Principle of powder pneumatic conveying equipment

• The principle of powder pneumatic conveying equipment is to use the energy of air flow to transport powder materials in the direction of air flow in a closed pipeline. This equipment usually consists of a material receiver, a conveyor pipe, an air duct, a separator, an air lock and a fan. The function of the material receiver is to enter the material, resulting in a suitable material-to-air ratio, so that the material can start and accelerate; the function of the separator is to separate the material from the air, and to sort the material; the air lock is used to uniformly supply or unload materials , while preventing air from leaking in; the fan provides power to the system.
• ‌The application scenarios of powder pneumatic conveying equipment‌ are very wide, including cement plants, alumina plants, thermal power plants, etc. It is suitable for transporting cement raw meal powder, alumina powder, fly ash and other powder particles. This equipment has the characteristics of simple structure, convenient operation, and can be transported over long distances. During the transportation process, it can simultaneously perform physical operations such as heating, cooling, and drying of materials.

The role of powder pneumatic conveying equipment

• Powder pneumatic conveying equipment is mainly used to transport powdery or granular materials. It has the following main functions:
• ‌Good dust-proof effect‌: During the transportation process, powder pneumatic conveying equipment can effectively prevent dust from flying and reduce environmental pollution.
• ‌Facilitates mechanization and automation‌: This equipment can reduce labor intensity, save manpower, and facilitate mechanization and automation operations.
• ‌Multiple process operations‌: During the transportation process, multiple process operations such as mixing, crushing, sorting, drying, and cooling can be performed simultaneously.

Application scenarios of powder pneumatic conveying equipment

• Powder pneumatic conveying equipment is widely used in the following industries and scenarios:
• ‌‌Casting, ‌Chemical industry, ‌Pharmaceutical, ‌Grain industry‌: Suitable for conveying particles and powder materials that are not easily broken.
• ‌‌Textile, ‌food, ‌electronics, ‌plastics, medicine, ‌packaging and other industries‌: used for pneumatic pipeline transportation of lightweight materials.
• ‌Lithium-ion battery industry‌: used in the production and processing of positive and negative electrode materials, with the characteristics of high automation and clean production.

What is the maximum height that powder pneumatic conveying equipment can convey?

• In practical applications, the height of negative pressure pneumatic conveying depends on many factors, including material properties, conveying distance, diameter of conveying pipes, air flow speed, etc. For lighter materials, such as cement, lime, etc., the conveying height of negative pressure pneumatic conveying can reach 50 meters or even higher. But for heavier materials, such as calcium powder, boiler ash, etc., due to their high density, the conveying height is usually about 10-15 meters.
• It should be noted that the higher the conveying height, the higher the requirements for conveying air flow. The conveying resistance increases, and the flow and pressure of compressed air need to be increased. This will not only increase energy consumption, but also increase equipment costs. Therefore, in practical applications, factors such as material properties, conveying distance, and pipe diameter need to be comprehensively considered to determine the appropriate conveying height and conveying method to achieve energy-saving conveying.

High voltage pulse dust collector

• Institutional principles
• The dust collector is divided into four parts: the upper box, the middle box, the lower box and the injection system. There is a flower board isolation between the upper box and the middle box, making the upper box a clean air chamber and the middle box It is a dust chamber with bags installed on the ceiling. When the dusty gas in the dust bin enters the dust air chamber of the middle box, the dust is blocked on the outside of the bag, and the filtered air enters the clean air chamber of the upper box and is then discharged into the atmosphere through the outlet.
• As the operation continues, the dust attached to the bag accumulates more and more. The longer the time, the greater the resistance of the bag, the smaller the exhaust volume, which will affect the normal operation of the dust collector. For this reason, we designed a pulse reaction system. Dust blowing system. The pulse backflush cleaning system is controlled by a pulse controller. The dust on the outer surface of the bag is regularly cleaned. The dust cleaning is done round by round, so the normal operation of the dust collector is not affected during dust cleaning. The dust swept down by dust cleaning falls directly into the dust bin, and no special staff is required. The dust removal work of the dust collector.
• According to the design requirements of the dust removal system, the dust collector must also be equipped with a fan to force the ash warehouse to exhaust and reduce the pressure in the ash warehouse, thereby ensuring the safety of the ash warehouse.

