready for any application.

Features and benefits of Carrier vibrating bin dischargers:

• Standard vibrating bin dischargers range from 2 foot through 15 foot diameter.
• Forged steel isolation hanger arms with rubber bushings for support from above.
• Mounting adapter ring either welded to bin or bolted to a flange.
• Molded neoprene “Super Seal” inlet sock.
• Internal 20 degree pressure cone to transmit energy necessary for material flow.
• 45 degree outer cone constructed of carbon steel.
• Cycle timer for a multitude of cycle ranges from a few seconds to hours.
• Simple, quiet belt drive with standard foot-mounted motor.
• Bin dischargers ship completely assembled and ready to install.
• Discharge directly into a truck or rail car.
• Bin discharger options include liners, virtually any outlet configuration, stainless steel construction, and more.
• Carrier can assist in the selection of feeding equipment below the discharge outlet. Our vibrating feeders are specifically designed for use with bin dischargers.

Another variation of the vibrating bin discharger is the Vibrating Live Bin. The entire unit vibrates rather than just the discharger at the bottom. These units are completely pre-engineered andpre-assembled and are available in a wide range of standard sizes, as well as custom designs. Unlike the Live Bottom Bin, the discharger is built directly into the tank, with no flexible connection between them.

The one-piece unit is capable of meeting stringent sanitary conditions or high toxicity conditions where the flexible connection might prove a souce of contamination or leakage.

To prevent vibrations from being transferred from the bin to the supporting structure or building, Vibranetics Live Bins are isolation-mounted on their support columns by means of elastomer that premits free movement of bin in both verticle and horizintal planes, yet eliminates most of the vibration that might be transmitted through the columns. Vibranetics Live Bins are normally supplied with the same heavy-duty drive unit as the Live Bottom Bins.
