No Maintenance Conveying for the Cement Industry
Fox Venturi Eductors
are now widely used throughout the global cement industry to replace or eliminate airlocks, screws conveyors, and bucket elevators to provide
a highly reliable pneumatic conveying.
Dozens of Cement Plants
throughout North America have a ten to twenty year track record of successful installations of Fox Eductors. Fox has made over Ten thousand eductor installations in all industries going back to 1963.
Where are they used?
Fox eductors are used at Cement Plants in four major categories:
- Handling CKD, Cement, Limestone, etc Beneath Dust Collectors
- Injecting Waste and/or Alternative Fuels into Kilns
- Conveying Kiln Spill at up to 1500°F
- Additive Injection - FeSO4, Act'd Carbon, etc.
With no moving parts, a Fox eductor, above right, is the obvious way to convey extremely abrasive, fine materials like cement, aggregate dust, CKD, and alternative fuels. Unlike the airlock, above left, they do not "blow-back" or create leakage that eventually becomes a fugitive dust problem. With no seals or bearings to wear or fail, Fox eductors can operate essentially maintenance-free for years even with extremely fine, extremely abrasive powders.