Working principle

• The compressed air flow ejected from the blow hole attracts the surrounding air and sprays it into the venturi tube and then enters the bag. Due to the sudden expansion of the gas, the bag vibrates and the gas passes rapidly from the inside of the bag to the outside of the bag, causing the adhesion to the bag. The dust on the surface of the bag breaks away from the bag.

High voltage pulse dust collector

Rotary feeder working principle

• The working principle of the rotary feeder is to make the rotor with blades rotate in the cylindrical casing through the transmission of the motor and reducer, thereby realizing the transportation and unloading of materials. ‌Material falls from the upper hopper and fills the space between the blades. As the blades rotate, they reach the lower part and are discharged. Rotary feeders are usually equipped with a pressure equalizing exhaust port to reduce the phenomenon of gas ejection and ensure the smooth fall of materials. This equipment plays a role in uniform and continuous feeding of materials in the pneumatic conveying system, and has the functions of unloading and air locking in the separation and dust collection parts of the system.

Roots rotary lobe blower manual

• Precautions when using Roots blower:
• All parts of the fan should be comprehensively inspected to see whether the parts are complete, the tightness of the connection of each bolt and nut, the installation quality of each fastener and positioning pin, the installation quality of the intake and exhaust pipes and valves, etc.
• In order to ensure the safe operation of the blower, no external loads such as pipes, valves, frames, etc. are allowed to be carried.
• Check the centering and alignment quality of the blower and motor.
• 
• Check whether the base of the unit is fully padded and whether the anchor bolts are tight.
• Inject the specified grade of mechanical oil into the oil tank to the oil level line. The lubricating oil grade is N220 medium-load working gear oil.
• Check whether the motor steering meets the pointing requirements.
• A belt cover (protective cover) should be installed at the pulley (coupling) to ensure safe operation.
• Open all the blower inlet and exhaust valves, and rotate the fan rotor. It should rotate flexibly without impact or friction. Only after confirming that everything is normal can the fan be started for trial operation.
• No-load test operation of the blower.
  ⑴ Newly installed or overhauled fans should undergo no-load test operation.
  ⑵The concept of no-load operation of Roots blower is to put it into operation with the intake and exhaust valves fully open.
  ⑶ There is no abnormal smell, smoke, collision or friction sound, and the radial vibration speed of the bearing part is not greater than 6.3mm/s.
  ⑷ Run without load for about 30 minutes. If the situation is normal, it can be put into operation with load. If abnormal operation is found, it is still necessary to conduct a test run with no load after inspection and elimination.
• roots rotary lobe blower manual
• 
• The blower operates normally under load.
  ⑴ It is required to adjust gradually and slowly, and bring the load up to the rated load. It is not allowed to adjust to the rated load at one time.
  ⑵The so-called rated load refers to the static pressure difference between the inlet and exhaust ports, according to the calibrated pressure value on the nameplate. When the exhaust port pressure is normal, attention must be paid to the pressure changes at the air inlet to avoid overloading.
  ⑶ During normal operation of the fan, it is strictly forbidden to completely close the inlet and exhaust valves. Pay attention to regularly observing the pressure to see whether the safety valve operates to exhaust when overloaded. Otherwise, the safety valve should be adjusted in time to avoid overload operation.
  ⑷Due to the characteristics of the Roots blower, the gas from the exhaust port is not allowed to flow directly back into the air inlet of the blower for a long time (changing the temperature of the automatic lubricating oil inlet port), otherwise it will definitely affect the safety of the machine. If necessary If backflow regulation is used, cooling measures must be taken.
  ⑸ Always pay attention to the oil level of the lubricating oil, check regularly, and make records to ensure the oil level. The equipment maintenance of Roots blower can be carried out by automatically injecting lubricating oil.
• Parking
  The blower should not be stopped suddenly when it is fully loaded. It must be gradually unloaded before stopping to avoid damaging the machine. Regarding the emergency stop principle, the user can formulate separate detailed rules.
• The safe operation and service life of the blower depend on correct and frequent maintenance and care, and attention should be paid to the signs of any accidents. In addition to paying attention to general maintenance regulations, the following points should be paid attention to.

How does a roots rotary lobe blower work?

