Gericke, Regensdorf, Switzerland, reports that its Easydos PRO feeder control unit has won approval for applications in explosive atmospheres containing combustible dust. Now certified for use in ATEX zone 22, it was developed following more than 40 years of practical experience in the design of gravimetric feeders and uses the unique TrendTec algorithm for controlling the feeder’s mass flow. The control unit achieves remarkably high accuracy and stability, even in rough industrial environments.

Key to its success, when it comes to precision requirements in feeding and weighing processes, resides in the combination of the Easydos PRO with matching Gericke loss-in-weight feeders, for example the hybrid feeders of the DIW-E series. Especially in continuous feeding processes, this combination of advanced control and up-to-date mechatronic gravimetric feeders guarantees a high level of accuracy, which is comparable to the degree of accuracy normally provided by static weighing. www.gericke.net.
