At Samco Services we are able to program the PLC for you, to make sure that the garbage system is working at its best. We know how important it is to deal with a proper functioning garbage chute and compactor. Garbage chutes converted for multiple material use instruct users to “push the flap” as a remedy; however a safety issue exists as descending materials from floors above may cause injury. A chute designed with a “sloped throat” alleviates the trapping phenomenon.
Historically, compactor bins positioned the operator away from materials coming down the chute during container exchanges. However, with a tri-sorter, operator proximity to the chute is closer, increasing risk. The solution is “lockable chute intake doors” with programmed and manual override controls. During container exchange the operator renders the system inaccessible to users.
