    U.L. Tested Electric Interlock

    This fail-safe system is designed to allow only one chute door to be opened at a given time. At all times, the doors are positively locked until the attendant presses the push button release for the door to be used. When this door is opened, the other doors are electronically locked out while the chute is in use. The pilot light on each of the doors indicates when the chute is in use. An optional switch at the bottom of the chute can be provided to lock out all the doors during a cleaning period or maintenance. This system can also be tied into smoke and heat detection devices.

    Sound Deadening
    When noise is created by falling bottles and cans, it is recommended that the chute be coated with sound deadening material such as, standard Mastic or Korfund Vibrodamper 80-A.
    Spiral Chutes

    The use of gravity in spiral chute construction is based on the relation of friction and centrifugal force resisting gravity. This principal is augmented by concave troughs, so that materials of varying sizes and weights proceed at relatively uniform speeds. Thus, increasing the euse-possibiities to include service in most of the business and manufacturing fields. Positive action fire doors can be provided at all opening where required for fire protections. The open core type chutes have all-steel, trap type fire doors at the floor openings. The enclosed type spirals are equipped with vertical sliding, counter-balanced fire doors at intake and discharge points.
