PROSALT · Salt Washing Plant
How it works
A stainless steel vertical conveyor with a specially developed bearing arrangement. It supports reliable flow, durable operation and practical maintenance while reducing the risk of sticking.
Its place in the process
The elevator raises salt between equipment installed at different levels. Its inlet, discharge chute and supporting structure must align with the adjoining conveyors, while leaving access to the drive and inspection points.

Equipment questions
When is a bucket elevator preferable to an inclined conveyor?
A vertical arrangement can help when floor space is limited. The choice still depends on lift height, material behaviour, transfer rate and the building layout.
Can this equipment be integrated into an existing salt plant?
A retrofit is assessed from the existing process flow, material analysis, available dimensions and utility connections. The upstream and downstream equipment must be reviewed together before the scope is agreed.
