Dust Curtain

Installed near end of transfer point chute enclosure, Martin® Dust Curtains slow loading zone airflow so airborne dust settles back into belt cargo.

Features and Benefits:

  • Recommended installation is one dust curtain without slits closest to loading zone, followed by one dust curtain with slits at exit of skirtboard. Additional dust curtains may be installed to reduce air movement and isolate dust suppression or dust collection systems for additional dust control
  • Curtains form a plenum that slows air velocity, allowing airborne particles to return to belt
  • Slit curtains conform to belt load without pushing material off conveyor
  • Curtains hang to 1 inch (25 mm) below normal material profile on belt
  • Curtain bolts into steel frame for simple replacement
  • Rugged 1/4-inch (6 mm) rubber construction provides extended service in tough conditions

Martin Transfer Point Products Reduce Risk Of Fire Or Explosion
This power plant had dust and spillage escaping from the coal-handling systems. To boost material-handling efficiency and reduce the risk of fire or explosion, Martin installed taller and longer skirtboard walls, new belt support systems, abrasion-resistant wear liners, and a multi-layer, low-pressure sealing system on the outside of the chute walls.

Installing Dust Containment Solutions at Sugar Processing Plant
A sugar processing plant in California handles approximately 10,000,000 tons of raw sugar per year through their plant. One of the transfer points was giving them trouble with spillage. They contacted Martin distributor Applied Conveyor Technology (ACT) for their recommendation. ACT recommended upgrading the transfer point with cradles, wearliner, dust curtain and skirting.

Dust Curtain Keeps Fugitive Material From Nearby Homes And Businesses
A Minnesota power generating facility was having trouble controlling dust and spillage and preventing fugitive material from reaching nearby homes and businesses. With variable size and moisture content of the fuel, chips would fall back down. Reducing material turbulence during transfer is essential to prevent fugitive dust.
