Conveyor Belts: Specification for Rubber- or Plastics-Covered Conveyor Belts of Textile Construction for Underground Mining
Also Known As:
BS EN ISO 22721:2007 is a standard that specifies the requirements for conveyor belts used in underground mining. Specifically, it covers rubber- or plastics-covered conveyor belts made of textile construction. The standard applies to both flat and troughed idlers used in the mining industry. It should be noted that this standard does not apply to light conveyor belts as described in ISO 21183-1.
While the standard provides requirements for rubber covers, it does not include requirements for plastics covers. The specifications for plastics covers need to be agreed upon by both the manufacturer and the purchaser, taking into account the specific type of plastics to be used.
Additionally, the standard provides recommendations for related items that are not mandatory requirements but are recommended to be agreed upon between the manufacturer and purchaser. It also suggests details that the purchaser should provide when making an enquiry for belting.
It should be noted that the standard does not cover the assessment of a belt's ability to run straight until it is installed. Therefore, requirements for this aspect are not included in the standard. However, recommendations for managing lateral drift are provided.
