Section 3 3.1
Safety - Warnings & Precautions LockoutlTagout One of the most widely applicable industrial safety principles is Lockoutrragout. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and the American National Standards Institute (ANZI) have both addressed the requirement for LockouUTagout. OSHA requires that each employer formulates a written procedure for implementing a LockouUTagout safety program, including training employees to assure that it is properly utilized. The following are a few important points to keep in mind. 1. The principle of LockouUTagout is to protect personnel from the unexpected energization, start up, or release of stored energy from the equipment or process. 2. The LockouUTagout principle requires that locks and tags be affixed to the point where energy can be disconnected from the equipment or process. 3. Sources of energy are not restricted to electrical; that is, disconnecting the main power switch may not eliminate all sources of unexpected activation. While electrical power always should be disconnected, a person knowledgeable about the equipment or process must assess the system for circumstances in which other forms of energy may be stored and released. 4. Personnel who are most vulnerable to injury from the activation of energy are maintenance personnel who must disassemble, expose and work on the equipment in the process of repair or service. The following serves as a reminder to apply this important safety principle when working on the equipment. Disconnect or remove all sources of stored energy before performing maintenance or other service actions. Failure to eliminate or block sources of stored energy can result in unexpected movement of equipment elements and cause serious injury or death. Follow your Lockout/Tagout procedure.

Media Warnings 3.2.1 Highly Explosive Dust Products (parts), which produce highly explosive dust, such as Magnesium, Titanium, Zirconium, Thorium, etc., should not be processed in this equipment, unless appropriate safety measures are followed (consult expert authority). Obtain approval of your plant safety director and comply with applicable NFPA (National Fire Protection Association) guidelines. Note: Personnel should not smoke. use matches nor have open flames around this equipment during operation. 3.2.2 Aluminum Media & Parts
Comply with all applicable sections of NFPA guidelines for processing or handling of aluminum dust and fines that may be pertinent to your specific operation. In applications involving the use of dry type bag or cartridge dust collector system and Aluminum Media or surface blasting of Aluminum Parts, precautionary measures must be taken to minimize the risk of dust collector fires and/or explosions. The following procedures should be followed. 3.2.2.1 Adding Limestone - Dry Type Collectors No. 200 mesh agricultural limestone (CaC03) should be added to the ventilation system at a continuous rate of 0.2 oz per hour per square foot of filter area. Caution: CaC03 is crushed limestone rock (not to be confused with lime, otherwise known as hot lime, burnt lime or hydrated lime. These highly reactive lime products should not be used). 3.2.2.2 Dust Collector Hopper(s) The dust collector's refuse hopper(s) must be emptied at frequent intervals and at the end of each shift of operation. Collection of more than 1/3 the hopper capacity should not be exceeded. If external containers are used to collect refuse, they must never be allowed to overfill and back up into the collector hopper. All equipment must be grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Codes (NEC) to minimize static electric charges.

Blast Wheel 25 EZEFIT Blast Wheel 4.1.1 How the Blast Wheel Works
Media from an overhead storage hopper is metered to the center of the wheel unit that is rotating at high speed. A feed spout provides a smooth transition from the feed line to the impeller rotating with the wheel. The impeller moves the media through its multiple tapered openings and out through the single stationary opening in the control cage. Controlled quantities of media are then distributed onto the rotating blade surface at precisely the right time. The media particles picked up on the inner ends of the blade's throwing face are rapidly accelerated as they move to the end of the blades at the outer edge of the wheel. Media then leaves the wheel in the form of a pattern with a narrow width and variable length that must be properly focused on the work surface for the desired results.

4.1.3 Setting and Adjustment The setting and adjustment of your Blast Wheel is important for the performance and life of your machine. You will not accomplish the surface preparation of your work if you are not hitting it! Not only will your blast time increase, but you are accelerating wear on the insides of your machine. A properly set control cage can prevent this. 4.1.4 Wheel Direction A Blast Wheel can be run in a, clockwise (CW) or counterclockwise (CCW) direction, depending upon the design requirement of a given wheel. Care should be taken, particularly during start-up that a Blast Wheel is running in the proper direction. The direction will be clearly identified on the Blast Wheel housing by a directional arrow. To maintain optimum performance during the life of your blast machine, it is vital that the wheel direction remain as originally designed by Wheelabrator.
Direction of the Blast Wheel should be determined by looking at the wheel from the feed spout side of the Blast Wheel.
4.1.5 Control Cage Setting 1. The control cage setting is one of the most important adjustments that can be made on your machine. A properly adjusted blast pattern will give you an effective and economical surface preparation machine. A pattern that is improperly set will cause premature wear inside the blast cabinet and on the wheel housing liners. 2. To better understand this important setting, please study the sketches shown in Figures 42, 43, 44 and 45. Figures

The "Hot Spot" 1. The areas in Figures 4-2, 4-3, 4-4 and 4-5 referred to as a "Hot Spot" are characteristic of all blast wheels and are in the areas of the blast where about 70% of the blast intensity is contained. The position of the "Hot Spot" is therefore very important in terms of surface preparation efficiency.
GROUP
4.1.6
2. By using the arrows marked on the face of the control cage, you may roughly set the control cage position. These arrows identify the location of the opening in the control cage and it is this opening that controls the point where the media is picked up by the blades. The arrows identify the leading and trailing edges or points where the media starts and stops leaving (exiting) the control cage. 3. For a clockwise blast wheel, the arrow on the left is the leading edge and for a counter-clockwise blast wheel the arrow on the right is the leading edge. The remaining arrow indicates the trailing edge for each direction. 4. When reference is made to "hour" settings while discussing the control cage settings, it is important that 12:00 is understood to be at the top and center of any blast wheel housing, exactly opposite or 180 from the wheel housing opening.
0
5. The best way to locate the Hot Spot is to check and set blast patterns. To eliminate unnecessary work when replacing control cages, the position of the leading edge should be clearly marked to enable the new cage to be placed in the exact same position. 4.1.7 Blast Pattern 1. The abrasive thrown by the wheel must contact the work in order to clean it, therefore the blasting efficiency also depends on the direction the abrasive is thrown, i.e. the direction of the abrasive that is thrown is primarily determined by the position of the control cage.

2. The actual check of the blast pattern of the wheel should be made when the machine is put into operation. The check should be repeated when any decrease in blast efficiency is noted and the control cage opening reference mark information has been lost. The blast pattern checked should also be repeated if a change is made in the size or type of abrasive media used and if the RPM (speed) of the wheel is changed. 3. To check the blast pattern, secure a piece of 12-guage sheet metal about 12" x 48" (called a target plate) in the same relative position to the wheels, as the component to be cleaned would be. This plate should be held rigid. 4.1.7.1 To Check Blast Pattern 1. Turn main disconnect off and follow lock out/tag out procedures. 2. Gain access to the blast chamber area. 3. Secure target plate in front of the wheel you are checking 4. Verify target plate is positioned at 90 to blast flow and perpendicular to the wheel. 5. Turn main disconnect on following lock out/tag out procedures. 6. Press control power 'on' push button and start entire system exceQ! work conveyor. 7. Blast target plate for approximately 45 seconds by setting the cycle timer for 45 seconds or by holding the blast pattern test pushbutton down for 45 seconds. 8. Allow time for dust and abrasive to clear target plate area. 9. Follow shut down, lock out/tag out procedures. 10.

The "Hot Spot" 1. The areas in Figures 4-2, 4-3, 4-4 and 4-5 referred to as a "Hot Spot" are characteristic of all blast wheels and are in the areas of the blast where about 70% of the blast intensity is contained. The position of the "Hot Spot" is therefore very important in terms of surface preparation efficiency.
GROUP

2. By using the arrows marked on the face of the control cage, you may roughly set the control cage position. These arrows identify the location of the opening in the control cage and it is this opening that controls the point where the media is picked up by the blades. The arrows identify the leading and trailing edges or points where the media starts and stops leaving (exiting) the control cage. 3. For a clockwise blast wheel, the arrow on the left is the leading edge and for a counter-clockwise blast wheel the arrow on the right is the leading edge. The remaining arrow indicates the trailing edge for each direction. 4. When reference is made to "hour" settings while discussing the control cage settings, it is important that 12:00 is understood to be at the top and center of any blast wheel housing, exactly opposite or 180 from the wheel housing opening.
0
5. The best way to locate the Hot Spot is to check and set blast patterns. To eliminate unnecessary work when replacing control cages, the position of the leading edge should be clearly marked to enable the new cage to be placed in the exact same position. 4.1.7 Blast Pattern 1. The abrasive thrown by the wheel must contact the work in order to clean it, therefore the blasting efficiency also depends on the direction the abrasive is thrown, i.e. the direction of the abrasive that is thrown is primarily determined by the position of the control cage.

2. The actual check of the blast pattern of the wheel should be made when the machine is put into operation. The check should be repeated when any decrease in blast efficiency is noted and the control cage opening reference mark information has been lost. The blast pattern checked should also be repeated if a change is made in the size or type of abrasive media used and if the RPM (speed) of the wheel is changed. 3. To check the blast pattern, secure a piece of 12-guage sheet metal about 12" x 48" (called a target plate) in the same relative position to the wheels, as the component to be cleaned would be. This plate should be held rigid. 4.1.7.1 To Check Blast Pattern 1. Turn main disconnect off and follow lock out/tag out procedures. 2. Gain access to the blast chamber area. 3. Secure target plate in front of the wheel you are checking 4. Verify target plate is positioned at 90 to blast flow and perpendicular to the wheel. 5. Turn main disconnect on following lock out/tag out procedures. 6. Press control power 'on' push button and start entire system exceQ! work conveyor. 7. Blast target plate for approximately 45 seconds by setting the cycle timer for 45 seconds or by holding the blast pattern test pushbutton down for 45 seconds. 8. Allow time for dust and abrasive to clear target plate area. 9. Follow shut down, lock out/tag out procedures. 10. Examine target plate for blast coverage. 11.Adjust control cage as required, if needed. 12. Relocate, reposition or replace target plate as required. 13. Repeat this procedure, starting with step #5, for each wheel on the machine.

