SECTION – I
In the marshalling yard of 2x300 TPH Coal Pet coke fired steam generators at SURATGARH, Rajasthan,
coal loaded in Broad Gauge open wagons will be unloaded to four nos. of wagon tippler hoppers by
four nos. SUT type wagon tippler (named as WT-1, WT-2, WT-3 & WT-4) on main track. 4 nos. of 50T
Side-arm-charger has been provided to work as wagon-marshalling machine for 4 nos. of WT hopper.
This charger runs on its own track alongside & parallel to main track. In-haul wheel chock is provided
on inhaul side of the main rail track to prevent "rolling" of wagons onto tippler platform during
tipping cycle. Wheel chocks are provided at the wagon tippler named as WT-1, WT-2, WT-3 & WT-4.
From R.C.C made hopper beneath tippler, coal will be reclaimed by Apron Feeder below WT and will
discharge to conveyor.
Just after Wagon Tippler, SAC pushes the empty wagons towards exit track. Out-haul wheel chock is
provided on outhaul side of the exit rail track to prevent "rolling" of wagons onto tippler platform
during tipping cycle.
1) Hauling of the incoming train of 59 full wagons by one wagon length at a time, up to a
position adjacent to the Tippler.
2) After manual uncoupling of the lead wagon, hauling the separated lead wagon onto the
Tippler platform for unloading.
3) After completion of tippling operation, SAC pushes the empty wagon clear of the unloading
system on to the exit track.
This typical combination of SUT Wagon Tippler & Side Arm Charger arrangement is employed to
achieve an efficient and mechanized working cycle of wagon unloading.

Plant Arrangement :-
The Wagon tippler is a simple and compact machine. It unloads one wagon at a time by
inverting the loaded wagon over a ground hopper and discharges material into the ground
hopper located beneath the Tippler.
Independent hydraulic locking cylinders are used to support the side of the car and clamp
the car securely during Tippler rotation.
The Tippler is designed to be fully compliant with the latest requirements of RDSO
Technical Pamphlet G-33; Revision-1, dated May 2010. The general description and major
parameters of the machine are mentioned in subsequent pages.
The Tippler is a cylindrical shaped cage structure, and consists of an Entry and Exit End
Frame, Clamp Beam, Side Beam and Rail Platform. This forms a rigid open cage structure;
each End Ring is mounted on one pivot shaft, the supports are positioned at the side of the
Tippler at ground level.
End Frames
Two End Frames, one positioned at each end of the Tippler, are fabricated as heavy steel
shaped structures. The End Frames are connected together by the Clamp Girder, Side Beam
LARSEN & TOUBRO LIMITED
ECC Division – EDRC
An open segmental gear rack is mounted around part of the circumference on both the End
Frame, which engages with the Tippler drive pinions.
The Rail Platform is a heavy steel fabricated box section, which carries a section of rail track
through the structure, and is of sufficient length to accommodate the longest wagons to be
handled. The Platform acts as a bridge between the End Frames and is designed to support
the heaviest wagons on a cyclic basis during unloading and the passage of locomotives on
an infrequent basis as required.
Walk and access ways are mounted on both sides of the Rail Platform to facilitate foot
traffic and maintenance activities.
The SUT Platform Grippers uses 4 hydraulic cylinders which extend until the gripper bars
contacts the inner & outer sides of the wagon wheels. Pressure in the circuit is
maintained to secure the wagon to the SUT Platform.
A land mounted hydraulic power pack driven by an AC electric motor and pump unit
provides the hydraulic supply to the Platform Grippers. This unit can be common with the
Clamp Gear / Moving Side Pad unit.
Side Beam
The Side Beam is a long heavy steel fabricated box section, which connects the End
Frames at the mid-vertical point. The Side Beam accommodates the mounting of an
integral moveable Side support beam and is designed as the ultimate support for the
heaviest wagons on a cyclic basis during the unloading operation.
In conjunction with the Rail Platform and Clamp Girder, the Side Beam acts to transmit
vertical and torsional loads throughout the Cage Structure and ensure the Cage acts as a
homogeneous structure during rotation. Similar to the function of the Rail Platform,
connections of the Side Beam to the End Frames are carefully designed to avoid high
stress concentrations and minimize the effects of fatigue.
LARSEN & TOUBRO LIMITED
ECC Division – EDRC
Cast drive gear racks are fitted to the periphery of driven side End Frame via a heavy
fixing plates fabricated into the Frame structure. These racks engage with the ground
mounted Drive Unit to facilitate the controlled rotational movement of the Tippler.
The SUT Moving Side Pad uses 4 hydraulic cylinders which extend at low pressure until
the pad contacts the side of the wagon. When the pad stops moving the hydraulic circuit
will lock preventing movement in both directions.
A land mounted hydraulic power pack driven by an AC electric motor and pump unit
provides the hydraulic supply to the Moving Side Pad cylinders. This unit can be common
with the Clamp Gear.
LARSEN & TOUBRO LIMITED
ECC Division – EDRC
The SUT clamp gear uses 2 cylinders to lower the clamp beams onto the top of the
wagon. The cylinders are locked to restrain the wagon in the SUT.
Each of the 6 clamp beams is equipped with hydraulic cylinders to compensate for any
un-evenness in the top of the wagon and to relieve the bogie spring force that is released
when the load is tipped from the wagon.
A land mounted hydraulic power pack driven by an AC electric motor and pump unit
provides the hydraulic supply to the Clamp Gear. This unit can be common with the
Moving Side Pad.
Drive Units
The SUT rotation drive uses 4 pinions (2 at each end frame) engaging with racks around
the end frame. Each pinion is directly coupled to a Poclain braked hydraulic motor. A land
mounted hydraulic power pack driven by an AC electric motor and pump unit supplies
hydraulic fluid to the drives. Closed loop speed control is incorporated in the power pack.
An encoder is fitted to supply positional information to the drive system.
To ensure safe handling of wagon there will be wheel choke arrangement at inhaul &
outhaul side of Wagon Tippler pit. The main objective of wheel chock is arrest the
movement of loaded rake (at inhaul side) so as to prevent moving towards tippler pit
during wagon tippling operation. Arresting the movement of empty wagon rake towards
tippler pit from outhaul side is also done by wheel chock at outhaul end. Each wheel
chock unit has a pivoted arm which is moved into engagement with the wagon wheel by a
hydraulic cylinder. The hydraulic cylinder operates the arm using a link mechanism which
travels slightly over centre which prevents the restraining force from acting directly on
the cylinder.
Tippler Control
The Tippler is furnished with photocells and limit switches to determine the motions and
extents of travel of the Tippler during operation.
There are two photocell transmitter/receiver systems set diagonal across the platform to
indicate that Tippler Entry and Exit points are clear.
LARSEN & TOUBRO LIMITED
ECC Division – EDRC
The limit switches are heavy-duty type and are at ground level at the Entry end of the
Dumper. Striker levers are mounted on the End Frame. These limit switches are provided
as hardwired safety measures to backup the normal limits detected by the encoder
mounted on one Drive Unit.
Basic machine functions and all the interlocks are automated and controlled by an
engineered PLC system, which integrates multiple devices to fully automate the
coordination of the complex functions of Tippler, Indexer and Side arm charger.
The Side Arm Charger is a hydraulically powered reciprocating train hauling device
designed to marshal a loaded train up to a maximum of 58 wagons with a gross weight of
up to 140 tones. Additional functions include positioning wagons onto the Tippler and
pushing previously unloaded wagons onto the exit track ready for collection by the
locomotive at the end of the unloading operations. The Side Arm Charger travels on its
own rail track located to the side of the main train tracks and Tippler. The Side Arm
Charger track rails are set to 1500mm centres and have a rack/spine bar drive assembly
mounted between the rails. It is fitted with an extended arm, which carries at its outer end
an automatic coupler (on rear face). Thus, it couples onto the front of the wagon to draw a
LARSEN & TOUBRO LIMITED

