<strong>Tower</strong> <strong>Dryer</strong> Ops & ServiceSAFETY PRECAUTIONS1. Read and understand the operating manual before trying to operatethe dryer.2. Never operate the dryer while any guards are removed.3. Power supply should be OFF for service of electrical components.Use CAUTION in checking voltage or other procedures requiringpower to be ON.4. Check for gas leaks at all gas pipe connections. If any leaks aredetected, do not operate dryer. Shut down and repair before furtheroperation.5. Never attempt to operate the dryer by jumping or otherwise bypassingany safety devices on the unit.6. Do not exceed maximum recommended drying temperatures.7. Keep the dryer clean. Do not allow fine material to accumulate inthe plenum chamber.8. Keep blower drive belts tight enough to prevent slippage.9. Use CAUTION in working around high speed fans, gas burners, augersand auxiliary conveyors which START AUTOMATICALLY.10. Do not operate in any area where combustible material will be drawn intothe fan.READ THESE INSTRUCTIONSBEFORE OPERATION AND SERVICESAVE FOR FUTURE REFERENCE11. Be certain that capacities of auxiliary conveyors are matched to dryermetering capacities.12. Clean grain is easier to dry. Fine material increases resistance to airflowand requires removal of extra moisture.13. Do not adjust any moving part on the dryer while it is running.Use Caution In TheOperation Of This EquipmentThe design and manufacture of thisdryer is directed toward operatorsafety. However, the very natureof a grain dryer having a gas burner,high voltage electrical equipment andhigh speed rotating parts, doespresent a hazard to personnel, whichcan not be completely safeguardedagainst, without interfering with efficientoperation and reasonable accessto components.Use extreme caution in workingaround high speed fans, gas-firedheaters, augers and auxiliary conveyors.KEEP THE DRYER CLEANDO NOT ALLOW FINEMATERIAL TOACCUMULATE IN THEPLENUM CHAMBEROR SURROUNDING THEOUTSIDE OF THE DRYERContinued safe, dependable operationof automatic equipment depends,to a great degree, upon theowner. For a safe and dependabledrying system, follow the recommendationswithin this manual, and makeit a practice to regularly inspect theoperation of the unit for any developingproblems or unsafe conditions.Take special note of the safetyprecautions listed above before attemptingto operate the dryer.3

Unload lower limit - the minimumunloading speed that can maintain the samplingbox of the dry sensor full of grain. Itis essential to have the sensor fully covered6. Moisture Control Diagnosisbutton - to access the diagnostic screen forfactory trouble shooting.14


<strong>Tower</strong> <strong>Dryer</strong> Ops & ServiceTRI-POINT MOISTURE CONTROLLERIII. Operation Procedure1. Start the dryer; set the dryer unload at adesired speed from the dryer control panel.2. Let the dryer run under manual modefor warming up until the column graintemperature has stabilized and the moisturecoming out of the dryer is within ± 2% ofthe target moisture.3. During the start-up period, calibrateboth the wet and dry sensors against abench meter as follows:a) Press “SENSOR CALIBRATION”button from the moisture control set-upscreen to open the sensor calibrationscreen.b) Take grain samples from the dryer,measure the moisture with a bench meterand then compare to the sensor readingduring the sampling period.Change the sensor offset if the sensorreading does not match the bench measurement.For example, if the offset was 1.0%,and the sensor reading is 0.5% lower thanthe bench meter, then change the offset to1.5% to match the sensor to the benchmeter. Likewise, if the sensor reading ishigher than the bench meter, the offsetshould be decreased accordingly.15


TRI-POINT MOISTURE CONTROLLERThe sensor should be calibrated 2-3 times aday. At the same time check and clean the sensorand sensor sampling box to make sure that there isno debris blocking the grain flow around thesensor.4. Check or change the target moisturefrom the main screen.5. Press “MOIST CONTROL” to accessthe moisture control set-up screen.<strong>Tower</strong> <strong>Dryer</strong> Ops & ServiceCheck upper/lower unloading limits andchange them if needed.6. Press the “CONTROL MODE”button from the moisture control set-upscreen and set the mode to AUTO. Themoisture controller will start adjusting theunload rate between the upper and lowerlimits of the unload speed to maintain themoisture coming out of the dryer.IV. How the Controller WorksThe controller continuously monitors themoisture coming in and out of the dryer,and the column grain temperature at the endof the drying section. The control action ismainly based on the dry sensor at the outletof the dryer. If the moisture coming out ofthe dryer is not right at the target, the controllerwill speed up or slow down theunload device accordingly. The wet sensorand the column grain temperature sensor areintended to detect moisture spikes cominginto the dryer so that the moisture controllercan react ahead of time. For example, if thewet sensor detects a jump of moisturecoming into the dryer, the controller willstart slowing down the unload speed rightaway. However, the controller does not actto the full scale immediately. Instead, itslows down the dryer gradually so that thegrain currently in the dryer will not beoverdried too much.In the first pass after the dryer started, thecontroller does not have enough informationof the grain in the dryer. It controls thedryer by using the manual speed setting as astarting point. In other words, the manualspeed setting is most responsible for thefirst pass of drying. Therefore, set themanual unloading speed as close as itshould be for the grain currently in the dryerbefore switching to AUTO control mode.The manual speed setting does not have tobe adjusted after the controller is switchedinto AUTO mode.16


<strong>Tower</strong> <strong>Dryer</strong> Ops & ServiceTRI-POINT MOISTURE CONTROLLERV. AlarmsThe controller checks the sensors and control status regularly. If abnormalconditions are detected, a corresponding alarm will go off, an alarm message will come upon the main screen and the dryer will be shut down.ALARM CAUSES SOLUTIONMoisture out of range -the moisture coming outof the dryer was 2.5%above or below the setpointfor more than onehour under AUTO controlmodeDry sensor error -sensor reading is less than6% or higher than 40%Dry grain temperature outof range (0-300F)Wet sensor error -sensor readng is less than6% or higher than 40%Wet grain temp. out ofrange(0-300F)Column grain temperatureRTD out of range(0-300F)• Sensor box plugged andsensor was not coveredby grain• Dry sensor out ofcalibration• Too big swing ofmoisture coming into thedryer• Bad wiring• Bad sensor• Bad circuit board• Bad wiring• Bad sensor• Bad circuit board• Bad wiring• Bad sensor• Bad circuit board• Bad wiring• Bad sensor• Bad circuit board• Bad wiring• Bad sensor• Bad circuit board• Clear the sampler andsensor box• Calibrate the sensor• Run the dryer manuallyfor one pass• Check connection• Change the sensor• Change the circuit board• Check connection• Change the sensor• Change the circuit board• Check connection• Change the sensor• Change the circuit board• Check connection• Change the sensor• Change the circuit board• Check connection• Change the sensor• Change the circuit board17

MAINTENANCE


<strong>Tower</strong> <strong>Dryer</strong> Ops & ServiceMAINTENANCEPRE-SEASONAL INSPECTION ANDSERVICEThe dryer is made of weather resistant material, and isdesigned to require minimum service. However, eachseason we recommend the following items be checkedbefore the unit is used, and any damaged or questionableparts replaced. These checks will help eliminatepossible failures, and assure dependable operation ofthe equipment.1. Shut off electrical power. Open power box andcontrol box, and inspect for moisture, rodent damageor accumulated foreign material present. Inspectand tighten any loose terminal connections.Replace any damaged or deteriorated wiring.2. Lubricate the blowers, motors, and metering systemas outlined in the Lubrication Table below.3. Check blower belts for proper tension.4. Inspect and clean the burner. Visually check thatno holes in the stainless steel air mixing plates areplugged. If burner ports are plugged, clear themwith a piece of wire or a drill bit. After a period ofseveral years, it may become necessary to drillout the burner ports to clear away accumulatedrust. Use a #43 drill bit to return burner ports totheir original diameter. (See burner drilling procedurein the Maxon Burner area of the COMPO-NENT MANUALS section of this book.)(NOTE: Pre-2002 model dryers require a #47drill bit.)8. On Zimmerman <strong>Dryer</strong>s equipped with theAccutrol sweep unload metering system, checkthe discharge area to insure that the area is cleanedof stalks and old grain. Inspect the sweeps forexcessive wear.9. On <strong>GSI</strong> <strong>Dryer</strong>s equipped with the hopperedmetering system, check the hopper area and thearea around the metering drum to insure that theyare cleaned of stalks and old grain. Check theedges of the metering drum for excessive wear.10. Important!! The covers to the dischargesections on both the Zimmerman and <strong>GSI</strong> <strong>Tower</strong>dryers must be in place and clamped down at alltimes when the dryer is in operation. If the coveris off during operation, the vacuum created by theblowers will suck foreign matter from thedischarge area and deposit it in the heat section ofthe dryer plugging the inside screens of the dryeralso creating a fire hazzard.SEE PRE-SEASON CHECKLIST ATTHE END OF THIS SECTION5. Check electrical connections at both the flame rodand spark plug. Clean spark ignitor and flamerod. Replace if necessary.6. Check drain valve on gas train to insure that thereis no water in the gas train. Valve should alwaysbe open when the dryer is not being used. Insurethat drain valve is closed prior to dryer operation.7. Lubricate linkage on gas modulating valve.25


