ATTENTION

Before proceeding to the setting up, it is necessary to read this instruction

manual.

EC DECLARATION OF CONFORMITY

Urbar Ingenieros, S.A. declares under its responsibility that the CNU air
canons fulfil Council’s Directive concerning pressure vessels 87/404/CEE.

SAFETY

The safety of the canon during installation, operation and maintenance

is of vital importance. Personal injuries and mishaps or damage to the
canon can only be avoided with the use of suitable material and
appropriate procedures. Accidents can be avoided by the individual
worker using foresight and common sense as tools.

DESCRIPTION

The CNU-M Air Cannon is a system for moving bulk materials by

economically and efficiently discharging a volume of compressed air.
This sudden charge of energy is aimed at compact materials stored in
containers, silos, hoppers, etc., to make them flow freely.

The compressed air stored in the vessel of the CNU-M Air Cannon is
hurled like an explosive charge. Due to the high speed of the discharge,
the impact of energy breaks up the compact material.

After the impact breaks up the material, the air expands and causes a
shock which displaces the material, allowing it to flow freely through the
hopper outlet.

The CNU-M Air Cannon is safe: it produces no sparks or flames.

The structure suffers no damage, as it is designed to reduce back

motion to the minimum, avoiding any possibility of fatigue in the
structure.

If any problem arises regarding the installation, operation or

maintenance of the equipment, please contact the nearest service
point of URBAR Ingenieros.

Installation instructions

GENERAL

The CNU-M Air Cannon works with standard compressed air networks.
To work in a proper way, it should be clean and dry.

It works within the 2-10 kg/cm2 pressure range. The higher is the pressure,
the more effective it is. In many cases, it may be sufficient to use a 2-
6kg/cm2 pressure range.

The maximum drive frequency is 12 shots per minute, always depending

on the pressure of the network, and the bore of the inlet pipes.

The working temperature range goes from -25ºC to +80ºC.

VERY IMPORTANT

THE CNU-M AIR CANNON SHOULD NEVER BE USED BEFORE IT IS PROPERLY

INSTALLED ON THE HOPPER OR STRUCTURE, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES
WHATEVER THE EFFECTS OF THE PNEUMATIC IMPACT HAVE TO BE
CONCENTRATED WITHIN THE STRUCTURE, TO AVOID THE POSSIBILITY OF
CAUSING DAMAGE.

CONSTRUCTION

The only moving part in the CNU-M air cannon is a membrane accessible
from the outside without dismantling the unit. This membrane gives the air-
tightness to the air cannon.

SAFETY AGAINST ACCIDENTS

CNU air cannons fulfil Council’s Directive concerning pressure vessels

87/404/CEE.

FIXATION

A 30º inclination must be respected.

A 10 mm thick plate should be used to reinforce the hopper structure.

Sometimes it is helpful to use a diffuser, in order to have a larger

influence on the material.

WORKING PRINCIPLE OF THE CNU-M AIR CANNON

1. To load the accumulation chamber D with air, connect the line

through valve V.

2. The air presses the membrane M against the edges of tube T, closing
chamber D, which is filled with air, through the holes in the
membrane.

3. The air entering through the holes in the membrane fill chamber D
until compensation is reached.

4. When the pilot valve operates, the air contained in chamber C

escapes through Valve V. Communication opens between chamber
D and tube T. In this way the air leaves instantaneously, through tube
T, expanding as an explosion. It makes an impact on the material,
hollowing it our so that it finally comes away from the walls of the
hopper or silo, allowing the material to flow.

Installation instructions

INSTALLATION

A 3/4" rapid exhaust valve must be placed at the opening of the CNU-M
Air Cannon. This rapid discharge valve must be piloted by a valve,
whose minimum rated diameter must be 3/8”.

This valve can be electrically driven 3-way normally open, 5-way

normally closed-open, or another type of valve. The valve supplied as
standard is a 5-way electrovalve.

The electrovalve can be coupled to the rapid released vakve direct, or

through a rigid pipe; in this case, the bore must be more than 10 mm.
and the maximum length of the pipe must be 1,5 m.

If piloting is done with a pneumatic or hand valve, the same

requirements must be complied too.

CONNECTING THE RELEASE VALVE

The rapid release valve must be connected to the CNU-M Air Cannon,
in the “OUT” connection. Supply will be made in the “IN” connection;
the third connection “EXH” corresponds to the discharge and must be
kept free.

CONNECTING THE 5-WAY ELECTROVALVE

 The 5-way electrovalve has 1 inlet "P" and 2 outlets “A” and "B", and
two exhausts "R1" and "R2".
 Supply is connected in the central inlet "P".
 Air leaves in the normally open position, passing towards the rapid
release valve, position "B", with the outlet "A" stopped.

CONNECTING THE 3-WAY ELECTROVALVE:

 The 3-way electrovalve only has one inlet, where the supply is
connected.
 The outlet is arranged so that in the normally open position, the air
passes towards the rapid release valve.
