Bucket Elevators are among the most common conveyors used for making vertical lifts of bulk materials. The materials being conveyed can vary over a wide range of sizes from powders to pellets. Most of these bulk materials inherently produce dusty conditions within the bucket elevators, creating explosive hazards.
In the grain storage and handling industry, the bucket elevator is considered to be the most dangerous piece of equipment in the process. Good housekeeping and explosion prevention strategies have reduced the average number of explosion per year but to do nothing to mitigate the destructive effects of explosions that do occur.
