SECTION 2 - INTRODUCTION
ESS 2000 Series is a conveyor belt skirting and sealing system comprising a rubber or urethane
seal and a weld-on clamp assembly.
ESS 2000 Series attaches to the outside of the conveyor belt load skirts to provide an effective
seal and prevent material loss and dust emissions.
Each ESS 2000 Skirting assembly comprises a 1200mm long backplate with four captive wedge
or cotter assemblies and two 590mm long clamp plates. The backplate may be site cut to 600mm
long and used with a single clamp plate. This enables skirt lengths of any multiple of 600mm to be
accommodated using standard components.
For skirt lengths that are not a multiple of 600mm, refer to Section 4.1 for installation details.
The rubber seal is secured in place by the clamp plates which are in turn held by two captive
wedges (or Cotters). This system allows ease of adjustment or replacement of the rubber seal.
Never install a Clamp Plate that is secured by only one captive wedge (Cotter).
Severe belt damage may result. Refer to Section 4.1 for installation details.
