CENTRIFEEDER MCV: FEATURES AND BENEFITS

The CentriFeeder line of feeders allow for both an accurate, real-time flow measurement, as well as near perfect control of flow rate and total. For blending applications, control the flow rate of an individual ingredient, or combine several CentriFeeders for near perfect recipe control. If you are controlling ingredients entering a batching process, use the CentriFeeder for controlling the total of one or more ingredients entered into the batch.

The CentriFeeder MCV Integrates a flow measurement device with the flow control capabilities of an integrated slide gate to accurately measure and control the flow of any dry, free-flowing solid that can be controlled using a slide gate. Through the use of a highly customizable touch screen HMI, a PID control loop is established that modulates the slide gate feeding our patented flow measurement device. The outcome is an accurate, easily maintained, consistent flow that can be used for mixing, ratio control, or even bulk density measurement.

TYPES OF OPERATION:		Can control flow rate for continuous blending applications or can control total throughput for batching or filling applications
EXTREMELY LOW FLOWS:		The CentriFeeder MCV can control flows from 12.5 lb/hr (5.7 kg/hr) up to 16,000 lb/hr (7257 kg/hr) and more
RUGGED CONSTRUCTION:		Made of Rugged Aluminum and Stainless Steel, the MCV feeder's design life exceeds one million valve cycles
PERFECT FOR DELICATE PRODUCTS:		Utilizing a product's natural tendency to bridge, the Virtual Flow Stop ensures that flow stops without shutting the valve completely which both minimizes wear of the valve itself and limits damage to the product caused by being crushed in the closing valve
ADAPTABILITY:		The CentriFeeder MCV can be used as a standalone unit or can be used in concert for multi-product blending or batching
RESPONSE TIME:		Responds to flow changes within 100 ms and will typically be within +/- 1.0% of the flow set-point after 1 second of runtime.
EXTREME ACCURACY:		The CentriFeeder MCV is extremely accurate and can retain +/-0.25% accuracy for some products, over the entire range of the feeder
COMPACT DESIGN:		With a vertical height under 27" and a width that is less than 9" the MCV has a very compact design that can be mounted almost anywhere. The MCV is designed to be installed as an individual unit or stacked for multiple ingredient blending

The CentriFeeder Digital Electronics is a remote electronics package that comes standard with every CentriFeeder. The electronics allows the user to enter a set-point based on either flow rate or totalization and to control the flow of product to that set-point. The standard electronics cable that comes with each meter, measures 10 feet in length, but the length of the cable can be customized for installation in remote locations such as control rooms which can be several hundred feet from the feeder's installation location. Below are just some of the remote electronics package's features and benefits:
