Application
All conveyor belts Delta and DX-ST can be equipped with the option (if the thickness of the cover is sufficient) of a fabric, steel or aramid breaker ply whose function is to protect the textile fabric of the carcase from ripping or impact. The breaker ply may be inserted in the top cover (1 or 2 breakers) or in both covers if double protection is required. In addition it may be either included in the cover thickness or more of the cover.
Corresponding configurations are called respectively:
• BRK1+0: 1 steel, fabric or aramid breaker, which is always on the top cover.
• BRK1+1: 1 steel, fabric or aramid breaker in the top cover and 1 steel, fabric or aramid breaker in the bottom cover.
• BRK2+0: 2 steel, fabric or aramid breakers in the top cover.
These belts are utilised in applications where resistance to impact is required and there is a risk of ripping due to the character of the material being carried or the possible presence of undesirable sharp objects
