Fire Resistant conveyor belt is a type of conveyor belt with excellent fire resistance performance, mainly used to prevent the occurrence and spread of fire accidents. Its working principle is to use special materials and structures to form a gas blocking layer in the event of a fire, preventing flames from spreading and spreading through the air, thereby greatly slowing down the diffusion speed of flames.
Definition and application scenarios of fire-resistant conveyor belts
Fireproof conveyor belts are widely used in industries such as mining, chemical, and food, and are important measures to ensure safe production. In the mining industry, fire-resistant conveyor belts can effectively prevent coal dust explosions and fires; In the chemical industry, it is used for the transportation of hazardous and flammable materials to avoid fire accidents; In the food industry, fire-resistant conveyor belts can reduce the spillage of food dust, ensuring the hygiene and cleanliness of production sites.
Classification and standards for fire-resistant conveyor belts
Fire resistant conveyor belts can be classified according to their materials and uses. For example, PVC and PVG flame retardant conveyor belts are suitable for different environments and conditions. PVC type is suitable for conveying materials under dry conditions, while PVG type is suitable for conveying materials with moisture.
The country has issued multiple standards for flame retardant conveyor belts, such as GB/T 20021-2005 "Flame retardant Conveyor Belts", MT147-2006 "Technical Conditions for Flame retardant Rubber Conveyor Belts for Coal Mines", and MT668-2008 "Technical Conditions for Flame retardant Steel Wire Rope Core Conveyor Belts for Coal Mines".
Advantages and application examples of fireproof conveyor belts
The advantages of fire-resistant conveyor belts include high strength, large capacity, and balanced transportation, as well as good flame retardancy, anti-static, impact resistance, wear resistance, corrosion resistance, and other properties.
In the coal mining industry, fire-resistant conveyor belts are essential safety equipment that can effectively prevent fire accidents from occurring; In the power industry, it is applied to the fuel and ash conveying system of power plants to ensure the safety and reliability of the conveying process.