MAINTENANCE<strong>Tower</strong> <strong>Dryer</strong> Ops & ServiceSEASONAL INSPECTION ANDSERVICE1. Important! The covers to the metering system access door(s)must be in place at all times when the dryer is in operation.Before turning blowers always make sure this door is clampedinto position.2. Follow lubrication guides as outlined in the LubricationTable.3. Do not let grain fines and dust accumulate inside thecooling section of the dryer. Bi-weekly if drying most productsor daily if drying milo, clean the cooling chamber floor offines and dust. Sweep down the cooling section sheets ifnecessary. Fines can be swept into the unload systems onboth the Zimmerman and <strong>GSI</strong> dryers.4. Do not let grain fines and dust accumulate inside theheat section of the dryer. Daily check the hopper dividerthat separates the heat section from the cooling section toinsure that it remains clean and open.5. When cleaning dryer, check the grain discharge area on thedryer. On <strong>GSI</strong> hopper bottom dryers check around the meteringdrum to insure that grain is flowing freely from each columnand that there is no trash build-up. On ZimmermanAccutrol sweep dryers check the sweeps for trash or stalkbuildups that could be obstructing grain flow.6. If undried grain is left in the dryer for more than a week duringthe drying season, inspect the plenum roof to make sure thatthere is no wet grain sticking to the roof that could restrictgrain flow. When the dryer is restarted make sure that all graincolumns are evenly unloading.7. When drying dirty corn in high humidity conditions, sludgemay build up in the upper outside sheets of the dryer. Thisbuild up can be removed by either washing the sheets downwith a high pressure water hose, or by shutting incoming grain,dropping the grain level to below the plugged area, and thenrunning the fans and burner to dry the affected area. Tappingor sweeping the sheets will dislodge debris. Attempting tosweep off the sheet build-up while it is still wet will usuallyplug the sheet more.IN CASE OF FIRE1. When you first detect a fire, the entire drying operation shouldbe shut down, including grain flow into and out of the dryer.The emergency controls may have already done this. Also,shut off the electrical and fuel supply to the dryer.4. Locate the area of the fire.5. If the fire can be extinguished with a fire extinguisher, waterhose or by removing the burning material, this should be doneright away. Watch the dryer closely for another fire after onehas occurred.6. Emergency discharge slide gates at the bottom of each columnas well as easy access gates located near the hopper dischargearea permit fast dumping of each individual grain column.7. A fire extinguisher should be located at or near the dryer, if afire seems to be getting out of control call the fire department.END OF SEASON SERVICE1. Empty the dryer at the end of the drying season. The dryershould not be used for grain storage. Grain left in there for anextended period of time can become wet, swell and spoil.Chunks of spoiled grain can plug the metering system andswelled grain places undue stress on the interior and exteriorsheeting of the dryer.2. Clean out the plenum roof grain cushion and remove any grainthat may be hanging up on the plenum roof.3. Make sure the grain exchangers are clean.4. Clean out the hopper that divides the heat section from thecooling section.5. Clean the cooling chamber floor.6. Remove all grain and trash from the metering drum floor. Thisgrain can be raked out by hand by opening the slide gateslocated in the hopper bottom of the dryer.7. Make sure gas supply is shut off to the dryer.8. Open the gas train drain valve located on the bottom of the gastrain.9. It is a good practice to cover the burner with a tarpaulin orplastic to insure a clean burner.2. Do not try to cool a fire by running fan(s).3. Never run grain from the dryer into the elevator or storage if afire is known or suspected.26

English-6Prepare For Drive Start-Up!ATTENTION: Power must be applied to the drive to perform thefollowing start-up procedures. Some of the voltages present are atincoming line potential. To avoid electric shock hazard or damage toequipment, only qualified service personnel should perform thefollowing procedure. Thoroughly read and understand the procedurebefore beginning. If an event does not occur while performing thisprocedure, Do Not Proceed. Remove All Power including usersupplied control voltages. User supplied voltages may exist even whenmain AC power is not applied to the drive. Correct the malfunctionbefore continuing.Before Applying Power to the Drive❏ 1. Confirm that all inputs are connected to the correct terminals and aresecure.❏ 2. Verify that AC line power at the disconnect device is within the ratedvalue of the drive.❏ 3. Verify that any digital control power is 24 volts.❏ 4. Verify that the Sink (SNK)/Source (SRC) Setup DIP Switch is set tomatch your control wiring scheme. See page 5 for location.Important: The default control scheme is Source (SRC). The Stopterminal is jumpered (I/O Terminals 01 and 11) to allowstarting from the keypad. If the control scheme is changedto Sink (SNK), the jumper must be removed from I/OTerminals 01 and 11 and installed between I/O Terminals01 and 04.❏ 5. Verify that the Stop input is present or the drive will not start.Important: If I/O Terminal 01 is used as a stop input, the jumperbetween I/O Terminals 01 and 11 must be removed.Applying Power to the Drive❏ 6. Apply AC power and control voltages to the drive.❏ 7. Familiarize yourself with the integral keypad features (see next page)before setting any Program <strong>Group</strong> parameters.Start, Stop, Direction and Speed ControlFactory default parameter values allow the drive to be controlled fromthe integral keypad. No programming is required to start, stop, changedirection and control speed directly from the integral keypad.Important: To disable reverse operation, see A095 [Reverse Disable].If a fault appears on power up, refer to page 11 for an explanation of thefault code. For complete troubleshooting information, refer to thePowerFlex 4 User <strong>Manual</strong> on the CD supplied with the drive.

Series NP-LE AIRFLO ® BurnersPage 5550-S-1Installation InstructionsGeneralImportant: Do not discard packing material untilall loose items are accounted for.Avoid bending or damaging the steel mixing platesof your Series NP-LE AIRFLO ® Burner duringuncrating and installation.These burners are usedfor the heating of fresh airin motion. Mount theburners so they fire parallelto and in the same directionas the movement ofthe air (see sketch 1 atright).Velocity and flow of airat operating temperaturemust be uniform. Minimumsilhouette profile plates of6" should be installed induct to completely surround burner assembly.SupportsSeries NP-LE AIRFLO ® Burner assemblies must beadequately supported and positioned.Avoid rigid mounting. Burner assembly expandsand contracts with temperature variations.Maintain smooth, even air flow over the burner bydesigning supports to provide minimum interference,deflection and turbulence.The sketches below show typical installation andsupport methods:Strap IronFrameMaxonSupportBracketsAirMovementBolt or RodLong enough to permitbrackets to move withburner expansionAllow Spacefor BurnerExpansionAirMovement2 3Strap IronFrameAngle IronSupportSketch 2 shows the burner suspended from a strapiron frame using Maxon USB support brackets. Notethat rigid mounting is avoided by the bracket holewhich slips loosely over a bolt or steel rod attached tothe support. Gas piping would need independentsupport.Sketch 3 shows the burner assembly resting uponangle iron brackets and not attached to them in anyway. Be sure the angle iron supports allow the burnerflanges to expand and contract. Gas manifoldingwould be independently supported and preventforward movement of the burner.Sketch 4 shows simple strap iron used to supportthe burner.

Page 5550-S-2 Series NP-LE AIRFLO ® BurnersInstallation Instructions (cont'd.)Gas TrainSee piping layout below to identify various typicalsystem components.Pipe size of gas line must be large enough toassure ample fuel pressure at maximum systemcapacity. Burner capacity is totally dependent on fueldifferential being maintained. (See capacity/specificationdata for the actual fuel pressure required at theburner to achieve its rated capacity.)Clean fuel lines are essential to prevent blockageof pipe train components or burner gas ports. All dirt,scale and pipe dope should be blown out of any gasline before actually connecting to the burner system.Main shut-off cock should be upstream of bothsystem regulator and pilot line take-off. Use it to shutoff fuel to both pilot and main burner during extendedshutdown periods. Maxon Control Valves are notintended for tight shutoff. Main system shut-off shouldalways be accomplished with a manual fuel cock.Main gas regulator is essential to maintain auniform system supply pressure. A separate regulatorshould be provided in the branch leading to eachburner system if more than one is served by a commonmain. Size regulator for full system capacity atrequired pressure, including pipe train losses.The gas train piping illustrated should be installedas close to the burner as possible.Pilot take-off should be upsteam of main gasregulator, but downstream of main gas cock. Itnormally includes pilot shut-off cock, pilot gas regula-tor and pilot solenoid valves. For pilot adjustment, afixed orifice, or adjustable orifice is recommended at ornear the pilot gas inlet.Fuel shut-off valves, when properly wired to asafety control system, shuts the fuel supply off when ahazardous operating condition is sensed by yourcontrol circuit. <strong>Manual</strong> reset valves require operatorattendence each time the system is started up (orrestarted after a trip-out). Motorized shut-off valvespermit automatic start/restart when used with appropriatecontrol system.Fuel control valve controls burner heat release bythrottling gas flow to it. It should include provision foran adjustable minimum and throttling over a turndownrange that matches burner capabilities. The illustrationshows a Series "CV" Flow Control Valve; butadjustable gradient SYNCHRO ® and/or "Q" FlowControl Valves may be used.Gas pressure test connections are provided inmost Series NP-LE Burner end plate sets, but it isalso helpful to provide an additional test connection inthe piping between main gas regulator and fuelcontrol valve. All connections must be plugged unlessan actual pressure measuring device (gauge ormanometer) is being used.Maxon assumes no responsibility for the useor misuse of the piping layouts shown.Specific piping and wiring diagrams shouldalways be submitted to the appropriateagencies for approval on each application.Strap IronFrameTypical Piloted SystemAirMovement7SupportBracketsAirMovementmCORPORATIONMUNCIE, INDIANA, USAINDUSTRIAL COMBUSTION EQUIPMENT AND VALVESMaxon practices a policy of continuous product improvement.

