SWECO QuickChange PT and NV

1. QuickChange PT


Screen changes have never been easier, faster or safer than with the operator-friendly QuickChange PT from SWECO. This pneumatically powered lift system is operated by simply turning a switch, making screen changing a one-man operation.

The QuickChange PT, our latest generation lift system, features two air cylinders that are self-contained within towers mounted independently on each side of the unit. The end of the cylinder rods raise up from the towers to engage a bracket on the cover or frame and lift the frame stack. The QuickChange PT has a smaller footprint than previous generation systems and is available in both carbon and stainless steel for 48 and 60 inch units.

FAST, SIMPLE, AND SAFE SCREEN CHANGING

A CCESS ANY SCREEN QUICKLY AND EASILY

Screen changes have never been easier or faster than with the operator-friendly QuickChange™ PT from SWECO® . The QuickChange PT reduces screen changing to a one-man operation, greatly reducing the necessary labor and eliminating the need to involve maintenance crews. This pneumatically powered lift system is operated by simply turning a switch, and the motor start-up interlock and slow raise/lower cylinders add to the safety of the system. Screen changes can be made safely and quickly, significantly reducing downtime and greatly increasing productivity. Another SWECO innovation that separates us from the rest. 

THE PNEUMATIC LIFTING CYLINDERS LIFT THE FRAMES TO ALLOW FOR EASY SCREEN REMOVAL

How It Works - QuickChange PT

The QuickChange PT features two air cylinders that are self-contained within towers mounted independently on each side of the unit. With a simple turn of a switch, the end of the cylinder rods raise up from the towers to engage a bracket on the cover or frame and lift the frame stack.

BENEFITS

2.Non-Vibrating QuickChange NV separator



For customers who do not have compressed air available, SWECO offers the QuickChange NV. The QuickChange NV also reduces screen changing to a one-man operation. This non-vibrating design utilizes a set of closed loop hydraulic lifters, which are mounted off the base of the unit or to the plant floor.

Both the QuickChange PT and the QuickChange NV allow you to change screens quickly, significantly reducing downtime and greatly increasing productivity.

 

Screen changes have never been easier or faster than with the operator-friendly QuickChange ™ NV from Sweco ® . QuickChange NV reduces screen changing to a one-man operation, greatly reducing the necessary labor and eliminating the need to involve maintenance crews. Powered by a self-contained hydraulic unit, the system does not require any outside utility hook-ups and no staging area is needed during screen changes. Screen changes can be made quickly, significantly reducing downtime and greatly increasing productivity. QuickChange NV is available on new units or for field retrofit. Another Sweco innovation that separates us from the rest.

Mounting System

Adaptable to a variety of machine sizes and configurations, the QuickChange NV allows for two separate types of mounting systems for your separator. The frame mounted design attaches directly to the side of any six-inch or larger frame, while the cover mounted design can be attached to any metal cover assembly. Both mounting systems provide up to a six-inch opening between frames to easily remove and replace the screen.

How It Works

The QuickChange NV utilizes a set of closed loop hydraulic lifters, which are mounted off the base of the unit or to the plant floor. Brackets are mounted on either the side of the top frame or on the cover. These mounting systems are designed to lift the frame or cover and any additional frames that remain attached. After the removal of the clamp band from the frame level in which the screen will be removed and replaced, the lifters are tilted toward the machine to engage the brackets on the top frame or on the cover for lifting. A hand operated pump lifts the frame(s)/cover above the screen for easy removal.