Main Frame
The Side Arm Charger Main Frame is a heavy duty fabricated box section structure. The
design will cater for the loads and stresses induced from hauling the rake of fully loaded
rail wagons into the Tippler.
Machined interfaces are provided on the frame for mounting the main arm, support/guide
rollers and drive units.
The Main Frame will also include lifting lugs and these will be sized to allow lifting of the
assembled Side Arm Charger within a workshop and during site installation.
Luffing Arm
The pivoted Luffing Arm is a robust structural box member raised and lowered by two
hydraulic cylinders. The raise/lower operation is controlled in a manner that minimizes the
inertia effects of lowering a large mass. The Arm is lowered for all wagon hauling and
pushing operations and raised to clear the Tippler and waiting wagons during its reverse
travel operations.
Located at the head end of the arm is a standard rail wagon coupler which will be used to
connect the Side Arm Charger to the rail wagons. Release of the coupler mechanism is
achieved by a small hydraulic cylinder mounted on the Luffing Arm. A shock absorbing
mechanism is mounted within the Arm Head to reduce the shock loading effects
experienced in hauling the train of full wagons into the plant and also pushing the empty
wagons from the Tippler station.
Coupler proximity switches are also attached to the coupler end of the arm. These detect
that the Side Arm Charger couplers are engaged and locked.
Drive Assembly
The Side Arm Charger is driven by means a set of individual hydraulically powered drives.
Drive System comprises a hydraulic motor and machined pinion. The pinions are located
beneath the Main Frame and mesh with the land mounted drive rack.
The hydraulic power pack for the drives is located on the Main Frame. Travel motions and
associated train/wagon hauling loads are carefully calculated and controlled during
LARSEN & TOUBRO LIMITED
ECC Division – EDRC
The Support Rollers, which are vertical wheel assemblies are mounted on each corner of
the Side Arm Charger Main Frame. One of the total four units incorporates a spring
assembly which ensures that all four wheels make contact with the running rails. The four
Guide Rollers, which are horizontal wheel assemblies, are located on the underside of the
Side Arm Charger Main Frame and contact the ground mounted Track Spine Bar. These
Guide Rollers react the horizontal forces generated in the Luffing Arm when the train of rail
wagons is hauled forward by the Side Arm Charger. Both the Support Roller and Guide
Rollers incorporate anti-friction bearings and seals. These are superior railway cartridge
type bearings for reliability.
The Side Arm Charger Track, Drive Rack and Spine Bar are a proven design and are sized to
accommodate the driving forces and reaction forces generated when hauling a train of 59
fully loaded wagons, weighing up to maximum 140 tone.
All horizontal transverse loads are reacted by a central Spine Bar via the Guide Rollers, and
for the hauling forces by the continuous Drive Rack. The Spine Bars will have machined
surfaces for contact with the Side Arm Charger Guide Rollers and Racks and be mounted on
supports equally pitched along the total length of travel. Racks will be cast steel with a
machined mounting face for seating onto the Spine Bars.
Power and control circuits are connected to the Side Arm Charger by means of a Festoon
Cable System suspended on an overhead track adjacent to and running parallel with the
Side Arm Charger Rail Track. The cables are hung on festoon trolleys. Limit switches are
mounted on the Festoon Track to control the stopping position of the Side Arm Charger
and to provide a safety interlock during movement. A track side limit switch is also used to
monitor and control the movement of the rail cars.

