2-4 Options

The following is a list of options, which your blender may have been equipped with:

Regrind Auger Metering (RAM). Used for feeding difficult regrind materials.

Low Level Sensors. Detects material supply problems before blender runs out.

Remote Touch Screen Interface. Allows control of blender from a second location up to 50

feet (30 meters) away.

Mezzanine & Floor Stands. Supports blenders in mezzanine mount and freestanding

applications.

Take-off Compartments. Allows material to be metered into a vacuum conveying system.

CL-25 Pneumatic Loader for Additives. Compressed air loader to load low percentage

Remote Touch Screen

Note: The Remote Touch Screen option provides a second operator control.

This section describes the optional Remote Touch Screen. It is useful in situations when the

access to the control panel is difficult or limited. This remote control panel may be located up

to 50 cable feet away from the blender control panel. (Note: a signal amplifier may be

required for long distances. Consult factory with actual application.)

The remote interface provides the operator with all the functions of the standard Slide

Gate/Auger blender control panel. The keypad and display are identical to the blender panel.

Every Slide Gate/Auger blender panel includes a remote interface connection, and simply

plugs into the appropriate connector. The remote touch screen is an option and is not

included

with the standard blender.

Pneumatic Slide Gate Below Mixer

The Slide Gate/Auger 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