GROUP The zone of effective cleaning (Blast Pattern) will be evident on the target plate. If the blast pattern is not satisfactory, the control cage setting must be re-adjusted. Adjustments to the control cage should be no more than 3/8" to 3/4" based on the notches at a time. If the control cage setting is readjusted, you must repeat steps 5-10 to confirm the new adjustment. Once the control cage is properly adjusted, the position of the blast pattern will not change substantially until the internal wheel components wear. An increase in the percentage of fines remaining in the abrasive can also cause the blast pattern to move and lengthen.
4.1.7.2
Figure 4-7.
2. Loosen the two (2) control cage clamps as shown in Figure 4-6 & 4-7. 3. With use of a hammer and a drift pin, punch or similar tool inserted into one of the outer notches, it will be possible to tap the control cage to rotate it in the desired clockwise or counter-clockwise direction. 4. Once the desired position is reached, the control cage clamps are replaced and secured. This locks the control cage in position. 5. Mark the face of the control cage adapter on the wheel housing with the location of the leading and tailing edges of the opening in the control cage. This will enable you to replace the control cage in the correct position every time. 6. Replace feed spout and secure the feed spout clamps.

Section 5 5.1
Media Handling System Function of the Lower Reclaim: The lower reclaim function is to collect contaminants spent media thrown by the blast wheels. The media and contaminants are then delivered by the lower reclaim to the bucket elevator boot section. The lower reclaim is part of a total media recovery system to clean and recycle media back to the blast wheel. 5.1.1 Types of Lower Reclaims: 5.1.1.1 Full Gravity Reclaims: a. Gravity hoppers are used for directing spent media directly to the bucket elevator boot section. b. Gravity hoppers are generally used on small equipment. c. There are no drives or mechanical moving parts in gravity reclaims. 5.1.1.2 Lower Screw Conveyor Reclaims: a. Lower screw conveyors are used when full gravity is not feasible and the product application does not have significant amounts of tramp metal entering the screw area that would otherwise result in jams. Screws may be protected by shed plates, grating and/or screen. b. The volume of media flow determines the size of screw conveyor and horsepower required to move the abrasive to the bucket elevator boot section.

5.4 Functions of a Separator The separator receives contaminated abrasive media from the upper reclaim. In the separating process, the abrasive media is spread out for uniform distribution through the separator to remove the contaminants from the abrasive media. The abrasive contaminants are delivered to the refuse side of the separator. These contaminants are conveyed to the customer's refuse container by means of flexible tubing with a dribble valve. 5.4.1 Types of Separators: 5.4.1.1 Gravity CFS Separator (Figure 5-15) a. The gravity CFS (Compensating Flow Straight) separator receives the abrasive media and contaminants from the head section of the elevator. b. The large contaminants are screened out through a stationary screen. c. The usable abrasive media is separated from the fine abrasive media, sand and scale. This is achieved by pulling air through a curtain of abrasive media. This curtain is maintained across the full width of the separator by a sliding baffle and counterweighted swinging baffle system. J
d. The cleaned usable abrasive media is directed to the storage hopper. e. The fines, sand and scale are directed to the buyer's receptacle at floor level.

LP Magnetic Separators The LP (Low Profile) series of magnetic separators provide a significant improvement in operating efficiency and cost reduction for blast cleaning equipment in a typical foundry. Using a two (2) stage approach, the LP units remove coarse and fine non metallic contaminants from the steel abrasive operating mix and metallic fines from the non metallic waste stream. The primary benefits are: 1. Increased life of wheel components over systems with air;::;~ wash only separators. 2. Reduced maintenance on the blast equipment and dust collector. 3. Reduced loss of usable abrasive and sand. 4. Reduced ventilation air requirement for separators. 5. Reduced metallic content in reclaimed sand.

LP Magnetic
Separators
The LP (Low Profile) series of magnetic separators provide a significant improvement in operating efficiency and cost reduction for blast cleaning equipment in a typical foundry. Using a two (2) stage approach, the LP units remove coarse and fine non metallic contaminants from the steel abrasive operating mix and metallic fines from the non metallic waste stream. The primary benefits are: 1. Increased life of wheel components over systems with air wash only separators. 2. Reduced maintenance on the blast equipment and dust collector. 3. Reduced loss of usable abrasive and sand. 4. Reduced ventilation air requirement for separators.-, 5. Reduced metallic content in reclaimed sand. .-

g. The retained magnetic (ferrous) particles are released from the face of the drum at the end of the magnetic field. h. The released sand with some magnetic particles passes to the Secondary LP separator.
j.
This uniform curtain of material from the magnetic drum falls onto the sloped surface behind the air wash separator swinging baffle.
k. When the abrasive particles build up to the proper height behind the swinging baffle (and adjustable baffle if so equipped) to overcome the resistance of the counter -weights, the swinging baffle will open and permit a uniform thickness curtain of abrasive to flow over the entire edge of the adjustable lip. [See Figure 5-17 (8-8)]

Note: A properly adjusted air wash separator permits only a full width curtain to be presented to the air flow through the separator. This air flow passes between the adjustable lip and the lower adjustable lip.
m. Usable abrasive is directed to a stationary tray screen to capture any oversize material that may have by-passed the rotary screen. n. Usable abrasive passes through the tray screen into the storage hopper for the blast wheels. o. The fine metallic waste material and the small amount of sand removed at the air wash separator pass by the lower adjustable lip and drain into a suitable customer provided waste container at floor level.

Correct clearance allows the baffle to push against the build up of abrasive on top of the lip and prevent any partial curtain leakage of abrasive. [See Figures 5-17 and 5-17 (8-8)] 5. Adjustable Lip - can be adjusted along with the swinging baffle adjustment to achieve the position and relationships described in paragraph 4 above. [See Figures 5-17 and 5-17 (8-8)] 6. Lower Adjustable Lip - Establish a minimum gap of %' between the top front edge of this lip and the back edge of the falling abrasive mix . Additional adjustments of this lip may be required in conjunction with adjustments in air flow through the separator and size, weight & volume of contaminants. An air gap is necessary to allow some horizontal movement of usable abrasive particles as the horizontal air stream carries the lighter weight contaminants and unusable metallic fines out of the abrasive mix.

3. Alternating Pole Magnetic Drum - The magnetic drum system requires proper positioning of the fixed alternating pole magnet inside the rotating stainless steel drum (Refer
.. ~=:-
to Figure 5-17). Using an adjustable wrench~,:-; on the square end shaft, align the upper end of ... ::-:.. the scribe mark on the end of the shaft with the longer scribe mark on the face of the locking collar. Record the short scribe mark reference point from the locking collar. This will position the upper magnet edge with the drop off point of the discharge. The initial setting may need further adjustment to use the magnetic field to minimize the impact of the falling abrasive and sand on the drum surface and maintain a good discharge arc for the metallic particles under the drum. [See Figures 5-17, 5-17 (A-A) and 5-18]
4. Swinging Baffle & Counterweights -The swinging baffle should swing freely but remain closed until sufficient abrasive material builds up behind the baffle to insure the flow of a full width curtain. The air wash will then flow uniformly through the falling material to remove unusable metallic fines and residual non metallic contaminants. The counterweights must be positioned to hold the baffle closed without causing an overflow or partial curtain condition. Make sure the swinging baffle will not stick on the ends near the vertical housing wall. Grind the edges for clearance if required. The vertical back of the swinging baffle should be perpendicular with the edge of the adjustable lip. Use the slotted holes for the bearing mounts to adjust the position of the baffle as required. The bottom edge of the baffle should clear the adjustable lip by approximately 1/8". This gap may change, based on the size abrasive used, to prevent sticking of the baffle on the horizontal lip.

6.1
Dust Collectors Dust collectors provide three very important functions related to the clean and efficient operation of a blast cleaning machine. 1. The dust collector exhaust fan maintains a steady air flow through the separator, required for the air wash operation. The air flow pulls dust, fines and other contaminants from the thin curtain of abrasive media that falls over the lip of the separator. Operating properly, a dust collector will take out only unusable fines.
-"--"
...-
2. The dust collector exhauster provides a negative pressure in the blast cabinet. This is needed to keep dust from puffing out of the blast machine. The puffing effect is caused by the air pump action from blast wheel units . By creating a negative pressure and controlling the flow of air to the dust collector, air outside the cabinet is dawn into the cabinet, rather than air and dust inside the cabinet being forced out. 3. The dust collector retains the fine particles, which otherwise would be exhausted to the atmosphere and cause a potential air pollution problem. Because of the potential environmental problems created by dust and the need for good plant housekeeping and good community relations, it is necessary for all blast equipment to be operated with an efficient dust collector system.

Elements of a Typical Shaker Bag Style Dust Collector: Shaker Mechanism Dustubes are cleaned by the gentle but highly efficient motion of the shaker mechanism which is driven by a totally enclosed motor located at the clean air side or outside the dust collector. The shaker provides a gentle wavelike action from top to bottom of each bag. The motion is similar to the action obtained by hand shaking a rug. 6.2.1.1.2 Filter Bags Filter bags are usually made of cotton sateen fabric, making them inexpensive cloth filters. No metal contacts the filtering area of the cloth filter bags. 6.2.1.1.3 Cell Plate The cell plate retains the bottom or open end of the filter bags that features a sewed-in ring-type spring. This end is folded in half and inserted through a cell plate hole for installation (see picture). When pressure on the hoop spring is released, the tube snaps into place, providing an instant, positive seal with the cell plate surface. 6.2.1.1.1

GROUP J Pulse Bag Style The pulse bag dust collector is a continuous, automatic, pulse-type unit. Its construction incorporates multiple tubular bags supported by tubular steel wire cages. Access may be from outside or from an integral enclosure on the roof. Dust particles are effectively captured on the outer surface of the tubular bags as the air flows through the material into the center of the cage frames. The bags may be made of various fabrics with the most common being cotton sateen or polyester for blast equipment applications. Cleaning is performed by various venturi systems using periodic metered pulses of high pressure air down the center of the wire cages. This reverse air pulse halts the inflow of air and releases the collected dust from the outer surface of the bags. Each pulse sequence frees the dust particles to work their way down the bags and into the hopper.

Diaphragm Valve used on Pulse Bag & Cartridge Style The reverse pulse diaphragm valve delivers a short high pressure pulse of compressed air, reversing the air flow through a cartridge filter or filter bag. This action removes particulate from the filter surface, allowing the dust to fall towards the dust hopper. The valve relies on system pressure acting on a flexible diaphragm membrane to maintain a closed condition against the valve seat. The pressurized cover chamber above the diaphragm is exhausted when an electrical signal is supplied to the solenoid operator of the direct pilot operator (CA). This lowers the pressure differential about the diaphragm and allows the diaphragm to lift off the valve body seat. Compressed air is discharged through the valve outlet. When the electrical signal is switched off the valve exhausts are closed, the pressure differential is balanced by air bleeding from the body to cover the chamber and the diaphragm membrane moves back onto the valve body seat shutting down the sir flow.