3.1.2 At the main control room the operator selects the wagon type in the rake (see 1.9.1), switches the
Control System to Automatic and initiates the automatic cycle.
3.2.1 The SAC pulls the rake forward and when the lead wheel of the 2nd wagon passes the Slowdown switch
on the approach to the Wheel Chocks, the SAC decelerates to creep speed. The Slowdown switch is
programmed to ignore the passage of the first 3 wheels and only on detection of the 4th wheel (i.e. lead GA-5327 LS-WCE-CSD IS
wheel of the 2nd wagon) does it initiate SAC Slowdown. The operation of the same switch also LS-WCE-FE1-2 IS

3.2.4 Upon receipt of the signal confirming that the SUT is at rail level with the platform on the weigh scale,
the SAC automatically pulls the uncoupled full wagon forward onto the SUT platform (and weigh scale)
and positions it centrally on the SUT Platform. The stopping position depends on the length group of the EN-C-LWSD EN-ABS
wagon selected, ('Long' or 'Short'); see Section3.1.2. GA-5210 EN-C-LWS EN-ABS
EN-C-SWSD EN-ABS
The position of the wagon on the SUT is checked by the use of 3 sets of photocells. 2 sets EN-C-SWS EN-ABS
work together and check that a 'Long' group wagon has been placed centrally on the
Platform. This will check that a 'Long' wagon has not been placed incorrectly on the
Platform in the 'Short' wagon position (in this case the rear of the long wagon will obscure PEC-T-1 PEC
the rear beam) or a 'Long' wagon has been incorrectly placed too far forward on the
GA-5452 PEC-T-2 PEC
Platform caused by SAC over-run (in this case the front of the wagon obscures the front
PEC-T-3 PEC
beam). The third photocell set checks that a 'Short' wagon has been positioned as a 'Long'
wagon i.e. too far forward (in this case the front of the wagon will obscure the beam).
These 3 sets of photocells ensure that either 'Long' or 'Short' wagons cannot be placed on

Under normal operation, (i.e. the correct wagon type has been selected), when full contact between
Clamp Beams and the wagon is established (signalled by a predetermined pressure being registered HD PT-T-CBE1-6 Hyd. Splr.

Monitoring of the sensor pressure continues throughout the rest of the tip cycle until the SUT
reaches 90 degrees tip angle on the return cycle. During the tip period, if any of the pressure
transducers indicate a loss of cylinder pressure, i.e. that a Clamp is no longer locked, the rotation of
the SUT will perform a controlled stop and display a fault indication. The operator will then decide
whether to continue to unload the wagon or return it to rail level at slow speed under Manual
control. During the return period, if any of the pressure transducers indicate a loss of cylinder
pressure, rotation of the SUT will automatically continue back to rail level followed by a fault
indication and plant Auto Cycle interruption.
4.1.7 At approximately 150 degrees of SUT rotation, a signal is provided to initiate Slowdown. The SUT is

The tippler cycle is initiated by the charger forward position, subject to the wagon being central on the platform (checked by the photocells).
Side pad should extend and touches the wagon side stanchion which will be sensed by pressure switch for 4 side pad cylinder, It will also to be
sensed by “loss of side pad retraction” signal. Also gripper should engage the wheel of wagon this will be sensed by “Loss of gripper retracted
“signal. Pressure switch also confirms that gripper is engaged with the wheel. Both entry wheel chock and exit wheel chock should be in a
retracted condition to get the permissive of AUTO operation of tippler. All the above is required to start “Auto’ operation of tippler.
Manual
This facility allows the tippler to perform normal tip and return cycles and is used when material remains in the wagon, or if AUTO mode is not
available. It is initiated by the selector switch when MANUAL is selected.
Operator can do the manual operation from keyboard (which is mounted on the desk) for HMI or from following pushbuttons on Control desk
based on the HMI/Desk mode selector switch (SS2) selected by operator.
And also the process of the complete tippling cycle are recognized through the below mentioned Indication lamp in all modes of

INTRODUCTION
The information given in these schedules and by manufacturers of the proprietary equipment elsewhere in
this manual will assist your personnel to establish maintenance procedures that will keep the machines in
a safe and efficient working condition.
All reasonable care has been taken to list the various items requiring servicing when the machines are
being operated under normal working conditions.
We do recommend, however, that as conditions can vary considerably from site to site, the instructions
given in the schedules should be reviewed and if necessary amended by a qualified engineer, after the
equipment has been in operation for approximately one year.
Care should be taken to ensure all the inspection and maintenance work is carried out in a clean
environment. The equipment to be serviced together with nearby plant should be thoroughly cleaned prior
to commencement of work.
Lubrication schedule given under this section should be strictly followed for optimum performance of the
machine.

ELECTRICAL INSTRUCTIONS :
General
The conditions likely to affect the efficient operation of the control equipment are :
(a) The presence of dirt or moisture within the enclosure.
(b) Wear and tear of moving parts and contact surfaces of electro-mechanical
devices.
The maintenance program has been devised to prevent breakdown of any devices by the above conditions
These instructions, however, only generally cover components which are repairable. Any other unit
becoming unserviceable should be replaced in its entirety.
WARNING
BEFORE WORKING ON ANY PART OF THE MACHINES IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT ALL
EQUIPMENT INCLUDING ITS ASSOCIATED CONVEYOR BELOW IS MECHANICALLY AND
ELECTRICALLY ISOLATED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE HEALTH AND SAFETY
REGULATIONS.
HYDRAULIC INSTRUCTIONS :
In addition to the instructions given in Hydraulic Power Pack & Cylinder Manual (Vol. 2), please check the
following :
1. Oil Level
a) Oil level should not fall below the range of sight glass of oil reservoir. This should be checked
daily.
b) Float switch should be checked periodically for proper functioning.
2. Oil Temperature
Thermostat should be checked periodically for proper functioning by reducing the setting temperature
to atmospheric temperature.
3. Oil Filtration
a) Check the condition of the filters daily. If the clogging indicator is in rcd zone, it indicates that the
filter is clogged and needs replacement. A supply of filter cartridges in their original packaging
should be kept at the machine.
b) In case of frequent clogging of filter either centrifuge the oil or replace the oil. Addition of oil
must be thro' an oil filter. Laboratory test to find out contamination level is recommended.
c) Periodically open the drain valve gradually and drain off any water that might have separated from
oil.
d) When the fluid contamination level is not continuously monitored, change oil every 2000
operating hours or at least once a year or as indicated by laboratory tests. Clean the reservoir
before refilling.
LARSEN & TOUBRO LIMITED
ECC Division – EDRC
4. Air Breather
a) Never leave the air breather open.
b) As a general rule, carry out maintenance of breather at the same time as oil filter.
5. Oil Cooler
The cooler tubes should be cleaned annually.
6. Hydraulic Lines & Fittings
Visually check daily for wear, damage or any fluid leakage. Tighten, repair or replace as required. Also
check for collapsed suction compensators.
7. Interlock
Check at least once a month that the safety interlocks condition i.e., if the clamps do not engage by
80 deg. tippler rotation, tipping should stop.
NOTE
1. DO NOT RUN THE TIPPLER IN MAINTENANCE MODE WITH WAGON.
2. DO NOT TIP WITH THE CLAMPS IN FULLY RAISED CONDITION IN MAINTENANCE
MODE.
3. DO NOT RE-START THE TIPPLER WHICH IS TRIPPED BY OVER TRAVEL LIMIT SWITCH
WITHOUT INVESTIGATING THE CAUSE; SPECIALLY, CHECK THE CONDITION OF
ROTARY CAM LIMIT SWITCH.

