Silo pump maintenance strategies and performance benefits

For the high wear and heavy load conditions of the silo pump in the pellet conveying, the following maintenance needs to be performed regularly:

Pressure vessel inspection: check the tank weld and pressure gauge every month to ensure that there is no risk of leakage or overpressure;

Rotary feed valve maintenance: clean up the internal material of the valve body every quarter, check the wear of the sealing ring, and replace the tungsten carbide wear-resistant bushing if necessary;

Air treatment: to ensure that the compressed air is dry and clean, it is recommended to install a refrigeration dryer and filter to avoid moisture or impurities from entering the pipeline;

Pipeline cleaning: Reverse purge is carried out every six months to remove the material residue adhered to the inner wall of the pipeline.

The core competencies of the equipment are high efficiency, energy efficiency and stability:

Low energy consumption design: Optimize the pipeline layout by using fluid mechanics, reduce the number of elbows and valves, and reduce the loss of wind resistance;

Precise feeding: the speed of the rotary feeding valve can be adjusted to 0.1-50 rpm, and the feeding accuracy error is ≤±1%;
Corrosion resistance: The pressure vessel conforms to ASME standards, and can be made of 304/316L stainless steel, which is suitable for the transportation of acid and alkali materials;

Remote monitoring: Support PLC and SCADA system docking to realize real-time monitoring and fault warning of conveying pressure, flow and temperature.

Through the above technical advantages, silo pumps can help enterprises reduce labor costs by more than 30% and material waste by 15%-20%, which is the key equipment for modern factories to achieve intelligent and green production.
