Abstract:
Described is a roller mill (1) for grinding particulate material, such as cement raw materials, cement clinker and similar materials, said roller mill comprising a substantially horizontal grinding table (3), at least one therewith interactively operating roller (4) which is configured for rotation about a roller shaft (6) through the use of a bearing (7) for the roller, and a closed circulation system for lubricant for lubricating the bearing (7) for the roller, said circulation system comprising a reservoir (9), ducts (10) for feeding of lubricant to the bearing (7) for the roller and ducts (11) for recirculating the lubricant from the bearing (7) for the roller. The roller mill is peculiar in that it comprises a pump means (20) which is driven by the rotation of the roller (4), and comprising a first part (21) which is mounted on the roller shaft (6) and a second part (22) which is mounted on the roller (4) and rotating therewith. Hereby is obtained an autogenously regulated pressure pump which during the operation of the mill delivers a significant pressure contribution for recirculating the lubricant to the reservoir, and having a capacity which is proportional to the rotational speed of the roller and hence the lubricant requirement.
Abstract:
A filter press having a plurality of stackable filter plate assemblies comprises at least one turbidity sensing module [20, 220, 320, 420] coupled to a first filter plate assembly [1] within the plurality of stackable filter plate assemblies. The turbidity sensing module [20, 220, 320, 420] is generally positioned between a filtrate drain opening [8a-d] communicating with a filter chamber [14], and either a filtrate port [7, 13] or filtrate discharge tube [4g, 15], in order to determine a level of turbidity of filtrate [50] exiting said first filter plate assembly. Turbidity levels may be determined independently of turbidity levels of filtrate [50] exiting other filter plate assemblies [1] within the filter press. When turbidity levels reach a predetermined threshold, and alarm [80] is activated, which informs an operator of the need to replace a filter cloth associated with the affected filter plate assembly [1].

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a cement kiln tertiary air duct damper unit (1) for a tertiary air duct (3) between a clinker cooler and a calciner of a clinker kiln line comprising at least one flow restrictor (2) which can be inserted into the tertiary air duct (3) to at least partially limit the tertiary air flow in the tertiary air duct by reduction of the cross section of the tertiary air duct. The damper unit comprises a control device (4) attached to said flow restrictor (2) for insertion and retraction of said flow restrictor (2) in and from the tertiary air duct (3), a damper unit housing (5) for housing the flow restrictor (2) in a retracted position comprising at least one control device opening (6) through which the control device (4) may be attached to the flow restrictor (2) such that the flow restrictor (2) may be operated from outside the damper unit housing (5), and the at least one control device opening (6) comprises a sealing device (7) for sealing a gap between the control device opening (6) and the control device (4) such that the inside of the tertiary air duct (3) is sealed from the outside surroundings of the tertiary air duct (3) through the damper unit housing (5) and wherein the control device (4) comprises means for internal cooling of the control device.
