features
- Reduced maintenance - Once properly installed, Van Gorp™ Motorized Conveyor Pulleys require no maintenance other than the recommended oil change after each 10,000 hours of operation (equivalent to five years of single shift operation).
- Improved Sanitation – In applications where cleanliness is crucial, a Van Gorp™ Motorized Conveyor Pulley is available with a washdown package. The washdown package includes relubricatable labyrinth seals and stainless steel shell that will tolerat
- Dynamically balanced rotor
- Crowned drum face
- Carbon steel drum - painted machine gray
- Space reduction - nothing extends beyond the confines of the Motorized Conveyor Pulley except the electrical connection, unlike conventional drives. This eliminates the need for external motors, gearboxes, chains, V-belts, and couplings.
- Noise Reduction - With a totally sealed enclosure and all mechanical components running in a continuous oil bath, Van Gorp™ conveyor belt drives reduce noise, assisting employers in reaching many government imposed noise requirements.
- Lighter structures - The Van Gorp™ Motorized Conveyor Pulley can weigh less than conventional drives and distributes the drive weight more evenly within the conveyor frame. This makes structural weight and cost reductions possible.
- Complete protection - Van Gorp™ Motorized Conveyor Pulleys enclose the motor, gearbox, and bearings within a sealed steel shell, protecting them from product spillage and harmful environmental conditions such as water, dust, chemicals, and vapors
- Ready for installation - all units are shipped oil filled
- Carbon steel shafts - treated with rust-resistant coating
- Cast iron end disks - painted machine gray
- Safer Operation - Since nothing rotates except the pulley drum, Van Gorp™ Motorized Conveyor Pulleys eliminate pinch points of conventional drives, reducing the possibility of personal injury due to improperly designed, installed, or maintained gua
- Simplified Installation - With only three parts
- the Motorized Conveyor Pulley and two mounting brackets, a Van Gorp™ conveyor belt drive system can be installed in less than one quarter of the time required for a conventional multi-component drive
- Higher efficiency - The Van Gorp™ Motorized Conveyor Pulley can have a much higher drive efficiency from motor to pulley shell than conventional drives because it has fewer frictional losses. Efficiencies of up to 97% can be achieved.
- Seal protectors - deflect large debris away from seal
- Magnetic drain plug - to collect metallic particles
- Sealed unit - meets NEMA 4/6 and IP66/67. Keeps out dust and flying debris. Good for outdoor, hose down, and occasional temporarily submerged (up to 3') applications.
- Industrial motor - 230/460 dual voltage AC, three phase induction motor is standard. The motor winding is class F insulation.
- Thermal Protector - The Thermal Protector is a heat sensitive, bimetallic switch built into the motor windings. The switch responds to over heating conditions inside of the pulley that may not trip traditional motor contactor thermal overloads. The
- Cast electrical terminal box - painted machine gray: sizes 05 to 12 aluminum
- 16 to 32 gray iron
caution
- Not recommended for use in air brake systems where temperatures exceed 200 °F or where battery acid can drip on tubing.
