Enquiry Specification for Wagon Tippler with Side Arm Charger and Associated works
NRO/CON/WT/533
EPI – New Delhi Volume-2B, Rev.0 Page 26 of 63
The loaded wagon to be tippled will be decoupled manually from the rest
of the rake and the person doing the decoupling operation will press a
switch installed near-by to indicate to control room that decoupling
operation is complete. Subsequently, pulling of the wagon by SAC,
placing it on wagon tippler, return of SAC to wagon rake for start of next
cycle, tippling of wagon by wagon tippler etc. shall start automatically in
proper sequence.
The SAC will pull and place the decoupled wagon over the tippler. Once
the wagon is placed on tippler deck and SAC clears the tippler deck,
tippler will clamp the wagon, tipple it, return to its original position,
declamp the wagon and other operations as required. The wagon
vibrator will operate automatically, if selected for auto-mode when the
wagon is in inverted position. The type of wagon being unloaded,
identification of sick wagons etc. will be registered in Control desk by the
control room operator.
The water spraying for dust suppression will start automatically when
wagon is being tippled and will stop when the tippler is not operating by
establishing suitable interlocking between controls of wagon tippler and
dedusting system.
Each operational cycle will be repeated automatically till the last wagon
is tippled and removed from the tippler deck. The complete operation
will be done in automatic sequentially interlocked manner and some of
the activities will be parallel so that system can easily achieve a required
tippling rate per hour.
Positioning of Wagon Tippler and SAC will be through proximity switches
and backed-up by heavy duty rotary limit switches. All limit switches and
proximity switches must work smoothly and without adjustment and
mal-functions under severe conditions of vibrations. All rotary switch
and limit switches should be mounted and housed with suitable vibration
damping arrangement.
Wagon counter shall be provided with correction facility by authorized
person to account for sick wagons.
Laser Beam sensors with transmitter and receiver at both ends of
Wagon Tippler to ensure that no other wagon is in close proximity to the
wagon tippler table.
