Efficient Trim Removal Improves Sustainability


FOX TrimAway®
You can expect from FOX TrimAway®:
  • lower first cost
  • lower operative cost
  • less noise

 
Unique Approach to Trim Removal:
  • System Design
    The FOX TrimAway® System uses a regenerative blower to generate a motive air stream at significantly higher pressures than that of a conventional blower. A unique venturi design is used to convert this output into the high velocity required for efficient material transport. This combination yields outstanding performance with typically 50% in energy savings over axial blower type systems.

  • Modular Components
    As with all CAC systems and accessories, by using modular components the FOX TrimAway® System can be matched to specific requirements of each individual customer specifications by offering a complete range of regenerative blowers (1 to 15 horsepower). These components are then matched by application engineers to the specific requirements of each application.
 

Features:

  • Venturi Construction
    Material: Aluminum, PTFE lining available.
    Unique design: Motive flow rate may be adjusted to optimize performance.
  • Regenerative Blower Construction
    Mounting base, impeller and housing manufactured of aluminum allow for maximum strength, reduced weight and increased corrosion resistance. Totally enclosed, fan-cooled motor with thermal overload protection. Direct drive motor/blower combination dynamically balanced for reliability.
  • Ducting
    Plastic, metal and PTFE-lined ducting is available.
  • Complete
    The FOX TrimAway System is supplied with all necessary intake and discharge ducting and fittings to make a ready-for-installation system.
  • Quiet
    Noise levels well below conventional systems. Silencing mufflers are not required to meet OSHA standards.
  • Energy Efficient
    Power consumption reduced in half: Only one HP is required for most waste removal applications.
  • Compact
    Typical venturi/blower combination occupies approximately one cubic foot
  • Versatile Mounting
    Compact venturi may be mounted at point of use or integrally with blower.
