            Acrison                            ®                        FEEDER



            Acrison                            ®             Model BDF-1.5-2

                                                                 For Dry Solid Materials





             Designed for both continuous and batch-

             ing applications, the Model BDF-1.5-2
             Volumetric Feeder provides superior

             materials-handling capabilities and an
             exceptionally broad feed range.






            Introduction

            The Model BDF-1.5-2 Volumetric Feeder is a ver-
            sion of Acrison’s uniquely versatile Model BDF-
            1.5 Feeder; however, the Model BDF-1.5-2
            includes two separate, independently driven
            metering augers, which when combined, pro-
            duce a very wide feed range.

            Specifically, the Model BDF-1.5-2 Feeder elimi-
            nates the undesirable, if not burdensome task of
            changing the size of the metering auger of a
            continuous dry solids feeder whenever an
            uncommonly wide feed range is required.
            Additionally, the Model BDF-1.5-2 provides both
            high (rapid feed) and low (dribble) feed outputs
            for batching applications (i.e., a larger metering
            auger feeds the majority of the material for the
            selected batch weight, and a smaller metering
            auger provides the final“dribble”amount so that
            the highest degree of batch cut-off accuracy can
            be achieved.






               Metering accuracies generally range
               between ±1 to 2 percent or better (error)
               for the majority of products. Accuracy is
               based on a given number of consecutive
               one minute samples.