Series NP-LE AIRFLO ® BurnersPage 5550-S-3Start-Up InstructionsRead complete instructions before proceeding, andfamiliarize yourself with all the system's equipmentcomponents. Verify that your equipment has beeninstalled in accordance with the original manufacturer'scurrent instructions.CAUTION: Initial adjustment and light-off shouldbe undertaken only by trained and experiencedpersonnel familiar with combustion systems,with control/safety circuitry and with knowledgeof the overall installation. Instructions providedby the company and/or individuals responsiblefor the manufacture and/or overall installation ofcomplete system incorporating Maxon burnerstake precedence over these provided by Maxon.If Maxon instructions conflict with any codes orregulations, contact Maxon Corporation beforeattempting start-up.For initial system start-up:1. Close all burner fuel valves and/or cocks. Makepreliminary adjustments to fuel regulators.2. Check all electric circuitry. Verify that all safetydevices and interlocks are operable and functioningwithin their respective settings/ranges.Be sure all manifolds are tight and that test portsare plugged if not being used.3. Check that all duct and chamber dampers areproperly positioned and locked into operatingpositions.4. Start main volume air fan. Check for propermotor rotation and impeller direction. Verify allsafety interlocks are working. Allow air handlingequipment to run adequate purge of manifoldand combustion chamber plenums. Verify airvolume and velocity across burner element to bewithin burner operating specifications.CAUTION: Do not by-pass control panel timerstypically controlling sequential operations.5. Disconnect the automatic control motor linkagefrom your Maxon Control Valve by loosening thecontrol motor's connecting rod from the valve'stoggle linkage. Initial start-up adjustment shouldonly be accomplished during a "manual" controlmode. <strong>Manual</strong>ly set and secure control valve inits "minimum" position.6. To light and adjust gas pilot: Pilot gas regulatorshould initially be set at 2-5” wc. With pilot gassolenoid valves closed, open main fuel gas andpilot gas cock. Energize spark ignitor and openpilot gas solenoid. Turn adjustable orifice screwout (counter-clockwise) several turns from itsfully seated position or adjust regulator pressurewhen fixed orifice is used. Observe pilot ignitionthrough a sight port and/or by viewing micro-ampsignal metered from flame safeguard relay circuit.Refine pilot setting for a hard blue flame (and/orstrongest micro-amp signal) by adjusting gasflow through pilot orifice and/or pilot regulator.7. Prepare to ignite main burner by adjusting maingas regulator to approximately midpoint of itsadjustment range. Linkage arrangement for theuse of Series "CV" Gas Control Valve is illustratedabove for a typical control motor. Arrangeaccordingly.8. With control valve at "minimum," ignite mainburner by opening main fuel shut-off valves.Adjust main gas regulator to give the desiredoutlet pressure. Refine pilot adjustment if it hasbeen affected. Adjust burner "minimum" byturning in on the minimum stop screw of the gascontrol valve until stable flame appears in thenarrow zipper channel at the base of burnermixing plates.6/03Maxon practices a policy of continuous product improvement.

Any thin spots or gapsindicate uneven air velocity over the burnerwhich must be corrected or a higher minimumfire established by continuing to turn in on theminimum stop screw. (See drawing on page5550-S-2.)NOTE: If your Maxon NP-LE AIRFLO ® Burnerwas furnished with an adjustable gradient typeSeries "Q" or SYNCHRO ® Control Valveinstead of a Series "CV" Valve, refer to step8A through 8I for specific instructions anddifferences in adjustment procedures.For Series “CV” Valves, skip to step 9.Adj. Screws(under cover)Handle for<strong>Manual</strong>OperationPositionIndicatorPointerLocking Screwfor manualoperationA. From step #5, the automatic control motorlinkage has already been disconnected fromyour adjustable gradient type control valveand the valve is at its "minimum" position.B. Open fuel supply and begin adjustment ofappropriate adjustable gradient valve byturning in minimum (or lowest numbered)screw until desired flame is achieved. (Mainfuel regulator may need adjusted at thispoint.)C. Once your flame is established and refinedat this position, and without advancing thescrew carrier quadrant higher, screw allremaining screws down to at least the samelevel as your first adjusted screw.NOTE: A preliminary setting can be establishedwith all the remaining adjustingscrews. Generally, each succeeding screwneeds to be screwed in approximately onefull turn deeper than its preceeding screw. Asmooth "stair-step" gradient pre-set at thispoint from low to high will simplify theremaining adjustment steps.D. Without advancing the SYNCHRO ® Valvequadrant, screw down on #2 screw (one ortwo turns). Then slowly advance theSYNCHRO ® Valve quadrant to the #2position. Refine flame appearance at thisnew position #2.E. Turn all higher-numbered screws in at leastas far as the one just adjusted, then turnnext one in as necessary to achieve desiredflame while rotating valve mechanism to thatposition on indicator strip.F. Repeat for each remaining screw.NOTE: To avoid possible damage to camstrips, always turn all higher-numberedscrews in as far as the last one adjusted.G. Refine adjustment as needed, alwaysturning valve so that position indicatormatches screw being adjusted.For more fuel, turn screw in (clockwise). forless fuel, turn screw out (counter-clockwise).If screws must be turned in flush with carriercasting, increase fuel pressure and readjustby starting at minimum over again.H. Cycle system off and on, and through allfiring rates until satisfied with performance.I. Reconnect control motor linkage and checkthat operator does not "bind" and that allinterlocks are performing properly.9. Adjust burner "high fire" by slowly rotating fuelcontrol valve crank arm towards its maximum.Observe flame characteristics carefully. Flameshould remain a bright blue color with a lengthbeyond the mixing plates as indicated in capacity/specificationdata. If flame becomes long andyellow, gas pressure is too high and/or airvelocity is too low.NOTE: Dust and/or chemicals entrained intopassing air stream may effect physical color offlame. In this case, adjust burner for stable flameshape and geometry.To measure gas pressure, connect watercolumn (manometer) to the test connection inburner's end plate. To determine air velocity, usea velometer at the profile opening. Correctvelocities by increasing or decreasing profileopening size.If flame is too short, gas pressure may be toolow and should be increased or velocities aretoo high and may need to be decreased. Notethat air velocities should be measured onlywhen the fan is handling air at the desiredcontrol temperature.mCORPORATIONMUNCIE, INDIANA, USAINDUSTRIAL COMBUSTION EQUIPMENT AND VALVESMaxon practices a policy of continuous product improvement.

Series NP-LE AIRFLO ® BurnersPage 5550-S-5Start-Up Instructions (cont'd.)The desired maximum capacity may beachieved with less than full control valve opening.Mark with a pencil or scribe the point onvalve crank arm where the desired maximum isobtained, then return crank arm to low positionand shut system off.10. If using Maxon Series “CV” Valve, reconnectcontrol motor linkage (with control motor in lowor minimum position) by loosening toggle clampscrew 1 and moving toggle clamp 2 along theconnecting linkage to a point where toggleclamp bolt 3 can be placed at the outermostposition of control motor crank slot. Then tightentoggle clamp screw 1, thus fixing clamp tolinkage.Allowing toggle clamp bolt 3 to slide in the crankarm slot, cycle control motor towards its maximumposition and move fuel control valve crank4 to the previously-determined maximum firingrate position. Tighten toggle clamp bolt 3, thusfixing clamp to motor crank.Cycle control motor back to minimum, watchingcarefully that it does not bind before reachingminimum.If it is stopped or if minimum is not reached,loosen toggle clamp screw 1 and move toggleclamp along the connecting linkage so bothmotor and valve can assume their minimumpositions. Then retighten toggle clamp screw 1.Refine adjustment by cycling several timesbetween low and high control motor positionwhile readjusting toggle clamp bolt 3 as necessaryuntil control motor travels through its fullcycle while moving control valve crank arm fromits minimum only up to the desired maximumpreviously determined.11. Relight burner and cycle control system fromlow to high fire several times to observe performance.Refine adjustments of pilot and mainburner minimum if necessary.Warning: Test every UV Flame SensorSystem for dangerous spark excitation fromignitors and other burners, as well as otherpossible sources of direct or reflected UVradiation.12. Check carefully that all interlocks and limits arein full operating condition.

Series NP-LE AIRFLO ® BurnersPage 5550-S-11Maintenance InstructionsPeriodic maintenance will insure continued troublefreeoperation of your Series NP-LE AIRFLO ® Burnersystem.At least a yearly inspection is recommended formake-up air heating installations and more frequentlyfor process applications in year-round operation. Yourown experience is the best guide in determiningfrequency of inspection. As a minimum, the followingprocedure should be followed:1. Shut the system down totally. Disconnect or lockout power supply so there can be no accidentalstart-up during inspection.2. Inspect the burners carefully, including upstreamand downstream sides of mixing plates as well asburner body face. Any accumulation of scale orforeign material on either side of the mixing platesshould be removed with a wire brush. Checkvisually that no holes in the mixing plates areblocked. See next page (5550-S-12) for inspectionand maintenance instructions for gas ports.WARNING: Do not enlarge burner ports orperformance may be drastically affected.If any mixing plates are loose or missing fasteners,tighten/replace as necessary. Always use zinc platedor stainless metric fasteners.3. Put system back into operation and, if possible,view from downstream side while cycling burnerthrough full firing range. This will give a visualcheck for blocked burner ports.4. Observe flame pattern and, if necessary, takesteps to correct velocity and/ or air distributionproblems.Repair / Replacement ProceduresIf adverse operating conditions or accidentaldamage make it necessary to replace either individualmixing plates or complete burner sections, follow thisprocedure:1. Identify necessary replacement parts fromcomponent identification drawings on precedingpages, then order required quantities of each.Consider carefully the economics of installing acomplete replacement burner instead of replacingindividual parts. Once exposed to actual flametemperatures, burner castings harden and theremoval and replacing of fasteners can be timeconsuming and difficult. Accessibility may also beseverely limited requiring removal of completeassembly in any case.2. When necessary parts have been received,remove damaged mixing plates or burner sections,taking care not to damage remainingportion of burner. If new burner bodies are beinginstalled, place body gasket on the matingflanges of loose cast iron bodies. (This is necessaryto provide a gas-tight seal after assembly.)Insert new section into place, making sure thatboth flanges are square and flush, then boltsections together.3. Install new mixing plates, back up bars and platesupport brackets to the new body castings.4. If end plate sets must be installed, put in positionbetween mixing plates and insert fastenersloosely. Do not tighten at this time.5. Tighten burner body bolts making sure thatmating cast iron flanges remain square and flush.6. Align mixing plates and check that body gasketsare in position and properly aligned. Tighten allmixing plate mounting screws and bolts.7. Double check that all fasteners are secure.8. Return burner to operation, observing flamecarefully at all firing rates.1/01Maxon practices a policy of continuous product improvement.

