The RATEC KBSS-50 sinter ventilation nozzles are made of highly porous stainless steel and distribute air finely into silos and containers, loosening the bulk material so it does not bridge. They have a size of Ø 2″, are easily screwed in via a threaded socket, and are available in three identically designed sizes. The corrosion-resistant stainless steel is sturdy, durable, and operates silently, making it ideal for chemical and pharmaceutical applications as well as abrasive bulk materials.

How sinter ventilation works
The air flows through the porous sintered stainless steel body and exits into the bulk material finely distributed over its surface. The product is loosened, or fluidized; clumps and bridges dissolve, and the bulk material flows evenly out of the cone again.