Manometer Unit The manometer is a U-tube type to measure air pressure drop across the dust collector filter elements and indicates a need for cleaning or replacement of filter elements.

7.3.2 Charge the Eguipment with Media Before charging the Equipment, the blast gates on vent line from the cabinet, separator and elevator, should be set to one-half (1/2) open position. Final adjustment of the blast gates can be done later when the ventilation system is balanced. Charge the equipment with the desired type and size of media. Load the abrasive material (media) slowly into the equipment. After the media has been added, operate the blast wheel and abrasive cycling system for 2 to 3 minutes. Stop blasting and let reclaim system return all the abrasive media to the storage hopper. If required add abrasive media until the level in storage hopper is 6" to 8" below the adjustable lip under the swinging baffle in the separator. As the equipment operates, check to insure that only fines, sand and/or scale is coming out of the dribble valve on the separator refuse spout. If usable abrasive media is coming out of the dribble valve, verify correct (full curtain) operation of the separator and adjust the blast gate in the vent line to reduce the air flow through the separator slightly. Also check for abrasive leakage around the equipment.

Liners The liners should be inspected and replaced before any holes are worn through. All liners are easy to replace. When installing liners in the wheel housing, it is vitally important that the liner pieces fit up against one another as tightly as possible to minimize housing wear from the blast.
_._.-
8.1.1.2
Wheel Housing During replacement of liners, the housing should be inspected for wear. A defective housing should be repaired or replaced promptly to prevent the escape of abrasive media.
. .-- .
8.1.1.3
Wheel Blades, Control Cage & Impeller The wheel parts should be inspected at the same time that liner inspection is made. Parts should be replaced when worn in accordance with the following criteria: One of the main objects of wheel assembly inspection and maintenance is to keep the wheel in balance. Severe vibration can be a major cause of motor bearing failure. The most frequent cause of vibration is worn, chipped or broken wheel blades. Wear on the wheel blades varies greatly from one installation to another. Blade life is dependent on various operating conditions. Although the wheel blades may be wearing evenly and may not be causing any abnormal vibrations, blades should be replaced before wearing half-way through. Holes in the wheel blade surfaces will cause wear on other parts and disrupt the blast pattern. The edge of the control cage opening and impeller openings will eventually wear and this wear must not be allowed to exceed 1/8" for the impeller and 1/4" for the control cage before replacement. The effect of wear will move the blast pattern and this in turn will cause wear on the machine structure and reduced cleaning of the work.

To replace the control cage and impeller, remove the feed spout and control cage clamps. Remove impeller cap screw and impeller. Withdraw the control cage and fit the new one, make sure that the opening of the new control cage is replaced in exactly the same position as the old one. Reclamp and replace the impeller and feed spout.
8.1.1.4
Removal and Replacement of Blast Wheel Impeller Bolt When removing and/or replacing the impeller cap screw, it is very important that the following procedure be implemented to prevent wheel parts from coming loose and a wheel failure from occurring. This pertains to all blast wheels containing a threaded insert in the wheel shaft. After removing impeller cap screw from the wheel assembly, check the threaded insert in the wheel shaft to assure that it is fully seated (below the surface of the end of the shaft). If the insert screws out of the shaft when removing the impeller cap screw, replace both the cap screw and threaded insert. Do not reuse the threaded insert that has been removed from the shaft. If the threaded insert must be reused, apply loctite #242 thread locker (or equal) to the external threads of the insert prior to reinserting. It is very important that the threads of the cap screw and the threaded insert be clean and free of abrasive contaminants. Prior to reinserting cap screw, use an air hose to remove contaminants. (Comply with O.S.H.A. regulations for use of compress air for cleaning.) Make sure the centering plate is correctly positioned on the hub/wheel drive pins and the impeller is securely locked in the centering plate slots when assembled. Use only the special impeller bolt hi-collar lock washer, listed on your wheel assembly drawing. Do not assemble with a standard lock washer. Tighten the impeller cap screw to 100 ftllbs of torque.

When a worn elevator belt needs replacement, remove the elevator side panel at the boot of the elevator to undo the splice and carefully take out the old belt. You may use the old belt to help pull in the new belt if desired. See note below. Since every belt is "tailor" fitted to each individual elevator assembly, the new belt supplied will probably be 4" to 8" longer than needed. To determine the correct belt length required, measure the distance of the path of the belt around both top and bottom pulleys. Make sure that the head pulley is lowered to the lowest position at the time of measurement. Cut-off must be square. This will result in a tight belt to begin with and allow ample take-up for future needed tension. After the belt is cut, punch in the holes for the splice and bolt the splice on one end of the belt only . Note: While the belt is out of the machine, inspect the boot pulley and head pulley and bearings for wear or damage. Replace any defective parts. The belt assembly can be fed into the elevator housing through the bottom panel opening and pulled up and over the top pulley (use the old belt or rope wrapped over the top (head) pulley), making sure that the buckets are headed in the proper direction for discharge of abrasive into the elevator from the top and fed down the sides of the head pulley. After the belt is "hung" on the top pulley, pass one end of it under and around the boot pulley and complete the belt splicing by using a belt puller while making splices. Proper belt tension can be judged by making the following observations: A. The boot pulley should rotate constantly without slipping or hesitation. B. The unloaded belt should run generally on the center of the elevator pulleys with a minimum of movement from side to side. The elevator buckets should not strike the sides of the housing. C. It should be difficult to manually slide the elevator belt back and forth across the face of the boot pulley when the elevator is stopped. The tension of the elevator belt, however, should not be so great that there is danger of tearing out the splice.

Inspection of the elevator belt alignment is very important. If the belt is permitted to run off center and rub against the elevator housing, the abrading action will eventually damage the elevator housing and belt. Also, an overload is put on the drive motor, which may cause the overload relays to kick out. A take-up screw is provided on each side of the head shaft for maintaining proper alignment. When aligning the elevator belt, make only a slight adjustment at a time, raising the head shaft on the side toward which the belt is riding. Using caution and keeping hands away from top opening, the top cover plate can be removed to permit viewing the belt alignment on the head pulley while the belt is running. Refer to Section 9 "Troubleshooting" for elevator malfunctions and suggested remedies.

CFS Separator Assembly The purpose of the separator is to remove scale, dust and other fine materials from the usable shot (media). This separation is extremely important, since failure to remove these contaminants from the media will not only decrease the productivity (cleaning capability) of the machine, but will also increase the rate of wear on the machine and may cause dust build up on parts. The satisfactory performance of the machine is dependent on the proper adjustment and maintenance of the separator. It is of utmost importance that the operation be constantly checked. Particular attention should be given to the flow of abrasive as it passes through the separator baffle assembly. The separator assembly should be adjusted so that a uniformly thick falling stream of abrasive material is spread across the full width of the separator. This insures that the abrasive material will be properly exposed to a uniform flow of air through the separator for the air wash separation.
e
Created: March 28, 2008 Revision:
NOTE: A full width uniformly thick curtain must be maintained in the separator at all times for proper cleaning of the media. To maintain a uniformly thick full curtain of media across the full width of the separator, the swinging baffle must be properly balanced. This can be accomplished using the counterweight system supplied for the swinging baffle. Be sure the swinging baffle and adjustable lip are straight and have not been damaged in shipment. The blast gate, at the air outlet vent on the separator, can be adjusted to accurately control the size of the abrasive material that will be removed from the good shot (media).

For the machine to perform efficiently, the electrical equipment must undergo periodic inspection to detect any wear conditions, physical damage, loose connections or component failure. Refer to Section 9 ''Troubleshooting'' for electrical equipment malfunctions and remedies. Regular maintenance inspections should be performed with particular emphasis on the following: 8.1.7.1 Control Panel Check out electrical wires and connections for looseness, damage and proper insulation. Tighten, repair or replace. 8.1.7.2 Electric Motors Periodically inspect the motors for excessive dirt, vibration, or abnormal conditions. Clean, correct, or replace as necessary. Keep the ventilation openings of the motor clear to allow free passage of air. If excessive friction and overheating of bearings is noted, it is usually caused by the following factors: 1) Bent motor shaft 2) Poor alignment 3) Lubrication - over/under The bearings of these motors are pre-lubricated with grease by the Manufacturer and should be lubricated after one year of operation. Refer to the Manufacturer's nameplate for type of lubricant. An accurate greasing program should be followed when greasing motors for it has been determined that the greatest cause of bearing failure in motors is over greasing rather than under greasing. Refer to Section 8, Paragraph 8.2 for recommendations on lubricating machine components.

Lubrication-Oil & Grease The life and performance of many components of the equipment are dependent on proper lubrication of components. Most bearings are lube for life and do not require lubrication. Only electric motors and reducers will require lubrication. Thorough lubrication, performed at regular intervals will aid greatly in prolonging the life of the machine components and in improving efficiency of operation. Note: The intervals of lubrication are based on normal
operating conditions.
While lubrication of the required components is essential, lubrication of some drive components of blast cleaning equipment can be detrimental. For example, chains and sprockets should not be lubricated with petroleum base material because the lubricant tends to accumulate metallic dust in the environment. This causes excessive wear on the chains and sprockets. The following recommendations machine components: should be followed when lubricating
1) Shut off power to machine during lubrication. 2) Clean dust and contaminants from the points of lubrication. 3) Clean up excessive or spilled lubricants from the equipment. 4) Use clean lubricants. 5) Do not over lubricate. This could result in overheating and possible damage of the components. 6) The oil in oil-lubricated devices should be changed if the oil shows traces of dirt or shows the effects of high temperature operation, which is evident, by the discoloration of the oil or odor.

