The
IRD model number denotes the volume capacity in litres and the
throughout is dictated by the material bulk density so for example an
application with 100% APET regrind assuming 400g/l bulk density
processed on an IRD1000 would result in a throughout of 400 kilos per
hour.
The product rage at present is based on five models commencing with the
IRD500 and progressing through to the IRD3000.
