Thumb

Pneumatic Conveying System ( PCS) provided by PSPL are designed to handle a wide range of particle sizes and bulk densities, from fine powders to pellets, with bulk densities ranging from 16 to 3200 kg/m³. These systems are highly versatile, capable of handling particles up to 50 mm in diameter. PCS are ideal for efficient material transport in various industrial applications, including ash handling and bulk material unloading.

Types of Pneumatic Conveying Systems

Dilute phase conveying is the most commonly used system of conveying materials. This type of system requires relatively large quantity of air to convey a comparatively small amount of material at lower pressures. The material is conveyed at high velocities through the system. It is commonly referred to as suspension flow because the particles are held in suspension in the air as they are pushed (Pressure) or sucked (Vacuum) through the conveying conduit. To maintain the material in suspension, it is necessary to maintain velocity little more than pick-up velocity.

    Characteristics:
  • High Velocities - 15 m/s to 30 m/s
  • Operating pressure – 50mbar to 450 mbar
  • Capacity – upto 55 TPH (In vacuum 12 TPH)
  • Conveying Distance – 200 mtrs
  • Dust elimination due to closed system
  • Suitable for congested plant layout
  • Robust & User friendly
  • Easy accommodation of Large conveying distance as compared to conventional transfer systems
  • Less Space & thereby reduction in civil work
  • Multiple Collection and multiple discharge at longer distance can be easily handled

PSPL designed Dense Phase Conveying System offers the enormous advantage of efficiently "pushing" a much denser concentration of bulk solids at relatively low velocities through a conveying line. The dense phase systems uses low air volume, medium pressure. This system uses a transfer vessel to feed the material into the conveying line. The velocity at the source can be as low as 2 m/s for the majority of materials. The product velocity at the destination is always a function of the system differential pressure, but in most cases, it rarely exceeds 15 m/s.

  • Characteristics:
  • Low Velocities - 5 m/s to 15 m/s
  • Operating pressure – 1 bar to 3 bar
  • Capacity – upto 50 TPH
  • Conveying Distance – 200 mtrs
  • Dust elimination due to closed system
  • More suitable for high transfer rate in congested plant layout
  • Robust
  • Less Space & thereby reduction in civil work
  • Multiple Collection and multiple discharge at longer distance can be easily handled


Ash Handling System

Thumb

Pneumatic conveying systems, is ideal solution to handle Ash especially in industries such as power generation and manufacturing to handle boiler Ash.

Ash can be handled efficiently and effectively through DPCS. Main Components of DPCS are:

Components
  • Pressure vessel with Accessories viz: Isolation valve, pressure sealing valve, Pressure sensor
  • Conveying Conduit: Pipe of suitable size and MOC
  • Long radius Bends: Generally Bend ranges from 3D to 20D
  • Diverter valves: for delivering the material to different destinations
  • Air-Solid separation unit


Bulker Unloading System

Thumb

Bulker Unloading being the most economical system in industry which uses DPCS for light density (upto 1.6 T/cu.m) for transferring material from Bulker to Storage silo`s. It requires compressed air upto 2 bar and Air solid separation unit at destination Silo.

Components
  • Air Compressor with complete accessories viz: Motor, Compressor screw type, OPLC based control system, Air filter, enclosure
  • Compressed air receiver tank with accessories: with Manual Drain Valve, Safety Relief Valve, Pressure Gauge
  • Conveying Conduit of suitable Size and MOC
  • Target Box of minimize the velocity
  • Air Solid Separationfor venting out only Air
