 Drive Alignment

WARNING: 

Check to ensure the 

controls for the fan motor are 
set to allow a maximum of six 
on-off cycles per hour to prevent 
motor overload.

Alignment

•   Check the drive alignment annually to ensure maximum belt life.
•   Drive alignment check and adjustment:

 

Place a straight edge across the driver and the driven sheaves as 
shown in 

Figure 5

.

 

The straight edge should contact all four points as shown in 

Figure 5

 indicating that the drives are properly aligned.

 

There should be no more than 1.5mm deviation from four points 
of contact.

 

In case of realignment, loosen the motor sheave and align it with 
the fan sheave. Allow 6mm for draw-up as the bushing screw is 
retightened.

Fan Drive System (Direct Drive Units)

Drive Train 

The standard fan motor used 
on direct driven units is a 
TEAO (Totally Enclosed Air 
Over) motor. The motor has 
permanently lubricated ball 
bearings and special moisture 
protection on the bearings, 
shaft, and windings. The only 
servicing required during 
operation is to clean the outside 
surface of the motor at least 
quarterly to ensure proper 
motor cooling. After prolonged 
shutdowns, the motor insulation 
should be checked with a 
“megger” insulation tester 
before restarting the motor.
