RULA design, manufacture and supply SSC for a wide range of applications
Description
The Submerged Scraper Conveyor (SSC) has been designed and optimised taking key elements and design considerations into consideration. These include parameters such as: - The boiler to trough hopper and trough hopper to water sealing arrangements - Efficient cooling & de-watering of the coarse ash - A reliable and efficient drive system - Adequate storage capacity - Sufficient conveying capacity during normal and backlog operating conditions - System operating life expectancy Different type of SSC conveyors RULA have experience of the following types of submerged scraper conveyor systems: - Scraper chain conveyors - Submerged belt scraper conveyor Design Features - High quality with durability and more than 98% availability - Well engineered trough to maximise storage capacity - Elegant and optimised material flow at transfer points - Single drive with optimum performance - Efficient incline design to optimise the carry capacity and improve dewatering of the ash, reducing system water consumption - Efficient diversion of ash if upstream conveyors are unavailable - Efficient Scraper flight and chain cleaning system - Removable or static conveyors can be engineered to suit boiler geometry or operator requirements - Single motor unit and Electro-hydraulic drive - Efficient water agitation system to reduce load on drive and mechanicals during high loading periods. - Industry standard OEM chain design for the arduous environment - Hydraulically operated chain tensioning unit to maintain appropriate chain tension. - Low water & power consumption - Reduced maintenance requirements and costs - Operational flexibility - Wear protected main and return troughs, and scrapers Material of construction specifications - Main steelwork: SANS 50025 Grade S 355 JR - Chutes: SANS 50025 Grade S 355 JR and 3CR12, Wear protection in high wear areas - Scraper flight: SANS 50025 Grade S 355 JR Wear protection (VRN500) in trough contact areas - Sprockets: Cast Steel with high strength and wear features. Individual replaceable teeth. - Shaft seals: SANS 50025 Grade S 275 JO with Ceramic, rubber lagging and bare steel - OR as per client requirements and specifications. Sizes Submerged scraper conveyors are designed and manufactured to suit any storage and conveying capacity to meet with your plant requirements Operating & Maintenance - The SSC conveyors are operator and maintenance friendly. - A typical complete Operating & Maintenance manual can be made available on request.
