The Complete Guide to Chain

Applications

(2) KL-type attachment is an inclined version of an L attachment. This attach- ment can convey low-density and sticky materials. (3) In grain applications, installation of a cleaner prevents mixing of differ- ent types of grains, and the cleaner removes any particles in the casing that could go bad. Usually the cleaner is installed at intervals of 6 m (Figure 6.15). (4) An M-roller, which rotates more smoothly than an S-roller, is typically used in the base chain. (5) If the conveyed materials are highly abrasive materials, special block chain provides longer wear life. (Figure 6.16 shows a set-up with NFX- type block chain.)
