Product Feature:
Studies have shown that in conveyors, belt is an important component to address the risk of personnel and installations in an industry. The effect of fire is devastating in terms of losses, both tangible and intangible.
The components of conveyor belt are combustible and can be a medium to propagate fire in an unlikely event. With the advancement in technology, and after much R & D we have been able to impart properties to conveyor belts so that that the fire can be limited at source.
This has been achieved by using a combination of polymers, chemical and additives which can be added to improve the fire retardant properties of the belt without compromising the wear life of the belt.
In order to cater to carrying levels of fire resistance we have developed a range of belts which are in adherence to various domestic and international standards.
- The usage reduces the risk of fire hazard and the potential loss of human life, material and installation.
- The belts are easy to splice.
- The belts are Anti-Static.
Archana FR belts are commonly used in handling coal over ground in coal mines and thermal power plants. They are also used for any materials which are prone to ignition during the process of conveying.
