Mounting Considerations
Reinforcement plates are always recommended. The
reinforcement plate should match bin wall thickness up to 1/2".
A reinforcement plate of 1/2" thickness should be used on bin
walls exceeding 1/2" thickness. Refer to NAVCO installation
drawings for reinforcement plate dimensions.
If the hopper slope angle is greater than 70° from the horizontal,
a piston return spring is recommended to ensure positive
starting action (BH 1.62 through BH 6.00 only).
Vibrator(s) should be located according to NAVCO bin map or
installation drawing.
