Publication T30-906 
Issued January 8, 2016

 

 

2.1.1 Exhaust Housing Orientation 

 
If this unit has an optional exhaust housing   
remove the seven (if a 90

 elbow) or eight (if 

a straight exhaust) socket head cap screws  
connecting the exhaust to the turbine 
assembly.  Rotate the exhaust housing to 
the desired position relative to the inlet port.   
 
Reinstall the seven or eight socket head cap 
screws.  

Torque to 61 Lbs.-In.

  

(6.89 Nm)

   

 

CAUTION 

Ensure the O-ring on the exhaust housing 
remains in position and is not cut.

 

 

3.0 INSTALLING THE MOTOR 

 
The T30ML air motor is configured with a 
footed section on the gearbox housing for 
installing onto the engine or appropriate 
mounting bracket. The air motor and 
optional 7 or 30 GPM oil pump if attached to 
motor should be mounted in a horizontal 
position as shown. 
 

 

 
The piping illustrated may vary in shape, but 
there must at least be a start initiation 
switch, air supply, and a motor relay valve to 
correctly install and operate a T30 Series 
motor. 

 
 

 

NOTE 

Installing the air piloted relay valve on the 
motor is preferred in installations where the 
space is available.

 

 
TDI recommends mounting the air piloted 
relay valve no more than 3 meters (10 feet) 
from the motor’s inlet port, and as close to 
the motor as possible.  If the motor is being 
installed on a vehicle where the air tank is 
within 3 meters (10 feet) of the motor, then 
the relay valve may be mounted on the tank.   
 
A turbine driven motor does not require 
lubrication in the supply air. Therefore, if a 
vane-type motor is being replaced, TDI 
recommends that all lubrication devices and 
lines be removed to minimize flow 
restrictions. 
 

WARNING

 

If a fuel (pulse) lubricator is installed in the 
system, disconnect and plug the line to 
eliminate spraying diesel fuel on the 
engine. 

 
After mounting the motor to the engine, 
attach the supply air line from the tank 
including any control air lines, air piloted 
relay valve and solenoids. 
 
TDI recommends installation of a “Glad 
Hand” / quick disconnect for auxiliary 
pressurization of the air tank. 
 
Because turbine motors are sensitive to flow 
restrictions, care must be taken to use 
uniform sized hose or tubing and fittings for 
connection of the supply air line.  Tees, 
elbows, and line length must be kept to a 
minimum.   
 
TDI recommends that hose or flex couplings 
be installed to eliminate possible leakage 
caused by strain on the supply air line. 

 

Normally an air strainer is not required.  In 
dirty environments, use of a #40 mesh  
Y-strainer is recommended.
