Import Tips
• Certify fluidization pads for abrasive resistance and include pressure vessel compliance (ASME)
• Specify non-sparking components for dusty environments to meet hazardous location standards
• Document silo compatibility (e.g
• 3-4 inch powder) to avoid general truck equipment classification
