Anti-static V-belt
Thread Content
Dear sea friends: Hello everyone. During the safety inspection, the experts found that our company has hydrogen compressors driven by belts, and they required that the V-belts be replaced with anti-static V-belts in order to pass the inspection. Does anyone know any manufacturers of anti-static V-belts? Are there any other solutions besides this? Procurement Logistics Group
There should be. Check equipment and rubber product manufacturing units. Reference.
There are some. This expert is fairly good; some experts simply tell you that you can’t use a belt drive and that you need to switch to a coupling instead.
Friction between rubber and steel generates static electricity. Ordinary V-belts cannot be used; indeed, adjustments are required.
The hydrogen compressor I have here does indeed use an anti-static belt
There are many anti-static belts; you can look for them online
This expert is really “polite” – GB-50160, 5.7.7: “Combustible gas compressors.” . . Belt drive is not allowed\":L
Replace it as soon as possible; sooner or later an expert will point it out to you, and it must be corrected
