have been made to the grinder.
Warning / Control device
Prior to operating the grinder, if any warning or control devices are fitted, these must be set in
accordance with their specific instructions.
Sulzer is not liable if local or international regulations are not followed or for damage
caused by wiring errors or improper shielding. Use lifting equipment rated for the weight
of the grinder minimum attached to all the grinder top cover lifting rings as shown to lift
the grinder. Verify the grinder flow arrows, located on the side of the grinder, point in the
direction of flow.
Start-up procedure
By the nature of the equipment and its operating environment the grinder can be
an extremely dangerous machine. It is vital that operators are conversant with
these installation and operating instructions prior to working with the machine.
Verify there is no unauthorized personnel or materials near the grinder.
Use a control panel rated for the grinder motor voltage, amps, frequency with a suitable power
disconnect and overtemp protection if the motor has a thermostat.
Apply power to grinder with the control panel control switch.
Check for proper motor or shaft rotation. Disconnect power and interchange any two motor leads if
reversed. Gradually apply flow. Verify reduction of solids.
Where applicable:
1. Check all installation hardware once the machine is installed in its
correct operating position.
2. Check all electrical connections for continuity and earthing and that
installation is in accordance with relevant regulations and circuit
diagrams.
3. Always ensure that the machine is guarded in accordance with local
health and safety requirements.
