Chapter 2: Functional Description
2-1 Introduction
SS/CS Series hopper loaders economically and efficiently load free-flowing pellets or granular
materials from supply containers into machine bins or other receivers. They are a modular,
stainless steel component design using significant operational advantages. Their engineered
construction permits easier cleaning and maintenance, and they can be quickly and easily
reconfigured to accommodate future production requirements. Simple electrical and
compressed air connections are all that’s needed for operation; central vacuum systems are not
necessary.
SSL/CSL Series hopper loaders use an integral-mount three-stage centrifugal motor with a
quick-disconnect plug power cord. The hopper-mounted junction box is pre-wired to the field-
mounted 115/1/60 control box. The SSL/CSL Series features a high-flow blowback valve to
enhance cleaning its acrylic/mesh flat filter, providing excellent filtration of conveying air.
SSIL/CSIL Series sight glass hopper loaders have the features of the SSL/CSL Series hopper
loader, but include a high-visibility Pyrex™ sight glass for easy monitoring of material load/
discharge cycles. The sight glass assembly is equipped with an adjustable proximity sensor to
ensure full material discharge on each cycle. Like the SSL/CSL Series hopper loader,
SSIL/CSIL Series hopper loaders feature a quick-release design; no tools are needed to
remove the hopper cover or the sight glass.
