S-type chain elevator for conveying a wide variety of bulk materials. The elevator consists of steel buckets interconnected by conveying chains. Thanks to their all-steel design, they can also convey hot bulk materials with temperatures up to 300°C. As a result of the low chain speed of 2.5m/min, the conveyor is exposed to little wear. The holding capacity of a bucket is 20 litres. The buckets are attached to the conveyor chain without any gaps between them.