• Roots blower consists of two gear rotors and a shell that mesh with each other. One gear rotor is the stator and the other gear rotor is the rotor.
• When the rotor rotates, the gas is sucked into the air inlet of the Roots blower and pushed into the compression chamber between the gear rotors. The exhaust port discharges compressed gas from the compression chamber and pushes the object forward.
• As the rotor and stator rotate, the compression chamber with decreasing volume moves to the exhaust side, and the gas is continuously compressed and then discharged.
• The gear rotor rotates to the new air inlet position, the new compression chamber begins to compress the gas, and the compressed gas moves forward and is discharged.
• This movement process continues, creating air flow to push the gas forward. In this way, the Roots blower achieves the purpose of compressing and discharging gas by removing the volume of the gas compression chamber.

What is an sewage aeration fan?

• An sewage ‌aeration fan‌ is a device used to force gas into a body of water or liquid. It uses high-pressure fans or blowers to force air or other gases into water or liquid through conveying equipment and diffusion equipment. This process is called blast aeration.

Working principle

• The working principle of an sewage aeration fan is to blow air into the water body through a high-speed rotating impeller. Under the action of centrifugal force and inertia, the air at the outlet of the impeller acquires sufficient kinetic energy and potential energy to radiate and diffuse in the direction perpendicular to the pump axis. At the same time, longitudinal stirring and mixing occur between the air and the water body, causing the dissolved oxygen in the water body to rapidly increase.

What is the purpose of the aeration blower?

• ‌The main uses of aeration blowers include the following aspects‌:
• ‌Water treatment and sewage treatment‌: Aeration blowers purify water quality by blowing air into the water to form bubbles, provide sufficient oxygen, and promote the respiration and metabolism of aquatic organisms.
• During the water treatment process, the aeration blower can increase the concentration of dissolved oxygen in the water, helping harmful organisms in the sewage to be oxidized, degraded or adsorbed, thereby achieving the purpose of purifying water quality.
• ‌Sludge Treatment‌: In sludge treatment systems, aeration blowers are used for aeration and mixing. It can provide sufficient oxygen supply to the bacteria in the sludge, promote the anaerobic degradation of the sludge to produce methane and other useful substances, and volatilize harmful gases, thereby achieving the purpose of purifying the sludge.

How do roots air blowers work?

• Roots blower is a commonly used compressed air equipment. Its working principle is mainly realized by two counter-rotating Roots drums.
• The two Roots drums are connected through gear transmission or belt transmission.
• Each Roots drum is supported by a central bearing and has toothed blades at both ends of the bearing.
• When the Roots blower is running, the two Roots drums rotate in opposite directions, and the toothed blades mesh with each other.
• As the Roots drum rotates, the toothed blades gradually leave the suction side and move toward the exhaust side, forming a closed ‌ Sealed chamber.
• When the toothed blade moves from the suction side to the exhaust side, the volume in the sealed chamber gradually decreases, and the gas is compressed and gradually discharged in the high-pressure area.
• At the same time, during the exhaust stage, new gas enters the suction side through the inlet to prepare for the next round of compression and exhaust.

Structural features of Roots blower

How does a roots type blower work

• Roots blower works with two rotors meshing with each other. When the gear drives the rotor to rotate, relative motion occurs between the two rotors, thereby forming airflow. One of the rotors is called the main rotor and the other is the passive rotor. The gear of the main rotor drives the passive rotor, which rotates simultaneously but in opposite directions.
• Gas is continuously entered and discharged in the gap between the two rotors, thereby generating pressure or extracting exhaust gas.

how does a roots type blower work

Roots blower structural features:

• The rotor and casing of Roots blowers are usually made of high-strength alloy materials to ensure their durability and stability.
• The rotor surface is covered with coating to reduce internal friction and wear.
• In addition, the Roots blower is equipped with a cooling system to ensure the heat dissipation effect of the equipment during long-term operation.

Root blower working principle

• The working principle of the Roots blower is to separate the air inlet and exhaust port through the "meshing" of a pair of rotors. The rotors are driven by a pair of synchronous gears to rotate at a constant speed in opposite directions, and the inhaled gas is discharged from the air without internal compression. The suction port moves to the exhaust port. The moment the gas reaches the exhaust port, it is pressurized and transported due to the return flow of high-pressure gas on the exhaust side. ‌‌
• Roots blower is a positive displacement blower. Its working principle is based on the relative movement of two blade-shaped rotors in the cylinder to compress and transport gas. This type of blower has a simple structure and is easy to manufacture. It is widely used in aquaculture oxygenation, sewage treatment aeration, cement transportation and other occasions. It is especially suitable for gas transportation and pressurization systems in low-pressure situations, and can also be used as a vacuum pump. There is a certain gap between the rotors of the Roots blower and they do not contact each other. This design allows the impeller to rotate without friction and does not require lubrication. Its operating temperature is usually not greater than 40°C.

