Belt Cleaners are used to clean Conveyor Belts.
Advantages
- As far forward (as close to the conveyor discharge) as possible.
- Positioned out of the material flow.
- Designed to minimize risk to belt, splice, and cleaner itself.
- Designed to stand up to “worst case” conditions.
- Designed for ease of maintenance, including simple blade replacement and reduced frequency of re-tensioning.
Types of Belt Cleaners
Pre-Cleaner
Installed on the face of the head pulley below the discharge trajectory, this cleaner uses low pressure to remove approximately 75 to 90 percent of the residual material.
Secondary Cleaner
Installed at the point where the belt leaves the head (discharge) pulley, or further along the return where space permits, these systems remove the remaining material.
Tertiary cleaner
Are installed as required by conditions.
Multiple-cleaner
This system is now the standard for applications on belt conveyors carrying all types of bulk materials. End-users have accepted it almost universally
