The piping installation and commissioning of the hydraulic system for chain plate conveyors are generally carried out within the machinery manufacturer’s facility. Large-scale fixed conveyor equipment is shipped after having its various components pre-assembled and undergoes partial debugging; the final debugging is carried out at the customer’s site. The steps for on-site debugging are as follows: 1. Unpack the chain conveyor, check to ensure that the contents of the bags match those listed in the packing list, and verify that all components, accessories, tools, and documents are present. Also, inspect for any damage or contamination that may have occurred during transportation. 2. The chain conveyor is used to position the unit and its various components, and to carry out the necessary alignment and fixation. 3. The chain conveyor connects to the hydraulic actuators in the machine, used for flushing longer pipes and hoses. 4. For the chain plate conveyor, check the power supply voltage, and then connect the power circuit and the control circuit. Connect the cooling water source as required, and check that the rotation direction of the pump is correct. 5. Fill the oil tank of the chain plate conveyor with the specified oil. Fill up, but do not exceed the maximum level mark ; Special attention should be paid to cleanliness during refueling. 6. Use the jog drive motor of the chain conveyor to check its rotation direction. 7. Bleed the hydraulic system at the highest possible point of the chain conveyor. Loosen the vent plug or pipe fitting: Operate the directional control valve to extend and retract the actuator several times. Gradually increase the load and raise the set value of the pressure valve. When there is no more foam in the tank, the actuator stops crawling, and the system is free of abnormal noises, it indicates that proper venting has been achieved; tighten the vent valve, etc. 8. When the chain conveyor’s pipeline is filled with oil and all actuators are extended, top up the oil to the lowest level mark in the tank. 9. The chain conveyor fills the pump housing with oil as required. Open the suction pipe stop valve. 10. The chain conveyor first uses the pressure control valve ; The flow control valve and the pressure regulator of the variable pump are adjusted to low settings. The direction control valve is in the neutral position ; 11. The accumulator of the chain conveyor should be inflated to the specified pressure; calculated in terms of absolute pressure, the inflation pressure of the accumulator used to absorb hydraulic shocks and pulses should be 0.5 to 0.8 times the rated pressure of the accumulator circuit.