Page 5550-S-12Series NP-LE AIRFLO ® BurnersInspection and Maintenance of Gas Ports– Conduct initial inspection within the first monthafter commissioning. Visually check the gas portsof new burner assemblies for any piping scale ordebris. Use Pin Vise with drill bit to remove.– Annual inspections are normally adequate oncethe initial piping debris is removed. The operatingconditions of the burner will determine howfrequently maintenance is actually required.– Use of an electric drill motor is not suggestedunless both Pin Vise and Drill (as shown below)can be chucked up in a vari-speed drill unit. Usecaution, because it is easy to snap the bits off in aport when using a drill motor.

Flow Control ValvesPage 7000-S-1Installation Instructions– Support weight of piping independently. Do notplace any Maxon Flow Control Valve in a pipingbind. Provide pipe hangers and/or special supportfor related manifolds.– Maxon connecting base and linkage assembliesare designed to locate and/or position thecontrol operator for its interaction with the FlowControl Valve assembly. They are not intended tosupport the weight of the control motor. Specialprovisions will be required to support the weight ofthe control operators.– Use of pipe heavier than schedule #40 cancause interference with butterfly-type Flow ControlValves and restrict the valve from full opening.– Flow Control Valves provide the means toadjust fluid and/or gas flows. They should beinstalled with at least four pipe diameter lengths ofstraight pipe before and after the valve. Thislessens the chance of internal flow turbulence beingset-up in the piping manifolds and control valve.– Check fluid flow direction through “-P” and “-O”poppet-type valves. It must flow only in directionmatching the arrow cast into valve body. If necessary,valve body may be rotated per instructionsgiven on page 7016.– Install flow control valves carefully and maintainadequate dimensional clearance to allow fullstroke and travel of the valve’s control linkage.Internal drive mechanisms within a control motormay be damaged if linkage is restricted as to causebinding in high or low flow position.CAUTION: All Flow Control Valves are designedfor throttling service only and are not intendedfor tight shut-off.– Main system shut-off should always use amanual “leak-tight” upstream fuel cock.Mounting Instructions for motor operator on Series “CV” Flow Control ValvesFor those Series “CV” Valve assemblies furnished withconnecting base and linkage, the accompanying diagramsillustrate mounting procedures relative to each specific typeoperator.First, mount your control motor to connecting base inaccordance with diagrams at right.Secondly, determine if your electric operator travelsthrough 90° or 180° rotations.

Page 7000-S-2Flow Control ValvesAdjusting InstructionsNotice: Only generalized instructions can be providedhere. Detailed adjusting instructions are provided witheach individual Maxon burner and/or mixer system.General InstructionsImportant: Do not discard packing materialsuntil all loose items are accounted for.To prevent damage in transit, some connectingbase and linkage components may be packedseparately and shipped loose with your new MaxonFlow Control Valve.The Flow Control Valve is normally only a part ofyour complete combustion system. Additional pipetrain accessories and control components may berequired for a complete system installation.Read complete instructions before proceeding,and familiarize yourself with all the system’sequipment components. Verify that your equipmenthas been installed in accordance with the originalmanufacturer’s current instructions.CAUTION: Initial adjustment and light-off ofburner systems should be undertaken only bytrained and experienced personnel familiar withcombustion systems, with control/safetycircuitry, and with knowledge of the overallinstallation. Instructions provided by thecompany and/or individuals responsible for themanufacture and/or overall installation ofcomplete system incorporating Maxon burnerstake precedence over these provided by Maxon.If Maxon instructions conflict with any codes orregulations, contact Maxon Corporation beforeattempting start-up.For initial adjustment and/or burner start-up:1. Close all burner fuel valves and cocks. Makepreliminary adjustments to fuel gas regulators.2. Check all electric circuitry. Verify that allcontrol devices and interlocks are operable andfunctioning within their respective settings/ranges. Be sure all air and fuel manifolds aretight and that test ports are plugged if not beingused.3. Check that any air handling dampers areproperly positioned and locked into operatingpositions.4. Disconnect the automatic control motor’slinkage from your control valve’s operating crankarm by loosening the control motor’s connectingrod from the burner’s toggle linkage.Initial adjustment should only beaccomplished during a “manual” controlmode.5. Start all system-related fans and blowers.Check for proper motor rotation and impellerdirection. Verify that all control interlocks areworking. Allow air handling equipment to run foradequate purge of your manifolds.CAUTION: Do not by-pass control panel timerstypically controlling sequential operations.6. With MICRO-RATIO ® Valve combinations ofair and fuel valves, the minimum differentialpressure setting is initially established withthe air valve only.A. By disconnecting the linkage between the airbutterfly valve and interconnected fuelvalve(s), the minimum and maximum limits oftravel on the air valve may be determined.For example, a combustion system mayneed the air valve to be 15° open for the“minimum” setting and the “maximum”requirements are satisfied with the air valveopen to 60°. By marking these points on theair valve’s indicating strip, you are ready toreconnect the SYNCHRO Fuel Valve’slinkage to the air valve.B. The next step involves adjusting theconnecting linkage between the air valveand the fuel valve(s) so that each fuel valvetravels its full quadrant range (i.e. fromminimum to maximum), while the air valveswings from its pre-determined minimum andmaximum positions.C. With Series “CV” Valves and Series “Q”adjustable-gradient Flow Control Valves,the minimum flow position is set by theirminimum stop screw. This adjustable stop islocated on the side of the screw carrier ofSeries “Q” Valves and at the base of crankarm of Series “CV” Valves. Screwing “in” onthe minimum stop screw produces a physicalstop on the quadrant’s travel that prohibitsvalve from being completely closed off.mCORPORATIONMUNCIE, INDIANA, USAINDUSTRIAL COMBUSTION EQUIPMENT AND VALVESMaxon practices a policy of continuous product improvement.

Electro-Mechanical ValvesPage 6100-S-1Installation Instructions1. Read complete instructions before proceedingand do not discard packing materials until any/allloose items are located. Also, make sure that theinstallation of the Maxon valves will be in compliancewith all applicable governmental, insuranceand/or agency requirements or codes, such asNFPA-70, National Electric Code, CSA C22.1,Canadian Electric Code, etc.2. General considerations:A. Prior to shipment, each valve is operatedelectrically and cycled at rated and 1-1/2rated pressure while being leak tested. EveryMaxon valve is operationally tested andmeets the requirements of ANSI B16.104Class VI Seat Leakage when it leaves ourplant.B. Inspect your valve for any shipping damage.Contact Maxon Corporation with the valve’sserial number (printed on the valve's nameplate)for replacement and/or repair parts.C. Read the nameplate on your valve. Thisgives the maximum pressure, temperaturelimitation, voltage requirements and serviceconditions of your specific valve. DO NOTexceed nameplate ratings.D. Select mounting location carefully. YourMaxon valve is designed to operate for manyyears if installed in a location that is cool,clean and dry.3. Pipe the valve in the direction of the flow arrow[3] on the valve body. The Maxon valve body canshut off flow in one direction only.A. Remove all thread and flange protectorsbefore installing valve in your service line.B. Teflon tape acts as a lubricant and greatlyreduces the pipe wrench turning force requiredto seal the threads.Take care not to overtighten threads asthis can damage the valve.C. Good piping practice dictates that piping beindependently supported, so that valve bodiesare not placed in a bind. In addition, largevalves may require support.D. Clean pipe lines of foreign materials beforeinstalling valve into line.For new installations, a gas filter or strainer shall beinstalled in the fuel gas piping to protect thedownstream safety shut-off valves.per NFPA 86-4-2.4.3 (1999)NFPA 86C-4-2.4.3 (1999)NFPA 86D-4-2.4-3 (1999)If normal inlet pressure to the fuel pressure regulatorimmediately upstream from the valve exceedsthe valve’s pressure rating, a relief valve shall beprovided and it shall be vented to a safe location.per NFPA 86-5-7.1.7 (1999)NFPA 86C-5-7.1.7 (1999)NFPA 86D-5-7.1.7 (1999)E.

