Introduction
Italvibras USA stainless steel industrial electric vibrators have been designed and manufactured
in accordance with the most exacting international industrial standards and requirements.
Italvibras USA industrial electric vibrators are constructed of AISI 316L stainless steel. They
are designed for long life at continuous duty and maximum force output. The electric vibrators
are suitable for operation in ambient from -30°C to 40°C (operation outside of this range needs
engineering consideration).
Italvibras USA industrial electric vibrators have been evaluated for installation throughout the
world. Standard ratings include CSA (Canadian Standards Association) Approval, the CE
(European Directive) Mark, EX Approval for Zone 21 (ATEX II2D tD A21 IP66) and Russian
GOST Mark. Check the electric vibrator nameplate for the exact ratings and Approvals for the
specific Model.
The electric vibrator can be referred to by its Model or Type designation or by its Item number.
The vibrator Model or Type designations referred to in this manual are as follows:
MVSS – Continuous duty stainless steel industrial electric vibrator, single or three phase.
General Safety requirements
Read this entire manual before proceeding. Compliance with all company, local and OSHA
regulations is essential. Any electrical work must be done in accordance with all applicable
local and national codes and must be performed only by qualified, licensed and authorized
personnel. Always follow lockout and tag out procedures and requirements and always wear
ear protection when in close proximity to operating vibratory equipment.
Comprehensive adherence to these documents at a minimum is required – The National
Electrical Code NFPA 70, ANSI z244.1 the American National Standard for Personnel Protection
– Lockout/Tag out of Energy Sources – Minimum Safety Requirements, CFR 29 Part 1910 –
Control of Hazardous Energy Sources (Lockout/Tag out) Final Rule and CFR 29 Part 1910.15
Occupational Noise Exposure.
Storage
S
torage of the electric vibrator should be in an ambient not less than 5°C with a relative
humidity not more than 60%. If the vibrator has been stored for longer than two years, the
vibrator should be evaluated by authorized and trained personnel to ensure that the grease is
intact, that there is no bearing damage such as brinelling and that the ground insulation is
sound and not damaged from condensation.
