8.1 Mixing valve
Design and function
In conjunction with hopper loaders, the mixing valve MZX provides for automatic
metered addition of a second material, e.g. regrind material. The desired additional
quantity can be pre-selected digitally in percentages at the control unit. (Refer also
to operating instructions of control unit ).
A separator conveying pipe is connected to the mixing valve for each component.
The pneumatically actuated mixing valve is controlled by the electronic control unit
of the hopper loader.
There by the mixing valves are opened automatically within a dosing interval in
accordance with the set percentages.
The accuracy of the set percentages also depends on the length of the conveying
line. Optimum values are obtained with a conveying line length up to 5m.
It is preferred to select the lower percentage as component K1 (e.g. regrind
material).
In the event of only one component required, set k1 to „0“.
