CAL-U Self-Contained Stainless Steel Hopper Loader
Introduction
The CAL-U Series self-contained hopper loaders are used to transfer pellets and regrind from a single source (usually a gaylord) to a single destination (usually a blender, drying hopper, or machine throat) in facilities that do no have centralized conveying systems.
The cost-efficient, stainless steel hopper ensures no material contamination and the soundproof motor cover reduces motor noise. The detachable control panel allows the operator the convenience of remote operation.

- User-friendly microprocessor control with fully programmable, easy-to-read interface with functions for filter cleaning time and frequency, load and delay time, and maintenance scheduling.
- Extremely reliable, highly sensitive reed switch on CAL-U or photosensor switch on CAL-U-E for material level detection.
- Quick release, hinged hopper lid ensures quick cleanup time and easy maintenance.
- CAL-6U and above models can select an air accumulator to enhance purging and reduce manual clean time.
