Conveyor Solution
Conveyor systems are widely used because they are effective at transporting products between different areas. Conveyor system hazards include not only the transported material and structure, but also the conveyor itself. Due to external events and equipment failure, conveyor systems in general pose a fire risk. However, the flammable nature of the products, including the ability of some types to self-ignite, introduces a unique hazard that necessitates special consideration. An automatic fire protection system should be installed.
Conveyor Systems must consider two important factors:
- Fire prevention
- Automatic fire detection and suppression
A fire condition within a conveyor system can be defined as:
- A "static" fire is one that occurs on a stationary conveyor belt or within the conveyor mechanism/housing.
- A "moving" hazard is when hot or burning product is imported onto a moving conveyor belt.