Main system shut-off should always use amanual leak-tight upstream fuel cock.G. Time lag between valve action and fluid flow(or flame response) is reduced if valve islocated near the burner (or outlet).4. Wire the valve in accordance with all applicablecodes and standards. Supply voltages must agreewith valve’s nameplate voltage within -15%/+10%AC or DC for proper operation. For electricalwiring schematics, refer to appropriate Maxoncatalog literature and/or the wiring schematicdiagram affixed inside your valve’s access coverplate or in the terminal block cover housing.A. The Maxon valve must be electricallyinterlocked with your safety-limit devices inaccordance with all applicable codes, standards,and the authority having jurisdictionover the safety requirements for your overallsystem installation. Normally, Maxon valvesare electrically wired in series with all of yoursafety-limit devices. Therefore, any onedevice can cause the valve to react. Eachvalve was production tested when manufactured.If it now appears inoperative, makesure it is being powered properly from andthrough your control circuit.B. Maintain integrity of Maxon top assemblyenclosure by using dust and water-tightelectrical connectors. Use cable-sealing gripsand strain-relief loops for any cord or cable.Use internal sealing materials on all conduitconnections.

Remove the two body bolts [4] screwed upfrom the bottom (were partially unscrewed instep 5).8. Carefully rotate top assembly to the desiredposition in a plane parallel to the top of the valvebody casting. Rotate the top housing about 30°beyond this position, and then rotate it back.Reposition the top housing back down onto thevalve body casting. This should align the open/shut indicator with its window and provide properalignment of the internal mechanism.9. Realign holes in valve body casting with thecorresponding tapped holes in the bottom of thetop assembly housing. Be sure the gasket is stillin place between the body and top housing.10. Reinsert the body bolts up from the bottomthrough the body and carefully engage threads ofthe top assembly. Tighten securely.11. Reconnect conduit and electrical leads, thencheck that signal switch wands are properlypositioned and that open/shut indicator movesfreely. Failure to correct any such misalignmentcan result in extensive damage to theinternal mechanism of your valve.12. Energize valve and cycle several times fromclosed to full open position.

Electro-Mechanical ValvesPage 6100-S-5Operating InstructionsRefer to appropriate catalog bulletin and specificationpage for operating sequence applying to yourspecific valve. Never operate valve until all essentialallied equipment is operative and any necessarypurges completed. Failure of electro-mechanicallyoperated valve to operate normally indicates thatit is not powered. Check this first! Then checkinternal holding solenoid and/or motor operator.Main system shut-off should always be accomplishedwith an upstream leak-tight manual fuelcock.All Maxon valves react within a fraction of asecond when de-energized (can drop out if electricalpower is interrupted for less than 1/2 cycle [8 ms]).All electro-mechanical manual reset valves maybe operated manually when solenoid is electricallyenergized, but electrical tripping is recommendedfor normal shut-downs.Electro-mechanical manual reset valves requiretwo positive actions to open: a half rotation ofhandle to latch internal mechanism, and a reversedhalf rotation of handle to open valve. This refers tonormally closed valves. With normally open valves,the procedure is the same, but the valve body position(i.e., open or closed) is opposite to the normallyclosed version.Remotely located manual reset valves may beequipped with wheel-and-chain assembly. Instructionsto operate the valve are on hand grip. Locate counterweightoverhead at pipe level and hand grip can bebrought down to convenient operating personnelheight.Normally closed motorized valves begin openingcycle immediately upon being powered; motorruns only until full open position is reached. Normallyopen valves begin to close immediately, and motorruns until fully closed position is reached.Operator should be aware of and observe characteristic opening/closing action of the valve. Should operationever become sluggish, remove valve from service and contact Maxon for recommendations.Address inquiries to: Maxon Corporation, P.O.

Page 6100-S-6Electro-Mechanical ValvesMaintenance InstructionsMaxon valves are endurance tested far in excess ofthe most stringent requirements of the various approvalagencies. They are designed for long life evenif frequently cycled, and to be as maintenance-freeand trouble-free as possible.Every Maxon valve is operationally tested andmeets the requirements of ANSI B16.104 Class VISeat Leakage when it leaves our plant.Top assembly components require no fieldlubrication and should never be oiled.Auxiliary switches, motors and solenoids, may bereplaced in the field.WARNING: Do not attempt field repair of valvebody, top assembly or motor drive unit. Anyalterations void all warranties.Valve leak test, performed with valve in line asprescribed by jurisdictional authorities, is stronglyencouraged and should be done on a regularlyscheduled basis. In rare instances where valve showsleakage, perform Pre-Operational Exercising (seebelow) and retest. If leakage does not stop, removevalve from service.Pre-operational exercising: Prior to initial fluidflow start-up and with upstream manual cock stillclosed, operate the valve electrically for 10-15 cycles.This not only provides an electrical check, but alsowipes valve body disc and seat free of accumulatedforeign matter.Maxon valves are designed to be used withclean fluids. If foreign material is present in thefuel line, it will be necessary to inspect thevalve to make certain it is operating properly. Ifabnormal opening or closing is observed, thevalve should be removed from service. Contactyour Maxon representative for instructions.Insurance authorities agree . . .. . . that the safety of any industrial fuel burninginstallation is dependent upon well-trainedoperators who are able to follow instructions andto react properly in cases of emergency. Theirknowledge of, and training on, the specificinstallation are both vital to safe operation.Safety controls may get out of order without theoperator becoming aware of it unless shutdownsresult. Production-minded operators have beenknown to bypass faulty controls without reportingthe trouble.Continued safe operation of any installation isthen assured only if the plant managementcarefully develops an exact schedule for regularperiodic inspection of all safety controls, insistingthat it then be rigidly adhered to.A main gas shut-off cock should be locatedupstream from all other fuel train piping componentsand used to shut off all flow of fuel forservicing and other shutdowns.All safety devices should be tested at leastmonthly* and more often if deemed advisable.Periodic testing for tightness of manual or motorizedshut-off valve closure is equally essential.*per NFPA 86-Appendix B-4 (1995)Operator should be aware of and observe characteristic opening/closing action of the valve.

(See sketchbelow.)1. Mount both valves in fuel line with center to centerspacing as originally specified, and blocking valve(without handle) downstream of main valve (withhandle).2. Check valve alignment to be certain that operatingwheels lie in the same plane.3. Remove tape from the wheel of the main valveand unwind the attached chain. Do not removethe screw holding chain to wheel; it has beenfactory positioned to assure correct alignment. Donot remove tension spring attached to one end ofchain or the wooden block insert which preloadsthe spring.4. Take free end of chain and loop it around thewheels of both main and blocking valve as shownin sketch below. Depending on the specific valveseries and arrangement, tension spring may belocated either above or below the wheel centerline.5. Draw free end of chain and tension spring togetherso that as much slack as possible iseliminated, then insert the open eye of the spring"S" hook through the link in the chain that willmost nearly maintain this position.6. Crimp the "S" hook shut around the chain link,then cut and discard excess chain.7. Remove spring preload wood block insert fromthe tension spring, and verify that the chain isdrawn tight.8. Rotate the operating handle of the main valvefully to latching position for your particular valve,then hold handle firmly in this position whileperforming the next few steps.9. Rotate blocking valve wheel fully counter-clockwiseuntil it strikes a stop (it will slide within theloop of chain).10. Still holding main valve wheel in place, moveblocking valve wheel approximately 1/4 to 1/2inch back in the clockwise direction. Insert the#10-24 X 1/2" screw (furnished) through the chainlink that lines up with the tapped hole on bottomof blocking valve wheel, then fasten securely.11. Verify that the valves are wired in parallel asshown in wiring schematic on page 6121.To add wheel & chain assembly toexisting tandem valves:1. Verify that both valves are in the same topassembly position (TO or AW). Rotate if necessary.(See top assembly rotation instructions onpages 6100-S-3 and 6100-S-4.)2. Bend handle of main valve outward about 25°.3. Cut off handle of blocking valve at outer wheelface.4.

The unit must slide freely onto thedriven shaft. Do not hammer or force the unit into place. Forshrink disc, follow instructions below.


