Product Description
2.1
Design and Function

The MARTIN Brush Cleaner is especially intended for cleaning
baked-on materials from difficult rib belts, such as Chevron or
cleated belts. With bristles that are only 96 mm long, the MARTIN
Brush cleaner can achieve good cleaning results on even the most
difficult profile conveyors (maximum height of the lugs or projections
70 mm), and has gained acceptance over conventional cleaning
systems. The MARTIN Brush Cleaner is mainly used individually
as a cleaning system, but can also be used in conjunction with a
secondary cleaner.
The MARTIN Brush Cleaner can be installed below the head pulley
in a centred position to return the bulk material to the material
stream. If the use of this product disrupts the material handling
process or the product becomes contaminated, it is the user's
responsibility to take appropriate countermeasures.
For different applications, different edging materials can be
selected. Two different materials (polyester and brass) are
available, which are specified in more detail in the technical data
sheet. Three different edging patterns (full, spiral and straight-lined)
are available to choose from.
Only the same material and edging types may be used together. A
mixture of different types of materials and edging is not planned for,
and each case must be verified separately.
NOTICE
A poorly installed product or a product installed in reverse can
interfere with the delivery process or contaminate the conveyed
bulk material.
The operating company is responsible for taking the necessary
countermeasures.
In applications with contamination issues, Martin Engineering or a
representative can help with the positioning or with special
solutions.

Installation of the MARTIN Brush Cleaner
4.2.1
Determine the installation position

The position of the shaft and the tensioner of the MARTIN Brush
Cleaner must be determined for both sides of the chute wall. In
order to do that, the positions are determined at which the shaft of
the MARTIN Brush Cleaner will be passed through the chute wall,
or at which the tensioner will be installed on the chute wall.
The MARTIN Brush Cleaner is supplied with a tensioner. This is
dismantled at the factory and will be installed with the MARTIN
Brush Cleaner.

Tab. 1: Installation Steps
During installation, various possible on-site conditions may require

different steps, which can be outlined as follows:
Installing in an encapsulated transfer system
Follow instructions in Section 4.2.2.
Installation in an encapsulated transfer system with available
mounting holes and brackets for conveyor belt cleaners.
Follow instructions in Section 4.2.3.
Installing in an open transfer system
Use the available materials to stay within the dimensions
for proper installation.
1. Before commencing the installation of the conveyor belt system
and all its accessories, disconnect the power supply and secure
it against unauthorised restart. Ideally, the MARTIN Brush
Cleaner should be installed close to a head pulley or counter
pressure roller. The distance should not exceed 200 mm.
2. Choose the installation position so that there is sufficient space
for the installation of the MARTIN Brush Cleaner. This
distance should be at least 350 mm on the outside of the chute
wall on the operator side, and at least 100 mm on the far side.
3. Determine the installation position of the tensioner according to
the dimensions in Figure 2 Mark the holes for the tensioner and
drill them into the chute wall. Follow the same procedure on the

other side.
4. Based on these holes, determine the installation position of the
MARTIN Brush Cleaner shaft. For the shaft, an elongated
hole (see Figure 2) must be cut in the chute wall. Perform the
same procedure on the far side.
5. Screw the tensioner onto the chute wall.
