This device instantly injects compressed air that has been stored under pressure into powders and granular materials blocked in large tanks or silos, breaking the blocked powder and granular materials with explosive force. Manually eliminating blockages in tanks and silos is dangerous and may cause personal injury. Twin Blaster replaces these dangerous tasks with the push of a button, allowing you to solve the problem safely and with peace of mind.
1．When compressed air is supplied using a three-way valve, the mushroom valve is pushed to the exhaust port.
2．The compressed air passing through the valve pushes the piston towards the discharge port.
3．The piston is pushed to its limit and blocks the discharge port, and the compressed air is charged into the tank through the tube.
4．Charging is complete when the supply pressure equals the pressure inside the tank.
5．When the three-way valve is switched, the compressed air inside the umbrella valve and piston is exhausted, drawn to the opposite side, and the compressed air in the tank is instantly ejected from the discharge port.
The same operation is performed on the opposite side.
The video of working principle.
The device alternately blasts out air from nozzles on both sides, effectively breaking up layers in two locations, resulting in a synergistic effect. It has been used in ready-mix concrete plants, precast factories, and dam site plant silos.
Twin Blaster performs the function of two units in one, enabling significant cost savings when multiple units are used. In addition, its compact design reduces the number of units required for installation, minimizing setup costs. Also, fewer units lead to lower maintenance costs, contributing to overall operational efficiency.
Solving blockages inside tanks and silos had been done manually by operators, but it carries risks and easy to cause accident and personal injury. To prevent such risks, the blaster is widely adopted in many sites these days.
Using the mushroom valve system, injection power can be adjusted by changing supply air pressure.
The consumable parts inside the valve can be replaced on-site, improving maintainability.
The automatic control type allows manual operation, automatic single cycle operation and automatic contunuous operation by the select switch, enabling user to run the blaster according to the blockage condition.

2.2 kW compressor will be sufficient for using it.
※Please use a compressor with a discharge air volume of 200 L/min (ANR) or more (1.5 kW or higher).
In case of using a compressor with a discharge air volume of less than 200 L/min (ANR), connect a receiver tank of 10 L or more directly before the three-way solenoid valve.
