Manual tilter 299 and 120 Series

automaticpneumaticelectric

Overview
Conair Tilters provide a safe method to move free‑flowing bulk material to one corner of a Gaylord/container for complete emptying by a vacuum loader. The 299 and 120 Series incorporate a built‑in safety ratchet that prevents unintended tilt‑back until released by the operator. Designed for heavy production use, these tilters can be installed adjacent to processing equipment or in central storage areas to maintain consistent material flow. Simple hand or foot controls allow quick leveling for container removal and replacement.

Key features

• Built‑in safety ratchet to prevent unintended tilt‑back and reduce pinch‑point hazards.
• Wide capacity range: available for 1,200 lb (≈545 kg), 1,500 lb (≈680 kg), 2,500 lb (≈1,134 kg) and 3,000 lb (≈1,361 kg) loads.
• Floor‑level models: platform sits flat on the floor for easy loading by hand truck or pallet mover; hold containers up to 2,500 lb (≈1,134 kg); heavy‑duty air bag option fills with compressed air to tilt automatically as emptied; includes adjustable conveyor feed‑tube support.
• Raised‑platform models: operated by heavy‑duty air cylinders; begin lifting when remaining container weight falls below approximately 500 lb (≈227 kg) and tip to 45° for smooth continuous feed to a vacuum feed tube.
• Manual or automatic operation: configurable for hand/foot leveling and for automatic return/lift to assure continuous material flow as the container empties.
• Pneumatic models operate on compressed air (no line voltage required); electric vibration kits available (110 VAC).

Options

• Electric or pneumatic vibration kits (electric kit requires 110 VAC).
• Full‑tilt indicator light to signal completed discharge.
• Gaylord cover for containment/protection of material.

Frequently asked points

• Vibration: air or electric vibrators help prevent bridging and material voids in the container.
• Operation modes: units support foot‑ or hand‑operated leveling; settable for manual or automatic cycle depending on line integration.
