About Selecting a Vibrator

Electric Vibrators for Wet Materials
Since they generate vibration with electromagnets, these vibrators have no moving parts that can wear out and shorten service life. They pound on container walls to dislodge sticky, caked-on materials. Vibrators require a controller (sold separately). Bin wall thickness determines the force required to move the material in the bin. To select a vibrator strong enough for your application, find your bin's wall thickness in the table.
Style 4 have an internal cushion for reduced noise. They are water resistant for use in environments with splashing water.
Style 5 make direct contact with the container wall for maximum impact. They are water resistant for use in environments with splashing water.
Required controllers have an adjustable speed dial. Controllers for 3,600 VPM vibrators are rated NEMA 4 for protection against washdowns, corrosion, and dust. Choose by matching the vibrator's voltage, vibration speed, and current to the controller.
