Schenck Process, Whitewater, WI 800-558-0184 www.schenckprocess.com/us Bulk Bag Unloader Bulk bag unloader system is for highly contaminant-sensitive process areas where combustible-dust-generating bulk materials are handled. Sys- tem's 9.525-millimeter polycarbonate encasement prevents migrant dusts on the bag's exterior from becoming airborne and entering the work zone during bag conditioning and bag collapse. System's E3 closed-cycle dust recovery system introduces the bulk bag's combustible materials, without releasing dust, directly to an integrated surge hopper. System's surge hop- per features an explosion venting system (calculated on a K St value of 170 and P max of 9.5) to direct and release overpressure to prepared areas, rein- forced walls and cover, and a 4.5-psi internal pressure rating.
