Central vacuum cleaning/bulk removal system
November 1st 2011 To maintain and manage a clean
environment where
conventional vacuum cleaners
were not a suitable solution, BVC has
handed over a central vacuum
cleaning/bulk removal system for a
minerals processing company, serving
a number of floors for removal of
calcium carbonate granules (up to
40mm) and powders.
The solution comprises a pipe
work system which interconnects
strategically positioned hose connection
points. These are connected to a
vacuum plant comprising filter
separator and exhauster package.
Materials are entrained into the
airstream and conveyed to the filter
separator, where heavier solids are
disengaged, dropping down into the
hopper section with lighter materials
and conveying air rising towards the
filtration media, which is cleaned by
reverse jet. Products are dispensed by
a double dump valve into a screw
conveyor returning the collected
materials back into the process.
BVC also supplied the control
panel housing, the exhauster,
ventilation fan, motor starters and
contacts with all instrumentation and
provision of contacts so the system is
connected to the client's BMS. More articles from Quirepace Ltd (BVC): |
