Elevator Head
- Elevator Head
- Structural steel drive and bearing frame protects head components.
- External-mounted double roller bearings support the head pulley for long life.
- Shaft seals trap suspended dust inside for cleaner operation.
- Crowned and re-lagged head pulley ensures positive torque transfer and minimizes belt alignment adjustment.
- Three inspection doors allow inspection without removing the enclosure bonnet.
- Patented six-position atmospheric vent adjusts for bucket-induced turbulence.

Intermediate Legging
- Automated machine fixturing and robot welding produces perfectly aligned leg casings without torsional twist.
- Double well design reduces wind load (only on series SL20 or larger).
- One legging section for each elevator has an inspection cover for easier belt and bucket installation.
- Break leg section allows for a smaller boot pulley, lower position of the hoppers (only on series SL36 or larger).

Boot
- Non-ferrous seal slides between boot housing and takeup plate to prevent corrosive seizing.
- Lip seal around boot shafts help keep dust inside the boot.
- Sealed roller bearings under the cleanout slide are easy to remove.
- External mounted bearings support the boot pulley shalf.
- Two screw-type adjustable takeups control belt alignment and tension.
- Automatic, gravity-type belt takeups for belt tension control are standard on series SL48 models.
- Inlet pocket options are on the upside, the downside, or both sides.

Self-Cleaning Boots
- The movement of the entire boot applies leg belt tension to maintain close clearance between the bucket and the round boot bottom.
- Felt-sealed, telescoping leg sections allow the boot to act as the belt takeup.
- The boot pulley may be adjusted vertically to fine-tune bucket clearance on the boot bottom.
- Boot bottom hinges open for cleanout.
- Design allows the leg assembly to be supported remotely from the boot, allowing free vertical movement of the boot housing.

Bulk Material Handling
- Molded polyethylene style-CC buckets are sized to the application.
- Lightweight polyethylene provides excellent durability and wear.
- Bucket is non-sparking.
- Reinforced, static-conducting PVC belting is sized to the application.

Drives
- Optional SMC motor and drive are sized to the application.
- Choice of sprocket and chain (low-speed) or V-belt (high-speed) drives.
- Fully enclosed guards protect chain and V-belts.
- V-belt drives are sized by horsepower with a minimum of two belts.