1. COMPONENTS OF BELT CONVEYOR
A. STRINGER
The stringer consists of two channel of ISMC suitably reinforced by ISA for better
strength and rigidity. The whole stringer is divided to suitable individual lengths for
bolting to access easy installation.
B. GALLERIES
The gallery consists of a box type ISMC construction of suitably reinforced by ISA for
better strength and rigidity. The whole gallery is divided to suitable individual lengths
for bolting to access easy installation.
C. TAIL FRAME
The tail frame consists of ISMC reinforced by suitable angle on which take up bearings
are mounted to support the tail pulley. The take-up arrangement is provided to adjust
the necessary belt tension.
D. HEAD FRAME
The head frame consists of ISMC reinforced by suitable angle on which Plummer blocks;
pillow blocks are mounted to support the head pulley, snub pulley. The frame is
extended to accommodate the gearbox and the motor for driving the conveyor.
E. However the belt conveyor consists of carrying idlers, return idlers, pulleys, conveyor
belting, motor, gearbox and take-up. The components are described in detail to acquaint
the operating staff with their functions.
F. CARRYING IDLERS
Carrying idler configuration used is to support the troughed belts. The two outer rollers
are inclined upward, the center roll is horizontal. Idler rolls consist of ERW tube
enclosed at each end and fitted with stationary shaft, anti-friction bearings and seals.
G. RETURN IDLERS
Return idlers are usually are of horizontal rolls, positioned between brackets which
normally are attached to the underside of the support structure on which the carrying
idlers are mounted.
H. PULLEYS
The pulley used is the standard steel drum pulley, which consists of a continuous rim,
and two end discs fitted with compression hubs, made up of mild steel/EN-8. The pulley
is covered with rubber to increase the co-efficient of friction between the belt and the
pulley.

I. TAKE-UP
All belt-conveyors require the use of some form of take-up device for the following
reasons.
a. To ensure the proper amount of slack side tension at the drive pulley to prevent
belt slippage
.
b. To ensure proper belt tension at loading and other points along the conveyor.
d. To allow belt storage for making replacement splices (without which storage,
small sections of new belt would have to be added, requiring two splices for each
splice repair).
The type of take-up given is manual, which has the advantage of compactness and low
cost. It is located at the tail end of the conveyor mounted on two guides. Adjusting the
screw fitted with nuts can vary the tension of the belt. However a careful observation is
required while adjusting the manual take- up.
Automatic take-up (VGTU) are above provided in long conveyors near the return side at
discharge end. The take-up pulley location is controlled by the counter weight attached
to the sliding pulley on vertical guide channels which move accordingly to the tension
requirements.
J. BELTING
While a belt conveyor is composed of many important than the conveyor belt itself since
its accounts for substantial part of the initial cost in a belt conveyor a system.
2. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
The installation of the belt conveyor begins with the proper positioning and alignment
of the structural. It is necessary to ensure that the center line of the conveyor is maintained all
through.
The erection of mechanical components like idlers, pulleys, drive units etc. should be
taken up after the structural’s are permanently leveled and aligned. All idlers and pulleys
should be positioned at right angles to the conveyor central line. Install the belt in position
ensuring that the carrying side of the belt should be kept no tighter than the necessary to
prevent slipping on the drive pulley or pulleys under the most extreme loading conditions. This
belt tension must also be sufficient to eliminate any abnormal sagging between the toughing
idlers near the tail end and at all loading points. Excessive belt tension, due to extremely high
return belt tension, may causes unnecessary belt stress, premature slicing failure and extra
load on bearings and shafts. Brakes if provided shell be adjusted so that
Clearance is approx 1 to 1.5 mm between break drum and break shoe when released.

