Conveyor Belt Rain Cover - Introduction
- Functions:
- Prevents rain from directly wetting conveyed materials, avoiding quality deterioration due to moisture.
- Reduces dust dispersion, minimizing environmental pollution and protecting the working environment.
- Shields conveyor belts from sunlight and rain, preventing belt aging and rusting of the frame, thus extending equipment service life.
- Structure:
- Composed of multiple cover units connected to each other. The cover is typically arched or curved to effectively disperse rain impact.
- Common types include fixed, openable, and observation-window styles, facilitating installation above the belt conveyor and later maintenance.
- Materials:
- Color steel plate: Relatively low cost, with certain strength and corrosion resistance.
- Stainless steel plate: Excellent corrosion resistance, suitable for high-demand environments.
- FRP (fiberglass reinforced plastic): Lightweight, high-strength, and weather-resistant.
- Installation Method:
- Fixed to the conveyor(support frame) via bolts, clips, or other connectors.
- Installed in a "pin" shape from one end of the frame to the other, secured to Z-shaped steel or rectangular tubes with self-tapping screws (at least 4 fixing points per panel). Overlap 1 or 2 corrugations during installation.
- Application Scenarios:
- Widely used in industries such as mining, ports, power plants, cement plants, steel mills, and chemical plants. Belt conveyors operating outdoors in these sites require rain covers to protect equipment operation and material quality.
