Clean Recycling
22 October 2013
BVC has completed a heavy duty industrial Centralised Vacuum Cleaning System. Installed into a recycling facility where cars are stripped down, recycling all materials for onward reuse saving materials from land fill.
The system has been sized for 2 operators using 76 mm bore hoses and tools able to employing a hose length of up to 15 metres, carrying out bulk removal duties. Alternatively the system can be used by 4 operators using 51 mm bore hoses and tools carrying out general housekeeping operations employing a hose length of up to 22.5 metres.Consideration had to be made to the light bulky products which are present on production equipment and building structure for the selection of hose sizes and onward filtration.
Due to some of the materials being bulky, light and fibrous, plenty of space was needed between the filters to ensure products are released from the media and had space to be released, therefore tubular fabric filters were selected for this application using the reverse jet technique for media ‘on-line’ cleaning to keep them in optimum working order. Products are continuously dispensed into skips below the outlet of the separator. Explosion protection and level control has been provided.
Motive air for the system is generated by an exhauster package which is powered by a 30 kW motor located on a self-tensioning drive arrangement, guard filter with pressure differential switch and all necessary auxiliaries. This is assembled within a force draft acoustic enclosure reducing noise emission levels to below 78 dB(A) at 1 metre measured under free field conditions.
