Container Unloading Systems
Six CDU discharge units (PG01–PG06), for use with the SR20 tilter.
Overview
- Models
- CDU PG01–PG06
- Arrangement
- Container-mounted / mobile
- Selection basis
- Flow behavior, liner outlet, site layout
- Works with
- SR20 tilter, pneumatic conveying, silos
- Scope
- Design, supply, installation and commissioning
Container unloading systems discharge bulk powders and pellets from the container liner into downstream pneumatic conveying and silos. The six CDU discharge units (PG01–PG06) are selected by flow behavior, liner outlet and site layout, and can work with the SR20 tilter. We provide design, supply, installation and commissioning.
Model comparison
| Model | Arrangement | Material focus | Receiving concept |
|---|---|---|---|
| PG01 | Container-mounted | Powders and granules; poor-flow powders | Wide inlet, opposing flights |
| PG02 | Container-mounted | Free-flowing powders and granules | Frame-mounted receiving unit |
| PG03 | Container-mounted | Caking, poorly flowing bulk solids | Access panels, central discharge |
| PG04 | Mobile | Free-flowing powders and granules | Wide fishtail inlet |
| PG05 | Mobile | Free-flowing bulk solids | Three liner connections |
| PG06 | Mobile | Free-flowing granules | Round inlet, rotary valve |
This comparison supports initial selection. Final configuration depends on material trials, liner dimensions and conveying conditions.
How to choose
Flow behavior first
For poor-flow or caking materials, start with PG01 or PG03; for free-flowing materials, PG02, PG04 or PG05; for free-flowing granules, PG06.
Then the liner outlet
Confirm the number, shape, size, position and attachment of the liner outlets.
Finally the arrangement
Choose container-mounted or mobile to suit the site.
SR20 container tilter
The SR20 can be combined with CDU PG01–PG06 for unloading.
Information for selection
| Category | Information to provide |
|---|---|
| Material | Name, powder or granule, particle size and bulk density |

| Duty | Target throughput, operating temperature, batches and duty |
| Container liner | Outlet count, shape, dimensions, location and attachment |
| Container and site | Container type, available tilt angle, space and equipment layout |
| Downstream conveying | Conveying method, distance, lift, pipe size and receiving conditions |
| Utilities and controls | Power, compressed air, interlocks and site interfaces |

FAQ
Can it feed pneumatic conveying directly?
Yes. The downstream conveying method, distance, lift and pipe size are confirmed during selection.
