LED1000 Lamp Recycler – How it works
Discover the LED lamp recycling technology that goes into our processor.
The new Balcan LED1000 lamp recycler is purpose built to help future proof a lamp recycler’s business.
The system has two loading points, one for linear and the other for smaller led bulbs.
Easily docked with the main system
Each option is easily docked with the main system ensuring everything is enclosed prior to processing and at negative pressure.
Smaller LED bulbs are emptied onto a loading table where contamination can be removed. These then chute down onto a conveyor where they travel up to the main screening processor. Linear LED tubes are placed directly onto a conveyor before conveying up to the processor.
After the main screening processor the processed leds convey to a second screening process to be separated into aluminium, ferrous, non-ferrous, plastics and glass fractions.
Each fraction is collected in tippers or bulk bags.
It is vital the system runs under negative pressure and is fitted with particulate filters as well as an carbon filter for mercury vapour removal (where present).
The system control is zoned, meaning it has to be started correctly in order to run. This also allows for individual operation of equipment if required for maintenance. However, in line with directives the safety circuit is universal, meaning it controls the whole of the system.
How the LED1000 Recycler works
Linear Conveyor Loading
A linear conveyor loading system is used to allow both LED tubes and lamps and small mixed WEEE to be put into the processor with ease. The versatility of this loading system means the conveyor can be removed to allow for larger lamps and electronics to be placed straight into the recycler.
Ferrous/non-ferrous collection area
The LED1000 uses advanced sorting mechanisms to separate ferrous and non-ferrous fractions. By separating these into their own streams, businesses can realise a greater return on investment.
