The Vacuum Feeder Can Be Dried Naturally Or in An Oven.
Dec 11, 2025| Debugging and Installation
1. The feeder hopper is usually fixed above the receiving equipment. When the receiving equipment (such as a packaging machine) has a relatively high hopper, an additional bracket is required to fix the vacuum feeder hopper.
2. Connect the inlet to the customer's discharge equipment with a pipe, and connect the vacuum port to the vacuum pump, securing it with a clamp.
3. Connect the power supply.
4. Insert the compressed air pipe into the feeder inlet, adjust the pressure reducing valve to ensure the system pressure remains at 0.6Mpa, and connect the compressed air connector to the compressed air connector of the air cylinder under vacuum according to the connection diagram.
5. Turn on the power, open the door, and then close the three-phase air switch.
6. Increase or decrease the settings via the touchscreen. Use the minus button to set the feeding time to 3-10 seconds and the discharge time to 2-6 seconds.
7. Press the on/off button to turn on the vortex pump. If there is no airflow at the exhaust port, check the direction of the vacuum pump. The motor is reversed. Turn off the power button and then change the phase sequence of the power wiring until the air pump rotates correctly.
8. Press the on/off button to start the vortex pump and begin feeding. Suction and discharge (with compressed air blowing back to the filter simultaneously) constitute one working cycle. The vacuum feeder will automatically cycle until the receiving equipment (the material in the hopper is full).
9. When the material level in the receiving equipment's hopper is below the level switch, the pneumatic valve will automatically change direction, and the system will re-enter the suction and discharge cycle until the hopper is full.
10. During material conveying, a large amount of static electricity will be generated due to friction. To eliminate static electricity, the equipment casing should be reliably grounded.
11. The vacuum feeder uses a new type of microporous membrane filter, which greatly improves the feeding capacity and service life of the machine. Proper cleaning of the microporous membrane filter is very important for the performance of the vacuum feeder. When cleaning the microporous membrane filter rod, we recommend following these steps:
1) Blow off dust from the surface of the filter rod using compressed air.
2) Rinse the surface of the filter rod with hot water no hotter than 80°C, or soak it for a period of time, then clean the surface of the filter rod with a soft brush. Note that you should not use a hard brush to clean the surface of the filter rod, as this will damage the surface, cause fuzzing, and affect the accuracy of the filter rod.
3) The filter can be air-dried naturally or dried in an oven. The oven temperature should not exceed 50°C. Only completely dry filters should be returned to the machine for use.
