ElevatorsElevators are used for vertical transporting the products in the flour mills. Buckets, which
are fixed regularly on the belt, ladle the products, which are transferred from the bottom
head inlet to inside by the means of reductor. It transfers products to cross outlet with
centrifugal force by passing the top head pulley. It is transferred to required place by the
means of pipe which is mounted at this. Products dust is transferred out of system by
the means of pipe and valves are mounted on the head. Two of discharge bolts are taken
their places for discharging the materials, that are choked up with products because of
probable lameness, elevator occurs bottom top head with reductor, pipe,belt, pulley and
buckets. Excepting the bucket fixing belt, all other parts of the machine are made of steel
construction. Bottom head has stretching mechanism for bottom top head belt – pulley
adjustment. The elevator pipes are made of 1,5mm or 2mm metal sheet as unique parts
and pressed. One of the pipes are designed could be seperated in order to change the
buckets. The reducer motors are choosen according to the capacity and height of elevator.
Reductor table on the top head is active, so there is nothing any problem about centering.
Tube Screws:Tube Screw are placed the bottom of Rotoflow, it is generally used for transporting the flour
and bran. It is mounted under the rotoflow which is set up outlet of the flour and bran silos.
It could be manufactured in different specifications.

Choosing the right hazard monitoring system for your bucket elevator
When 4B introduced their Watchdog Elite bucket elevator
monitoring system in the early 1980’s, they were the first
on the market to offer a system that could monitor a complete
bucket elevator or conveyor system. No more need to monitor
different hazards separately. -Taking the hassle out of hazard
monitoring, the Watchdog Elite has quickly established itself as
the industry reference in hazard monitoring.
Today, there are a number of systems on the market, and
customers may find it more difficult to establish which system
is best for them. When you add up all the additional costs of
adding sensors and servicing the system, then this decision
becomes even more complicated. And when you consider the
cost of the potential downtime and even damage, then it is
absolutely crucial to get this decision right!
So what should customers look out for when selecting a system
to monitor their bucket elevators and conveyors?
Firstly, scalability:
Make sure that the system is able to grow with your operations.
You might just want to monitor one elevator, for a start, but
what happens if you want to monitor an additional elevator, or if
you want to add more sensors to the monitoring system?
Secondly, sensor options and interfaces:
What hazards is the system able to monitor? Belt and pulley
misalignment? Underspeed & Overspeed? Belt slippage?
Blocked chute condition? Bearing temperature? – And what
is the choice of compatible sensors? Do you have to use the
supplier’s range of sensors, and are they up for the job?
Does it have a communication interface, to be connected
to a PLC or PC?
Thirdly, user friendliness and support:
How easy is the system to use for the people who have to
operate it? Is there an in-built test and diagnostic function?
And how are potential hazards displayed and identified? Is
there a well-documented instruction manual available? Does
the supplier offer a commissioning service? And what level of
support can you expect, if there is a problem?
Fourthly, compliance:
Does the system have the necessary hazardous area approvals
for the region where it is to be used: ATEX for Europe, CSA for
North America & Canada and IECEx for the rest of the world?
At 4B, 25 years of experience have shown that there is no
“one size fits all” hazard monitoring system. The company’s
approach to product development is very much bottom-up
through discussions with the end-user upwards, rather than
sales-driven. -And it is this industry driven approach to product
development that has led the engineering team to develop 2
distinctive multi-function hazard monitoring systems, each
of them well researched and tested and using the same high
quality components, but different in the variety of sensor
options and the scope of the applications they can cover.

The T500 Elite Hotbus System
This is 4B’s top of the range system, able to monitor entire plants where the
bucket elevators and conveyors being monitored are spread out across large
distances.
A multi-function hazard monitor, it can monitor belt speed/alignment, bearing
temperature, pulley alignment and plug condition. It has been designed as a
serial communication system, to monitor up to 256 sensors, with a scan time
of only 4 seconds! With automatic machine shutdown capability and PLC /
PC compatibility, this advanced microprocessor based system offers low cost
installation, versatility and easy system expansion.
Logging and trending software is also available for historic data analysis and
preventative and predictive machine maintenance.
It is ATEX, CSA and IECEx certified.
The Watchdog Elite System
A well proven multi-functional hazard monitor for bucket elevators and conveyors,
the Watchdog Elite has recently been relaunched with continuous bearing
temperature monitoring.
The Watchdog Elite allows complete monitoring of multiple hazards in a bucket
elevator or conveyor, including belt and pulley alignment (top and bottom), bearing
temperature, belt speed and blocked chute conditions.
The Watchdog Elite system uses a range of compatible sensors to monitor
different hazards, such as the belt misalignment sensors “Touchswitch”, BAP2”
and WDA3”, the WDB bearing temperature sensors and the “Binswitch” capacitive
sensor.
An LCD screen displays elevator status messages (available in four different
languages) and a super-bright LED screen displays belt speed. RS485
communication is also available for connection to plant computers / PLCs.
Calibration and parameter adjustment are all menu-driven and kept simple.
The system is ATEX, CSA and IECEx certified.
