Patented EXTRABEND Pipe Elbows offer a substantially innovative geometry suitable aiming at wear reduction during operation in all types of dilute phase pneumatic conveying systems.The body cavity next to the point of diversion generates an internal turbulence of the material which protects the pipe elbow from wear caused by the material travelling through the duct. Features SINT engineering polymer-cast body design Different qualities of SINT engineering polymer available for handling plastic pellets, granules, sand or fine, abrasive or chemically highly aggressive powders PN-type connecting flanges Benefits Elasticity of SINT ensures conveying of material without particle breakdown, grinding or jamming Considerable reduction of flow resistance, consequently energy saving pneumatic conveying Shifting of the wear zone into the bulk material cushion due to elasticity of SINT engineering polymer Eco-friendly Wear protection through optimised body thickness and formation of a material buffer cushion during dense phase conveying Low cost for installation, pipeline support and installation thanks to compact design Minimised pressure drop Low wear on conveying pipe No risk of clogging Self-cleaning Lightweight and durable Minimum maintenance Ex-stock delivery No risk of mechanical degradation or biochemical decomposition of the material (wide impact zone) PATENTED Higher resistance to wear than traditional steel pipe elbows Particularly suitable for retrofitting Reduced noise level Easy disposal For both vacuum and positive pressure conveying and for low density dilute phase pneumatic conveying No product contamination Options Connecting spigot for existing ducts Food-grade version (FDA-approved)
