imbalance greatly speeds bearing wear, thus reducing blower life. Disassembling the blower will
void warranty, so contact the factory for cleaning authorization.
3.
Support the Piping
- The blower flanges and nozzles are designed as connection points only and
are not designed to be support members.
Caution: Plastic piping should not be used on blowers larger than 1 HP that are operating near
their maximum pressure or suction point. Blower housing and nearby piping
temperatures can exceed 200ºF. Access by personnel to the blower or nearby piping
should be limited, guarded, or marked, to prevent danger of burns.
4.
Wiring
- Blowers must be wired and protected/fused in accordance with local and national
electrical codes. All blowers must be grounded to prevent electrical shock. Slo-Blo or time delay
fuses should be used to bypass the first second of start-up amperage.
5.
Pressure/Suction Maximums
- The maximum pressure and/or suction listed on the model label
should not be exceeded. This can be monitored by means of a pressure or suction gage (available
from Rotron), installed in the piping at the blower outlet or inlet. Also, if problems do arise, the
Rotron Field representative will need to know the operating pressure/suction to properly diagnose
the problem.
6.
Excess Air
- Bleed excess air off. DO NOT throttle to reduce flow. When bleeding off excess air,
the blower draws less power and runs cooler.
Note:
Remote Drive (Motorless) Blowers - Properly designed and installed guards should be used
on all belts, pulleys, couplings, etc. Observe maximum remote drive speed allowable. Due to the
range of uses, drive guards are the responsibility of the customer or user. Belts should be
tensioned using belt gauge.
Maintenance Procedure
When properly piped, filtered, and applied, little or no routine maintenance is required. Keep
the filter clean. Also, all standard models in the DR, EN, CP, and HiE series have sealed
bearings that require no maintenance. Bearing should be changed after 15,000 to 20,000
hours, on average. Replacement bearing information is specified on the chart below.
