Technical specifications
Do not make any modifications to the machine and use only RETSCH approved spares and accessories.
Failure to comply will invalidate the CE declaration and guarantee.
Machine designation: BB 100
Utilization as per the intended purpose
This unit is not designed as a production machine, but as as laboratory device intended for 8 hours single shift operation. The BB 100 is suitable for reducing substances of medium to extreme hardness and for brittle and tough materials. The ultimate fineness can be as little as 1 mm and, depending on the material being processed, may be even less. Maximum recommended grain size for feedstock product is 50 mm. The following is a list of some of the materials which can be crushed using the BB 100: Bakelite // bauxite // concrete // dolomite // ores // feldspar // granite // graywacke // glass // limestone // gravel // coal // coke // corundum // quartz // salts // refractory clay // slag // silicates // silicon // sintered materials // cement clinker, etc.
Gap width adjustment range
From 0 to about 20 mm using a threaded spindle
Throughput rate and ultimate fineness
The performance data, throughput rate and ultimate degree of fineness are functions of the fracture properties and the hardness of the product being crushed and the gap width selected. These values can only be determined empirically.
Receiver drawer nominal volume
approx. 2000 ml
Electrical protection classes
IP 54 for motor and overload switch IP 65 for limit switch
Rated power
750 watts

Fig. 1
Installation
Set up the BB 100 only on a solid, level surface. The jaw crusher should be anchored to provide sufficient protection against tipping; use the holes in the feet of the BB 100 for this purpose; see Fig. 1. The vibrations transmitted to the environment by the free mass moments in the BB 100 will be only barely perceptible.
Electrical connection
Refer to the data plate for information on the voltage and
frequency at which the BB 100 is to be operated.
Ensure that the values shown there correspond to those for the
local power supply.
Use the supplied power cord to connect the BB 100 to the
power supply.
When connecting the power cord to the power source, be sure
that the supply circuit is fused in accordance with local codes.
!
The BB 100 will not exhibit the degree of protection against tipping prescribed in EN 61010 unless it is anchored to the floor.
Components could be damaged. Hazard of crushing arms and feet.
Failure to observe the values on the data plate can cause damage to the electrical or the mechanical components or both.

Starting the BB 100
The BB 100 may be started only when the crushing chamber and fill hopper are empty. Product which is present in the crushing chamber or fill hopper before starting will cause the machine to block and can cause damage to mechanical components.

The ON/OFF and motor protection switch A/A1 is located on the left, at the front of the BB 100. Fig. 2
Press button I.
The motor starts and the movable arm is set in motion.
The crushing operation can now be started, once the feed hopper is in place.
Stopping the BB 100
The ON/OFF and motor protection switch A is located on the left, at the front of the BB 100. Fig. 2
Press button 0
The motor is separated from the power supply and the movable breaker arm comes to a stop.
Stop the BB 100 only when the crushing chamber has been cleared of product. Mechanical components could be damaged by blockage.
Empty the receiver drawer
Since the volume fed through the hopper can be greater than the capacity of the drawer (V = 2000 ml), the drawer C will have to be emptied from time to time. To achieve the maximum fill level in the drawer, it is necessary to shake it back and forth occasionally, without displacing the drawer by more than 30 mm.

Fill product to be crushed
The fill hopper B and the crushing chamber can accept product at grain size of up to 50 mm. Fill the crushing chamber and the fill hopper only while the machine is running.
The fill hopper is not intended to store product to be crushed; its sole purpose is to feed the material into the crushing chamber while at the same time keeping the operator from unintentionally reaching into the crushing chamber and at the same time keeping crushed product from being ejected.

Target group: Laboratory technicians
General
The BB 100 is a rugged, floor-mounted unit which is used primarily for preliminary crushing in preparation for final size reduction. Its continuous operating concept also makes the BB 100 suitable for integration into fully automatic and semi-automatic processing lines. The performance data, throughput rates and ultimate fineness will depend on the fracture properties and hardness of the product and on the gap width which is selected.
Grain size of feedstock product
The maximum grain size is determined by the size of the fill hopper opening; in the BB 100 this is a maximum of 50 mm.
Properties of the product being crushed
Every hard and brittle product, exhibiting a hardness of greater than 3 on the Mohs scale, can as a rule, be reduced with the BB
100. Wet and oily product and that with a hardness index below 3 (Mohs scale) tend to be compressed and clump in the crushing chamber, this being due to the pressure exerted by the breaker jaws. It is for this reason that pre-crushing such material is hardly possible.

!
Do not use running water to clean the BB 100.
Hazard of fatal electrical shock.
Using solvents is prohibited since the felt seals at the sides of the breaker arms could be damaged and/or grease packings could be washed out.
Cleaning
An industrial vacuum cleaner and a stable, long-handled brush are best suited for cleaning the BB 100.
