Discharge options

End discharges

All model simplexes are furnished with standard flanged end discharge chute. Since many applications require specially designed chutes, a wide variety of special end discharge chutes is available. Typical of these chutes are those with high-low level controls and divided chutes with selective valves that are either manual or electrically operated. Figure

Side discharges

All model S and C simplexes can be provided with side discharges to discharge product at various locations. The product is dumped from the top strand of buckets into a chute and then discharges through the side of the simplex.

Figure 11D shows the buckets in the side position for a side discharge. The trip mechanism can be fixed, manual or remote controlled.

Figure 12A-illustrates that side discharges can be to the left or the right.
Figure12B-shows a divided side discharge that evenly divided the product and discharges the product from both sides of the elevator. These chutes can be equipped with diverters t o discharge the product to the left or right.

Bottom discharges

All C series simplex units are provided with one fixed bottom discharge chute as standard. However they can be provided with multiple bottom discharges as depicted above. The C series is not available with side discharges.
