Cylindrical, horizontal vessel with flat welded back cover and a hinged flat front door opening up over the entire vessel diameter. With the door open, the internals of the machine are fully accessible for cleaning and inspection purposes.
All surfaces in contact with the product such as the vessel, back cover, front door, agitator and vapour Filter are heated, providing very efficient heat exchange.
The cylindrical vessel, the back cover, the front door and the agitator are machined to assure the smallest possible tolerances between agitator and vessel walls.
     - Smallest possible tolerances also permit good heat exchange and          prevent product adherence.
    -  All internal surfaces are mirror polished, to improve the flow behavior of        powdery products, the prevention of micro deposits as well as to facilitate        cleaning.
     - The agitator is installed at the back of the Dryer, supported on one side of         the vessel only.
     - The agitator is designed to meet the requirements of this particular Dryer        type to assure good and even mixing action throughout the Dryer volume,        also in reverse operation, to provide good discharging characteristics and        at the same time reduce friction on the product to a minimum to prevent        local overheating as well as to prevent directional thrust or local product        compression.
   - Speed adjustable using frequency converters with electric drives or control        valves with hydraulic drives.
   - Sealing of the agitator shaft with double mechanical seal or stuffing box.

Mechanical seal: the mechanical seal is
installed on the rear cover, and is well accessible for cleaning and maintenance purposes. Dry or wet running mechanical seals may be installed.
Advantages of the mechanical seal:
     - Better final vacuum.
     - No hazardous leakage or emissions.
     - No product contamination.
     - Possibility of sterile operation.
Failure detection system for mechanical seal.
Stuffing box with multiple lip seals for undemanding applications.
Solids discharge valve, plug or ball type, pneumatically operated.
CIP and / or steam sterilization available.
Vapour Filter, equipped with automatic Filter back-cleaning system.
Sample valve.
Optional choppers.
Machine controls manual, or with PLC, PC and DCS.
Electric pre-wiring of machine.
Design and manufacturing to the requirements of international organizations such as ASME, TÜV, etc.
Environmentally sound and safe to operate.