Automatic take-ups are desirable to provide a convenient method of compensating for
changes in the belt length due to variations in belt tensions which occur during starting,
braking or when the conveyor is partially loaded and operation in a manner that is considered
abnormal.
INSTALLATION:
a. The conveyor belt drum should be brought to site with care and mounted at a
Convenient location.
b. Belting to be pulled on to the conveyor, after suitably fastening the end.
c. Belt not to rub or catch on sharp corners of the conveyor when the belt is drawn over
the idlers.
d. When installing the belt make sure that the carrying side, which is generally the
branded side, is right side up.
JOINING:
a. Great care should be taken that the ends are cut square and the joint is not crooked.
b. Method of joining may be hot/cold vulcanization or by the use of metal fasteners.
INITIAL RUNNIG:
a. Trial runs of the empty belt should be made to ensure that the belt sits satisfactorily on
the idlers.
b. Belt should not touch any foreign material, belt should be free run.
c. The belt to run aligned at all points of the conveyor, both on the carrying and return
runs.
d. With minor idler adjustments, the belt may be made to run centrally throughout its
length.
e. Excessive adjustment in any one idler will result in increased back cover wear. Better to
make slight adjustments in several set of idlers
f. If the belt runs true when empty but off-centre with load, the obvious fault lies in the
method of loading.
g. It is preferable to carry out all adjustments on the conveyor before running the belt on a
production basis.
4. REPAIR OF BELT
(i) Repairing of damaged portion of the belt is given top priority to avoid undesired
propagation
(ii) Recommended rubber cover & solutions are to be used as per stated procedure of
belt supplier & trained personals only to be employed for repair.
(iii) Steel hinges may be used for medium tensioned conveyors or to buy time.
(iv) Repair to be circular or oval in shape
(v) Each coat of solution to be allowed to dry completely.
(vi) Curing to be done properly and as prescribed in manufacturer’s catalogues.

5. INSTRUCTION FOR PULLEYS
B) LAGGING
- Only natural rubber shall be used for lagging
- Lagged pulley shall stored by covering with wooden battens on surface tied with wire
- Lagged pulley not to be kept on floor
- Lubrication Schedule to be strictly followed
- Only 60% of empty space inside the bearing to be filled with grease of specified grade
(Grade-3)
6. SEQUENCE OF INSTALLATION OF CONVEYOR
2. Civil work to be carried out for stringer, short support, drive foundation, take up and tail
foundation.
8. Deviation in central line of conveyor – 2mm in one meter length but 15 mm max for total
length.
It is often noticed that the belt tends to run sideways when operating with a new belt. While
training a belt the first attempt should be made to bring the belt over the middle of the head
and tail pulleys. A slight adjustment of the return idlers or snub pulley will bring the belt on to
the middle of tail pulley. The tail pulley can also be slightly adjusted to achieve this result
whereas on no account should the drive pulley be shifted. To adjust the belt on the carrying
and return side the idlers may be slightly tilted to train the belt. In this regard it should be
noted that the belt tends to move towards the end of the idler which touches the belt first. In
other words if one end of the idler is moved forward in the direction of belt travel the belt
tends to move towards the other end of the idler.
Belt scrappers – scraper rubber should protrude uniformly throughout the width.
Skirt rubber – only a small clearance (1MM max) must exist between skirt rubber and belt.
1. Visual Inspection of the system especially the lower belt strand to remove for forgotten
tools and other alien articles – which may be carried along by belt and jammed between
belts and pulleys.
3. Counter weight (of TU) must have correct amount of slabs / weight.
5. Ensue belt should run empty for 5-6 mins before feeding the material for checking the
belt movement & tracking of the belt or any abnormalities. Ensure uniform loading as
far as practicable.
7. a. Belt alignment is possible only during running the belt to see the result of
Corrections undertaken.
1. Ensure that the transmission machinery like motor, gear box, couplings etc. have been
properly aligned.
2. Ensure that the direction of the motor is correct.
3. Before starting check and remove the lumps of material chips of wood and pieces of
scrap etc., wedged, between the chutes / skirt and belt or between pulley and belt.
4. Belt should start in empty at any point of time to avoid slippages & damages of
Pulleys/Idlers.
5. Check the tension of the belt and if any slippage is noticed adjust the tension with the
help of take-up.
6. Fill up the gear box / geared motor with flushing oil as specified in the lubrication chart,
run for approximately half an hour without load and refill with the recommended grade
of oil up to the correct level.
7. Run the belt continuously for 5-10 mins no load trails.
8. Carry out a thorough check of all fastens and free running of idlers. Check for excessive
heating of bearings, gear box and motor. Possible reasons are misalignment, improper
lubrication or loose bolts. Take preventions incase abnormality noticed.
9. Rectify / repair all the defects found during No-Load test.
10. Now the conveyor is ready for continuous operation on load.
11. Start loading the conveyor gradually to attain the maximum specified capacity.
12. Run the conveyor in this condition, continuously for hours.
13. During the above period, check for proper discharge clogging of chutes, central feeding
on succeeding conveyor.
14. Stop the conveyor after empty the belt and recheck for loosening of fasteners.
15. If everything is okay, the conveyor can be run continuously.
16. At the time of stopping the conveyors belt should be empty always.
17. Take readings of volts, amperes and watts for the empty belt. These readings and length
of conveyor should be recorded for future reference. These will be valuable at a later
date for checking against similar readings to determine whether the belt conveyor is
running normally or not.
The voltmeter and watt readings should be taken by the operator every day. If the readings
are much higher than the normal values for the same conveyor, then the maintenance man

should immediately check the belt line for jammed idlers, return belt dragging on the
bottom and other factors that would cause the increase load on the motor.
Proper belt conveyor maintenance means having a clean conveyor system at all times. The
belt line should be patrolled for every shift.
The operator on the conveyor system should be responsible for making quick belt
examinations each day so that any seriously damaged spot in the belt can be
immediately reported and the belt shut down for emergency repairs. The belt is the most
vulnerable and expensive part of a belt conveyor, so frequent and thorough inspection is
imperative.
The danger of fire caused by the belt conveyor system can be minimized by:
a. Using centrifugal switches, or similar devices, at the head end to remove power from
the motor when the belt speed falls below normal. Slippage or jamming of the belt
causes excessive friction resulting in fire.
b. Using centrifugal or speed responsive switch installed for sequence control of feeder
belts so that material will not pile up on a stopped belt.
d. Providing ample clearance to the conveyor frame and to objects along the belt line.
e. Seeing that electric cables, protective devices and electrical compartments are kept
clean and dry. All possible precautions should be taken to prevent shorts and grounds.
LUBRICATION:
The lubricating components of the conveyor are the outboard bearings, speed reducer and the
transmission chains .The lubrication procedure for each of these components is described as
under.

