  • NOMENCLATURE TEXTILE CONVEYOR BELT

    Example: 1000 m DIN 22102 AB 1000 EP 630/4 6/2 Y

    1000 m Length

    DIN 22102 Applicable standard/norm

    AB Manufacturer's acronym

    1000 Belt width in mm

    EP Carcass material (polyester warp / polyamide weft)

    630 Belt's minimum breaking strength in N/mm

    4 Number of plies

    6 Top cover thickness in mm

    2 Bottom cover thickness in mm

    Y Rubber cover grade

    * Note 1: In some regions, PN is used instead of EP, where P stands for Polyester and N for Nylon. However, Nylon is a trademark, nota scientific term. ** Note 2: For textile conveyor belts it should additionally be indicated whether solid, sealed or cut edges are preferred.

    STEEL CORD CONVEYOR BELT

    Example: 2000 m DIN 22131 AB 1200 St 1600 7T/5 X

    2000 m Length

    DIN 22131 Applicable standard/norm

    AB Manufacturer's acronym

    1200 Belt width in mm

    St Carcass material (steel cords)

    1600 Belt's minimum breaking strength in N/mm *)

    7 Top cover thickness in mm

    T Textile reinforcement (in top cover) **)

    5 Bottom cover thickness in mm

    X Rubber Cover grade

    Notes:*) A requirement of DIN standards for steel cord conveyor belts is that the breaking force of a vulcanized steel cord in the conveyor beltshall be at least as great as the product of the minimum breaking strength of the conveyor belt by the cord spacing with an addition ofapproximately 10%.

    **) A damage protection system, above referred to as "T", has not been standardized yet. Ask your belt supplier for rip and impactresistance data!

  • In some world regions it is common to ignore norm values like minimum breaking strength (meaning that not a single test value mustbe below the agreed minimum). Sometimes the "root mean square" method is used, where the average value may be above theminimum in spite of individual unacceptable low figures.
