4.3.5 Important instructions
CAUTION: Danger of imbalance!
When the bowl has not been correctly assembled or is inadequately cleaned,
forces can be produced in the high-speed rotating bowl which endanger the op-
erating safety of the separator!
Therefore, the cleaning instructions (section 4.3.2) and assembling instructions
(section 4.3.6) must be exactly followed.
Pay particular attention to the following :
•
Before assembling the bowl, check to be sure that the guide and contact sur-
faces of the bowl are clean.
•
Grease the guide surfaces as specified in the lubrication schedule (see 4.2.4).
Fig. 123
•
When fitting the bowl parts, make
sure that the "O" marks on all parts
are aligned.
(Only then will the parts fit correctly
over arresting pins and guide ribs).
•
Avoid damaging bowl parts when fitting and removing by
– precise positioning,
– no diagonal pull!
– Select the low lifting speed of the hoist.
•
Use only suitably rated, intact hoists.
•
Do not use force when fitting or removing parts.

•
If the plant has several separators,
be sure not to interchange parts of
different bowls
(danger of imbal-
ance).
The parts are marked
– with the serial number or
– the last three digits of the serial
number.
