Example: Deflection distance of a 40” span would be
40/64” or 5/8”.
Example: Deflection distance of a 400mm span
would be 6mm.
3- Measure belt deflection force. For a used belt, the
deflection force should be 5 lbs. (35kPa). A new belt
deflection force should be 7 lbs. (48kPa).
A force below these values indicates an
undertensioned belt. A force above these values
indicates an overtensioned belt.
H-Field-Furnished Blower Drives
For field-furnished blower drives, use page 19 through 26
to determine BHP and RPM required. Reference Page 27
to determine the drive kit number. Reference table 6 for
manufacturer's drive numbers.
