Full analysis of the application of Roots blower in pneumatic conveying
Dear friend, have you also encountered problems such as low material conveying efficiency and environmental pollution caused by flying dust? As the core equipment of pneumatic conveying system, Roots blower can help you solve these problems. Today we will talk about this industrial weapon!
Why choose Roots blower for power conveying?
1 * * Stable and Reliable * *: Roots blower adopts a volumetric working principle, and the output air volume is almost unaffected by pressure changes, making it particularly suitable for conveying systems that require constant airflow.
2 * * Energy saving * *: Compared to other types of fans, Roots blowers have higher energy efficiency in the medium pressure range (0.1-0.5 bar), and long-term use can save a lot of electricity costs.
3 * * Simple maintenance * *: Compact structure, no internal friction parts, only regular replacement of lubricating oil and air filter element is needed for daily use.
Design points of pneumatic conveying system
1 * * Fan selection * *: Calculate the required air volume and pressure based on the conveying distance and material characteristics. It is usually recommended to choose a model that is 10-15 larger than the calculated value.
2 * * Pipeline Layout * *: Minimize the number of bends as much as possible, and recommend a bend radius of ≥ 5 times the pipe diameter to prevent material deposition and blockage.
3 * * Separation device * *: A cyclone separator or bag filter should be installed at the end to ensure material recovery rate.
Common problems and solutions
1 * * Material blockage * *: Check if the air volume is sufficient, if there are any air leaks in the pipeline, and add blowing aids if necessary.
2 * * Excessive noise * *: Install a muffler, check if the shock absorption of the fan base is good, and if the pipeline is firmly fixed.
3 * * High temperature * *: Ensure that the cooling system is working properly, check whether the lubricating oil is sufficient, and whether the environmental ventilation is good.
Operation and maintenance tips
1 * * Pre start check * *: Confirm the status of the inlet and outlet valves, check the oil level, and manually turn the disc to confirm that there are no blockages.
2 * * Operation monitoring * *: Regularly record parameters such as current, pressure, temperature, etc., and promptly troubleshoot any abnormal fluctuations.
3 * * Regular maintenance * *: Replace lubricating oil, clean or replace air filter element every 2000-3000 hours of operation.
Remember, proper design and standardized maintenance are key to ensuring the long-term stable operation of Roots blowers. I hope these experiences can help you better utilize this pneumatic conveying solution!
