• Additionally, the sand is re-moistened

so that optimum mouldability is ensured
without the sand sticking to bunkers, silos,
and screens.

Fluidized bed coolers by Georg Fischer

Disa make use of the water evaporation
principle. Depending on the temperature
of the hot return sand, water is used to
achieve best cooling results. The wide range
of plant types is designed for different
requirements (throughput and cooling
performance) and comprises plants of
modular design for a throughput of 20 to
250 t/h. The throughput can be increased
by installing additional components.

The sand coolers are divided into different

compartments so that the quantity of
cooling air can be regulated in each
compartment. The air supply channel can
be installed on each side of the plant.
Practical design of the suction hood and
carefully directed air regulation ensure

Sequence
of Operation

Perfect cooling requires a continuous and

uniform sand flow. To compensate for
irregular sand supply, the hot return sand is
stored in a surge hopper. From there, an
extractor belt transports the hot sand to the
cooling conveyor which is designed with a
perforated bottom plate. Fresh air is blown
through the perforation holes and at the
same time water is sprayed onto the sand
from nozzles located above the conveyor.
Vibrations of the conveyor and turbulence
caused by the air blown through ensure
that sand and water mix well so that the
water evaporates and the sand is cooled.
The extractor belt, the cooling conveyor,
and the sand spraying unit are controlled
by two level indicators located in the surge
hopper. The plant operates only if the
sand in the surge hopper is between the
maximum and the minimum level.

Sand moistening
Sand temperature and moisture are
measured before the sand enters the
cooler. An electronic thermometer controls
the amount of water sprayed in several
steps. Depending on the values measured,
a variable number of spraying nozzles is
engaged or disengaged. This ensures
exact dosage of the water required for
cooling and moistening. The amount of
water sprayed by the first-step nozzle unit
is regulated in relation to the moisture.
The other nozzle units are then engaged
automatically and in steps depending 6
on the sand temperature. Individually 1 Surge hopper 5 Cooling conveyor 9 Moisture sensor
