About Selecting a Vibrator

Vacuum-Mount Air-Powered Vibrators for Wet Materials
These vibrators attach more quickly than other vibrators by generating a vacuum instead of bolting or welding, so you can place them at the source of the blockage and quickly move them between bins. They're often used to dislodge sticky, caked-on materials from trailers, railcars, and hoppers. 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.

Bracket-Mount Air-Powered Vibrators for Wet Materials
Weld a bracket to each of your containers and move these vibrators from job to job. They're commonly used to dislodge sticky, caked-on materials from container walls. 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.

Portable Magnetic-Mount Air-Powered Vibrators for Dry Materials
Move this vibrator to the source of your flow problem. It is lightweight and has a magnetic mount, so it can be attached to steel and iron containers. Use an adhesive-back metal pad (sold separately) to attach it to nonferrous containers. This vibrator is often used to shake powders, grains, and small parts in bins and hoppers with intermittent flow issues. Every 10 pounds of dry material requires one pound of force to move it. If your bin has 200 pounds of dry material, you need a vibrator with at least 20 pounds of force.
