All volumes and capacities are based on a controlled, uniform feed of product to the conveyor and properly loaded buckets. Uneven loading, surges and voids, and non free flowing products can severely affect production rates. We cannot guarantee bucket sizing in relationship to production rate without receiving representative samples of the product(s) to be conveyed and all details pertaining to the intended feed system to the elevator and details of the intended operation. Consult the factory for assistance in determining bucket size. Frazier & Son cannot be responsible for improper size selection by others.
