Product Description

DESCRIPTION

The Dryer has a cylindrical jacketed vessel with a central shaft and innovative agitator paddle/blades. The RVPD agitator blades are designed that they sweep the entire internal surface and simultaneously turn the material so that all the product media comes into contact with the heated inner surface.

The RVPD shaft is supported on both ends of the dryer by high performance bearings and driven by means of a electric motor and gearbox. Cooling/heating is provided through the jacket so that the sealed heat transfer media can not come into contact with the process media. Cooling heat transfer fluids include brine or cold water where as heating heat transfer fluids include steam, hot water or heat transfer oil. We make a range of complementary Thermal Control units if there is no plant heat source available and a limpet coil is provided instead of jacket if the heating media is fluid.

ACCESORUIES OR OPTIONAL PROVISION.

• Raised skid mounting: ideal for scaled pilot plant and lab applications for optimum operator/process flow ergonomics
• Limpet coil: This can be used instead of heating jacket if the heating media is fluid.
• Full instrumentation pack for control room operation/DCS systems
• Internal breaker bars: These run the entire length of the dryer shell and are required if lump formation is expected during drying.
• A complementary skid mounted Thermal Control Unit (TCU) can be supplied to control the Dryers heating system (see example of an S2 TCU to the right)
• Nitrogen blanketing for sealing at charging and discharging points for drying of highly explosive materials.
• Receiver
• Condenser
• Vacuum System
• Thermal Control Unit (TCU) to manage and supply the thermal heating and cooling fluid for the heating jacket, where plant services is not available. Our TCU's are supplied by our Group company. Click here for information about Sunrax Process Technologies.
