Leakage of materials in Drag Chain Conveyor is a common problem in material transportation. It not only wastes raw materials and pollutes the factory area, but also aggravates equipment wear and tear, increases operation and maintenance costs, and restricts continuous production. Now, we have compiled 7 simple operation and maintenance solutions to address the leakage issue and ensure the stable operation of the equipment.
1.Select the appropriate model based on the working conditions
Based on the actual working conditions, material characteristics, conveying volume and conveying distance, select the appropriate type of buried Drag Chain Conveyor . Ensure that the sealing performance and carrying capacity of the equipment meet the production operation requirements, and prevent potential material leakage problems of the equipment from the very beginning.
2.Standardized Equipment Installation
Install the Drag Chain Conveyor strictly in accordance with the official manual of the equipment and industry standards. Ensure that the equipment is firmly installed and runs smoothly, eliminating problems such as loose components and abnormal vibrations of the equipment, and preventing material leakage from the equipment gaps.
3.Regular Equipment Cleaning
Regularly remove dust, debris and corrosive residues from the inside and outside of the Drag Chain Conveyor to prevent the accumulation of dirt and corrosion of the equipment, which could lead to the failure of seals and the overall stability of the equipment’s sealing performance.
4.Periodic Inspection and Maintenance
Conduct regular inspections of the chains, bearings, seals and other critical components of the Drag Chain Conveyor. Replace aging or damaged parts in a timely manner to maintain the equipment in a good working condition and prevent material leakage caused by component failures.
5.Standardized Lubrication Maintenance
Strictly follow the equipment operation specifications and select appropriate lubricants to conduct regular lubrication and maintenance for the Drag Chain Conveyorr. This effectively reduces component friction losses, delays component aging, and enhances the equipment’s sealing performance and overall service life.
6.Controlling Material Particle Size and Humidity
Strictly control the particle size and humidity of the conveyed materials to prevent rough materials from damaging the equipment and wet materials from seeping and leaking. This significantly reduces the occurrence probability of leakage faults in the Drag Chain Conveyor.
7.Installation of Intelligent Protection Devices
Protective equipment such as level gauges and pressure sensors are installed to match the Drag Chain Conveyor. When the equipment is overloaded or the internal pressure exceeds the limit, it can automatically alarm or stop, effectively preventing equipment deformation, seal damage and material leakage caused by overloading operation.
The excessive leakage of materials in the Drag Chain Conveyor is mainly caused by improper selection of the equipment, non-standard installation, insufficient maintenance, and improper control of the materials. Implementing the above 7 protective measures can effectively reduce equipment leakage faults, minimize losses, and ensure the stable and efficient operation of the equipment.
