The LBC Lump Breaking Feeder Valve consists of a rotary shaft hold in position by two half-bodies. Built on
the shaft, it rotates a series of blades angularly offset to each other, allowing them to compress the material
lumps against the fixed grid, fastened to the lower half-bodies. The fine material falls trough the cutting grid
and reaches the next device via the product outlet.
The device has been designed taking into consideration the
“Essential Safety Requirements
of the
Appen-
dix I of the
European Directive 2006/42/CE, known as the Machinery Directive"
, already adopted in the
National Italian legislation
by means of the Legislative Decree no.17 of January 27th 2010.
Important
The terms “device”, “Lump Breaking Feeder Valve” used in this manual refer to the same device.
As components meant for installation in a plant, the Lump Breaking Feeder Valves - not fully provided
with safety means - have to be considered “partly completed machinery”. Therefore, they do not bear
an EC marking.
It is forbidden to start the Lump Breaking Feeder Valve unless the machine/plant in which it is to be
installed has been declared compliant with the Directive 2006/42/EC and further modifications.
