Transporting product horizontally through a process line usually involves pneumatic conveying and can cause considerable wear on flexible connectors.
It's, therefore, really important to know the best practices for using BFM® flexible connectors in horizontal applications.
In this video, we cover the following:
- regularly rotating connectors to avoid wear on one point
- which materials to use - we recommend Seeflex 040E or 060ES
- keeping a horizontal connector as short as possible
- what to do if you need a longer horizontal connector
