Triple Pass Rotary Drum Dryer is a type of industrial dryer commonly used for drying various materials such as sand, biomass, sludge, wood chips, sawdust, and other agricultural and industrial waste. It is characterized by its three concentric cylinders or drums through which the material passes, hence the name "triple pass". Each cylinder has a rotating mechanism and airflow system, allowing for efficient and thorough material drying.

Eye-catching design - 3 pass rotary dryer

The 3 pass rotary drum dryer is a breakthrough design and technological update that utilizes a triple ring design compared to the traditional single drum design. Designed specifically for sand drying, this dryer is able to provide more efficient drying results while saving floor space. This design advantage makes it one of the leaders in the sand dryer market.

The working principle of triple pass rotary drum dryer:

When the triple pass rotary drum dryer works, the hot airflow is pumped by the induced draft fan into the inner cylinder of the dryer, and the wet material enters the inner wall of the inner cylinder to pre-dry first. With the cylinder rotating in the cylinder and the hot airflow meeting, the material is lifted by the lifting plate and the hot airflow for full heat exchange while moving forward. Similarly, the fabric turns into the cylinder, the outer cylinder, the lifting plate lifts the material and evenly spreads in the cylinder, the outer wall of the cylinder, with the cylinder rotating at a slow speed, the material in the annular space can experience a long retention time, and finally along the outer cylinder wall and the outer wall of the cylinder on the guide unloading plate to the exit end of the flow through the discharge valve discharged, the exhaust gas by the discharge cover of the upper exhaust pipeline into the dust collector.

From the drying process of the material above, the material is directly dried by the hot airflow at the same time and indirectly dried by the middle and inner cylinder. The drying design is very reasonable and scientific; the low-temperature section of the outer cylinder of the high-temperature section of the inner cylinder has thermal insulation, and the total heat dissipation area of the equipment relative to the single-cylinder dryer is reduced by 50-60%. In short, the triple pass rotary drum dryer has excellent innovation in the equipment's overall design and structural design.

Advantages of the Triple Pass Rotary Drum Dryer

  1. The triple pass design ensures that the material stays in the dryer longer, thus making better use of heat and drying faster.
  2. The material can be evenly exposed to the hot air, and the triple pass rotary design increases the contact area.
  3. Due to the supporting equipment such as sealing and insulation, the efficiency of the dryer is 50% higher than that of traditional dryers.
  4. The three-pass rotary drum dryer occupies a small area and is your ideal choice in a limited space.
  5. You can handle materials with different moisture content and particle size.
  6. The sand dryer can be equipped with an advanced dust collection system to ensure minimal impact on the environment.
  7. Highly intelligent, the electric control cabinet controls the entire drying line.

The supporting equipment of the triple pass drum dryer

Triple pass drum dryer supporting equipment consists of vibrating feeder or disc feeder, bucket elevator, hot air furnace, transmission system, vibrating screen, conveying equipment, etc. The burners supplying the hot air furnace include fuel oil, natural gas, coal and other forms, among which coal is the most common and supports customization.

    (3) The centerline of the four pallets is equal to the centerline of the cylinder, and its parallelism shall not exceed ±0.1mm/m.
  5. After the Installation of the rotary cylinder, its deviation shall not be greater than the following values:
    (1) The end face runout of the two pulleys shall be at most 1.2mm.
    (2) The radial runout of the two pulleys shall not be more than 1mm.
  6. Drive pulley installation:

No-load test triple pass dryer

  1. Empty load test machine time is not less than 8 hours, and make the following checks;
  2. Whether there is any loosening of the other parts of each transmission device and whether there is any impact and abnormal noise;
  3. The load of the motor shall not exceed 20% of the rated power, and the temperature rise shall not exceed 30℃;
  4. The cylinder body has no longitudinal crosstalk or fierce reciprocating swing;
  5. Whether the lubrication and sealing of each lubrication point are good or not, and the temperature rise of the bearings generally does not exceed 30℃.

Note: When the no-load test machine is qualified, can carry out load test machine, load test machine order is: in the operation of the cylinder in the selection of hot air flow, gradually make it reach the working temperature, and at the same time put a small amount of material, until it gets the average load. Repeat the above check requirements in the standard bag running up to 8 hours to determine the accuracy before the official commissioning operation.

The operation sequence of the triple pass drum dryer

Prepare the following work before starting the triple pass dryer

(1) Check whether the hot air furnace and oil supply, gas supply, or coal supply system work normally;
(2) Check whether the pipeline, regulating valve, and ancillary equipment usually operate;
(3) Check whether the feeding, unloading, and conveying equipment is faulty;
(4) Check whether the machine lacks oil, especially the bearings, reducer, and other main parts.

Starting sequence

(1) Light up the hot air furnace and adjust the control valves;
(2) Start the motor of the triple pass dryer;
(3) Start the feeder and conveying equipment;
(4) Start the dust collector.

Sequence of shutdown

(1) 30 minutes before the shutdown, stop the hot air furnace oil supply, gas supply, or coal supply system, and stop feeding;
(2) Wait for all materials in the dryer cylinder to be unloaded, and then turn off the motor of the dryer;
(3) Stop the equipment for transporting dry materials;
(4) Rotate the cylinder every 10-15 minutes after stopping the machine until it cools down to prevent it from deforming. If the machine stops due to an accident, besides controlling the oil supply, gas supply, or coal supply immediately, the cylinder should also be rotated according to the above methods, and the materials in the cylinder should be emptied as much as possible until the cylinder cools down;

Joint problems, causes and troubleshooting methods of triple pass rotary drum dryer during operation.

After drying, the final moisture of the material is greater than the requirements.

After drying, the final moisture of the material is greater than the requirements of the specifications of the specified value of the reason is that according to the production capacity of the material, and with the matching heat is insufficient, the exclusion of the method is to improve the furnace temperature or reduce the amount of feed;

After drying, the final moisture of the material is less than the specified value.

After drying, the last water of the material is less than the fixed value because the heat supply is too much or the wet material feeding amount is small. The solution is to increase the amount of damp material feeding, but the material in the cylinder filling cross-sectional area shall not be more significant than 20% of the cross-sectional area of the cylinder, so you can also reduce the supply of hot air that is, to reduce the supply of oil, gas or coal;

Rotating cylinder vibration or up-and-down movement

Rotating the cylinder vibration or up and down flutter produced by: the pallet device and cylinder connection damage should be corrected. The position of the pallet is incorrect and should be adjusted;

Bearing temperature rise is too high.

Bearing temperature rise is too high because of a lack of lubricating oil or dirt, adjusted too biased, or jamming phenomenon should be dealt with promptly.
