PTV Series Pneumatic Turbine Vibrators
• Aluminum body allows low noise and high vibration frequency
• Small in size and light-weight
• Sudden power on/off is allowed
• Frequency and amplitude of vibration can be adjusted as required
Series PTV Pneumatic Turbine Vibrators are the best choice of high
vibration frequency types for a low noise environment. It is usually
installed on a vibrating separator, conveyor, automatic arrangement
machine, packing machine, or filling machine.
HOW IT OPERATES
The vibration is produced by centrifugal force which arises from the
imbalance of movement when compressed air impacts the tangent of the
turbine to make it move. The operation noise is low because of ball
bearing supports on the running turbine.

INSTALLATION
Vibration force transmits more efficiently in a conical hopper tank as
opposed to a rectangular hopper. It is recommended that you install two
vibrators in rectangular hoppers.
1. Vibrator force can be transmitted more efficiently by using “U” shape
steel supports. It can help materials run smoother in the tank or pipe. It
also reduces tank damage accidents.
2. To avoid tank wall amplitude caused by the vibrator moving in a left or
right direction, use “U” shape steel.
3. Reinforced board is required between “U” shape steel and a thin tank
wall.
4. To increase vibration fields in a big hopper tank, criss-cross “U” shape
steel.
Attention: Vibration has to be fixed by a high tension bolt, washer, and
spring washer. Connect with a security cable if the vibrator is installed
onto a hopper.
VIBRATION FORCE CALCULATION
Taking the accumulated situation into consideration, the appropriate
vibrator will give 0.2~0.5 G accelerated vibration onto the target object.
F=0.2-0.4GW F: Vibration force (N)
G: Acceleration of gravity
W: Material weight (KG)
MATERIAL WEIGHT CALCULATION
Generally speaking, the hopper portion of the tank should be taken into
consideration.
Notes:
Various tanks are based on application requirement. Customers choose
appropriate vibrator types to meet with various applicant demand (tank
shape, material, applied material, etc). Suitable vibrators will not only
prevent obstruction problems but won’t damage the tank walls.
MAINTENANCE
Upon final installation of the Series PTV Pneumatic Turbine Vibrator, no
routine maintenance is required. A periodic check of the system calibration is recommended. The Series PTV is not field serviceable and should
be returned if repair is needed (field repair should not be attempted and
may void warranty). Be sure to include a brief description of the problem
plus any relevant application notes. Contact customer service to receive
a return good authorization number before shipping.
