Fly Ash Drag Chain Conveyor Systems
Process Barron drag chain conveyor systems and troughs are manufactured for powerful ash handling conveying. Made from heavy duty, abrasion resistant steel that reduces wear & maintenance, our fly ash drag chain conveyors are durable and reliable. Drag chain conveyor systems from Process Barron come complete with motors, drives, couplings and gear reducers.
Drag chain ash conveyor designs from Process Barron allow horizontal, vertical and combination styles for high capacity ash conveying arrangements. We can achieve 70 degrees of incline with almost 100% conveying efficiency. Ash conveyor casings are designed for air/dust tight operation with replaceable wear liners for erosion protection.
Our typical ash conveyor design incorporates a single strand chain made of high strength drop forged CrMn steel. The forged links are heat treated to a surface hardness of 59/64 HRC to a depth of 0.7mm. We can also provide custom metallurgies and stainless steel conveyors for use in highly corrosive environments.
Additional drag chain conveyor design features include abrasion resistant, split hardened sprocket teeth with split hubs for easy replacement and unique shear pin roller chain drive sprockets for overload protection. All fly ash drag chain conveyors have special quick opening, tight shut-off, access doors of stainless steel construction at each end of the conveyor. All shafts have engineered, machined adjustable shaft seals at all casing penetrations for air & dust tight operation.
Bottom Ash Submerged Drag Chain Conveyor Systems
Submerged drag chain conveyor systems are a good solution for solid fuel boilers and furnaces that require tight air sealing while still allowing ash and other materials to be removed from the system.
Process Barron designs, fabricates and installs custom designed submerged drag chain systems for solid fuel bottom ash applications. Our bottom ash submerged drag chain conveyors feature special water-tight bearings and heavy duty welded chains that reduce stretching common with dual strand submerged conveyors.
