3 Description of the product

3.1 Description of the product function

The air cannon is used to dissolve baked-on materials, arch formation, rat holes and other types of build-ups. The air cannon achieves this by “shooting” air through pipes or special nozzles in a bulk container or, for example, in smoke channels. This eliminates the build-ups and restores trouble-free material flow.

Examples of various types of build-ups:

• Silo (A) baked on material

• Silo (B and C) Arch formation

• Silo (D) Rat hole

3.6 Required Accessories

Various accessories are required for the full operational capacity of the air cannon. These include, for example, solenoid valves, filters, controllers, pressure gauges, ball valves, hoses, flange brackets and nozzles and can be purchased from Martin Engineering. Refer also to Section 9 “Part numbers” in these installation instructions.

The use of various accessories may be necessary depending on the usage conditions. Please contact Martin Engineering or one of its authorised contracted dealers for this.

3.7 Air cannon service life

Depending on the external usage conditions and the process parameters, a service life of up to 10 years is possible for the complete air cannon if all local and international pressure vessel regulations and the required maintenance and inspection intervals for the air cannon tank, the valves and all accessories are complied with.

3.8 Number of load changes

The air cannon valves are designed to withstand at least 1,000,000 firing operations. Differing numbers of load changes apply for the various pressures of the different air cannon tanks. They are specified in the documentation of the air cannon tank manufacturer. The numbers of load changes specified there must not necessarily mark the end of the air cannon's service life. Also note the local regulations for this and to what extent they differ from those of Martin Engineering.

3.9 Control variants
The air cannon can be operated using three different control variants:

• Control by a manual valve:

The air cannon is fired by actuating the valve. The valve is usually installed directly on the air cannon or in its very close proximity. Every air cannon must be fired separately.

• Control with an electro-solenoid valve or solenoid valve cabinet:

The air cannon can be fired by an external signal or directly on the valve by manual actuation. The valves can be placed directly on the air cannon or also placed centrally. Firing by an external signal makes remote and time controlled firing possible.

Depending on the chosen control variant, only the relevant section of these installation instructions must be carried out.

NOTE

The air cannon tank can optionally be filled directly using a separate filling line if filling times quicker than the standard filling times (see technical data sheet) are required. This must not be greater in cross-section, however, than the standard filling line; please also note Figure 8 and follow the instructions below!

NOTE

Make certain when filling the air cannon tank directly that the flow rate of the filling hose does not exceed the maximum blow-off capacity of the safety valve. This is 1650 Standard L/min at 8 bar and 1960 Standard L/min at 10 bar. If the flow rate of the filling hose exceeds the permissible blow-off values, then it must either be reduced or a suitably designed safety valve installed.

10. The delivery should include the following parts, depending on
the scope of the order:

• MARTIN® TORNADO air cannon.

• Installation and operating materials depending on the scope of the order.

• Installation instructions and warning and safety labels.

11. Report any missing or damaged parts to Martin Engineering or one of its contracted dealers.

12. Ensure that sufficiently high pressure relief is provided if compressed air is discharged into closed systems. This can prevent the internal pressure from reaching values which can damage the system. The individual design parameters of the system must also be noted. The transient increase of the air pressure in the system after the air cannon is discharged can be calculated by the following equation:

13. If the calculated compressed air exceeds the system-specific overpressure, then one or more pressure relief devices must be installed to protect the system. Comply with all of the applicable laws and standards in this process.

5.1 Safety information

WARNING! RISK OF EXPLOSION!

Increased risk when using a cutting torch or welding device in closed rooms!Check the gas and dust content of the air before usage.

WARNING! RISK OF EXPLOSION

Flying sparks or mechanical stresses can cause the air cannon tank to explode.Never weld the air cannon tank and never expose it to mechanical loads such as clamping or mechanical stresses.Bleed the air cannons before every type of installation and maintenance work.

DANGER! MATERIAL FLYING ABOUT!

Firing the air cannon can cause material to be slung around which can lead to fatal injuries.Do not open any access ports to the container and to not enter it for as long as the air cannons are filled and operating.Clear out the safety zone before firing if the air cannons are installed in an open container.

WARNING!

If there is an excess pressure of more than 0.28 bar in the bulkcontainer, then suitable measures must be taken to prevent materials or media from the bulk container from penetrating the air cannon. This would contaminate the valve and the tank and impair the functional reliability of the air cannon.

WARNING! RISK OF EXPLOSION!

The air cannon tank can burst if the permissible operating pressure is exceeded.Refer to the safety valve documentation for further information.Never use a safety valve with a pressure limit higher than the air cannon tank's allowable operating pressure or with an exhaust output lower than that of the air cannon.

5.4 Commissioning
1. If multiple tank openings or ports exist, then appropriate warning labels must be attached to all of them. Additional warning labels can be ordered from Martin Engineering or a contracted dealer.

2. Vent all of the compressed air lines.

3. Start up the compressed air supply to the air cannon; the air cannon tank fills with air.

4. Check the air cannon installation for leaks. Note Section 7 “Troubleshooting” if leaks occur.

NOTE

It is necessary in the case of larger air cannon systems that the air cannons be vented individually to prevent a heavy pressure loss in the pressure system.

NOTE

Although the recommended minimum pressure for most applications is 3 bars, a lower operating pressure is possible. Ensure that the air cannon is supplied solely with filtered and controllable compressed air (see Section 9.11).

NOTE

Make sure that the safety slide is open before firing the air cannon. This is indicated by the "Open" and "Closed" labels on the safety slide.

NOTE

If the air cannon does not fill during the initial start-up, this can be determined by loud rustling noses in the tank or by the gauge display (if provided), Note Section 7 “Troubleshooting”.

NOTE

A small amount of air escapes from the solenoid valve and the venting valve during initial commissioning and every subsequent restart.


Installatio

n

5. Fire the air cannon.

• Fire the air cannons manually with the handle on the air cannon valve.

• Air cannons with electro-solenoid valve and external control system by a signal from the control system (by button, time sensor,etc.) or by manual actuation of the electro-solenoid valve.

DANGER! MATERIAL FLYING ABOUT!

Firing the air cannon can cause material to be slung around which can lead to fatal injuries.Close all access ports to the bulk container and do not enter it for as long as the air cannons are filled and operating.Clear out the safety zone before firing if the air cannons are installed in an open bulk container.

NOTE

Since a loud venting noise forms when the air cannon is fired, wear hearing protection.

NOTE

This is an additional option for firing the air cannon which can be used for all installation variants. Manual actuation serves as a troubleshooting aid if the air cannon does not fire.


Inst

alla

tio

n

6. Test each air cannon by firing it five times. Wait after every discharge until the air cannon tank is completely filled and the filling process is completed. This can be determined by loud rustling noise in the tank or by the gauge display (if provided).

NOTE

A signal is sent to the electro-solenoid valve when the installation is correct and the selected air cannon is fired.

NOTE

The air cannon can be started up if correctly functioning. Refer to Section 7 “Troubleshooting” if problems occur.

NOTE

Make certain that the air cannon is always filled with compressed air or protected by a safety slide. This makes it ready to operate at all times and no process material can penetrate it.
