    About Vibrators
    industrial info icon

    Choose between vibrators for wet and dry materials. Then, learn how to mount vibrators on bins to improve flow.

    Adjustable-Force Electric Vibrators for Dry Materials

    Change force output for different materials in your bin. These vibrators come set at a force. Adjust the force by changing the position of the weight within the housing. They're often used to shake and settle powders, flakes, and pellets in bins and hoppers. Motor is totally enclosed for use in environments with splashing water and dust. 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.

    The quietest vibrators we offer, these produce less noise than normal conversation. They’re often used to stimulate the flow of powders and flakes through chutes, parts feeding tracks, and screens. 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.
    Totally Enclosed Fan-Cooled (TEFC) Motor Enclosure and Totally Enclosed Nonventilated (TENV) Motor Enclosure—Vibrators with a totally enclosed motor stand up to splashing water, dusty environments, and outdoor use. They are not submersible.

    Solve flow problems at construction sites and other locations without electricity or an air supply. These vibrators are often used to shake sand, gravel, and other small particles in drums and spreaders. They have wire leads to connect a 12-volt battery (sold separately). Motor is totally enclosed fan cooled (TEFC) for use in environments with splashing water and dust. 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.