E-mail : info@bevconwayors.com Tele: 040 - 27201956, 27201959, Fax: 040 - 27208279 OPERATION & MAINTENANCE MANUALS
RE-LUBRICATION INTERVAL:
The re-lubrication interval for both the head and tail end bearings is about 100 operating
hours, provided the temperature of bearing at the outer race is within 70°C. For every 15°C
rise in temperature, this interval must be halved.
LUBRICATION PROCEDURE:
Wipe lubricating nipples. Clean before fresh grease is injected. If the bearing housing is not
provided with nipples, requisite re-lubrication should be carried out during a planned
stoppage of the machine. The housing cover has to be removed, the used grease taken out and
fresh grease added. Even where nipples are fitted on the housing, the used grease should be
removed and replaced with fresh from time to time. During application, fill the space between
the rollers with grease, which is suitable for operating conditions.
The free space around the bearing should normally be between a third and half filled with
grease.
OIL LUBRICATION:
Check the oil level and replenish if necessary. Ensure that the air-vent of the oil level gauge is
not blocked. When the oil is to be changed, it is drained off and the bearing arrangement rinsed
with fresh, clean oil of same type, before refilling to the same level. With oil bath lubrication, it
is generally sufficient to change the oil once a year, provided the operating temperature does
not exceed +50°C and the oil does not become contaminated. The oil must be changed more
frequently, when operating temperatures are higher.
LUBRICANT:
The lubricant recommended for various temperatures is given in the following table.
Ambient Temperature Recommended
Degree °C Lubricant
-5 to 5 SAE20
6 to 25 SAE30
26 to 45 SAE40
46 to 70 SAE50
12. BEARINGS
STORAGE OF BEARING
Bearings should preferably be kept in a store where the relative humidity does not exceed 60%
and where the temperature is reasonably constant.

ROUTINE CHECKUP OF BEARINGS DURING OPERATION
a) Listen to any loud noise often irregular and rumbling using a listening rod, screw driver
or similar object.
b) Check the temperature of the bearing arrangement by using a thermometer or often
simply by placing a hand on the bearing.
c) Ensure that lubricant does not escape through defective seals or insufficiently tightened
plugs.
d) Re-lubricate the bearing arrangements according to instructions enclosed.
The housing cap or end cover has to be removed, the used grease taken out and fresh grease
added.
This should preferably be done during a planned stoppage of the machine or when the machine
is to be dismantled for some reason, such as inspection or repair.
- Remove the covers & seals.
- Wash the exposed bearing where it is possible to carry out inspection without
dismounting.
- Use a paint brush dipped in white spirit & dry with a clean lint free cloth or
compressed air.
- If the bearing is undamaged it should be re-lubricated.
- Carefully replace the seals and covers.
Clean the dismounted bearing as above & then inspect it for any damage for any signs of
damage.
- Faulty Mounting
- Faulty Lubrication
- Foreign matter in bearing
- Water ingress
- Inaccurate Shaft or housing seating
- Vibration

- Place the sleeve on the shaft at the position marked before it was dismounted.
- Remove the rust – inhibiting compound from the bearing bore only.
- Place the bearing on the sleeve & screw on the lock nut and drive the bearing up the
sleeve by tightening the lock nut.
- Check the reduction in radial internal clearance by rotating the bearing.
- When the lock nut has been correctly tightened, it should still be possible to rotate
the outer ring easily.
- Remove the lock nut after the drive up has been completed & place the locking
washer in position.
- Screw the lock nut again and tighten it.
- Bend down a suitable tab of the locking washer so that it engages in one of the slots
in the lock nut.
- Measure it engages in one of the slots in the lock nut.
- Measure the residual clearance again to see that it is unchanged.

A brief listing is presented here simply to illustrate the type of safety considerations generally
applicable to belt conveyor installations and equipment.
1. At no time should the conveyor be used to handle material other than that originally
specified. Capacity and belt speed design ratings should not be exceeded / altered.
2. Any point of time conveyor should be start without any material on the top of the belt
and while stopping the conveyor belt should be empty.
3. Only trained personnel should be allowed to operate the conveyor system. They
should have complete knowledge of conveyor operation, electrical controls, safety and
warning devices, and the capacity and the performance limitations of the system.
8. Ensure in monthly checks for transmission equipment like motor, gearbox, and
couplings are within the limits of alignment.
9. Ensure that the direction of rotation of the motor is correct before putting the belts on.
10. Before starting, check and remove the lumps of material, chips of wood, and pieces of
scrap etc wedged between the chutes/skirt and the belt or between the pulley and the
belt.
11. Check the tension of the belt and if any slippage is noticed adjust tension with the help
of the take-up (for a screw take-up arrangements).
12. Fill up the gearbox/geared motor with flushing oil as specified in the lubrication chart,
run for approximately half an hour without load and re fill with the recommended
grade of oil up to the correct level after draining the flushing oil.
13. Run the belt continuously for no load trials observing for proper functioning of
running of the belt, bearing seating etc. This can be observed from the amps drawn by
the motor and visual inspection.
14. Carryout a thorough check of fasteners and free running of idlers. Check for excessive
heating of bearings, gearbox and motor. Possible reasons are misalignment, improper
lubrication or loose belts. Take prevention in case of abnormality noticed.
15. Ensure loading of the conveyor gradually to attain the maximum specified capacity.
16. To stop the Belt in the event of any Hazard / injury to the personnel, pull the wire /
chord in any direction so that the pull chord switch gets operated to stop the
conveyor.
17. Belt sway switches provided on both sides of the Belt at staggered intervals or
opposite to each other for longer conveyors will ensure the belt doesn’t sway / get out
of track beyond a point.
18. The zero speed switches operate with the help of sensor (the sensor counts the pulse /
speed of non drive pulley / tail pulley in most of the cases) with a set point to ensure
stoppage of motor in case of belt snap / cut or under speed.
19. Periodic checking of operation of the above three safety devices should be made for
man & machine safety.