AXIAL RETENTIONEach drive shaft must be retained in place relative to the gearreducer. Or each gear reducer must be retained in place relativeto the drive shaft. Either way NORD recommends the use ofshaft shoulders, locking collars or FIXING ELEMENTS to axiallyretain the shaft or gear reducer in position.SET SCREWSIf set screws are used for axial retention, they should be tightenedevenly. Flats may be filed on the driven shaft and a threadlockingadhesive used for more position retention.SNAP RING RETENTIONPlacing external snap rings on drive shafts must be performedwith caution. The groove, which the snap ring fits into, mayweaken the drive shaft causing premature failure. NORD doesnot recommend this type of shaft retention.THRUST PLATEIn applications, which are subject to high vibratory loads, a thrustplate will provide greater resistance to axial movement. Followthe manufacturer’s recommendations for assembly.SHRINK DISCIf a shrink disc is used to secure a reducer hollow shaft to thedriven shaft, follow this assembly procedure. Start with the shrinkdisc mounted onto the extension of the hollow shaft disc lockingbolts loosened.1. Clean reducer bore and mating solid shaft to be free of anylubricants or dirt.2. Slide reducer onto the solid shaft until it is about half waythrough.3. Lubricate the remaining portion of the solid shaft with a #2grease or similar lubricant. This part will be located underthe bronze bushing. Do not install grease under theshrink disc gripping area. Finish installing the solid shaftinto the reducer hollow bore.4. Finger tighten all shrink disc bolts. Now, moving a circularpattern, tighten each shrink disc locking bolt 1/4 to 1/2 turn.Do not use criss cross pattern. Continue tightening in thesame circular direction with 1/4 or 1/2 turn increments untilall bolts reach the specified bolt tightening torque. Bolttightening torque is shown on the shrink disc label for theparticular unit.5. Run unit for 24 hours, then retighten shrink disc locking boltsto the proper bolt torque as indicated above.Output and Input shaft Diameter toIeranceMetric (mm) 18 = +0.012/+0.001 18 30 = +0.015/+0.002 30 50 = +0.018/+0.002 50 80 = +0.030/+0.011 80 120 = +0.035/+0.013 120 180 = +0.040/+0.015Inch 1.750 = +0.0000/-0.0005 1.750 = +0.0000/-0.0010Output and Input shaft DriII and tap shaft endMetric (mm) 16 = M5 16 21 = M6 21 24 = M8 24 30 = M10 30 38 = M12 38 50 = M16 50 85 = M20 85 130 = M24Inch 0.438 = #10-24 x 0.4 deep 0.438 0.813 = 1/4-20 x 0.6 deep 0.813 0.938 = 5/16-18 x 0.7 deep 0.938 1.125 = 3/8-16 x 0.9 deep 1.125 1.375 = 1/2-13 x 1.1 deep 1.375 1.875 = 5/8-11 x 1.4 deep 1.875 3.250 = 3/4-10 x 1.7 deep 3.250= 1-8 x 2.2 deepOutboard pinion and sprocket fits shouId be as recommended bythe pin sprockets with interference fits shouId be heatedaccording to the manufacturer’s recommendations, generaIIy250F to 300F, (120C to 150 C) before assembIing to the shaft.LOCATIONCoupIing hubs shouId be mounted fIush with the shaft ends,unIess specificaIIy ordered for overhung mounting. Pinions,TORQUE REACTION ARMOn the shaft mount ‘Clincher’, torque is reacted through theintegral torque tab, which is part of the casting. Commonly,NORD’s optional RUBBER BUFFER bushings are installed oneach side of the integral torque tab to dampen torque shocks andallow for mis-alignment received from the machinery duringoperation.Torque arm connection fabrications should always be mountedperpendicular to a line through the output shaft center and thepoint at attachment of the torque arm to the unit housing. In thisposition the minimum load on the attachment structure arm will beexperienced. The attachment structure must be rigid and may notdeflect under any load. Doing so will place extra loads on theoutput bearings of the reducer.PRIME MOVER MOUNTINGAIign the prime mover to the reducer-input shaft using shimsunder the feet. Make sure that the feet are supported. DoweI theprime mover to its foundation.SHAFT CONNECTIONSWhen connecting shafts to either the input or output of thereducer, consider the foIIowing instructions.sprockets and sheaves shouId be mounted as cIose as possibIeto the unit housing to minimize bearing Ioads and shaftdefIections.FITSCIearance or interference fits for coupIing hubs shouId be inaccordance with ANSI/AGMA 9002-A86 or as follows.BIM 1020/2005/03 3 www.nord.com


COUPLING ALIGNMENTShaft coupIings shouId be instaIIed according to the coupIingmanufacturer’s recommendations for gap, anguIar and paraIIeIaIignment. In many instaIIations, it is necessary to aIIow forthermaI and mechanicaI shaft movement when determining shaftaIignment. The coupIing manufacturer’s recommendationsshouId be foIIowed.AXIAL DISPLACEMENTThe gap between shaft ends shouId be the same as the specifiedcoupIing gap unIess overhung mounting of the coupIing hub isspecified. The coupIing gap and shaft gap must be sufficient toaccommodate any anticipated thermaI or mechanicaI axiaImovement.ANGULAR ALIGNMENTInsert a spacer or shim stock equaI to the required coupIing gapbetween the coupIing hub faces and measure the cIearance usingfeeIer gauges. Repeat this at the same depth at 90-degreeintervaIs to determine the amount of anguIar misaIignment.PARALLEL ALIGNMENTMount a diaI indicator to one coupIing hub, and rotate this hub,sweeping the outside diameter of the other hub. The paraIIeImisaIignment is equaI to one-haIf of the totaI indicator reading.Another method is to rest a straight edge squareIy on the outsidediameter of the hubs at 90-degree intervaIs and measure anygaps with feeIer gauges. The maximum gap measurement is theparaIIeI misaIignment.CHECKING ALIGNMENTAfter both anguIar and paraIIeI aIignments are within specifiedIimits, tighten aII foundation boIts secureIy and repeat the aboveprocedure to check aIignment. If any of the specified Iimits foraIignment are exceeded, reaIign the coupIing.SPROCKET OR SHEAVE ALIGNMENTAIign the sheaves or sprockets square and paraIIeI by pIacing astraight edge across their faces. AIignment of bushed sheavesand sprockets shouId be checked after bushings have beentightened. Check horizontaI shaft aIignment by pIacing a IeveIverticaIIy against the face of the sheave or sprocket. Adjust beItor chain tension per the manufacturer’s specified procedure.CHANGES IN PERFORMANCE SPECIFICATIONSOwner has the responsibiIity to consult with NORD GEAR if suchitems such as applied Ioads, operating speeds or other operatingconditions have changed.WARNING:LOCK OUT POWER before any maintenance is performed.Make absolutely sure that no voltage is applied while work isbeing done on the gearbox.START-UP1. Ensure that switches, aIarms, heaters, coolers and othersafety and protection devices are instaIIed and operationalfor their intended purpose.2. Verify that the installed mounting position is the same as thenametag mounting position. If not, adjust the oil levelaccordingly and relocate the vent plug, fill plug and drainplug according to the mounting position. See following.AUTOVENT PLUGThe Autovent plug is brass in color and will be located at thehighest point on the gearbox. It operates like a check-valve toallow the reducer to relieve internal pressure while preventinglubricant contamination during cooling. A spring presses a ball orplunger against a machined orifice until pressure exceeds 2 psi.Above 2 psi the air is allowed to escape depressurizing thegearcase. When internal pressure drops below 2 psi, theautovent re-seals closing the unit to the outside environment.After shutdown, the reducer cools along with the air inside thereducer. The unit will temporarily maintain a slight vacuum untilnormalization occurs. NORD Gear supplies an Autovent as astandard feature.OUTBOARD PINION ALIGNMENTAIign the pinion by adjusting the gear tooth cIearance accordingto the manufacturer’s recommendations and checking foracceptabIe outboard pinion tooth contact. The foundation boItsmay have to be Ioosened and the unit moved sIightIy to obtainthis contact. When the unit is moved to correct tooth contact, theprime mover shouId be reaIigned.RECHECK ALIGNMENTAfter a period of operation, recheck aIignment and adjust asrequired.1. Properly install unit on a rigid foundation adequateIy supported secureIy boIted into pIace IeveIed so as not to distort the gear case2. Properly install couplings suitabIe for the application andconnected equipment.3. Ensure accurate aIignment with other equipment.4. Furnish and install adequate machinery guards as needed toprotect operating personneI and as required by theappIicabIe standards of the OccupationaI Safety and HeaIthAdministration (OSHA), and by other appIicabIe safetyreguIations;5. Ensure that driving equipment is running in the correctdirection before coupling to reducers with backstops(designed to operate onIy in a specific direction) ormachinery designed to operate only in one direction.The Autovent releases built-up air pressure frominside the gearbox (Max. pressure 2 psi).BIM 1020/2005/03 4 www.nord.com


FILL LEVEL & DRAIN PLUGSThe drain plugs are metric socket head cap screws. They will belocated at the lowest part of the gearbox for ease of draining. Thefill level plug is a hex head cap screw. It will be located betweenthe Autovent and drain plug. Both types of plugs will have gasketsincluded to prevent oil from leaking.LUBRICANTAII NORD reducers are shipped from the factory properIy fiIIedwith Iubricant and all plugs are installed according to the mountingposition given on the reducer nametag. Acceptable oil fill level iswithin ½ inch of the bottom of the fill plug threads.OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE CHECKLIST1. Operate the equipment as it was intended to be operated2. Do not overIoad.3.

Mounting on Exact PlanesThe Horizontal Type oil-lubricated units must bemounted on horizontal surfaces. Where they aremounted on inclined surfaces, some modifications maybe necessaly. Specify mounting plane inclination at timeof ordering.2. Accurate AlignmentWhere the reducer is connected to the motor and thedriven machine through couplings, align the shaftsaccuratelv. Where the reducer is connected through Vpulleys oi sprockets, insure that the belts or chains areneither too tight nor too slack.3. Overhung Load PositionsOverhung loads should be located as close to thebearing as possible. (See the SM-CYCLP 6000 SeriesCatalog page E-8.)4. FoundationsFoundations must be rugged enough to withstand shockand stress applied from the load side through thereducer.5. Secure HousingWhere the reduction units are operated under conditionsof vibration and/or frequent starts and stops, it isrecommended to secure them on their mountingsurfaces by inserting dowel plns into the knock-holesprovided on the foot of the casing. This will insure thatbending or shearing forces are reduced on the mountingbolts. Pins must be securely inserted, particularly whenthe units are to be operated under conditions of severerecurrent peak loads.6. Mounting AccessibilityThe reduction units must be mounted in locations witheasy accessibility for lubrication maintenance purposes.7. VentilationWhen the SM-CYCLOB Speed Reducer is mounted in aSeDarate enclosure, be sure that adeauate ventilation isprovided.Comct Incorrect Square And Parallel Correct Method Incorrect MeUlodReducer WallReducer Wall

