Safety

2.3 Protective Equipment

• The Jaw Crusher BB 600 can only be started when the collecting receptacle has been inserted into the base frame.

• A limit switch behind the collecting receptacle prevents the machine starting in an unsafe state.

• Removing the collecting receptacle results in the grinding process stopping immediately.

• The motor protection switch turns the drive motor off when the jaws are blocked.

• In the event of danger, the machine can be shut down at any time by pressing the

emergency stop button .

2.4 Intended use

The Jaw Crusher BB 600 is suitable for grinding medium to extremely hard substances and for brittle and hard ductile materials.

The machine has been designed for 8-hour single shift operation. Use is only permitted in the laboratory by appropriately trained and qualified staff.

2.5 Improper use

The Jaw Crusher BB 600 is not designed for continuous operation. Use in the private sphere

and for applications other than those set out in the “Intended use” chapter is not permitted.

Repairs and modifications may only be carried out by Retsch GmbH by an authorised representative, or by qualified service technicians.

3.1 Use of the Device for the Intended Purpose

Das

The Jaw Crusher BB 600 is suitable for grinding medium to medium-hard substances and brittle and hard ductile materials.

The machine can be used to grind the following materials:

• Concrete

• Ores

• Rocks

• Glass

• Ceramics

• Coal

• Minerals

• Slag

• Cement clinker

NOTICE

N3.0007

Range of application of the device

Long-term operation

− This laboratory device is designed for eight-hour single-shift operation with a duty cycle of 30 %.

• This device may not be used as a production machine nor is it intended for continuous operation.

3.2 Principle of Operation

The Jaw Crusher BB 600 is tough and powerful. The feed material passes through the splash-free hopper and into the grinding chamber. Grinding takes place in the wedge-shaped shaft between the jaws. The feed material is crushed and moved downwards by the elliptical motion. The sample falls into a removable collecting receptacle as soon as it is finer than the smallest discharge gap width. The infinitely variable adjustment of the gap width ensures an optimum setting for the feed material and for the desired final fineness level.

3.3 Dimensions and Weight

Height: ~1,575 mm Width: ~1,073 mm Depth: ~1,456 mm Weight: ~1,300 kg net

Technical Data

3.4 Required Floor Space

Width of floorspace: 1,080 mm Depth of floorspace: 1,500 mm

No safety distance is required! A space of around 50 cm should be planned on the left-hand side of the machine for better operability.

Technical Data

3.6 Rated Power

15000 watts

3.7 Degree of Protection

− IP 55

3.8 Emissions

Noise data

Noise measurement in accordance with DIN 45635-31-01-KL3 Noise levels are significantly influenced by the properties of the sample material.

Example 1:

Sound power level LWA = 101.7 dB(A) Workplace-related emissions value L

pAeq

= 89.5 dB(A)

Operating conditions :

Feed material : marble pebbles, particle size <90 mm Set gap width: < 6 mm Final particle size: < 10 mm Fill level of the grinding chamber: approx. 65 %

Example 2:

Sound power level LWA = 102 dB(A) Workplace-related emissions value L

pAeq

= 90 dB(A)

Operating conditions:

Feed material: quartz pebbles, particle size <55 mm Set gap width: < 6 mm Final particle size: < 10 mm Fill level of the grinding chamber: approx. 65 %

CAUTION

C4.0045

Damage to hearing

A high noise level may arise depending on the type of the material, the jaws used and the duration of grinding

− Excessive noise in terms of level and duration can cause impairments or lasting damage to hearing.

• Suitable sound insulation measures must be provided or hearing protection worn.
