A device for separating material from a pneumatic conveyor. The pneumatic conveyor includes a duct, which is preferably rectangular in cross-section, for conveying material entrained on a stream of air. The material separator device is interposed in a straight section of the conveyor duct and operates to remove the material conveyed in the duct while permitting the passage of air. The separator device comprises an air-permeable endless belt arranged to traverse the passageway through the duct and drive means for continuously moving the endless belt across the passageway. |