DisassemblySM-CYCLOm Reducers aredesigned to providemaximum ease when disassembing and reassembling;they require no special maintenance skills.1. Remove the complete SM-CYCLO' Reducer withadaptor (motorized type) from the driven machine.2. Remove the plug at the bottom of the oil gauge todrain all oil from the unit.3. Remove the cooling fan cover and fan from thoseSpeed Reducers (not motorized) equipped with acooling fan, and stand the unit on a solid base with itshigh speed shaft side down. Remove the through boltsfor the high speed end shield, ring gear housing, andlift the slow speed side, thus separating the unit intotwo parts so that the inner mechanism can be removed(Figs. A-12 - A17).Note: If the reducer is motorized (C-adaptor andcoupling) remove the motor and coupling beforefollowing the procedure outlined above. As a final step,remove the adaptor and cooling fan.4. If the unit will not separate easily, gently drive awedge at the line X shown in Fig. A-1 on page A-3 (ifthis produces a burr, be sure to remove it beforereassembly).5. To lift the slow speed side, attach an eyebolt to thetapped hole on the end of the slow speed shaft anduse a hoist or chain block (Fig. A-12).6. Take out the slow speed shaft rollers, item 1-06,page A-3 (Fig. A-13). Check the slow speed shaft pins(1-01) to see whether any rollers have adhered tothem.7. Using both hands, lift out the top cycioid disc (2-04)on the slow speed side (Fig. A-14).AssemblySM-CYCLP Reducers are reassembled by reversingthe disassembly procedure. Care must be taken toexclude dust or foreign matter from the moving parts,and to see tnat aaskets are . oro~erlv . .. olaced to make theassembly oil-tight.Following are some helpful points to remember whenassembling SM-CYCLO" Reducers.1. Set the ring gear housing and insert the ring gearpins and rollers; then test-rotate the pins and rollers byhand. (Apply grease liberally to the ring gear pins androllers before they are inserted in grease lubricatedSM-CYCLP Reducers.)2. Cycloid discs are a matched pair. Each carries thesame number stamped on one side of the disc.3. Set the cycloid disc with the stamped number face upas shown in Fig. A-17.8. Remove the spacer ring (2-05).9. The eccentric (3-04) can be removed from theinput shaft (3-01) after taking out the retaining ring(3-10) and the inner bearing raceway (Figs.

DAILY INSPECTION1. Visually check the oil level gauge on the verticalunit, forced-lubricated type. Check lubrication flow byviewing piping set and oil signal (Part No. 41). Faultyoperation is caused by a lack of lubrication oil,damage to the plunger pump (Part No. 42) or thepositive displacement pump (Part No. 43) or theclogging of pipes, etc. In case of faulty operation, stopand inspect the unit immediately.2. A temperature rise of approximately 105°F (40.6%)above ambient on the surface of the ring gear housing(Part No. 2-01) is allowable if the temperaturefluctuation is small. If temperature rises rapidly from astable condition, add the recommended oil or grease(Tables A-7 and A-1 1). A rapid temperature rise maybe caused from a lack of lubrication.If after lubricating unit, the problem persists, stopoperation and consult factory.3. When an abnormal sound is heard from inside theunit, stop operation and inspect the unit.4. If the lubrication oil leaks, replace the damaged orworn part with a new one.

SERIES 72 MODUTROL IV MOTORSAuxiliary Switch AdjustmentIMPORTANTWhen adjusting the auxiliary switch cams use thefollowing procedure:1.Insert 1/8 in. screwdriver blade into a slot on camand move the screwdriver top as far as possible inthe required direction. See Fig. 10.2.Repeat step 1 in successive cam slots until thecam is in the required position.Use the following procedure to obtain the desired auxiliaryswitch settings:1. Remove the top cover from the motor to gain accessto the motor terminals and auxiliary cams.2. Disconnect the controller from the motor.3. Connect a current source to the positive and negativeterminals.4. Drive the motor to the position where the auxiliaryequipment is to be switched by increasing or decreasingthe current.5. For a switch differential of 1°, check continuity of auxiliaryswitch contacts R-B and rotate the cam as follows:a. If the contacts are open, rotate the cam clockwiseuntil the R-B contacts close.b. If the contacts are closed, rotate the camcounterclockwise until the R-B contacts open.6. For a switch differential of 10° rotate the camapproximately 180° so the slow-rise portion of thecam actuates the switch.7. Check continuity of the auxiliary switch contacts R-B.8. Rotate the cam as follows:a. If the contacts are open, rotate the camcounterclockwise until the R-B contacts close.b. If the contacts are closed, rotate the cam clockwiseuntil the R-B contacts open.c. Make final adjustment in the proper direction toobtain contact make or break at the desired position.9. Check for the proper differential and switching of theauxiliary equipment by driving the motor though the fullstroke in both directions.10. Disconnect power, remove current source, reconnectthe controller, and replace the top cover on the motor.NOTE:Changing the differential from 1° to 10° reverses theswitching action. For example, with a 10° differential,switch contacts R-B make and R-W break on acounterclockwise (closed) rotation. With a 1°differential, switch contacts R-W make and R-Bbreak on a counterclockwise (closed) rotation.1/8 INCHSTRAIGHT-BLADESCREWDRIVERMOVE SCREWDRIVER ATTOP ONLY TO ADJUST CAM.NOTE: CAMS ARE OFFSETVERTICALLY TO PROVIDEBETTER VIEW OF BACK CAM.SLOW RISEPORTION(APPROX.10° DIFF.)INNERAUXILIARYCAM(BLUE)RIGHT/INNERAUXILIARYSWITCHFAST RISEPORTION(APPROX.1° DIFF.)LEFT/OUTERAUXILIARYSWITCHFAST RISEPORTION(APPROX.1° DIFF.)OUTERAUXILIARYCAM(RED)SLOW RISEPORTION(APPROX.10° DIFF.)RIGHT/INNERAUXILIARY SWITCHINNER AUXILIARYCAM (BLUE)MOTOROPENPOWERENDMOTORCLOSELEFT/OUTERAUXILIARYSWITCHPOWER ENDOF MOTOROUTER AUXILIARYCAM (RED)M17101Fig. 10.

SERIES 72 MODUTROL IV MOTORSOPERATION AND CHECKOUTOperationThe motor feedback potentiometer and control current inputcircuit form a bridge circuit. As long as the final controlelement remains at the position proportional to the inputcurrent from the controller, the circuit is balanced, and themotor does not run. When the value of the controlled mediumchanges, the current from the controller changes, andunbalance is amplified to energize the Triac switching to runthe motor in the proper direction to correct the change in thetemperature or the pressure. The motor turns the feedbackpotentiometer to rebalance the circuit and stop the motor.CheckoutAfter installation and linkage adjustment, operate the motorthrough the controller. Make sure that:• The motor properly operates the damper or valve.• The motor responds properly as the input is varied.• The auxiliary switch, if used, operates at the desired pointof motor rotation.Inspect the motor, linkage, and valve or damper to see that allmechanical connections are correct and secure.In damper installations, the pushrod should not extend morethan a few inches past the ball joints. Check to see thatthere is adequate clearance for the linkage to move throughits stroke without binding or striking other objects.See controller or system instructions for additional checkoutprocedures.Motor Operation CheckoutCheck motor operation as follows:1. To close the motor, open terminals +, -, and F.2. To open the motor, connect terminal F to thenegative (-) motor terminal.Home and Building Control Home and Building Control Honeywell Asia Pacific Inc. Honeywell Europe S.A.

