The GUNT Sediment Feeder HM 161.73 is designed for laboratory experiments to introduce bed-load sediment into the experimental section of flumes. Using a vibrating conveyor, it ensures precise and controlled feeding of sand for studying sediment transport.
Product Features
- Vibrating conveyor introduces sediment into the experimental section
- Typically mounted above the inlet of the experimental section
- Designed for sand with grain size of 1–2 mm
- Mounted on a separate walk-on platform for convenient operation and minimal vibration transfer to the flume
- Automatically identified by the PLC of HM 161
- Feeder operation and vibration intensity controlled via HM 161 PLC touch screen
- Not suitable for suspended load transport
- Used together with sediment trap HM 161.72
Benefits
- Provides controlled and precise sediment introduction into the experimental flume
- Separate platform prevents vibration interference with experiments
- PLC-controlled operation simplifies workflow and ensures reproducibility
- Ideal for educational and laboratory experiments on bed-load transport
