Band Conveyor
The band conveyor is designed for transporting plastic waste. The conveyor is
constructed from steelbeam. The frame pieces are assembled with cross sections
and screw.
The conveyor can be fitted with a metal-free zone and a metal detector.
Safety
When performing any work with the band conveyor, both the circuit-breaker and
the main circuit-breaker must be “Off”. Alternatively, the connector must be
pulled out of the power point on the granulator’s electrical cabinet!
The conveyor is designed for plastic waste. Do not use the conveyor for tasks
other than it is intended for.
Nobody should be on the conveyor or step on it during operation.
If the conveyor has stopped due to an error, or if the emergency stop has been
pressed, it must not be re-started until the cause has been established and the
appropriate action has been taken.
Mobile conveyors must always be transported in a lowered position.
Warning! When using the conveyor belt with carriers: Be careful not to let
the carriers catch your foot, arm, or article of clothing.
Installation
When installing, adjust so that the band conveyor is balanced diagonally.
If the floor of the installation site is very uneven, it should be made even before
installation.
Electrical Connection
The band conveyor should be connected up by an authorised electrician.
Connect the cables to the electrical cabinet according to the markings and the
granulator’s electrical scheme (see Section 9). Alternatively, connect the band con-
veyor to the electrical cabinet with the connector.
Switch on the main circuit-breaker on the electrical cabinet. Press the start button
and check that the belt moves in the right direction.
If the belt moves in the wrong direction.
Shift the two phases in the connection to the contactor for the band conveyor in
the electrical cabinet. Alternatively, shift the two phases in the connection to the
connector.
