ESS Engineering has released the new ESS IPS Secondary, combining the design features of the 20Ten Inline cleaner with new features that improve serviceability and safety.
Carryback from conveyor belts is an everyday occurrence, resulting in reduced operation efficiency, reduced safety, increased maintenance cost and increased environmental contamination.
ESS IPS Cleaners deliver high-quality belt cleaning performance and high-quality serviceability for a variety of applications.
Like the ESS 20-Ten Inline Premium, the IPS Cleaner utilises a mainframe and cartridge manufactured from stainless steel, making them suitable for all environments, including sites that deal with corrosive material.
The narrow profile design of the IPS Cleaner allows installation in confined spaces like restrictive head chutes.

The new IPS cartridge design fully encapsulates the mainframe, reducing the material that can build-up inside the cleaner, making it safer to service with less effort.
The IPS Belt Cleaner is usually used in conjunction with a head pulley primary cleaner such as the ESS XHD, DT or TM DOCTOR BLADE Primary Cleaners.
The IPS cleaner is normally mounted so the cleaning blades contact the belt as it leaves the head pulley or other accessible position on the return belt. The blades of the IPS, when tensioned, lay in the direction of belt travel, contacting at a negative angle and presenting no snag or danger to the belt or splices.
The belt cleaner’s other features and benefits are narrow profile design, new tensioning bracket design, ESS tensioning devices for blade adjustment while the conveyor belt is running and modular blades that allow for the optimal blade to belt contact.
