EP8HL HAZARDOUS BLOWER
FORM GOM7069501, VERSION 1.2
30
6) The blower wheel is factory balanced at the time of
manufacture and should not require rebalancing under
normal usage. Proper balance is essential to minimize
wheel vibration and maximize air flow delivery.
Periodically, apply a light coat of dry film lubricant to
prevent the formation of rust on the wheel.
IF THE BLOWER IS OPERATED IN A CORROSIVE
ATMOSPHERE, REMOVE THE FRONT BLOWER
HOUSING AS ABOVE, CLEAN AND REMOVE ANY
CORROSIVE MATERIAL FROM THE WHEEL AND
HOUSING. UTILIZE APPROPRIATE SAFETY
APPAREL AND RELATED EQUIPMENT TO
REMOVE THE CORROSIVE MATERIAL. DISPOSE
OF
ALL HAZARDOUS MATERIALS BY
ACCEPTABLE PRACTICES AND/OR METHODS.
DO NOT PAINT OR ALTER THE BLOWER WHEEL
CONFIGURATION IN ANY MANNER. THE RESULT
WILL BE AN UNBALANCED WHEEL CONDITION.
AN UNBALANCED WHEEL ROTATING AT HIGH
SPEED CAN RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE
AND/OR PERSONAL INJURY.
ELECTRIC MOTOR MAINTENANCE.
The electric motor is capable of operating for many
years with a reasonably small amount of maintenance.
Before attempting to service the motor, disconnect the
Blower from the power supply. Remove the top cover.
Clean the motor surfaces periodically, preferably with a
vacuum cleaner. Heavy accumulations of dirt and lint
will result in overheating and premature failure of the
motor. The electric motor is equipped with ball bearings
and under normal service and ambient temperatures,
should not require relubrication for many years. If you
feel that the motor requires relubrication, contact the
local service representative of the motor manufacturer
for specific information.
STATICALLY CONDUCTIVE DUCT MAINTENANCE .
Special air ducts are fabricated from a statically
conductive material to dissipate static electrical
charges through the ground wire of the power source
cord. Available in industry standard lengths, each duct
incorporates a captive cuff assembly that provides a
positive ground connection to the Blower when
properly installed. In addition, a separate static ground
strap for direct clamping to the Blower is provided for
static dissipation redundancy. A duct repair kit, Part
Number EP8HL-1200, is available to facilitate field
repairs to the duct material. This kit includes
replacement patching material, a special statically
conductive adhesive, a Material Safety Data Sheet
and complete instructions. To maintain the static
conductive properties, ducts can be field repaired only
with this factory approved kit.
FIELD REPAIR A STATICALLY CONDUCTIVE DUCT
WITH A FACTORY APPROVED REPAIR KIT ONLY.
USE OF "DUCT" TAPE OR OTHER, NON
CONDUCTIVE REPAIR MATERIALS WILL NOT
PROPERLY DISSIPATE A STATIC ELECTRICAL
CHARGE. SUCH AN OCCURRENCE CAN CREATE
A RANDOM SPARK THAT CAN BE THE IGNITION
SOURCE OF AN EXPLOSION, RESULTING IN
PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/OR PERSONAL INJURY.
Duct storage canisters feature spark proof construction
for added safety in hazardous location type confined
work spaces. Heavy gauge, welded aluminum
construction and a full, hinged cover provide positive
protection against damage during storage or transit.
DO NOT UTILIZE ANY DUCT STORAGE
ACCESSORY IN A HAZARDOUS LOCATION TYPE
ATMOSPHERE THAT DOES NOT MEET THE
SPARK PROOF DESIGN CONSIDERATION. A
DIRECT BLOW AGAINST A NON SPARK PROOF
STORAGE ACCESSORY CAN CREATE A RANDOM
SPARK THAT CAN BE THE IGNITION SOURCE OF
AN EXPLOSION. SUCH AN OCCURRENCE CAN
RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/OR
PERSONAL INJURY.
