The Diagonal Plowcleans the belt in front of the tail pulley. It keeps lumps, rocks and other fugitive materials out of the tail pulley where they could cause damage to the belt, the mechanical splice, the lagging or the pulley. This is the versatile, economical solution for protecting the tail pulley, drive pulley, or gravity take-up pulleys from carryback materials.
Features and Benefits
• Reduces belt mistracking. Material build-up on a pulley causes belt mistracking problems which can lead to other problems on the conveyor. The RDP1 Diagonal Plow removes those materials before they get into the pulley and begin building up.
• Discharges to either side of the belt. The plow can be angled to discharge materials to either side of the belt, making it as convenient as possible for cleanup.
• Can be used anywhere on the beltline. The RDP1 Diagonal Plow can be installed on the side of the return belt anywhere there is a problem with materials falling onto the belt. Many times it is installed just behind the head pulley to dump carryback before it travels down the beltline.
• Economical. Durability and budget-conscious pricing make the Diagonal Plow very versatile. Replacement blades are also low cost.
