DESCRIPTION:
Sediment Feeder (FM-1361.14)
The sediment feeder essentially consists of a vibrating conveyor, via which sediment is introduced into the experimental section. The feeder is usually mounted above the inlet to the experimental section. The sediment used is sand with a grain size of 1…2mm.
Specification
- Sediment feeder for a sediment feed to the experimental flume.
- Accessory for the sediment trap.
- Mounting above the inlet of the experimental section.
