Here’s how the system works:
Dirty coolant from your machines is returned to the dragout tank, where large, heavy particles settle out by gravity. A moving drag flight conveyor sweeps the tank bottom, carries these particles out of the dragout tank and deposits them in a swarf container, leaving coolant free of any large particles. The conveyor has three important features to insure trouble-free operation:
• An adjustable timer provides exact control (continuous or intermittent) to suit any application.
• A unique, self-cleaning wiper blade discharges all contaminants into a swarf cart. No particles can be returned to the settling tank.
• A built-in safety clutch automatically actuates a switch, stopping the conveyor and energizing a trouble light if extremely heavy resistance is encountered by the conveyor.
Recommended Use: As a central coolant system. For use with single or multiple machine tools generating large quantities of swarf.
