Key Factors to Consider


  1. Material Properties: Understanding the characteristics of the material you'll be conveying is paramount. Factors like particle size, density, moisture content, abrasiveness, and temperature sensitivity all influence system design.


    • Delta Ducon Solutions: We offer specialized systems and components designed to handle a wide range of materials, including fragile powders, abrasive granules, and high-temperature materials.


  2. Conveying Distance: The distance materials need to travel plays a significant role in system selection. Longer distances may require different configurations and pressure considerations compared to shorter runs.


    • Delta Ducon Expertise: We design systems optimized for various conveying distances, ensuring efficient material transport and minimal pressure drop, regardless of the distance.


  3. Conveying Capacity: Determining the required throughput is essential for selecting the right system components and ensuring efficient operation. Capacity needs influence pipe diameter, air velocity, and blower selection.


    • Delta Ducon Advantage: We meticulously calculate system parameters to match your capacity requirements, preventing issues like material plugging or excessive wear due to improper air velocity.


  4. System Layout: The complexity of the conveying path, including bends, vertical lifts, and multiple destinations, influences system design and efficiency.


    • Delta Ducon Capabilities: We optimize system layouts to minimize pressure drop and energy consumption, ensuring smooth material flow and efficient operation, even in complex configurations.


  5. Energy Efficiency: Minimizing energy consumption is a priority for sustainable and cost-effective operations. System design, component selection, and proper controls play a vital role in energy efficiency.


    • Delta Ducon Commitment: We prioritize energy-efficient solutions by optimizing system parameters, selecting appropriate blowers and components, and incorporating advanced controls to minimize energy waste.


  6. Maintenance and Accessibility: Consider the ease of maintenance and accessibility for inspections and repairs. System design should facilitate routine upkeep and troubleshooting to minimize downtime.


    • Delta Ducon Approach: We design systems with ease of maintenance in mind, incorporating features like easy-access inspection ports and adjustable components to simplify upkeep and minimize downtime.
