Unloads bulk cement from bottom hatches of cement hopper cars (in case it is not possible to install an intermediate bin it in the under-rail space) and feeding it to railroad cement storages and cement trucks.
The unit consists of a mobile tray with two horizontal screw conveyors ø125mm and an inclined screw feeder ø273mm for transporting cement away from the car; a pneumatic screw hoist mounted on a dolly, an air processing system (moisture and oil separators, pressure reducing valves, etc.) and a control station.
Pneumatic screw hoist SB-245 feeds cement to railroad cement storages or service bins of a concrete-mixing plant located within 50 meters horizontally from a hopper car unloading point at a maximum lifting height of 35 m.