7) Drain dirty oil while the unit is still warm, examining for
contamination by metal particles. 8) KEEP IT CLEAN & MAINTAIN

Troubleshooting Before attempting any troubleshooting, maintenance personnel and operating personnel should become thoroughly familiar with the equipment.
._-
Before making any repair or replacement of defective parts, it is very important that the reason for the original failure be determined and corrected. A failure to correct the cause of the problem will inevitably lead to a reoccurrence of the problem, etc. Blast equipment will often continue to operate and will do an acceptable job even though some of the mechanisms or components are not functioning properly causing a decrease in efficiency. It is important for maximum efficiency, that troubleshooting be performed if either of the following is noted: 1) Increase in abrasive consumption, 2) Decrease in cleaning efficiency. As an aid to troubleshooting when a deficiency is noted in one of the elements or mechanism of the equipment, the following tables are provided. These tables list the most common troubles, their probable cause and remedies: 9.1 Blast Wheel Assembly Trouble Probable Cause Possible Remedy
Excessive vibration usually indicates that the Wheel Assembly is out of balance. This condition will eventually cause motor or unit bearing failures.

lubrication Instructions
200 Series Ball Bearings
Procedure For Applying Lubricant To Bearings Apply sufficient grease when lubricating to cause some purging of grease at the seals. ,Lubricant Use a multi-purpose ball bearing grease of NLGI Grade 2 with rust inhibitors and antioxidant additives. An oil viscosity of 100 cSt at 40 C is recommended. Grease for high speed applications should be dynamically stable and must not churn or whip. It is not good practice to mix greases with different oil bases as the results are unpredictable. Several suitable products are: Shell Alvania #2, Exxon (Imperial Oil) Unirex N2, Texaco Premium RB, Chevron SRI #2, and Mobile Mobilux #2. For fans with vertical shafts, consider using a NLGI Grade 3 grease such as Shell A1vania 3 or Exxon Unirex N3. Do not use long fibered greases. Consult CML Northern Blower on proper lubrication if bearings are subjected to temperatures below -10C (15F) or above 80C (175F). Lubrication Interval Table

Split Pillow Block Bearings
22500 Series Double Row Spherical Roller Bearings
This Lubrication Instruction is for 22500 series bearing assemblies utilizing the 22200 series bearings only. Procedure For Applying Lubricant To Bearings And Pillow Blocks Bearing and housing must be clean. Pack each bearing full of grease by swiveling the outer ring open, rotating it as necessary to inject the grease, then swiveling the outer ring closed, being careful not use force in the event a roller end catches the corner of the outer ring sphere. Before assembling the pillow block cap to the base, and after completing bearing and base assembly, fill the pillow block base to the bottom of the shaft with the same lubricant that was used to pack the bearing. Prior to mounting the cap to the base, lightly coat the interior of the cap with grease.
Re-pack the pillow block as described above. Lubricant Use a multi-purpose ball bearing grease of NLGI Grade 2 with rust inhibitors and antioxidant additives. An oil viscosity of 100 cSt at 40 C is recommended. Grease for high speed applications should be dynamically stable and must not churn or whip. It is not good practice to mix greases with different oil bases as the results are unpredictable. Several suitable products are: Shell Alvania #2, Exxon (Imperial Oil) Unirex N2, Texaco Premium RB, Chevron SRI #2, and Mobile Mobilux #2. Do not use long fibered greases. Consult CML Northern Blower on proper lubrication if bearings are subjected to temperatures below -30C (-22F) or above (176F).
so-c
For bearings with contact seals, smear a liberal amount of grease on the contacting surface of the seals. Relubrication Of Bearings Supplied With Grease Nipples Refer to Table 1 as a guide for the relubricating interval. The recommended quantity of grease is shown in Table 2. Bearings should be completely repacked at least once every three years. Bearings which are exposed to high temperature or are cperating in a moist or dirty environment should be repacked more often. Relubrication Of Bearings Not Equipped With Grease Nipples Refer to Table 1 as a guide for the relubricating interval. Remove pillow block cap and extract old grease from bearing and pillow block. If it is not practical to swivel the outer ring open, purge the old grease from the bearing by forcing fresh grease through the bearing.
Notes: 1. Increase the frequency or lubrication in conditions of high vibration, or abnormal temperature, moisture, or dirt. 2. Bearings may run hot for a short time during the "run-in" period, or just after lubricating the bearings. 3. If the bearings are equipped with flushable labyrinth seals, the seals should be lubricated once a month. Storage If the fan is to be idle and not operating for an extended period of time, bearings should be protected as recommended by the manufacturer. The bearings should be completely filled with grease and the fan shaft should be turned at frequent intervals to prevent corrosion and damage.

Lubricants deteriorate in time, and the rate of deterioration is a function of the lubricant used at the operating conditions encountered. Table 1 is based on the use of an age-resistant, average quality grease and is valid for bearing temperatures of 70C (158F) measured on the outer ring. The intervals should be halved for every 15C (2rF) increase above 70C, but the maximum permissible operating temperature for the grease should obviously not be exceeded. Conversely, if the operating temperatures are lower than 70C, the intervals can be lengthened to about twice for operating temperatures of 50C (122F) and below. Where there is risk of the grease becoming contaminated, the relubrication intervals should be reduced. Table 2 SHAFT DlA.

Pack each bearing full of grease by swiveling the outer ring open, rotating it as necessary to inject the grease, then swiveling the outer ring closed, being careful not use force in the event a roller end catches the corner of the outer ring sphere. Before assembling the pillow block cap to the base, and after completing bearing and base assembly, fill the pillow block base to the bottom of the shaft with the same lubricant that was used to pack the bearing. Prior to mounting the cap to the base, lightly coat the interior of the cap with grease. For bearings with contact seals, smear a liberal amount of grease on the contacting surface of the seals. Relubrication of bearings supplied with grease nipples Refer to Table 1 as a guide for the relubricating interval. The recommended quantity of grease is shown in Table 2. Bearings should be completely repacked at least once every three years. Bearings which are exposed to high temperature or are operating in a moist or dirty environment should be repacked more often. Relubrication of bearings not equipped with grease nipples Refer to Table 1 as a guide for the relubricating interval. Remove pillow block cap and extract old grease from bearing and pillow block.

Lubricants deteriorate in time, and the rate of deterioration is a function of the lubricant used at the operating conditions encountered. Table 1 is based on the use of an age-resistant, average quality grease and is valid for bearing temperatures of 70C (158F) measured on the outer ring. The intervals should be halved for every 15C (2rF) increase above 70C, but the maximum permissible operating temperature for the grease should obviously not be exceeded. Conversely, if the operating temperatures are lower than 70C, the intervals can be lengthened to about twice for operating temperatures of 50C (122F) and below. Where there is risk of the grease becoming contaminated, the relubrication intervals should be reduced. Table 2

"M" Series Ball Bearings
Dodge SeM, SKF SYM & FYM
Procedure For Applying Lubricant To Bearings Apply sufficient grease when lubricating to cause some purging of grease at the seals. Lubricant . Use a multi-purpose ball bearing grease of NLGI Grade 2 with rust inhibitors and antioxidant additives. An oil viscosity of 100 cSt at 40C is recommended. Grease for high speed applications should be dynamically stable and must not churn or ship. It is not good practice to mix grease with different oil bases as the results are unpredictable. Several suitable products are: Shell Alvania #2, Exxon (Imperial Oil) Unirex N2. Texaco Premium RB, Chevron SRI #2, and Mobile Mobilux #2. For fans with vertical shafts, consider using a NLGI Grade 3 grease such as Shell Alvania 3 or Exxon Unirex N3. Do not use long fibered greases. Consult CML Northern Blower on proper lubrication if bearings are subjected to temperatures below -10C (15F) or above 80C (176F) Lubrication Interval Table

Notes: 1. Increase the frequency of lubrication in conditions of abnormal temperature, moisture, or dirt. 2. Bearings may run hot for a short time during the "run-in" period, or just after lubricating the bearings. 3. Lubrication intervals should be halved for every 15C (27F) increase above 70C (158F), but the maximum permissible operating temperature for the grease must not be exceeded. Storage If the fan is to be idle and not operating for an extended period of time, bearings should be protected as recommended by the manufacturer. The bearings should be completely filled with grease and the fan shaft should be turned at frequent intervals to prevent corrosion and damage.

The warning notice set out below should be affixed upon the fan equipment:
CML NORTHERN
BLOWER INC.
WARNING
This fan has rotating parts and may be hot. Keep body, hands and foreign objects away from inlet and outlet. Do not touch fan or motor during operation. Operate, install and maintain QDJ in strict accordance with safety practices and instructions in manufacturer's Operation Manual. Do not exceed the maximum operating temperature, speed,or vibration level identified in the manufacturer's catalogues and Operation Manual. Untrained personnel should never operate, install, adjust or maintain fan or motor. ADDITIONAL SAFETY ACCESSORIES FOR THE FAN EQUIPMENT ARE AVAILABLE FROM THE MANUFACTURER. THE RESPONSIBILITY FOR PROVIDING SUCH ADDITIONAL SAFETY ACCESSORIES IS THAT OF THE USER OF THE FAN EQUIPMENT. CONSULT THE MANUFACTURER'S OPERATION MANUAL FOR GUIDANCE. Before starting maintenance work, lock disconnect switch in the off position,de-energize and disconnect all power sources to the motor and to accessory devices and secure fan impeller. Cleanout doors must be secure during operation. Unsecured clean out doors may shoot open during operation because of pressure build up inside the fan. Do not start-up when fan impeller is rotating backwards. FAILURE TO FOLLOW MANUFACTURER'S INSTRUCTIONS AS TO OPERATION, INSTALLATION, ADJUSTMENT, MAINTENANCE, SAFETY EQUIPMENT OR APPROPRIATE OPERATING CONDITIONS COULD RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THIS EQUIPMENT, DAMAGE TO OTHER EQUIPMENT, PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.
Should the warning notice not be affixed to the fan equipment purchased, CML Northern will supply such a warning notice upon request made to its head office. The user of the fan equipment, in making its determination as to the appropriate safety accessories to be installed and any additional warning notices to be affixed upon the fan equipment, should consider (1) the location of the installation of the fan equipment, (2) the accessibility of employ-
ees and other persons to the fan equipment, (3) any adjacent equipment, (4) applicable building codes, and (5) applicable health and safety legislation. Users and installers of the fan equipment should read "RECOMMENDED SAFETY PRACTICES FOR AIR MOVING DEVICES"which is published by the Air Movement and Control Association, 30 West University Drive, Arlington Heights, Illinois, 60004.
Centrifugal fans are best lifted using straps attached to structural base members of the fan. DO NOT LIFT CENTRIFUGAL FANS BY THE FAN SHAFT, IMPELLER, FLANGES OR INLET SUPPORTS. Roof ventilators should be lifted by using straps attached to lifting lugs or base only. Spreader bars should also be used to avoid damage to the butterfly damper assembly or the weatherhood. DO NOT LIFT ROOF VENTILATORS BY THE BUTTERFLY DAMPER ASSEMBLY OR WEATHERHOOD. Centrifugal rotor assemblies (i.e. impeller and shaft assemblies) have been designed to be supported by the shaft, and should be lifted by slings around the shaft as close as possible to the hub on each side of the impeller (wheel). Slings should not press against the side plates of the wheel as this may damage and distort the wheel. A spreader bar should be used when lifting the rotor assembly (Figure 1). The wheel should never rest on the side plates or blades, nor should the rotor assembly be lifted by any components of the fan wheel. To do so may damage the rotor assembly and destroy the dynamic balance that is necessary for low vibration operation. If this balance is destroyed, rebalancing of the rotor assembly will be necessary. If the wheel and shaft have not been assembled, the fan wheel may be lifted by a timber or wrapped bar of sufficient strength passed through the hub. The finished bore of the hub and the bearing surfaces of the shaft must also be protected from damage.
SHIPMENT & RECEIVING CML Northern has thoroughly inspected the fan equipment at its factory and has prepared the fan equipment for shipment in accordance with the uniform freight classification followed by all carriers. The fan equipment should be in perfect condition when received, unless damaged in transit. Upon acceptance by the carrier, as evidenced by a signed bill of lading, the carrier accepts responsibility for all shortages or damage, whether concealed or evident. Claims covering shortages or damage must be made to the carrier by the purchaser. Any shortages or damage should be noted by the user on the delivery receipt. The fan equipment may contain components manufactured by manufacturers other than CML Northern. Such other manufacturers may have furnished instructions and/ or other literature concerning their component. A list of such instructions and/or other literature is forwarded with the fan equipment (see page 15 of this manual). If any of the items on the list are missing, please contact your CML Northern representative, CML Northern at it's head office or contact the component's manufacturer directly.
HANDLING The fan equipment should be handled with care. Some fans are provided with lifting lugs or holes for easy handling. Others must be handled using nylon straps or well-padded chains and cables which protect the fan's coating and housing. Spreader bars should be used when lifting large parts. Axial fans should be lifted by using straps around the fan housing only. DO NOT LIFT AXIAL FANS BY THE MOTOR, MOTOR BASE, IMPELLER OR FLANGES.
Fig. 1 Correct use of spreader bar when lifting centrifugal rotor assembly.

