Basic size Starco
The elevator head and foot sizes may be calculated using the following equations. The next page
shows the corresponding elevator drawing.

Basic size Starco
Basic parameters of an elevator with Starco resp. Super Starco elevator buckets. The elevator head
and foot sizes may be calculated using the mentioned equations and tables. For lifting heights bet-
ween 31 and 70 m, parameter 3 must be increased by 1/3.

H1 = grains and granules

H2 = flower, pellets, and powders
H4 and H6 = dry granulates
H5 and H7 = wet and powdered products,
flower and pellets.
