Wet-In-Place (WIP) functionality

Piab is to introduce the new Wet-In-Place option for their premium vacuum conveyor range at the PPMA Show 2017.

Ensuring a safer working environment in food and pharmaceutical processing plants, Wet-In-Place (WIP) functionality has been added to Piab’s popular piFLOWp vacuum conveyors.

The water sprayed by the WIP nozzles will wet any dust from food or pharmaceutical materials left in conveyors, stopping it from escaping into the air where it can be inhaled by processing staff during maintenance or cleaning procedures. By wetting potentially harmful leftover material before the equipment is opened for cleaning, the spray nozzles ensure that any such dust stays Wet-In-Place until it can be safely removed.

For maximum performance and coverage, and to make sure as much material as possible is captured as quickly as possible, up to three spray modules can be ordered with/retrofitted to each conveyor.

The piFLOWp conveyor for powder and bulk materials is designed to perfectly match the stringent demands for operational safety and hygiene within the food and pharmaceutical industries.

Regardless of the application, piFLOW® vacuum conveyors from Piab meet the demands of the global food and pharmaceutical industries.
