Hardy systems location is in Northbrook Illinois. This conveyor system was originally designed in September of 1996 and utilizes negative pressure for moving material. All components on this system, along with the original files and drawings, can still be replaced through Hardy systems.
Components
The conveyor system is made up of several components.
The Filter Receiver is approximately 12 foot tall by 51 inches wide, with a 36 inch by 41 inch platform made out of 19-W-4 C.STL Grating. The access platform for the receiver has an 8 foot ladder with 1 foot center to center spacing on the rungs. The ladder feet are 4”x 4” x 3/8” thick, with a 13/16 inch hole in the center for mounting. The receiver is supported by (4) 4”x 4” x 3/8” structural angle, with 6”x6”x ½” thick base pads. The base pads are pre-drilled with a 13/16” hole in the center for mounting. The material discharge chute on the filter receiver is flanged down to 8 inches in diameter, with a dual gate discharge valve.
The tube sheet contains 24 filter bags with a Tetratex membrane. They are approximately 54 inches in length. They are mounted onto Galvanized bag cages. The platform scale Model Number HILP 4610 has a capacity of 10,000 pounds. It requires 8 SCFM of compressed air at 90-100 PSIG for pulse cleaning.
Exterior C. STL surfaces are power tooled cleaned, solvent wiped and coated with:
Sherwin-William KEM KROMIK, Modified Alkyd Resin Metal Primer (B50Z Series)@ 2 MILS D.F.T. (Brown/Red)
Sherwin-Williams Medium Oil Alkyd Industrial Enamel (B54 Series) @ 3 MILS
D.F.T. color-White
The solenoids and timer are pre-wired and mounted in the same enclosure. The diaphragm valves are pre-connected to respective solenoids with ¼” tubing(NYFL).
The unit is designed for a maximum temperature of 275 degrees Fahrenheit with an operating temperature of 180 degrees Fahrenheit. The plenums, tube sheet, and hopper are made out of 10 Ga. C. STL.
The approximate shipping weight is 1800 pounds.
The Vacuum pump assembly has a 60 H.P. dual voltage (460/230 volt, 3PH) motor with safety switch made by Square D. The vacuum pump and motor can be surrounded by an acoustical enclosure. The enclosure is made from 16 GA. Galvanized exterior panels and 22 GA. Perforated interior panels, with 4 Lb./Ft. of Mineral wool absorption material. There are 12 panels to complete the enclosure.
The Heat Exchanger is approximately 100 inches long, 36 inches wide and 56 inches high. The controls are located inside a NEMA 4 Hoffman enclosure. There is a ½ H.P. dual voltage (230/460 3 PH) motor. There is an inline filter assembly connected to the exchanger. The support structure is constructed with 3”x3”x ¼”angle iron. The finish is with primer paint and Blue Enamel.
The piping and elbows are made from 5 inch Schedule 80, and Schedule 40 carbon steel pipe. The pickup manifolds are made from ¼ inch carbon steel and Schedule 40 pipe. They are coated with a standard Blue Enamel. The Fine Screen assembly has a ½ H.P. dual voltage (230/460 3 PH) motor.