Ducts must be independently supported, and must never be supported by the fan. Use flexible duct connections wherever possible. The independent mounting of stacks and ducts to the fan will ensure that the fan will not be twisted or deformed with the addition of external loads. It is recommended that access doors be placed in ductwork just ahead of the fan inlet and just behind the fan outlet for ease of inspection and maintenance. IN ORDER TO AVOID EQUIPMENT DAMAGE AND PERSONAL INJURY ACCESS DOORS IN A DUCT SYSTEM SHOULD BE SECURELY CLOSED AND SHOULD NEVER BE OPENED WITH THE FAN RUNNING. Lubricate fan bearings in strict accordance with bearing manufacturer's recommendations. Lubricate bearings upon receipt of fan. Do not overlubricate. Bearings should be locked to the shaft. Ensure that locking mechanisms on bearings are in correct position and that locking mechanisms are fastened before operation of fan. Flexible couplings must be installed and maintained in accordance with the coupling manufacturer's instructions. Refer to fan submittal drawings for details of drive arrangements and the generallocation of the coupling halves on the fan and motor shafts.

V-BELT DRIVE INSTALLATION V-belt drive systems are the most common type of belt systems used to drive fan equipment. Other types of belt systems are used ("cog", belts etc.) but are net discussed in this manual. Proper alignment is essential to long fan bearing, driver bearing, v-belt and sheave life. Ensure that driver and fan shafts are parallel. The most common causes of misalignment are nonparallel shafts and improperly located sheaves. Where shafts are not parallel, v-belts on one side are drawn tighter and pull more than their share of the load. As a result, these v-belts wear out faster, requiring the entire set to be replaced before it has given maximum service. If the sheaves are misaligned, v-belts will enter and leave the grooves at an angle, causing excessive v-belt and sheave wear. Shaft alignment can be checked by measuring the distance between the shafts at two or more locations as shown in Figure 2. If the distances are equal, the shafts are parallel. Check the location of the sheaves on the shaft with a straight edge or a length of string. If the sheaves are properly aligned the string will touch them at the points indicated by the arrows in Figure 3. Rotating each sheave one-half (1/2) revolution will indicate if the sheave is misaligned or the shaft is bent. Correct any causes of misalignment.

Too Loose
Always use matched v-belts and never mix new and used v-belts on a drive. Install v-belts correctly: (i) Shorten the center distance between the driven and driver sheave so the v-belts can be slipped into the sheave groove without damage. While the v-belts are still loose on the drive, rotate the drive until all the slack is on one side. Then increase the center distance until the v-belts are snug (Figure 4). NOTE: Never "roll" or "pry" the v-belts into the sheave grooves. This can damage the v-belt cords and lead to v-belt turnover, short life, or actual breakage. Moreover, it is both difficult and unsafe to install v-belts this way. Keep takeup rails, motor base, or other means of center distance adjustment free of dirt, rust, and grit. Lubricate adjusting screws and slide rails as required. Operate the drive and fan a few minutes to seat the v-belts in the sheave grooves (operate the fan equipment ~ after following the procedure listed in the "Operation of Equipment" section of this manual). Observe the operation of the drive under its highest load condition (usually starting). A slight bowing of the slack side of the drive indicates proper tension. If the slack side remains taught during peak load, the drive is too tight. Excessive bowing or slippage indicates insufficient tension. If the v-belts squeal severely as the motor comes on or at some subsequent peak load, they are not tight enough to deliver the torque demanded by the fan. The fan should be stopped and the v-belts tightened.
(iii)
Check the tension on a new drive frequently during the first day of operation by observing the slack side span. After a few days of operation the belts will seat themselves in the sheave grooves and it may become necessary to readjust so that the drive again shows a slight bow in the slack side.
OPERATION OF FAN EQUIPMENT (1) Lock out all power sources. (2) Ensure that bearings are properly aligned and lubricated with special attention to the locking mechanisms, cleanliness, and possible corrosion. Bearings showing signs of corrosion must be replaced priorto operation of fan equipment. Check set screws and keys (or taperlock hub if present) in fan impeller, and bolts on cooling wheel. Check foundation for tightness. bolts and other hardware

Ensure that the fan housing, ducts, etc., are free of foreign objects. Ensure that all access doors are secure. Check the impeller to inlet cone and impeller to fan housing clearance to ensure that there is no interference. Turn the impeller by hand, ensuring that it rotates freely. On belt drive fans, check sheave alignment and v-belt tension (refer to the section entitled "V-BELT DRIVE INSTALLATION" on page 9 of this manual).

If the fan is equipped with damper or variable inlet vane, close same to lessen starting load on motor. Ensure any dampers or variable inlet vanes furnished with the fan, or used in conjunction with the fan, do not stick or bind. If an automatic control mechanism is used to operate the damper or variable inlet vane, adjust the limits of travel of the automatic control mechanism in accordance with the control manufacturer's instructions to avoid putting force on the damper or variable inlet vane when it is fully opened or fully closed. If the fan is driven by an electric motor, read instructions of motor and starter manufacturer. Ensure that the motor and starter are set up in compliance with the motor and starter manufacturers' instructions prior to any application of electric power. If the fan is powered by some other form of driver, read the manufacturer's instructions prior startup. If the fan is equipped with water cooled bearings turn on the water supply to the bearings prior to starting the fan. Consult the water cooled bearing manufacturer's instructions. If the fan is to handle a "hot gas" (i.e. a gas with a temperature greater than 150F [65C)) it is imperative that the fan be subject to only a slow gradual rate of gas temperature change, not to exceed a rate of 15F/minute (8C/minute). When the fan is being Ql.!1J!l operation the temperature of the gas must D..Q1 rise at a rate greater than 15F/minute (8C/minute). ~ subject a "cold" fan to a "hot" gas stream. When the fan is being taken out of operation the temperature of the gas must D..Q1 decline at a rate greater than 15F/minute (8C/minute), and when the gas temperature has reached a level of 150F (65C) or less it is imperative that the fan be operated at this temperature for a period of time sufficient to allow the entire fan structure to reach an equilibrium temperature of 150F (65C). Only when the entire fan structure has reached an equilibrium temperature of 150F (65C) or less can the fan be shut off and removed from operation. Failure to follow these instructions may result in damage to the fan equipment. NEVER EXCEED THE MAXIMUM OPERATING TEMPERATURE OR SPEED FOR WHICH THE FAN WAS DESIGNED. Connect the power source. Fan impeller should always be stationary prior to startup. Startup while fan impeller is rotating backwards can cause damage.

Apply power to the driver momentarily (i.e. "bump") to check for proper rotation. Any dampers or other air control devices in the system should be at least partially closed during starting periods to reduce power requirements. Damper closure is particularly important in the case of a fan designed for high temperature operation being "run in" at a temperature less than design temperature. Apply power to the driver and allow the fan to come up to design speed. Turn off. Look and listen for any unusual noise or mechanical action while the impeller is still spinning. If any are noticed, lock out all power sources, locate cause and correct. Lock out all power sources and recheck tightness of all set screws, keys, foundation bolts and any other hardware. The initial start up will tend to relieve their tightness and they may require re-tightening. Reconnect all power sources. It is recommended that upon fan installation, the operating vibration levels be checked to ensure that the levels do not exceed the levels indicated on the inspection sheets shipped with the fan and/or the vibration levels set forth in the "Vibration" section of this manual.

