Qic Lock - Opening Mechnism

Summary

Product identification

The QIC-LOCK™ opening mechanism is designed for use with Maxiline™ Housings, facilitating rapid and safe access for filter element changes. This revolutionary system aims to improve productivity and safety in bag filtration applications.

Key features and benefits

• Fast Operation: Enables opening and closing of Maxiline™ Housing in less than 30 seconds.
• Safe: An interlock mechanism prevents opening until the housing is entirely vented, ensuring operator safety.
• Simple and User-Friendly: Operators can open the cover by rotating a hand-wheel from a single position, eliminating the need for full movement around the housing or the use of tools often required with conventional bolted closures.
• Durable and Rugged Design: Features precision machining for long life and repeatable operation. A special coating protects the spindle surface from wear and corrosion.
• Approved Design: The design is approved for all pressure housing design codes.
• Cost-Effective: Significantly reduces downtime and lowers maintenance costs, leading to high productivity.

Operation for filter element change

The QIC-LOCK mechanism streamlines the process of changing filter elements with the following steps:

1. Open the safety interlock to ensure simultaneous pressure relief.
2. Rotate the spindle using the hand-wheel to open the V-clamp into the end position.
3. Open the cover, aided by a spring-assisted mechanism.
4. Change the filter element.
5. Close the cover.
6. Close the V-clamp by rotating the spindle.
7. Close the safety interlock; the housing is then ready to go online.
