The air separator is for the separation of light and heavy material with a particle size of approx. 50 - 700 mm. The material to be separated is fed speeded-up on a conveyor belt to a separating roller. Here the separation of the heavy and light material is performed. Heavy material falls downwards at the roller, light material is blown over the separating roller in a sedimentation chamber where it settles down and then fed out on the conveyor.

Separation of the light and heavy fractions is achieved by a specific and quantity-adjustable air flow within the fall range, shortly after leaving the conveyor.

The separation effect can be influenced by the settings of the following components:

• Vertical position of the conveyor belt.
• Speed of the conveyor belt
• Speed of the separating roller
• Volume of the air power
• Inclination of the nozzle
• The compressed air
