Conveyor Belt for Thermal Power Plants
The right belt grade for every section of your plant
In a thermal or captive power plant, conveyors move coal from the yard to the bunkers, limestone for the boilers, and ash out of the plant. Coal brings fire risk, ash is fine and abrasive, and some zones near the boiler run hot.
HILFLEX® supplies fire resistant and heat resistant belts for coal feeding, ash handling and material movement in boiler zones.
Belts for a power plant
| Area | Material | Suggested belt |
|---|---|---|
| Coal handling plant | Coal | FR Grade, Impact Resistant at tipplers |
| Boiler feed | Coal, limestone | FR Grade or M-24 |
| Ash handling | Fly ash, bottom ash | M-24, or SHR if the ash is hot |
| Biomass plants | Husk, bagasse, wood chips | M-24 |

Frequently asked questions
Which belt is used for coal feeding in power plants?
FR grade belts are commonly used for coal feeding, especially in enclosed galleries and bunker areas.
Can you supply belts for captive power plants?
Yes, we supply to thermal and captive power plants across India.
What if the ash is still hot when it reaches the belt?
Tell us the temperature and we will suggest a heat resistant grade.
