Media System Check
DANGER: Refrigeration controls should be
operated and serviced only by trained and qualified
personnel.
Each cylinder is tested for leaks at the factory. However,
vibrations and handling during shipping can loosen piping
connections. Before starting a new unit, the system should
be checked for media leaks at the Votator II cylinder, the
media connections, and the piping to the cylinder using the
following procedures:
On units jacketed for steam or liquids, follow steps 1
through 6, and then drain condensate from cylinder.
On units jacketed for refrigeration, follow steps 1 through
6, and then pump down to remove refrigerant.
1. If a media pressure gauge is not installed in system,
install one at the media inlet of cylinder before
processing.
2. Close off media return line from unit.
3. Open media inlet valve and let pressure increase to 5
psig, then close valve.
4. Check front, back, and all piping connections for
leaks.
5. If leaks are not detected, open inlet valve and let
system pressurize to 40 to 50 psig, then close valve.
6. Check again for leaks at front, back, and all piping
connections.
Special Considerations for Vertical
Votator II
The customer is responsible for securing the top and
bottom of the pole and scrape assembly. See "Votator II
Vertical Mounting Suggestions" in Addendum Section.
Minimum Height - Vertical Votator II
The mounting pole with hydraulic components is
assembled at the factory to provide the proper height from
the floor when installed. Therefore, never trim the pole
from the bottom. Check to be sure the cylinders will be
positioned with minimum clearance to insure shaft can be
removed correctly. See “Clearances” on page 11.
Mounting Pole - Vertical Votator II
Attach post mount to floor. (Stainless steel disk which
serves as base for pole.) There is a 13/16" diameter hole
through the center of the disk for mounting it to the floor.
Make sure post mount is level after installation.
Prepare site for attaching top of pole. Top of pole can be
trimmed if needed.
NOTE:
When installing pole, make sure hydraulic
cylinder faces toward same side scrape cylinders will be
mounted on.
Put bottom of pole over post mount and raise.
Attach top of pole to top mounting.
NOTE:
Pole MUST be vertical and plumb.
Mounting Scrape Cylinders - Vertical
Votator II
Using a crane or other lift device, lift cylinder from
pedestal (drive) end. Lifting in any other manner may
damage cylinder.
Secure scrape cylinders in place with four (4) stainless
steel 5/8-inch bolts and lock washers provided. Maintain
minimum distance between protective cap and floor. See
“Clearances” on page 11.