Once it has been determined that the fan equipment is operating satisfactorily, it should be operated, if practical, for at least eight (8) continuous hours. Operation should be monitored at least once each hour during this period. Inspection should be made for any change of operation during this period. Some bearings will have to "run in" and will heat up during this period. The maximum bearing temperature should not exceed 200F (93C). It is normal for bearings lubricated with grease to purge a small amount of the grease through the bearing seals during run-in. NOTE THAT ALL BOLTS, SETSCREWS AND V-BELTS SHOULD BE RE- TIGHTENED AFTER TWO (2) DAYS OF INITIAL OPERATION. MAINTENANCE OF FAN EQUIPMENT BEFORE STARTING MAINTENANCE WORK ON FAN EQUIPMENT LOCK MOTOR, LOCK DISCONNECT SWITCH IN THE OFF POSITION, DE-ENERGIZE AND DISCONNECT ALL POWER SOURCES TO THE MOTOR AND TO ACCESSORY DEVICES, AND SECURE FAN IMPELLER. Bearings and Lubrication Selection ofthe correct fan bearing lubricant and lubrication intervals depends on several factors. Extreme high or low temperatures and dirty or damp surroundings are all conditions that will create a requirement for more frequent lubrication or special lubricants. READ THE BEARING

------------------------------------------------------------11
MANUFACTURER'S INSTRUCTIONS TO DETERMINE THE TYPE AND FREQUENCY OF BEARING LUBRICATION REQUIRED. THE MOTOR BEARINGS SHOULD BE LUBRICATED IN ACCORDANCE WITH MOTOR MANUFACTURER'S LUBRICATION INSTRUCTIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS SHOULD BE FOLLOWED CLOSELY. Bearing failure may be caused by failure to lubricate as often as required, use of an excessive quantity of lubricant or the use of incompatible lubricants. Excessive vibration, especially if the bearing is not rotating, will also cause bearings to fail. Bearings must also be protected from water and moisture to avoid internal corrosion. Bearings are susceptible to damage from exposure to excess shaft heat transfer which may occur when a fan operating at a temperature greater than 200F (93C) is shut down without a sufficient period of gradual temperature reduction. See section (12) of "Operation of Fan Equipment" set forth on page 11 of this manual. Bearing Replacement Replacement of fan bearings should not be required for many years if cared for strictly in accordance with bearing manufacturer's instructions. The procedure used to replace fan bearings will vary depending on the type of fan and the type of bearing. It is important that the replacement of bearings be supervised or inspected by personnel experienced in such work and equipment. Trained personnel are available from CML Northern and arrangements for such supervision or inspection (at a fee) should be made through your local CML Northern representative or at CML Northern's head office. Variable Inlet Vane Once a year, the variable inlet vane coverplate should be removed and the moving parts re-packed with grease. The lubrication interval should be increased where moisture or particles are present in the airstream. CAUTION: Where automatic control mechanisms are used to operate the variable inlet vane, care should be taken to correctly adjust control mechanism stroke limits as OVERTRAVEL MAY DAMAGE THE VARIABLE INLET VANE OPERATING MECHANISM. Motors DO NOT OPERATE THE MOTOR WITHOUT FIRST READING THE MOTOR MANUFACTURER'S INSTRUCTIONS. OPERATE THE MOTOR ONLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INSTRUCTIONS. The fundamental principle of electrical maintenance is to KEEP THE MOTOR CLEAN AND DRY. This requires periodic inspection of the motor. The frequency of the inspections depends upon the type of motor, the service and the motor manufacturer's instructions.
Periodic checks of voltage, frequency and current of a motor while in operation are recommended. Such checks ensure the correctness of frequency and voltage applied to the motor and yield an indication of the fan load. Comparison of this data with previous data will give an indication of the fan performance. Any serious deviations should be investigated and corrected. Spare Parts Spare parts may be ordered through your CML Northern sales office by providing the following information: (1) Part name (e.g. impeller, shaft, motor, bearing, etc). Fan Serial Number from the nameplate. If possible, the fan shaft diameter or bearing size together with the fan class specified on the nameplate.
(2) (3)
DUE TO THE SMALL NUMBER OF PARTS REQUIRED, SPARE PARTS LISTS ARE NEITHER NECESSARY NOR AVAILABLE. Vibration A vibration analyzer must be used to accurately determine the level of fan vibration. Vibration readings should be taken by personnel experienced with vibration analysis and vibration analysis equipment. Trained personnel are available from CML Northern, and arrangements for vibration analysis (at a fee) may be made through your local CML Northern representative or at CML Northern's head office. The fan should IlQ1 be operated unless the vibration velocity of the fan is less than 0.20 inches per second. If the vibration analyzer being used to measure vibration levels will provide only vibration displacement readings refer to Figure 5. Figure 5 is a graph used to determine whether the vibration velocity of a fan is acceptable or unacceptable if the vibration analyser is capable of measuring only the vibration displacement. To utilize Figure 5 it is necessary to identify the following: (1) the vibration displacement in mils (where 1 mil is equal to 1/1 OOOthof an inch). the vibration frequency in cycles per minute (generally taken as the fan speed in rpm).
(2)
Find the vibration displacement on the left vertical axis of Figure 5, and the vibration frequency on the horizontal axis. DO NOT OPERATE THE FAN if the point of intersection of these values lies in the region labelled "UNACCEPTABLE". All points in the region labelled "UNACCEPTABLE" are indicative of vibration velocities exceeding 0.20 inches per second and corrective action must be taken to reduce the vibration velocity below this value before the fan is returned to normal operation.

Limited Warranty
1. Baldor Electric motors are warranted for a period of one (1) year, from date of shipment from the factory or factory warehouse against defects in material and workmanship. To allow for stocking and/or fabrication period and to provide one year of actual service, the warranty period is extended for an additional period of six (6) months for a total of eighteen (18) months from the original date of shipment from the factory or factory warehouse stock. In no case will the warranty period be extended for a longer period. Baldor extends this limited warranty to each buyer of the electric motor for the purpose of resale and to the original purchaser for use. Baldor will, at its option repair or replace a motor which fails due to defects in material or workmanship warranty period if: a. b. during the
2.
the purchaser presents the defective motor at or ships it prepaid to, the Baldor plant in Fort Smith, Arkansa or one of the Baldor Authorized Service Centers and the purchaser gives written notification concerning the motor and the claimed defect including the date purchased, the task performed by the Baldor motor and the problem encountered.
3. Baldor will not pay the cost of removal of any electric motor from any equipment, the cost of delivery to Fort Smith,
Arkansas or a Baldor Authorized Service Center, or the cost of any incidental or consequential damages resulting from the claimed defects. (Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above exclusion may not apply to you.) Any implied warranty given by laws shall be limited to the duration of the warranty period hereunder. (Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to you.)
4.
Baldor Authorized Service Centers, when convinced to their satisfaction that a Baldor motor developed defects in material or workmanship within the warranty period, are authorized to proceed with the required repairs to fulfill Baldor's warranty when the cost of such repairs to be paid by Baldor does not exceed Baldor's warranty repair allowance. Baldor will not pay overtime premium repair charges without prior written authorization. The cost of warranty repairs made by centers other than Baldor Authorized Service Centers WILL NOT be paid unless first authorized in writing by Baldor. Claims by a purchaser that a motor is defective even when a failure results within one hour after being placed into service are not always justified. Therefore, Baldor Authorized Service Centers must determine from the condition of the motor as delivered to the center whether or not the motor is defective. If in the opinion of a Baldor Authorized Service Center, a motor did not fail as a result of defects in material or workmanship, the center is to proceed with repairs only if the purchaser agrees to pay for such repairs. If the decision is in dispute, the purchaser should still pay for the repairs and submit the paid invoice and the Authorized Service Center's signed service report to Baldor for further consideration. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state. Note that Baldor Super-E Premium Efficiency electric motors are warranted for a period of three (3) years \ Baldor IEEE 841 electric motors are warranted for a period of five (5) years.

Location
Mounting
The motor must be securely installed to a rigid foundation or mounting surface to minimize vibration and maintain alignment between the motor and shaft load. Failure to provide a proper mounting surface may cause vibration, misalignment and bearing damage. Foundation caps and sole plates are designed to act as spacers for the equipment they support. If these devices are used, be sure that they are evenly supported by the foundation or mounting surface. After installation is complete and accurate alignment of the motor and load is accomplished, the base should be grouted to the foundation to maintain this alignment. The standard motor base is designed for horizontal or vertical mounting. Adjustable or sliding rails are designed for horizontal mounting only. Consult your Baldor distributor or authorized Baldor Service Center for further information.
Alignment
Accurate alignment of the motor with the driven equipment is extremely important. 1. Direct Coupling For direct drive, use flexible couplings if possible. Consult the drive or equipment manufacturer for more information. Mechanical vibration and roughness during operation may indicate poor alignment. Use dial indicators to check alignment. The space between coupling hubs should be maintained as recommended by the coupling manufacturer. End-Play Adjustment The axial position of the motor frame with respect to its load is also extremely important. The motor bearings are not designed for excessive external axial thrust loads. Improper adjustment will cause failure. Pulley Ratio The pulley ratio should not exceed 8: 1. Belt Drive Align sheaves carefully to minimize belt wear and axial bearing loads (see End-Play Adjustment). Belt tension should be sufficient to prevent belt slippage at rated speed and load. However, belt slippage may occur during starting. Do not over tension belts. Sleeve bearing motors are only suitable for coupled loads. ~

Be sure that all power to motor and accessories is off. Be sure the motor shaft is disconnected from the load and will not cause mechanical rotation of the motor shaft. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. Make sure that the mechanical installation is secure. All bolts and nuts are tightened etc. If motor has been in storage or idle for some time, check winding insulation integrity with a Megger. Inspect all electrical connections for proper termination, clearance, mechanical strength and electrical continuity. Be sure all shipping materials and braces (if used) are removed from motor shaft. Manually rotate the motor shaft to ensure that it rotates freely. Replace all panels and covers that were removed during installation. Momentarily apply power and check the direction of rotation of the motor shaft. If motor rotation is wrong, be sure power is off and change the motor lead connections. Verify rotation direction before you continue. Start the motor and ensure operation is smooth without excessive vibration or noise. If so, run the motor for 1 hour with no load connected.
10. After 1 hour of operation, disconnect power and connect the load to the motor shaft. Verify all coupling guards and protective devices are installed. Ensure motor is properly ventilated.
Coupled Start Up
This procedure assumes a coupled start up. Also, that the first time start up procedure was successful. 1. 2. 3. Check the coupling and ensure that all guards and protective devices are installed. Check that the coupling is properly aligned and not binding. The first coupled start up should be with no load. Apply power and verify that the load is not transmitting excessive vibration back to the motor though the coupling or the foundation. Vibration should be at an acceptable level. Run for approximately condition. 1 hour with the driven equipment in an unloaded

The equipment can now be loaded and operated within specified limits. Do not exceed the name plate ratings for amperes for steady continuous loads.
Repeated starts and/or jogs of induction motors generally reduce the life of the motor winding insulation. A much greater amount of heat is produced by each acceleration or jog than than by the same motor under full load. If it is necessary to to repeatedly start or jog the motor, it is advisable to check the application with your local Baldor distributor or Baldor Service Center. Heating - Duty rating and maximum ambient temperature are stated on the motor name plate. Do not exceed these values. If there is any question regarding safe operation, contact your local Baldor distributor or Baldor Service Center.

General Inspection
Inspect the motor at regular intervals, approximately every 500 hours of operation or every 3 months, whichever occurs first. Keep the motor clean and the ventilation openings clear. The following steps should be performed at each inspection: WARNING: Do not touch electrical connections before you first ensure that power has been disconnected. Electrical shock can cause serious or fatal injury. Only qualified personnel should attempt the installation, operation and maintenance of this equipment.
1.
Check that the motor is clean. Check that the interior and exterior of the motor is free of dirt, oil, grease, water, etc. Oily vapor, paper pulp, textile lint, etc. can accumulate and block motor ventilation. If the motor is not properly ventilated, overheating can occur and cause early motor failure. Use a "Megger" periodically to ensure that the integrity of the winding insulation has been maintained. Record the Megger readings. Immediately investigate any significant drop in insulation resistance. Check all electrical connectors to be sure that they are tight.

Bearing grease will lose its lubricating ability over time, not suddenly. The lubricating ability of a grease (over time) depends primarily on the type of grease, the size of the bearing, the speed at which the bearing operates and the severity of the operating conditions. Good results can be obtained if the following recommendations are used in your maintenance program. A high grade ball or roller bearing grease should be used. Recommended standard service conditions is Polyrex EM (Exxon Mobil). grease for

Procedure
Be sure that the grease you are adding to the motor is compatible with the grease alre<"> in the motor. Consult your Baldor distributor or an authorized service center if a qrease other than the recommended type is to be used. Caution: To avoid damage to motor bearings, grease must be kept free of dirt. For an extremely dirty environment, contact your Baldor distributor or an authorized Baldor Service Center for additional information.
With Grease Outlet Plug 1. 2. 3. Clean all grease fittings. Remove grease outlet plug. If motor is stopped, add the recommended amount of grease. If motor is to be greased while running, a slightly greater quantity of grease will have to be added. Add grease slowly until new grease appears at shaft hole in the endplate or purge outlet plug. 4. Re-install grease outlet plug.

All S-VECOlinear brushing machines incorporate some form of elevating or lifting and lowering device. Standard units are equipped with elevating screws and hand wheels. Special units are available with manual or electric lift jacks. The electronic type can be cycled with a manually operated switch or tied into a controller.
The S-VECObrushes are commonly filled with stainless steel or nylon fiber. However. many other fibers are available to suit the application. These brushes art' driven at speeds up to l,toOSFM,which helps to make these brushes the only self cleaning brushes available,
BRUSH STABILITY
3.
:iAND
These unique linear brushes of the S-VECObrushing machines are made by hand sewing each tuft into standard "S" or --0" section rubber V-belts. This sewing or hand drawing of the brush fiber is the most secure method of setting brush fiber into a core. It is the only method that can be used to minimize tuft loss or "shedding" in these ultra high speed brushes.
Idler sheaves are located at regular. intervals between the Driven and Non-Driven brush sheaves. These idlers are adjustable up or down to insure constant brush contact across the entire brush length, even when brushing a lion-level surface. Proper adjustment of the idler sheaves v.ill insure a clean product and help to eliminate brush chatter.

DEVICE
This device is a screw driven slide assembly. with either an INBOARDor OuTBOARD mounted driver, that positions the non-driven brush sheave for proper tension on the brush, This device also facilitates the process for removing and replacing the brush.
All standard units are powered with electric motors in the 2HP.to SHP.range. Power is transmitted to the brush via a drive belt. or in a direct drive method via a gear box. Motors tire sized to meet the unit size and customer application.

s- VECO
LINEAR CLEANER
Installation and Operating Instructions S-VECO Model RMHD-D Direct Drive Unit UNPACKING: Remove all components from shipping crate and set in an area where the unit can be properly supported so the various components such as motor, gearbox, and idler assemblies are protected. Make sure the unit is stable and will not tip or fall. LOCATION: The S-VECO should be located or positioned so that the particulate being removed can fall into a discharge or dribble chute if one is available. For conveyor belt cleaning, the best place to mount the unit is as close to the conveyor head pulley as possible in order to brush the belt while it is flat and stable. This insures a clean belt with no particulate transfer to snubber pulleys or return idlers. Provision should be made to deflect the removed particulate within a confined area, while providing sufficient clearance around the S-VECO to permit the material to fall clear of the machine and the conveyor belt or other object being cleaned. In conveyor applications, as well as many other applications, a primary scraper located just ahead of the S-VECO will improve cleaning efficiency by removing large lumps and by decreasing the amount of particulate that must be swept clear. INSTALLATION: next). (IMPORTANT: Complete each step before proceeding to the
PREP UNIT
Remove 3/8"-16 bolt and flat washer from bottom of elevating screw assemblies (Item 15). Screw the assemblies into the large machined steel nuts (Item 14) located on each end of the S-VECO frame (item 1) and reinstall washer and nut. Loosen the 4 nuts on the brush take-up block (Item 12) and adjust the brush take-up device (item 10 or 11) to the full relaxed or inboard position.

POSITION UNIT Position the S-VECO unit under or over conveyor or other object being cleaned. Whether your application calls for the S-VECO to be mounted under a conveyor belt or over some other object to be cleaned, care must be taken to position the unit properly in order to avoid damage to the unit. Position the S-VECO so that the brush is traveling at a right angle to the direction of the travel of the object being cleaned. Also, the object being cleaned must enter the brush at the front side of the unit. This means the conveyer belt will pass over the brush before it passes over the gearbox and motor. Failure to position the unit in this way will cause excessive pressure on the sheave bearings, which will result in bearing and shaft failure. If there is any question as to where the front side of the unit is, please refer to the drawing that accompanies these instructions. Clamp the mounting brackets (Item 16) to your existing support structure such as the conveyor frame or other machine support, l-beam, head pulley housing, etc. For best results, this position should be at a point where the conveyor belt, or other item being cleaned, is as flat and stable as possible. Conveyor belt bounce will minimize the brushes ability to clean properly and will cause premature wear or damage to the brush. The unit should be positioned so the center line of the driven sheave, the one on the motor end, is at the very edge of the conveyor belt, or other object being cleaned. The S-VECO unit should be positioned so that the brush is centered over or under the object being cleaned. IMPORTANT: When installing the unit, be sure there is at least 4" of clearance between the O.D. of the sheaves and the surface to be cleaned. NOTE: You must also be sure that you have enough elevating screw travel to provide sufficient adjustment to compensate for brush wear. EXAMPLE: If your brushes have a 3-112" trim (bristle length), you need to provide 3" of travel or adjustment. If the selected mounting location does not allow you to achieve the desired elevating screw travel, put a spacer between the mounting brackets and the mounting support structure.
INSTALL BRUSH Install the S- VECO brush or brushes, (depending on whether your model requires one 3 banded brush or 3 single band brushes, on sheaves (Items 7 & 8) and idlers (Item 9). If difficulty is encountered while installing the brushes, check brush take-up block position as in step 2 of "Prep Unit". After the brushes have been installed, tighten brush, utilizing the brush take-up device (Item 10 or 11). This device has a factory set torque load. When proper torque is achieved the clutch will break free preventing over tensioning of the brushes. (See yellow caution sheet included with this packet).

Turn the brush take-up device in a clock-wise direction until the handle spins free. At this point you will have reached the proper torque on the brushes. Tighten the four nuts on the take-up block. (Item 12) NOTE: After the first week or two of running the brushes might need to be re-tightened due to belt stretch. Before turning the brush tightening device handle be sure to loosen the four nuts at the back of the brush take-up block (Item 12), then tighten brushes and re-tighten the four nuts.
FINAL MOUNTNG ADJUSTMENTS 1. Turn elevating screws (Item 15) to bring both ends of brushes into slight contact with surface to be cleaned. (Maximum 1/8" bristle deflection). NOTE: It may be necessary to re-center the unit on the conveyor at this time (Refer back to "Position Unit"). Check alignment of idler support bracket attaching screws and raising or lowering brackets as necessary, then tighten attaching screws. 2. Re-check centering of S-VECO brush to conveyor or other object being cleaned and if correct, weld mounting brackets (ItemI6) in position. Mounting brackets can be bolted instead of welded in place if you prefer. Use two 1/2" bolts per bracket. CAUTION: DO NOT allow weld splatter to damage brush. 3. Adjust elevating screws (Item 15) until full brush contact is made with item being cleaned, and the bristles bow or crush approximately 1/8". This adjustment provides maximum cleaning efficiency and assures maximum brush life. Excessive bristle pressure WILL NOT increase efficiency or cleaning, but WILL increase brush wear. 4. Install brush pinch guard using hardware supplied.
POWER
Wire the S- VECO drive motor (Item 2) into conveyor drive circuit making sure that voltage is correct. CAUTION, the S-VECO unit must operate ONLY when the conveyor belt is moving to prevent damage to the conveyor belt. A manual disconnect switch is recommended to permit servicing of the S-VECO. USE FLEX CONDUIT TO MOTOR TO PERMIT ADmSTMENT FOR BRUSH WEAR.
NOTE: If the conveyor has a long "coast to stop" time, it is recommended that the SVECO continue to run during this time to prevent clogging of the brush, and roll-out

STARTUP Re-check to be certain that the S-VECO motor is wired into the conveyor drive circuit, then start conveyor and S-VECO unit, check for proper brush adjustment and adjust elevating screws (Item 15) as necessary. NOTE: The rotation of the brush is optional.
ADJUSTMENTS 1. After initial break-in time it may be necessary to adjust the S-VECO brushes for proper tension on the sheaves, loosen the pinch point guard attaching screws and the 4 take-up block nuts (on Item 12). Adjust brush as needed and re-tighten all screws and nuts. 2. Adjustment for bristle wear is accomplished by turning elevating screws (Item 15). See step 3 under FINAL MOUNfING ADJUSTMENTS. Intervals between adjustments will vary with each application. It is suggested that the brush be checked daily for the first two weeks of operation to determine the interval. The appearance of the particulate on the object being cleaned, at any time, usually indicates the need for adjustment. The brushes should be replaced when the bristles have been worn down to 3/4", or when satisfactory cleaning can no longer be obtained. 3. Idler sheave adjustment, either up or down, see step 1 under" FINAL MOUNfING ADJUSTMENTS". Main sheave adjustments are performed at the factory before the unit is shipped. Be sure that the attaching screws on the take-up block (Item 12) are tight at all times to maintain alignment and clearance.

