Short And Long Frame Versions With Diverter Reject - Loma IQ2 User Manual

Short and long frame versions with diverter
reject
These systems have a choice of mounting methods: surface standing on height adjustable
feet or suspended from an overhead framework. General footprint drawings follow.
The installation space required is dependent upon the detector aperture size. The space
required can be determined from the measurement between the top of the infeed product
pipe to the surface upon which it is to stand.
An allowance of 10mm should be added to allow space between the end of the feed
pipework and the start of the detector product pipe. The surface upon which the system
stands must be capable of adequately supporting its weight, and any additional pipework,
which may be fitted to the reject device. The weight of the system is on its serial number
plate, located on the system framework.
The system requires adequate clearance around its circumference to allow easy, access for
operation and cleaning. A minimum clearance of 1 metre (39.4") is suggested.
Coupling of the product feed pipework to the system pipework is via a plastic flexible gaiter
secured to the pipe with reusable ties; direct contact between the pipes must be avoided.
Output pipework is connected directly to the rectangular flanges at both the good and reject
ports on the bottom of the reject device.
Short frame systems (all aperture sizes and mounting options)
For optimum performance, the distance between the top surface of the search head and the
point at which the product begins to freefall should not exceed 500mm (19.7").
Long frame systems (all mounting options but varies according
to aperture size)
For optimum performance, the distance between the top surface of the search head and the
point at which the product begins to freefall should be as shown in the table below:
