The Martin DT2 Inline Cleaner is used in conjunction with a head pulley
primary cleaner such as a Martin
®
The Martin DT2 Inline Cleaner contacts the belt as it leaves the head pulley
or another accessible position on the return belt with proper support. The
®
blades of the Martin DT2 Inline Cleaner, when tensioned, lay in the
direction of belt travel giving a negative angle and presenting no snag or
danger to the belt or splices.
The cleaner can be supplied or retrofitted with a variety of cleaning blades.
These include:
• Tungsten Carbide Blades—For very abrasive materials.
• Reversing Blades—All above options in reversing form for belts that drive
in both directions.
Note: When mounted slightly away from the head pulley or pressure roller,
®
the standard Martin DT2 Inline Cleaner Blade will handle small amounts of
belt reversal or rollback with no adverse effects. When fitted with Reversing
®
Blades, the Martin DT2 Inline Cleaner becomes a fully-operational
reversing belt cleaner.
If the material-handling process or product could be affected by
contamination from the use of these belt cleaners, the user is responsible for
taking the necessary steps to prevent contamination. Consult Martin
Engineering or a representative for alternate belt cleaners or belt cleaner
locations to use where contamination may be an issue.

The Martin DT2 Inline Cleaner is protected by U.S. patent number
6,581,754 and international patents pending and issued.
These procedures were written for equipment that is being installed on
enclosed pulley chutework. If the pulley is not enclosed, the equipment should
be installed using the best available field resources and methods to ensure that
the critical dimensions are followed for proper installation.
®
The Martin Reversing Hanger Mount Weldment, P/N 33282, can be used for

installations without chutework.

If the belt cleaner is installed on enclosed pulley chutework, a Martin
Inspection Door should be installed. Martin
