Procedure for assembly of the fan:
Mount and level the lower section of the fan
Set the rotor down onto the fan lower section and align
Seal the partition flange with sealing material
Mount the housing upper section carefully, ensuring that
the sealing material does not shift or sustain damage
Align the inlet cone and nozzle with one another and
perform an inspection of the gap
Observe the minimum gap and check several points
around the circumference, refer to chapter 8.2 Checking
The measured minimum gap between inlet cone and
nozzle must be within the range of 3 … 15 mm.
Permissible deviations are indicated in the order-related
drawings
Wherever no other order-related minimum gaps are
specified on the separate general drawing for the fan, the
aforementioned specification applies for the minimum gap
Align the shaft seal centrally to the shaft and screw with
the housing (where featured: remove the transport locking
plates of the shaft seal; transport locking is clearly
identified with an information plate)
If the motor has not yet been fitted:
Assemble, align and fit the motor
Align the coupling halves with one another in accordance
with the instructions of the manufacturer
Fit all protective covers
Perform a final inspection for installation and tighten the
screws with the corresponding tightening torque, refer to
