ESPLV – High-Speed Continuous Bucket Elevator

Description

Know About ESPLV – High-Speed Continuous Bucket Elevator

Suitable for handling very large capacities (up to 1,500 m3/h or more). Can also be used at medium speeds similarly to those used on ESP Bucket elevators; part of the material is discharged by flowing onto the back of the preceding bucket. When used at medium speed, medium-sized materials can be lifted (70 – 80 mm). Elevator with chains connecting buckets that are driven by toothed wheels.

• Acceptable material grain size (mm): 0 – 60
• Recommended speed (m/s): 0.90 – 1.60
• Acceptable centre-to-centre distance (m): 80

Construction specifications:

• High-capacity continuous buckets, with extended sides in the area where material is expected to flow off.
• Drive wheels with interchangeable toothed segments for driving the chains.
• Toothed return wheels for improved chain guidance.
• Link chains with side plates, pins and fixed bushings, with attachments for connecting the buckets.
• Tangential feed inlet on idle station.
• Tangential discharge outlet on drive station.
• Standard parallel tensioning system with counterweight. Hydraulic tensioning system also available.
• Type of discharge: tangential – centrifugal (partly also gravity discharge when medium speeds are used).
