Photo Eye Controlled Air Operated Pallet Accumulating Drag Chain Conveyor

Standard Specifications

Frame — 9" x 7 gauge powder painted formed steel channel frames. Sections are bolted together with splice plates and floor supports.

Chain — (2) 60F single pitch conveyor chains, straight side bar, on 36" centers.

Chain Guide — Keystock.

Floor Supports — 24” to top of chain. One support supplied at each end of conveyor and at each bed joint.

Motor — 1 HP 230/460-3-60 TE motor, C-Face. Motor and speed reducer are located underneath conveyor frame.

Speed Reducer — Heavy duty worm gear for C-Faced mounted motor.

Sprockets — Hardened sprockets with 115/16" diameter CRS drive shaft.

Bearings — Sealed, pre-lubricated with cast iron housing.

Accumulation Zones — Standard zones are 60" long with a maximum of 20 zones per single drive. Each zone is driven by an air clutch and controlled by a photo eye.

Power Supply — 120VAC power supply controls accumulation feature with 24VDC output. Power supply will control 50 accumulation zones.

Sensing Device — Photo electric sensor in each zone. Detects product presence and activates accumulation feature if downstream zone is occupied.

Speed — 30 FPM constant speed.

Capacity — 15,000 lbs. maximum distributed live load at 30 FPM. Unit (pallet / product) load maximum is 3,000 lbs. for 5’ lg. zone. Maximum motor size 3 HP.

Optional Equipment

Elevation — 12” minimum (with adjustment to 13”) to top of chain, made available by modification. Contact factory.

Accumulation Zones — 48", 54", and 72" long. Frame lengths change with zone lengths. For other zone lengths, contact factory.

Diffused Photo Eyes — To be used when retro-reflective photo eyes can't be used due to product interference.

Motors — Single phase, energy efficient.

Chain Centers — Other chain centers and multiple chains available, 18" minimum chain centers. Contact factory.

Speeds — For speeds greater than 30 FPM, contact factory.

Electrical Controls — Magnetic starters and push button stations; manual motor starters with overload protection, others.
