Direct Blaster EDB Series

product enquiry form

The Direct Blaster is a powerful pneumatic flow aid engineered to eliminate severe material blockage and ensure reliable discharge in hoppers, silos, chutes, and storage vessels. It delivers an instant, high-energy blast of compressed air directly into the problem area, breaking bridges, rat-holing, and material adhesion at the source, without relying on vibration or mechanical impact.

Designed for demanding industrial processes, the Direct Blaster provides maximum clearing force with precise control, making it ideal for stubborn materials that resist conventional flow aids. Its robust construction and efficient air usage help reduce downtime, protect equipment integrity, and maintain uninterrupted production flow.

Key Features

  • High-impact direct air discharge Releases a concentrated burst of compressed air exactly where blockage occurs for immediate results.
  • Effective against severe bridging and rat-holing Ideal for heavy, sticky, cohesive, or compacted bulk materials.
  • Vibration-free operation Eliminates structural fatigue, noise, and damage associated with knockers and vibrators.
  • Simple, robust construction Built for long-term durability with minimal wear and reduced maintenance requirements.
  • Efficient use of compressed air Delivers maximum flow-clearing force with controlled air consumption.
  • Easy installation and integration Can be mounted directly to hoppers or vessels with minimal modification.
  • Improved operational safety No external moving parts or mechanical striking components.
  • Reliable, repeatable performance Consistent blasting cycles ensure stable material flow and predictable process control.

The Direct Blaster is a proven solution for industrial operations that demand aggressive, reliable blockage prevention—helping maintain material flow, protect equipment, and keep production running at full capacity.