14. TROUBLE SHOOTING
RELATED TO BELT
With the belts in operation on full load it is to be expected that various types of problems crop
up. It is hence important for the Engineer at site to be able to take all possible measures to
prevent most of such troubles before they show up and in cases where they do occur, to be able
to identify and get to the root of what is causing the trouble.

1. INTRODUCTION
The material handling plant of a Thermal Power Station usually includes crushing and
screening units. The crushing unit either primary or secondary type is by a vibrating screening unit.
Rotary Breaker is a unique machine combining breaking and screening units. It comprises of a
huge perforated cylindrical screening shell fitted with tyres and mounted on supporting guide rollers.
Deflector plates are fixed circumferentially inside the shell at feed end. Adjustable lifting shelves are
fixed radically all along the shell. The Shell is enclosed in a casing to avoid dust pollution. At the
discharge end of the shell a refuse plough aids in the discharge of un-crushable material.
Rotary Breaker is chain driven and operates at low frequencies. The machine is charged with
ROM Coal from mines, at the feed end of the shell. Minus size lumps i.e. below the stipulated Screen
opening make their way through the screening shell. Larger lumps , scooped up by the adjustable
lifting shelves , fall in the screening shell due to gravity. The deflector plates at the feeder end force
the feed to flow along the shell. Adjustable lifting shelves control the flow velocity and the number of
impacts of the feed. Hard material like bony sulphur , ore ., slate , rock etc. if present in the feed are
scavenged and discharged through refuse chute.
The supports of Rotary breaker are usually built integral with the building. The principal
beams which carry the shell supports are constructed out of reinforce concrete members. These are so
designed as to ensure the rigidity of the machine during operation. An allowance of 2.5 to 3.0 over the
dead weight figures shown in the certified General Arrangement and foundation Drgs. is
recommended in the design of supports to account for line loads. Before erecting the machine check
that The supporting structure foundations are laid in accordance with the foundation drawing.
The bed plates are to be so laid that, they are parallel to one another. The center distance
shown in the G.A.Drg.must be strictly adhered to ensure minimum end clearance or float as shown in
the erection diagram no.1. The center distance between the rollers must be measured in two
directions i.e. parallel and perpendicular to the axis of the shell. The diagonal distance of the rollers
must be measured and they must be equal to ensure correct location, as shown in fig.1.
The both spiders ( end cones ) are mounted vertically held in position by supports and props at
a slightly gather distance than indicated in the G.A.Drg the special beams are then rigidly bolted in
sequence as shown in fig.2 , using fitting bolts and nuts. The end cones are then fitted to the " T "
beam unit with end cones is mounted on supports. The rotation of the supporting assembly is
prevented by use of suitable fixture. The shell screens plates are then bolted bolted to the Skelton
accommodate deflector plates and lifting shelves. Lifting shelves and deflector plates are to be initially
assembled in their mean position as shown in erection diagram no. 1 & 5 the final position of these
are established only after testing under working conditions to suit the feeder rate of material through
effuse chute, after all parts are properly assembled. In this final position the lifting and deflectors must
be securely tightened . Refuse plough is fixed at the discharge end of the machine.
The drive unit of the machine comprising of an electric motor , fluid coupling , gear box
chain with sprockets at drive and non-drive ends are to be assembled the same order on a suitable
base. The roller chain is to be so assembled that the chain tension prevents the movement in return

side. Feed and refuse chutes are to be assembled with suitable reinforcements to be enclosed in
chain guard and casing respectively to ensure safety of personnel and to control dust. Before
attempting to start the machine, roller chains, gear box , bearing ,sprockets etc. ,should be properly
lubricated. The machine should run successfully for a minimum of eight hours on no load before it
is fixed permanently to the foundation. The alignment of support roller must be thoroughly
checked during the trial run.
The axes of the drum and the support rollers must be perfectly horizontal, so that the roller
parts do not rub against one another resulting in the wear of the same. For these the axes of rollers
must be parallel not only with one another but also with that of shell screen ( fig-1 ).The machine
should not float towards either end. But during operation the shell slightly floats towards the feed
end when running under light or no load and towards discharge end when running on full load. To
adjust the miss-aligned supports roller and for maintenance purpose sometimes the machine needs
to be floated towards either end. This has to be achieved by equally shifting the roller in pairs, thus
maintaining the parallelism of the axes of support roller with that of the shell Ref .Fig.3. Rollers of
only one end must not be disturbed as this will result in tilting the axis of the shell disturbing the
balance of the machine. Refer Fig.4.The alignment of support rollers must be checked as indicated
in Fig.1 after setting the support roller assembly.
The feed and refuse chute must be free from dust deposits to ensure smooth flow in to and
out of the machine. It is advised to enclose the end cones to protect them from dust. The axial
movement of the shell is prevented by the Guide Roller assemblies on either end of the machines.
The Guide Rollers are always in contact with the faces of the tier ring as shown in Fig.5 .The
instructions to install the guide roller assemblies are as under. Locate the maximum run out point
of the tyre ring on the face which shall have to be facing the guide roller. Keep a gap about 1 MM
between the roller face and max. run out of the tyre ring and locate the guide roller assembly. The
roller and pin location is to be such that the right angles to the centre line of the machine. So that
the adjustment is possible either to increase or decrease the gap between the roller and tyrering
faces at a later date due to wear etc. At this position of the guide roller, weld the roller stand on the
base frame of the rotary breaker.

