How the System Works

OVERVIEW: Cellulose, Fiberglass, or Stone Wool insulation is loaded into the hopper. The agitator
breaks-up and conditions the insulation for proper density while also sweeping the insulation into the
airlock. The airlock transports the insulation into the airstream created by the blower system.
Insulation is discharged from the airlock, through the machine outlet, and into the hose. The insulation
is further conditioned as it travels through the hose.
An introduction to key components of the system
follows:
Electrical Panel: The electrical panel, combined
with the remote (wired and/or wireless), provides
operation of the machine.
GOWIRELESS: The optional GOWIRELESS LRT (long
range transmission) system enables wireless use.
The transmitter can be mounted on wrist, hose,
belt clip, lanyard, or in a pocket.
Hopper: The hopper contains the insulation being
fed into the agitators.
Hopper Extension (optional): The extension
provides the user the ability to place more
insulation into the hopper. It will also safely keep hands away from
the agitator bar.
Agitator: The agitator is located in the bottom section of the
hopper. The configuration of the agitator enables high production
rates and appropriate insulation conditioning. The agitator also transports the insulation through the
slide gate and into the airlock.
Slide Gate: The slide gate is between the agitator and the airlock. The slide gate allows the user to
alter the volume of insulation being swept into the airlock over time. An open slide gate provides the
maximum amount of insulation into the airlock over time; often this is the case when open blowing
attics. Closing the slide gate provides more conditioning to the insulation. When the slide gate
restricts insulation flow into the airlock the insulation comes into more contact with the agitator,
resulting in increased conditioning of the insulation and more airflow vs. product flow ratio. The slide
gate is typically used during wall fill applications where the user desired a higher ratio of air to product
flow to pack the insulation densely into wall cavities.
