General Design Modular galvanised steel construction available in 1.5m, 2.2m and 3m widths. The drier can be increased in length in 1m increments from 8.5m to 65m (including drive and tail). The overall height of the drier is dependent on the heat source chosen. • There is a rotary brush to clean the belt as standard - for usual biomass and granular products this is satisfactory. Every piece of the belt is cleaned once per revolution automatically. • Automatic control as standard is by measuring air temperature on the same principle as the grain drier. The way this works is to measure the...

General Design • The Perry Belt Drier has an automatic belt tracking device which works using a sensor at the side of the belt, which senses if the belt travels to one side. If the sensor is touched an electric actuator changes the angle of the tracking roller which sends the belt across to the opposite side. • The Perry belt drier does not have chains or slats, keeping it very clean. In driers with slats and chains, products such as grass or herbs will leave residue. This will decompose and the bacterial count inside the drier will increase. In the Perry belt drier there is less chance of...

Heat Source Options Heat Exchangers • Heat exchangers are commonly used for applications where a biomass heat source is available such as woodchip boilers to produce hot water, or if there is a steam heat source available. The drier can be tailored to accept existing heat exchangers if required. If a separate heat source is required a direct fired furnace with diesel, kerosene, LPG or natural gas burner can be used. Alternatively a heat exchanger with the same burner can be used for indirect heating if required. Belt Information Fitted with a universal belt, the Perry belt drier is suitable...

Principle of Operation Cold air is drawn through the heat exchangers where it is heated to the required temperature. The warm air is then drawn down through the product bed & belt and dispersed through the fans.

Options Infeed Options • Screw feeder - a feeding hopper that can be used as a buffer hopper to help feed the product evenly over the belt. This feeding hopper will have a number of screw feeders dependant on the width of drier chosen. The hopper can be fed via dump loading, elevators, conveyors or screw conveyors. • Belt feeder - this can be used singularly or in a row of multiple feeders. The belt feeder ensures a level product bed going into the drier & acts as a buffer hopper. • 2m buffer hopper - a 2m tall buffer hopper can be added to screw feeders to ensure the drier is fed at a...
