throughput range to meet growing demand for products that incorporate regrind and PCR along with virgin resin,” said Frank Kavanagh, vice president of sales and marketing.
Simplified conveying Maguire has also developed a new vacuum pump that simplifies the conveying of raw materials to blenders, dryers and machine hoppers. The NVRBE pump is easy to install and
operate. It can be configured within ‘mini- central’ systems with compact LowPro receiv- ers mounted on multiple blenders. Multiple units of the pump may be used in a single system. Its features include: a Clear-Vu dust collec-
tion bin, allowing the operator to easily see when cleaning is needed; a filter safety switch, which minimises dust contamination; and a

pressure differential switch that acts as a clogged filter sensor – stopping the blower if the filter is clogged over 90%. “The automatic features of the NVRBE vacuum pump and its simplicity of use make it especially compatible with Maguire’s LowPro receivers,” said Frank Kavanagh, vice president of sales and marketing.
As well as having profiles as much as 80% lower
than traditional receivers – and being easier to configure – LowPro receivers are autonomously controlled. “This makes them suitable for deployment in
automated mini-central systems for conveying to multiple blenders,” said Kavanagh. There is also a temperature safety switch to
prevent overheating of the blower. If the tempera- ture exceeds a certain limit, an air bypass valve opens to cool the blower. The air bypass valve lengthens pump life and reduces power usage by allowing the blower to keep running when no vacuum is required. Overall, the device is operates more quietly than positive displacement pumps, says Maguire. The vacuum pump comes with a five-year warranty.
