Flexco Expands Line of Service Advantage Cartridge™ Cleaners

May 11, 2011 - PRLog -- Flexco has simplified installation and maintenance of the Service Advantage Cartridge™ for the Mineline® MHS Heavy-Duty Secondary Cleaner and added the feature to its P-Type® Secondary Cleaner and R-Type® Reversing Secondary Cleaner. The Service Advantage Cartridge is ideal for limiting downtime and easily maintaining the cleaner to ensure superior performance.  

The enhanced design now features a variety of options for locking the cartridge into place, making it adaptable based on local codes and offering solutions for varying space constraints during installation. The Service Advantage Cartridge slides out from the accessible side of the conveyor or chute wall for inspection, service, or replacement by a single worker in only a matter of minutes.

“The enhancements made to the Service Advantage Cartridge allow flexibility for maintenance and installation options, making it even easier to service and inspect the cleaner,” said Ryan Grevenstuk, product manager for Flexco. “Adding this feature to our P-Type and R-Type provides an economical, yet service-friendly solution as well.”

Blade cartridges can be removed in minutes and can be changed without removing the complete assembly pole or brackets from the conveyor. Instead, changing the cleaner blades is done by simply removing a pin, sliding the blade cartridge out through the side, and replacing it with a new or rebuilt blade cartridge. This feature allows maintenance workers to replace multiple blade cartridges during the same maintenance period, saving time and money. The cartridges can also be easily rebuilt on site.

All three cleaners are durable and can be serviced in even the most severe weather conditions. Additionally, the side slide-out design is safer for workers because it doesn’t require them to access tight spaces to remove the cartridge.

A dual cartridge design that splits in the middle for removal from both sides is also available for belt widths of 60 in. to 120 in. For more information on the heavy-duty line of cleaners from Flexco, log on to http://www.flexco.com.
