NOTE

Use conditions such as grain shape, dressing or the addition of talcum affect the correct selection of the singling disks. Selection of the singling disks must be adapted to the respective use conditions and can only be determined in field operation.

The sliding shutter position and fan pressures are reference values.

The control flap position and pressure difference are reference values.
