WARNING 

 

PIPING & WIRING

Concern/Alarm

Possible Consequences

Connect the power supply cable correctly. 

(see page 13) 

If the power supply is installed incorrectly, 

electric shock or fire to the machinery can 

occur. 

Do not bend or pull the power supply cable or 

lead wires of the Vortex Blower. 

Bending or pulling wires can lead to electric 

shock or fire to the machinery. 

Do not put any the power supply cable or lead 

wires between machinery. 

Installing the power supply cable or lead 

wires between machinery can lead to electric 

shock or fire to the machinery. 

Do not touch the terminals during 

measurement of the insulation resistance. 

Touching the terminals can lead to electric 

shock. 

Properly trained personnel should wire the 

Vortex Blower in accordance with electrical 

equipment standards. 

Failure to wire in accordance with the 

standards and/or utilizing improperly trainer 

personnel can lead to burn out of the motor or 

fire to the machinery. 

Installation of an overload protector is 
approved in accordance with electrical 

equipment standards (overload protector is not 

included on theVortex Blower).    Install the 

overload protector in the power supply circuit 

of the Vortex Blower (see page 13). 

Failure to install an overload protector can 

lead todamage to the Vortex Blower, burn out 

of the motor or fire to the machinery. 

Install a ground connection prior to using the Vortex 

Blower. Properly ground (Class 3 ground) the 

equipment. 

Installing a ground connection properly will 

prevent accidents due to current leakage caused by 

electric insulation deterioration. 

Install an independent earth leakage (ground) 

circuit breaker prior to using the Vortex 

Blower. 

Installing an earth leakage (ground) circuit 

breaker will prevent accidents due to current 

leakage caused by electric insulation 

deterioration. 

Install an independent electromagnetic switch 

in the power supply ciruit as protection for the 

Vortex Blower. 

Failure to install an electromagnetic switch 

can lead to damage to the Vortex Blower, 

burn out of the motor or fire to the machinery.

Do not allow the Vortex Blower to inhale any 

type of water. 

Inhaling water can lead to current leaks, 

electric shocks, rusting or bearing damage. 

 

OPERATION 

Concern/Alarm

Possible Consequences

Do not operate the Vortex Blower while the 

terminal box cover is removed. 

Operating while the terminal box cover is 

removed can lead to electric shock. 

After servicing the Vortex Blower, verify that 

the terminal box cover is properly mounted to 

the case. 

Failure to properly mount the terminal box 

cover can lead to electric shock. 

During operation, do not approach or touch 

any of the rotating parts of the Vortex Blower.

Touching any of the rotating parts during 

operation can lead to personal injury. 

If a power loss occurs, turn off the power 

supply. 

Turning off the power supply prevents 

personal injury. 

Do not touch the Vortex Blower during 

operation, as excessive heat is generated. 

Touching the hot Vortex Blower can lead to 

personal injury and burns. 

  Do not touch the Vortex Blower if the power 

supply is still ON. This applies even if the 

Vortex Blower is stopped. 

The Vortex Blower may suddenly start, 

resulting in an personal injury or electric 

shock.
