General Steel & Supply Co. recently completed its first demonstration of the new Model 76 Air Separator. This unit is designed for applications of feed rates up to 60TPH. It incorporates all the design concepts of the 13’ air separator with the AC inverter drive for variable speed, specially designed wear liners in all critical wear areas, hydraulics for easy setup, (2) 18” x 24’ discharge conveyors, and a 18” x 34’ feed conveyor. The main difference with this unit is the use of an oil bath system for the main bearing compared to the grease system used on the 13’ model.
The new Model 76 is available as either a portable or stationary unit. The stationary unit is designed so that it can be easily disassembled and loaded into a standard shipping container. This will be beneficial to international customers in saving on freight costs.
The Model 76 is going to be a great addition into General Steel’s air separator product line, especially for the smaller operators that deal with the same regulations and specifications as competiting large producers.