INSTALLATION AND REMOVAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR BLOOM LOCKING ASSEMBLY SERIES 8106 & 8103
Thank you for purchasing a B-LOCTM Keyless Frictional Locking Device. ~-LOCTt. keyless connectors provide a high capacity, zero-backlash afVhub or coupling connection by means of a mechanical interference '. . Please follow these INSTALLATION AND REMOVAL INSTRUCTiONS carefully to ensure proper performance of this B-LOCTM unit.
1. 8e sure that all power switches are locked out before installing or removing B-LOC'M products. 2. Eye protection is required when installing or removing B-LOC'M products . please wear safety glasses and protective clothing. INSTALLATION (Refer to Figure 1) B-LOCTASeries 8103 and 8106 Locking Assemblies are supplied lightly oiled and ready for installation. They are seIf-centering and fit straight-thru hub bores. Note that Series 8103 units permit axial hub movement during installation. In contrast. the extended flange on Series 8106 units results in an axially fixed hub position during assembly. When reinstalling a used unit, make sure that all slits are aligned. The frictional torque capacity of these devioes is based on a coefficient of friction of 0.12 for lightly oiled screw. taper. shaft and bore contact areas.
Figure 1
Therefore, it is important notto use Molybdenum Disulfide (e.g., Molykote, NeverSeeze or similar lubricants) in any Locking Assembly installation. 1. Make sure that locking screw. taper, shaft and bore contact areas are clean and lightly oiled and that all collar slits are aligned. Loosen all locking screws by a minimum of four (4) turns and transfer at least three (3) screws into push-off threads in order to keep Parts 1 and 2 separated during assembly (see Figure 2). After inserting Locking Assembly into hub bore. relocate locking screws used for separating Parts 1 and 2. Hand tighten locking screws and confirm that collar item 1 is parallel and in full contact with face of part to be attached to shaft. Use torque wrench and set it approximately 5% higher than specified tightening torque MA Tighten locking screws in either a clockwise or counterclockwise sequence (it is not necessary to tighten in a diametrically pposite pattern). using only 1/4 (i.e., 90") turns for several passes until 1/ , turns can no longer be achieved. Continue to apply overtorque for 1 to 2 more passes. This is required to compensate for a system-related relaxation of locking screws since tightening of a given screw will always relax adjacent screws. Without overtorquing. an infinite number of passes would be needed to reach specified tightening torque. 26 Gilbert Street Monroe, NY 10950

Reset torque wrench to specified torque (MA) and check all locking screws. No screw should tum at this point, otherwise repeat Step 6 for 1 or 2 more passes. It is not necessary to re-check tightening torque after equipment has been in operation.
'OTE: The torque capacity of these units can be increased by approximately 25% by ttooroughlycleaning the shaft and Locking Assemb1y bore of any lubricant. In applications subject to extreme corrosion, the slits in all collars should be sealed with a suitable caulling compund or equivalent. Likewise, push-off threads should be protected from corrosion. INSTALLATION OF B-LOC"" LOCKING ASSEMBLIES OVER SHAFT KEYWAYS The Locking Assembly should be positioned so that slits in Locking Assembly collars that contact the shaft are located approximately opposite the keyway. In addition, a locking screw should be centered directly over the keyway. When tigptening locking screws, it is important to foltow the installation procedure outlined above, which specifies equal 1/4 turns of each locking screw. Failure to follow these instructions could result in excessive tightening of the screw over the keyway, possibly causing permanent deformation of the Locking Assembly collars. Even after 1/4 turns can no longer be achieved, it is important to continue to use equal turning angles for every screw until the specified tightening torque is reached.
REMOVAL (Refer to Figure 2) Prior to initiating the following removal procedure, check to ensure that no torque or thrust loads are actl"g on the Locking Assembly, shaft or any mounted components. IMPORTANT! Make sure ends of locking screws used for removal are ground flat and are slightly chamfered to prevent damage to screw and COllarthreads during push-off. Check to ensure that axial movement of collars - necessary for release of connection - is not restricted. Likewise, ensure that push-off threads are in good condition. 2. Relax all locking screws by approx. four (4) complete turns and transfer screws to all pushoff threads located in flange of collar Item 1. Release connection by evenly tightening all push-off screws (not exceeding 1/4 turns) in a diametrically opposite sequence.

Motor - Check electrical wiring to motor. The current characteristics of the supply line must agree with the motor nameplate ratings. Motor should be wired in accordance with all national and local electric codes. All motors are ULlCSA certified. Typical wiring is Delta Run. Duct/Flex Hose Connection - Hard line duct should never be supported by fan only. Rigid/Spiral hard line duct connections should be sealed to prevent air leaks. To minimize sound resonating through duct, connect rigid duct to blower inlet/outlet by means of flex hose/rubber connection. There should be a minimum of three duct diameters of straight duct prior to any elbows or transitions into or from the blower inlet and outlet. Install blower inlet duct, inlet guard or filter. TO ENSURE PERSONNEL OR PROPERTY PROTECTION, DO NOT OPERATE BLOWER WITHOUT AN INLET GUARD.
ELECTRICAL DISCONNECTS
Every motor driven fan should have an independent disconnect switch to isolate the unit from electrical supply. It should be near the fan and must be capable of being locked out during maintenance and servicing.

NOTES:
Check amperage draw of system to motor rating (see motor plate F.L.A.) when distribution plenum, duct, Air Cannons and/or Air Knives have been installed and connected. Opening dampers and/or opening Air Knife slots will increase the impact of the nozzles, but will increase the amperage used by the blower's motor. Adding additional Air Knives and Air Cannons will also increase the amperage used by the blower's motor. MAINTENANCE 1) Weekly, check inlet guards and/or filters for any signs of restriction due to such things as dirt. In most cases, 3 drop in amperes will be noticed as the restrictions increase. Weekly, check the condition ot any hose and replace any that have holes or are worn. Lubricate larger motors with grease at least every 3000 hours of use - more often if in harsh environments.

AIR PRESSURE AND SUCTION In addition to the normal dangers of rotating machinery, fans present another hazard from the suction created at the fan/silencer inlet. This suction can draw materials into the fan chamber where they become high velocity projectiles at fan, air knife or air cannon outlets. Fan inlets, even if they are ducked, require inlet guards of some type or proper filters to prevent entry and discharge of solid objects.

CAUTION: Equipment Failure Caution Belt tensioning by feel is NOT acceptable. Tensioning by "feel" can ~ be very misleading, and can damage motor and equipment. It is normal for V-belts to squeal initially when line starting a motor.
In general, belt tensions should be kept as loose as possible while still transmitting the required torque without slipping. Belt tensions must be measured with a belt tension gage. These inexpensive gages may be obtained through belt manufacturers, or distributors. Shaft RPM x 3.14 x Sheave Dia (inches) BELT SPEED (Ftlmin) =-----------12 Proper belt tension is determined by measuring the force required to deflect the center of the belt a given distance. The proper deflection (in inches) is determined by dividing the belt span in inches by 64. Calculate the proper deflection and then see Table 3-3 for the required "Deflected Force" to achieve that deflection. After tensioning the belt, rotate the sheaves for several rotations or operate the system for a few minutes to seat belts into the grooves, then re-tension the belts. New belts will stretch during use, and should be retensioned after the first eight hours of use.
3.~.4.2
Number of Belts In general, use the fewest number of belts that will transmit the required torque without slipping. See Table 3-3 for recommended maximum number of belts. Each belt adds to the tension in the system, which increases load on the shafts and bearings. Belts are most efficient when operated at or near their rated horsepower. If the sheaves have more grooves than the number of belts required, use the grooves closest to the motor.

General Information: When thermal protection is provided, one of the following will be stamped on the nameplate: 1. "THERMALLY PROTECTED" This motor has built in thermal protection. Thermal protectors open the motor circuit electrically when the motor overheats or is overloaded. The ~ protector cannot be reset until the motor cools. If the protector is automatic, it will reset itself. If the protector is manual, disconnect motor from power supply. After protector cools (five minutes or more) press the reset button and reapply power to the motor. In some cases a motor is marked "Auto" and the connection diagram on the motor will identify T'Stat leads - see "2 "below. (See warnings on Manual and Automatic reset protectors - section 1.1) 2. "WITH OVERHEAT PROTECTIVE DEVICE": This motor is provided with an overheat protective device that does not directly open the motor circuit. Motors nameplated with this phrase have either thermostats, thermisters or RTD's. The leads to these devices are routed into the motor conduit box or into an auxiliary box. The lead markings are defined on the nameplate (normally "P1", "P2") . The circuit controlled by the overheat protection device must be limited to a maximum of 600 volts and 360 volt-amps. See connection decal provided inside the terminal box cover. Failure to connect these over temperature devices (when provided) will void the warranty. WARNING: EXPLOSION HAZARD For Hazardous Locations motors provided with thermostats UL and the NEC require connection of thermostat leads into the control portion of a manual reset start circuit. Failure to follow this instruction could result in serious personal injury, death and/or property damage Resistance Temperature Detectors (RTD): When winding and/or bearing RTDs are provided the RTD lead markings are defined on the nameplate. (Normally "R1", "R2", "R3" etc.) 3.3.6.5 RTD Alarm & Trip Settings: ~ Tables 3-6 & 3-7 are suggested initial RTD alarm and trip settings. For motors found to operate significantly below these values the settings may be reduced accordingly. Table 40C Motor 3-6 Winding Class Rise:s; Alarm Up to 1.0 SF >1.0 to 1.15 SF 130 140 RTD Temperature Limit
3.3.5.3 VFD Grounding: Equipment grounding conductors may be run in the same conduit as the AC motor power leads. This wire must be used as the equipment ground for the motor and not as the fourth current carrying wire of a "WYE" motor circuit. The grounded metal conduit carrying the output power conductors can provide EMI shielding, but the conduit does not provide an adequate ground for the motor; a separate grounding conductor must be used. Grounding the motor neutral (WYE) of a VFD powered motor may result in a VFD ground fault trip. Improper grounding of an inverter fed motor may result in frame voltages in excess of 500 Volts. Refer to Grounding section 3.4.4 3.3.5.4 VFD - Single Phase: CAUTION: SINGLE PHASE MOTOR FAILURE: Single Phase motors are NOT suitable for use on VFD power. Connecting a Single Phase Motor to a VFD voids the warranty. 3.3.5.5 Stray Voltage on Accessory Leads: VFD's will couple stray (common-mode) voltage to motormounted RTDs, thermistors, thermostats and space heaters. The leads of these elements must be properly insulated and control input circuits must be designed to withstand this common-mode voltage. 3.3.6 ACCESSORIES
