They selectively loosen bulk material in silos and containers with air, preventing bridging and caking. They are mounted from the inside through a drilled hole in the silo or container wall and are the standard solution for temperatures up to 80\u00b0C. Like all RATEC silicone fluidisation nozzles, they are made entirely from FDA-compliant materials and are therefore also suitable for food and pharmaceuticals.  <\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-rank-math-toc-block\" id=\"rank-math-toc\"><h2>Table of Contents<\/h2><nav><ul><li class=\"\"><a href=\"#so-funktioniert-die-beluftungsduse\">How the fluidisation pad works<\/a><\/li><li class=\"\"><a href=\"#technische-daten-kbd-60\">Technical data KBD-60<\/a><\/li><li class=\"\"><a href=\"#ihre-vorteile\">Your benefits<\/a><\/li><li class=\"\"><a href=\"#weitere-grossen-und-ausfuhrungen\">Other sizes and versions<\/a><\/li><li class=\"\"><a href=\"#welche-duse-passt-zu-ihrem-silo\">Which pad fits your silo?<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n\n<h4 id=\"so-funktioniert-die-beluftungsduse\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">How the fluidisation pad works<\/h4>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The round pad body has a flexible silicone sleeve. When air pressure is applied, the sleeve opens and the air escapes evenly into the bulk material. The product is loosened, i.e. fluidised, and flows evenly out of the cone again. When the air pressure is removed, the sleeve closes automatically so that no bulk material enters the pad.   <\/p>\n\n<h4 id=\"technische-daten-kbd-60\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Technical data KBD-60<\/h4>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>Feature<\/th><th>KBD-60<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Size<\/td><td>\u00d8 60 mm<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Version<\/td><td>Standard version<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Connection<\/td><td>1\/8\u2033<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Material<\/td><td>Silicone \/ stainless steel 1.4305, FDA-compliant<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Operating pressure<\/td><td>1 to 6 bar<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Temperature<\/td><td>\u221260\u00b0C to +80\u00b0C<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Installation<\/td><td>Internal mounting via borehole<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>ATEX<\/td><td>compliant version on request<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The specified sizes are standard; other sizes and materials are available on request.<\/p>\n\n<h4 id=\"ihre-vorteile\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Your benefits<\/h4>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Self-closing:<\/strong> no product in the pad.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>FDA-compliant:<\/strong> silicone and stainless steel, suitable for food and pharmaceuticals.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Easy installation:<\/strong> from the inside via a borehole.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Chemical-resistant:<\/strong> robust even with demanding products.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Uniform material flow:<\/strong> no bridging, no blockages.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h4 id=\"weitere-grossen-und-ausfuhrungen\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Other sizes and versions<\/h4>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The KBD-60 is also available in other sizes: <a href=\"https:\/\/ratec-systems.com\/en\/type-kbd-30\/\">KBD-30<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/ratec-systems.com\/en\/type-kbd-100\/\">KBD-100<\/a>.