Roots blower specifications

Roots blower pressure range

• Roots blower is a commonly used gas delivery equipment, and its pressure range is crucial for different applications.
• Generally speaking, the pressure range of Roots blower is between 9.8kpa and 200kpa, which is equivalent to 0.0098mpa to 0.2mpa.
• This range covers both lower pressure and medium pressure requirements, making Roots blowers widely used in a variety of industrial fields.
• It is worth noting that although Roots blowers have a certain pressure range, the specific working pressure needs to be adjusted based on actual usage and flow requirements.
• For example, in some situations where high pressure output is required, it may be necessary to select a Roots blower with a higher pressure upper limit, or to increase the output pressure of the blower through other means.

Tri lobe blower

What is a tri lobe blower?

• The three-blade Roots blower is a commonly used volumetric fan. It is mainly composed of three intermeshing impellers (rotors), so it is also called a three-blade Roots blower. The working principle of this blower is based on the spatial changes between the impellers to compress and transport gas.
• Specifically, when two impellers mesh and rotate with each other, the space between them will periodically expand and contract as the impellers rotate, thereby sucking in gas and compressing the gas between the impellers, and finally discharging the compressed gas. go out. In this way, the Roots blower can suck in air and compress it in continuous rotation to achieve the purpose of transporting gas.

The main features of the three-blade Roots blower include:

• 1.High efficiency: The design of the three-blade Roots blower can achieve high efficiency and maintain efficient gas delivery even when operating at low speed.
• 2.Low noise: Due to the large gaps between the impellers and between the impellers and the casing, the noise generated during operation is low.
• 3.The transported gas is pure: Since there is no metal contact between the impellers, gases containing solid particles or viscous components can be transported without causing secondary pollution to the gas.
• 4.Simple structure: The structure of the three-blade Roots blower is relatively simple, mainly composed of an impeller, a casing and a transmission system, which is easy to maintain and maintain.
• 5.Stable operation: The impellers rotate in the same direction, making the fan operate smoothly and with little vibration.
• 6.Wide range: It has a wide range of applications and can be used in chemical industry, environmental protection, water treatment, food, pharmaceutical and other industries.

What is the difference between twin lobe and tri lobe blowers?

• 1.Number of leaves
• The main difference between a two-blade fan and a three-blade fan is the number of blades. A two-blade fan has only two blades, while a three-blade fan has three blades.
• 2.Functions and usage
• There are also differences in functions and usage between two-blade fans and three-blade fans. Double-blade fans are suitable for situations where the air volume is small, such as ventilation, cooling and heat dissipation. The three-blade fan is suitable for situations with large air volume, such as air conditioning and refrigeration, generator cooling, factory workshops, etc.
• 3.Noise and vibration
• Two-blade fans have less noise and vibration than three-blade fans. However, when running at high speed, the double-blade fan is prone to instability, which affects its service life.
• 4.Efficiency
• Due to the structural characteristics of the three-blade fan, it can better adapt to high-speed movement and has a larger flow rate, so it is highly efficient. The double-blade fan performs better at low speeds, but its efficiency gradually decreases at high speeds.

Advantages and Disadvantages of Two-Blade Fans and Three-Blade Fans

• 1.Advantages and disadvantages of double blade fan
• Double-blade fans have smaller power consumption and lower prices, and are suitable for situations with small air volume and low power. At the same time, it is also easier to clean and maintain, so it is loved by many users. However, the noise and vibration of the double-blade fan are relatively large, and it is prone to instability at high speeds.
• 2.Advantages and disadvantages of three-blade fans
• The three-blade fan has relatively high efficiency and is suitable for occasions with large air volume and high power. Because it has more blades, it can handle high-speed movements more easily. At the same time, the noise and vibration of the three-blade fan are smaller. However, due to its complex structure, maintenance and cleaning are difficult, and the price is relatively high.
