Pulverized coal Sampling devices are indispensable specialized equipment in the pulverizing systems of thermal power plants. They are used to obtain pulverized coal samples at a constant speed, continuously, and without contamination from the high-speed primary air pulverized coal pipeline. As a "diagnostic sentinel" for boiler combustion optimization, this device achieves three core functions:
Quality Monitoring: Accurately determines pulverized coal fineness (R90/R200) and uniformity index n
Energy Efficiency Assessment: Calculates combustion efficiency through elemental analysis
Safety Warning: Detects abnormal particles (iron parts, gravel, etc.) II. Technical Parameters and Performance Indicators

Repeatability: Data dispersion at the same sampling point < 3%
Sealing: Leakage rate < 0.5%/h in a 4MPa air pressure test
Abrasion Resistance: Lifespan of key components > 100,000 sampling cycles (HV ≥ 800)
The fixed pulverized coal sampling device is designed based on the principle that pulverized coal impacts and settles naturally in the sampling nozzle, then is conveyed out of the pulverized coal pipeline by a screw conveyor and falls into the sampling bottle. The sampling nozzle is fixedly installed in the pulverized coal pipeline, facing away from the direction of pulverized coal airflow. The pulverized coal is carried by hot air in an irregular state in the pipeline. Impacted by the sampling nozzle and settling naturally, a large amount of pulverized coal accumulates in the nozzle. Then, the screw conveyor in the sampling tube conveys the coal into the pulverized coal settling tube. After sampling, the valve is operated to release the pulverized coal into the sampling bottle.
Fault phenomenon | Possible reasons | Solution |
Insufficient sample size | Probe blockage/insufficient negative pressure | Backflush/inspect vacuum pump |
Granularity data anomaly | Deviation of constant velocity ratio/uneven mixing | Recalibrate/Extend sampling time |
Motor overload | Mechanical jamming | Check guide rails / remove foreign objects |
Communication interruption | Line interference/module failure | Shielding inspection/replacement of communication module |

Yes — most of our business is retrofit supply. Send us the duct cross-section, design temperature and media, or drawings, templates and photos of the existing installation. Our engineers will dimension the unit, its flange drilling and the actuator interface to bolt directly into your plant.
Louver-type double-layer dampers with sealing air achieve a leakage rate below 0.5%; fully sealed slide gates and coal mill isolation doors achieve zero internal and external leakage. Every damper is leakage-tested in the works before shipment and a factory acceptance test report is supplied.
