Rexnord® Bucket Elevators — more than 4,000 Supplied Worldwide:
Handling High Lifts, Large Capacities, Tough Applications.
Rexnord® High Performance Bucket Elevators are designed
specifi cally for critical applications handling tough materials
such as found in cement, lime, fertilizer, chemical, steel, coal,
aluminum and forest products industries.
Rexnord Bucket Elevators are Available in
Both Chain and Belt Types
Inherent characteristics of the material being elevated
and the elevator lift requirements determine which type of
bucket elevator, chain or belt, to use in a given application.
Temperature and standardization are also key factors considered.
Rexnord chain elevators offer benefi ts associated with the
consistency and quality of Rexnord chain which gives the
user a very predictable and measurable life. Rexnord has
supplied chain elevators with lifts in excess of 70 meters
(230 feet) and belt elevators
with lifts in excess of 100
meters (328 feet). Capacities
over
1,000 metric tons per
hour are possible with Rex
Bucket Elevators.
Rexnord® Chain Elevators are known for
dependable and efficient operation
Rexnord chain type bucket elevators are selected most
often for bucket elevator applications. Why? Because
in a properly designed and operated Rexnord bucket
elevator equipped with Rexnord elevator chains, the user
can achieve a very predictable and measurable wear life
for the elevator chain without concern over catastrophic
breakage. A simple chain elongation measurement
procedure showing chain wear limits is contained in the
Rexnord Service Manual supplied with each elevator. By
routinely measuring the chain elongation as part of the
plant’s preventive maintenance program, the user can
easily determine when it’s time to replace the chain after
the chain has reached the end of its useful life without
concern over failure. Designed to:
| 1. |
Operate reliably in tough, hostile environments 24 hours
per day, 365 days per year. |
| 2. |
Combine the right
chain speed, bucket
design and spacing
to centrifugally
discharge elevated
materials cleanly at
chain speeds from
1.3 to 2.0 meters per
second (260 to 395
fpm). |
| 3. |
Handle free flowing
materials from fines
on up to 50 mm (2
inch) lumps. |

Rexnord® Belt Elevators Incorporate
the Latest Technology
Research and development, fi eld testing and installation
experience have allowed Rexnord to produce a belt bucket
elevator that incorporates concepts and components that
refl ect state-of-the-art technology. Rexnord belt elevators are
currently handling such products as alumina, coke, foundry
sand, raw meal, wood chips and other materials where
physical characteristics are best suited to a belt type elevator.
Rexnord belt elevators have been supplied with lifts in excess
of 100 meters (328 feet).
| 1. |
Higher conveying capacities at speeds up to 115 meters
per minute (377 feet per minute). |
| 2. |
Higher lifts are possible in comparison to chain elevators. |
| 3. |
Superior bucket fastening method uses large diameter
flat head type fasteners to hold buckets to the belt. |
| 4. |
Belt material options mean that various types of belts
including polyester/nylon reinforced, special steel reinforced,
and others may be selected depending upon the application.
Rely on Rexnord’s experience with thousands of elevator
installations to apply the right belt for the application. |
| 5. |
Rexnord patented belt splice is easier and faster to
install than competitive designs - typically in 4 to 6 hours. |
| 6. |
Unique metal lagging on head pulley provides positive
traction surface for the belt. Hard metal lagging provides years
longer wear life than conventional rubber lagging and helps
provide continuous tracking of the belt. |