OPERATING INSTRUCTION
The feeder to a Rotary Breaker should be as even as it is possible and if the feed chute is steep
so as to cause rushes of the feed material down the length of Rotary Breaker. Some from of
restriction must be used to avoid it. The life of screen plates can be enhanced by ensuring a bed of
material in the shekel, except when the machine is idling. Should there be excessive breakage of
feed material then the angle of the lifting shelves must be increase in order to speed the passage of
the feed through the breaker.
If however , considerable quantity of breakable material is being discharged with rejects, then
the shelves may be set , at a lesser angle ( almost horizontal in extreme cases).Various
arrangements of the material drum details can be used , but it is important to see that
configuration is kept in balance at all times.
The discharge and Refuse chutes should be watched for building up of dust. Clearing of dust
collected in the vicinity of supporting and guide rollers must be carried out at the end of except
each shaft. The dust problem can be minimized by enclosing the end cones as much as possible and
ROTARY BREAKER
by employing suitable dust collection system. The tightness of the bolts holding the screen plates
and other internal parts should be checked At the least one in a week or as found necessary.
Periodic tightening will have to be carried out to Account for loosening of the bolts due to the
continuous shocks of material which fall on the shell plates.
The roller mounted machine should be periodically checked for misalignment wear while dust
the machine is in operation ensures that there are no excessive vibrations. The support rollers and
guide rollers must run free. Refer to the instruction under “CAUTION "before starting the machine.

TYPE OF DEFECTS :-
o EXCESSIVE VIBRATION
o FACE OUT
o UNEVEN WEAR
REMIDIES :-
o IMPROPER BALANCING
o UNEVEN WEAR
Let rotor to be run for some time (without load ) and put off the switch so that rotor will come to
half. Make a chalk mark on the lowest position of the tyre ring. Again put of the machine and bring
it to half observe the position of the chalk mark previously made .If that mark is not at the lowest
position but in different position, again make a new chalk mark at the new lowest position of the
riding ring.
Respect to this several times , if each times the position of the mark changes then it is an
indication that the balancing is correct. If on the contrary it is found that the mark first made always
ROTARY BREAKER
comes to the lowest position then it is an indication of improper balancing and suitable weights
should be added to the side of shell opposite to the mark. By repeating this procedure for a no. of
times the rotor should be balanced , so that it comes to rest at any position along the
circumference of the tyre ring and not a specific point.
If after balancing the rotor vibrations still persist then check the tyre ring and roller for any uneven
wear. If there is any ovality either in the tyre ring or in the rollers these may also cause vibrations.
These defects have to be removed by machining the part .In doing so special care must be taken to
ensure that all the rollers and tyre ring among themselves are finished to their respective common
diameters.
If after eliminating then above two defects vibrations still persists then they may be done to a poor
foundation this defects has to be tackled by the Civil Engineering Dept.
C. THE FACE RUN OUT OF ROTOR MAY BE DUE TO THESE REASONS
In this case the faces of rollers may be parallel ( sketch – A ) and true but the distance must be x
only. It should not vary like X1, X2, X3 & X4.This variation would cause a skew to the rotor and
would tends to float on either direction causing shear and rubbing against the roller flanges .To
correct this defects the bearing closures fitted on shaft ends are to be removed and measuring aids
are to be introduced in the shaft centre and the distance X is to be set correctly from rotor line
maintaining the parallelism of the roller flanges.
If the roller flanges are out as shown in Sketch- B this also would tends to knock the rotor causing
end float to rotor. This defect can be corrected by the help of plane wire tied perpendicular to rotor
axis. The installation procedure can be referred in the connection.The face run out due to
machining fault or assembly fault is an in born defect. If it is a small Amount within 2 to 3 mm. This
may be left as it is. If it is excessive this may corrected by remachining or reassembly as the case
may be.
Rubbing of tyre ring against faces of rollers. This occurs due to two reasons.
For this there should be equal distance between the rollers centre line at the feed end as well
as discharge end.
D. Uneven wear:
Uneven wear on Rollers and Tyre ring may take place on account of 3 Reasons.
D.1. Improper relative motion of rollers and tyre ring due to bearing jam.
D.3. Improper support of tyre ring on rollers or improper bearing of rollers against tyre ring.
The rollers mounted on defective bearing will have staggered relative motion and have an
irregular wear.
If the hardness of the four rollers are not maintained equally the wear rate will differ.
Scoring may be due to face run out of either of the tyre rings or the rollers or both
together. This run out causes the rotor to travel axially to and fro. This rotation of the heavy mass
combined with this to and from action results in screw motion between the rollers and the tyre
ROTARY BREAKER
rings causing damage to both of them. Another cause may be the improper relative motions of
rotor & rollers due to bearing jam.
The score marks should be carefully examined. If the score is due to axial run out the mark may
be slightly inclined. If there is a bearing jam a small amount of flatness may be corrected by feeling
the bearing or by replacing the bearings. The react due to skew of the rotor and its correction was
deal under the heading face run out .The burring and budge out of material on the side of tyre ring
as well as on roller may occur due to uneven hardness of the material. Softer the material higher
the rate of burring. So higher the hardness of the material to be used.

CAUTIONS
Do not run the Rotary Breaker without proper lubrication.
Do not start Rotary Breaker with load, machine should be clear or rushing material before
starting feeding.
Check periodically loosening of the Plummer block holding down bolts and alignment of the
coupling. Loose bolts and misaligned Coupling may result in excessive vibration.
Check the bearing clearance before commissioning the Rotary Breaker. Excessive bearing
clearance may cause excessive vibration.
Feed to the Rotary Breaker should be uniform to avoid uneven wear. Excessive vibration may
developed during operation if the bearing of the components are not uniform.
If the feed material contains more moisture than specified it will result in reduction of capacity
and increase of power consumption.
DO not modify or disconnect any Mechanical /Electrical System without consulting" ELECON”
Check oil level in chain casing , Fluid coupling and Gear box.
Check the direction of adjustable lifting shelves with the direction of rotation of Cylinder. Refer
