Description
SUCTION TURBINE
The suction turbine with large diameter (450 mm) guarantees considerable suction capacity. In addition, both the suction hose and the discharge pipe have a 200 mm diameter, ensuring easy pass-through of the vacuumed material and practically excluding blockage. The cover on the suction turbine can be replaced in case of wear. The suction turbine is lined with rubber to dampen the thumping sound made by the vacuumed material.
SOUND-DAMPING TURBINE WALL
Every leaf or stone that is sucked up moves with the airflow through the suction hose until it hits the impeller. Centrifugal force throws everything against the wall of the turbine where it then follows the contours of the volute housing before ending up in the discharge hose. The turbine wall, therefore, acts as a type of drum that generates a lot of noise. However, ELIET have been able to efficiently absorb the noise from each impact by fitting a suitable rubber lining around the turbine.
TRANSPARENT SUCTION HOSE
The ELIET Truckloader is supplied factory fitted with a transparent flexible vacuum suction hose. The highly flexible suction hose measures 3.5 metres and is transparent. The suction mouth rests on a swivel caster, making it unnecessary to hold it up constantly. The light and transparent suction hose does not hinder the movement freedom and ensures you can immediately locate and remove obstructions in the hose. A special quick connect system makes for easy disconnection of the hose from the machine. When doing so, the associated safety device immediately switches off the engine.
Alternatively, one can opt for an “EasyhandleTM”: a suction mouth with two swivel casters and a moveable seat, providing the operator with even greater comfort. A support arm at 1.5 metres on the suction hose prevents it from dragging on the surface, eliminating any corresponding wear.
PROPELLER
The propeller is attached to the crankshaft by means of a conical drill socket, making for easy dismounting.
GRIPS
Two sturdy grips enable two people to lift the machine and hook it onto the truck.
360° SWIVELLING DISCHARGE HOSE
The discharge hose with directional louvre has a diameter of 200 mm, just like the suction hose, which makes obstructions virtually impossible. The articulated hose made from welded wear-resistant steel components can swivel through 360°. The nylon pivot point is self-lubricating, so it never becomes blocked by dirt or rust.
SUPPORTS
The supports by which the machine is attached to the truck have adjustable feet with rubber soles.
DIRECTIONAL LOUVRE
The end of the discharge hose is equipped with a deflector flap in order to completely fill the loading space of a lorry. This flap can be adjusted to any angle. The shape of the flap ensures that the airflow does not immediately diverge when it leaves the discharge hose, thus making the airflow easier to direct.
