Final Adjustment
ROW ALIGNMENT: After the inlet rows are all connected to the power unit, adjust the turnbuckle(s) so
that all of the inlet rows reach the fully open position and the fully closed position at the same point. The
following description defines the open and closed position of the carriage wheels on the ramps.
FULLY OPEN:
Carriage wheels resting against the Ramp Support Hanger. At this point the bottom limit
switch on the Tower Switch(es) should be activated.
FULLY CLOSED:
The center of the carriage wheels are 3.5 inches (8.9 cm) from the edge of the Ramp
Hanger as shown above. At this point the top limit switch on the Tower Limit Switch should be activated.
RAMP ADJUSTMENT:
Use the winch to pull the system up until the carriage wheels are in the ‘closed’
position on the ramps. The ramps should be adjusted so that the seals just touch the deflector boards all
along the inlet row. If necessary loosen the screws holding on the H-Channels and adjust to form a tight
seal along the entire Inlet.
Controlling the Inlets
The TURBO-HOUSE Inlets may be controlled by the Chore-Time Automatic Static Pressure Inlet
Control. The pressure setting on the Inlet Control should be set to operate at 0.05" static pressure. The
pressure sensor bottle(s) for the Inlet Control should be located so that the control senses the pressure drop
across the inlet ONLY. The bottle(s) should be located in the bird area and the attic area (inside the
building) to measure the required pressure drop.
Note: The fans will operate at a higher static pressure that the Inlet Control will read. The Inlet Control
must measure the pressure differential across the inlet ONLY.
Wire the system according to the wiring diagrams in the Control instructions and the Linear Lift
™
Instructions.
Connect the Cable to the front
of the End Connector with
Cable Clamps as shown.
