1-12 Pneumatic Slide Gate Below Mixer (Optional)
The SGB blending system can be equipped with an optional pneumatic slide gate
below the mixing chamber. The gate is used in applications when the blender is
mounted above a large hopper, or for gaylord filling, etc. This gate holds the
material in the mixing section, to ensure that it is properly mixed. Control of the
mixer function is described below, and is determined by the position of the “knife
gate switch” located on the side of the back control panel.
