3 Description of the product

3.1 Design and function

The product is provided especially for cleaning difficult profile belts, e.g. chevron or slatted belts, and baked-on material. It is largely used as a single cleaning system; can however also be used in combination with a main cleaner.

The product installation is centred below the head pulley so as to feed the bulk solid back into the material stream. If by the use of this product, the material handling process is interrupted or the product contaminated, the user is responsible for taking any counter measures necessary.

Various bristle materials can be selected for a very large range of applications. For this, there are two different materials (polyester and brass) available that are specified in more detail in the technical data sheet. These are available for selection in three different bristle patterns (full, spiral-shaped and straight).

Description of the product

Only the same material and bristle pattern type can be used together. A mixture of different material and bristle pattern is not intended and must be checked in any individual case.

NOTE

An unfavourably or improperly installed product can disrupt the conveyor process or contaminate the bulk material to be transported. The owner-operator is responsible for taking the required countermeasures. In the case of applications with contaminants, Martin Engineering or one of its representatives can assist with the positioning or with special solutions.

Before any installation or maintenance work is carried out, ensure that all power sources to the conveyor belt system and its accessories are switched off and secured against unauthorised reactivation. Use warning s igns!

Installation

WARNING! RISK OF EXPLOSION!

Increased risk when using a cutting torch or welding device in closed rooms!

Installation

5.2 Installation process

5.2.1 Determination of the installation position

The position of the axle and the tensioning device of the secondary cleaner must be determined on both sides of the chute wall. In this process, the positions are therefore determined for where the shaft of the secondary cleaner is routed through the chute wall and/or where the tensioner is installed on the chute wall.

The secondary cleaner is delivered jointly with a tensioner. This is delivered as a work´s dismantled unit and will be installed together with the secondary cleaner during the general installation.

The installation process for the secondary cleaner and the tensioner is described in the supplied installation instructions.

Various on-site conditions requiring different work steps are possible for the installation. These are presented as follows:

Installation on an encapsulated transfer system

• Follow the instructions given in Section 5.2.2.

Installation on an encapsulated transfer system with pre-existing installation openings and air line brackets for belt cleaners.

• Follow the instructions given in Section 5.2.3.

Installation on an open transfer system

NOTE

Martin Engineering recommends installing a MARTIN® inspection door for the purpose of better accessibility for maintenance and repairs.

NOTE

The secondary cleaner should ideally be installed near a head pulley or a counter-pressure roller. The clearance should not be more than 200 mm.

NOTE

The installation position is to be so selected that sufficient space is

available for the installation of the MARTIN This distance should lie at least 350 mm outside the chute wall on the operator side and at least 100 mm on the opposite side.
