Conveyor belt cleaner accessories include two alternatives for holding return side belts flat and stable so secondary belt cleaners can work at peak efficiency.Flexco's expanding line of Eliminatora conveyor belt Cleaner Accessories is adding two alternatives for holding return side belts flat and stable so secondary belt cleaners can work at peak efficiency. The new Stabilizing Return Roller (SRR) and Stabilizing Roller Bracket Kit (SRBK) both position a hold-down roller on top of the return side belt, typically located 6in to 8in (150mm to 200mm) before or after the cleaner blades, to eliminate the problems of incomplete or inconsistent cleaning that result from flapping, cupped or low-tensioned belts. The SRR provides a complete assembly, including a 5in CEMA D roller and a set of mounting brackets that install easily on any conveyor structure, require only a 5in x 6in (125mm x 150mm) space, and allow both horizontal and vertical adjustment.
The roller is made of Exalon, an abrasion-resistant, non-corroding material with a low coefficient of friction, non-adhesive properties that minimize material buildup, and 20-30% less weight than steel rollers.
The standard SRR is available for belt widths from 24in to 60in (450mm to 1500mm), and a heavy-duty model, furnished with a 6in CEMA E Exalon roller, fits belt widths from 54in to 72in (1350mm to 1800mm).
The SRBK, intended for use with return rollers supplied from the user's on-site inventory, provides universal mounting brackets featuring a versatile roller retaining design that will accept the hex-head, round or square end caps of all commercially available CEMA C or CEMA D return rollers.
A heavy-duty model accepts CEMA E return rollers.
