Introduction
Introduction
This chapter describes how to safely operate the Contherm
™
Scraped Surface Heat Exchanger (SSHE) and its related
equipment. It is assumed that you have read the Safety Summary in Chapter 2 and have installed the Contherm
™
and all related
equipment in accordance with the procedures provided in Chapter Six, Installation.
WARNING
1. Do not operate the Contherm
™
or handle equipment and parts until you have read
this manual, have installed the Contherm
™
, motors and the hydraulic lift system (if
applicable) in accordance with the procedures provided in Chapter 6, Installation.
Ensure operators are knowledgeable of all related equipment and safety precautions.
2. If hydraulic lift system is not operating properly, go directly to the troubleshooting
guide to correct the problem. This is a safety issue.
3. Contact Alfa Laval if on-site operation and maintenance training is desired
4. Before attempting to operate the Contherm
™
beyond what is specified in your order
documentation, contact Alfa Laval to ensure you do not exceed the equipment’s
limitations.
WARNING
1. It is the user’s responsibility to inspect the machinery and continuously monitor
during operation for mechanical malfunctions or hazards as well as product
contamination. Ensure no external contaminants are allowed to come in contact
with the product. Ensure rotating equipment is spinning concentrically with little to
no vibration, that all equipment is properly and tightly fastened and guarded. If
any of these conditions are compromised, the user should postpone production
until issues can be properly addressed for safety to both users and product being
processed. Consult with the factory service technicians if something seems wrong.
2. Never attempt to remove any clamp connections or Contherm
™
product head
clamp while unit is in operation, while the unit is pressurized, or while the unit
contains fluid.
7.2
Operating the Hydraulic Rotor Lifting System
Refer to Chapter six, Installation, for detailed information describing the installation of the components of the Rotor Lifting System.
WARNING
1. Only one operator must safely adjust and align the lower product head with one
hand while manipulating the stack valve handle with his or her other hand. More
than one operator of the hydraulics and equipment alignment increases the risk of
creating a pinch point and injury between the lower product head and the cylinder.
CAUTION
2. The hydraulic lift pump should not be energized when not in use to ensure the
longest life of the electric pump.
To operate the Rotor Lifting System, perform the procedure provided in Table 7-4. The major components of the Rotor Lifting
System are identified and shown in Figure 7-1. Refer to this figure for component location information while performing the
following procedure.