RM-1328 Rev. 9Regulator Installation andMaintenance InstructionsModel 121RegulatorsIntroductionThe Model 121 Regulator represents a combination of capacity,performance and value...Streamlined body passages provide large capacity. An externalcontrol line is required from lower case to control piping. The 121has a fast speed of response, yet is stable in operation. Soft seatsassure positive tight shutoff. Orifices are replaceable. Springsare color coded.And it is also available as a zero governor or atmospheric regulator,a differential regulator, a relief valve or backpressure regulator,vacuum regulator or vacuum breaker.Installation1. Examine the regulator for shipping damage.2. Check nameplate data. Be sure regulator conforms withwhat was ordered.3. Inside of regulator and piping must be clean and free ofdirt. Remove all dirt and debris before installing regulator.Failure to remove dirt/debris could result in regulator damageor trouble.4. Remove all shipping screens and covers from the regulator.Do not let dirt get inside the regulator.5. Install the regulator.Make sure the inlet and outlet are correctly connected.High pressure connects to the inlet. The flow arrow mustpoint downstream.6. Screwed connections must conform with good piping practicefree of excess thread engagement per ANSI B2.1Apply pipe joint compound to male threads only.7. The Model 121 Regulator is usually right side-up as shownon the Typical Installation drawing (See Page 2). It may,however, be installed upside down. Although, when invertedit may be necessary to readjust the set-point.Caution: Do not install sideways. The diaphragm shouldbe horizontal.8. On indoor installations requiring venting outdoors, run thevent piping as short and direct as possible with minimumbends and elbows. Use the same size or larger pipe asthe vent connections on the regulator. With natural gas, orany other hazardous gas, vent to a safe place outdoors incase gas should accidentally be discharged. Screen andprotect the opening outdoors to guard against water, ice,dirt, debris or insects.Install the control line. Connect it into the outlet piping atleast 5 pipe diameters downstream from the regulator.CAUTIONS:a. On backpressure regulators and relief valves theexternal control line connects into the inlet piping,5 pipe diameters upstream from the regulator.b. Do not install any automatic shutoff device thatcloses completely between the regulator and thecontrol line connection into the piping.To avoid excessive turbulence, the connection should beclean and smooth on the inside and be located in straightpipe clear of valves and fittings. Keep the inside of thecontrol line clean and protect it from corrosion. Pitch itaway from the regulator and avoid moisture pockets. Itmust be strong ( 1 / 4 " for 121-8 and 121-12, 1 / 2 " for 121-16, or larger steel tubing or pipe is preferred). It must bewell protected against breakage (remember...regulatorsopen wide if the control line breaks).9. Make sure the regulator is correctly connected andadequately supported and pipe joints are tight.Start-UpA. The inlet and outlet shutoff valves should both be closed. If aby-pass is used, the by-pass valve should also be closed.B. Note the set-point (set-point is the outlet pressure the regulatoris adjusted to deliver). Regulator is factory adjusted to theset-point specified on the order.CAUTION: This caution applies where the piping downstreamof the outlet shutoff valve is pressured. That pressuremust not exceed the regulator set-point bymore than the pressure noted (see “MaximumEmergency Pressures”, Page 18).C. Slowly and carefully open the inlet shutoff valve just enoughto allow inlet pressure to build up slowly in the regulator untilit is fully pressured.CAUTION: During start-up, a pressure gauge must be usedon the regulator outlet pressure and carefullywatched. While inlet pressure builds up, outletpressure must not exceed set-point by more than1 psi. If outlet pressure begins to exceed set-pointby more than 1 psi, close the inlet shutoff valve.This indicates the regulator is not closing properly.Check and make necessary corrections before proceedingwith start-up.If regulator outlet pressure exceeds set-point bymore than the pressure noted, refer to “MaximumEmergency Pressures”, Page 18 for instructions.D. Check installation for leaks.E. Slowly open the outlet shutoff valve to allow a small flow (approximately1000 SCFH). Make sure the flow of gas doesnot create a hazard.NOTE: If piping downstream of outlet shutoff valve is pressured,see “CAUTION” under B.F. With gas flowing, check for correct inlet and outlet pressures.It may be necessary to further open the inlet shutoff valve tomaintain full inlet pressure.G. Make sure the regulator closes tight (tight lock-up). To do this,reduce flow to zero by slowly closing the outlet shutoff valve.Outlet pressure should not exceed set-point by more than6" w.c.H. Fully open inlet and outlet shutoff valves. Do this slowly andcarefully. Watch pressure gauges.I. Complete start-up by making sure there are no leaks.NOTE• Do not exceed the regulator’s pressure ratings. Theregulator outlet has a lower pressure rating than theinlet. Do not expose the regulator outlet or control lineto inlet pressure.Regulator with external control may be used as anupstream monitor or upstream regulator in a monitorset. The control line must connect into the outlet pipingdownstream of the downstream regulator.• If the regulator is to be moved to another location,make sure its construction is compatible with the pressureand flow conditions.Temperature LimitsThe Model 121 Regulator can be used for flowing temperaturesfrom –20°F to 150°F.Buried ServiceThe Model 121 Regulator is not recommended for buried service.


Set Point AdjustmentA. The 121 is factory adjusted as specified on the order. To changethe set-point, readjust as follows:1. Remove the top cap 1.2. Adjust set-point with adjustment button 3, 3a or 6. Turn clockwiseto increase and counterclockwise to decrease theoutlet pressure.NOTE: a. Only make this adjustment when gas is actuallyflowing through the regulator. The flow should besmall (approximately 1000 SCFH). Do not adjustwhen the regulator is closed and there is no flow.To Change Springb. Do not increase the set-point beyond the upperlimit of the outlet pressure range for the spring 9(refer to spring tables, Page 3).c. Always check the outlet pressure with a pressuregauge while adjusting the set-point.3. When adjustment is complete, replace top cap 1. Screw itsecurely into place. Leaving it off could cause unstable regulatoroperation.A. The outlet pressure ranges of spring 9 are given in the tableson Pages 3 and 4. To change the spring:1. Remove top cap 1.CAUTIONIt is the user’s responsibility to assure that allregulator vents and/or vent lines exhaust to anon-hazardous location away from any potentialsources of ignition. Where vent linesare used, it is the user’s responsibility to assurethat each regulator is individually ventedand that common vent lines are not used.2. Unscrew and remove adjustment button 3, 3a or 6 by turningcounterclockwise, and remove spring 9.3. Insert new spring. Make sure it is positioned correctly at thebottom before replacing adjustment button 3, 3a or 6.4. Adjust for the desired outlet pressure per previous section“Set Point Adjustment”.5. When adjustment is complete, replace top cap 1. Screw itsecurely into place. Leaving it off could result in unstableregulator operation.6. New spring range should be marked on regulator. If old springrange appears on regulator, it should be removed.ShutdownCAUTIONThe diaphragm case vent must be positionedto protect against flooding, drain water, iceformation, traffic, tampering, etc. The ventmust be protected against nest buildinganimals, bees, insects, etc. to minimize thechances for foreign material from collectingin the vent side of the regulator diaphragm.A. To take the regulator out of service, close the inlet stop valvefirst. Close it carefully. Then close the outlet stop valve.Before working on regulator, read the next section “GeneralServicing Instructions” and the applicable servicing instructions.CAUTIONTurn gas on very slowly. If an outlet stop valve isused, it should be opened first. Do not overloaddiaphragm with a sudden surge of inlet pressure.Monitor the outlet pressure during start-up toprevent an outlet pressure overload.General Servicing InstructionsA. Before any disassembly of the regulator make sure it is completelydepressured. Pressure must be fully released from theinlet, the outlet and the control line connection. Failure to adequatelydepressure could result in serious personal injury.B. Carefully note the location and position of all disassembledparts to be certain reassembly is correct. Inspect each partcarefully and replace any that are worn or damaged or otherwiseunsatisfactory.C.

Servicing – General Instructions1. Make sure the regulator is entirely depressured before servicing.2. Carefully note location and position of all disassembled parts to becertain reassembly is correct. Inspect each one carefully and replacethose that are worn or damaged or otherwise unsatisfactory.3. A moderate application of lubricant to O-ring 13 will help assure freestem movement and a tight seal. Similar application of lubricant tothe other O-rings or Tetraseals will help assure theirtightness.Do not use petroleum base lubricants.4. Bolted connections should be tightened evenly and firmly.Carefully tighten diaphragms into place. Bolts must be tight enoughto prevent leakage, but not so tight that the diaphragm material iscrushed or damaged.5. Upon completion of servicing, make certain that regulator installationis entirely free of leaks.To Service Valve (15)1. Remove bolts 38 and remove bottom cap 37 and Tetraseal 32.2. Remove retaining ring 16a. Use Truarc 0200 pliers, Invensys PartNo. 1190646.3. Remove both halves of valve holder 16b.4. Remove valve 15 (wave washer 14 will probably also come off...donot lose it).– To reassemble, replace parts in reverse sequence.To Service Main Diaphragm (11d)1. Remove top cap 1, and release and remove adjustment 3. On highpressure Model remove cap 1a, release adjustment 3a, and removecover 5 and button 7a. Mark or measure position of adjustment 3 or3a. Use this to return adjustment to this setting during reassembly.2. Remove spring 9.3. Remove bolts 22 and upper case 21.4. Rotate diaphragm assembly 11 counterclockwise (this unscrews 11hfrom 12d) and remove.5. To disassemble diaphragm assembly, remove nut 11a. Carefullynote location and position of all parts to be certain of correct reassembly.Abrasive side of emery cloth washers face againstdiaphragm.– To reassemble, replace parts in reverse sequence.Make the screwed connection between 11h and 12d loose byapproximately 1 /2 turn. To do this, carefully rotate diaphragmassembly 11 clockwise until this screwed connection bottoms (donot jam it together). Then, back-off diaphragm assembly 11 counterclockwiseapproximately 1 /2 turn...this is very important...the 11h to12d screwed connection must not be tight.To Service Orifice (19)1. Remove valve 15 per section “To Service Valve (15)”.2. Remove main diaphragm assembly 11 per steps 1 through 4 “ToService Main Diaphragm (11d)”.3. Remove seal diaphragm assembly 12 per steps 3 and 4 under “ToService Seal Diaphragm (12b)”.4. Remove retaining ring 19a. Use Truarc 0600 pliers, Invensys PartNo. 1190648.5. Remove orifice 19 through top opening.– To reassemble, replace parts in reverse sequence.(On reassembly, be sure that 19a is fully seated in its groove. Also,beveled edge of 19a faces downward toward bottom cap 37.)To Service Seal Diaphragm (12b)1. Remove valve 15 per section “To Service Valve (15)”.2. Remove main diaphragm assembly 11 per steps 1 through 4 “ToService Main Diaphragm (11d)”.3. Remove bolts 25 and lower diaphragm case 24.4. Remove bolts 29 and centerpiece 27, and then remove sealdiaphragm assembly 12.5. To disassemble 12, unscrew piston 12a from stem 12d. Use aspanner wrench in notch in skirt of piston (this can also be done byinserting a standard 7 /32" Allen wrench in the notch).– To reassemble, replace parts in reverse sequence.Make certain that fabric side of seal diaphragm 12b faces upwardand “rubber” side faces downward toward body.Do not pinch loop in seal diaphragm 12b between ring 33 andcenterpiece 27. Also, rounded edge of 33 faces upward towardseal diaphragm 12b.Periodic Inspection: Regulators are pressure control devices withnumerous moving parts subject to wear that is dependent uponparticular operation conditions. To assure continuous satisfactoryoperation, a periodic inspection schedule must be adhered to withthe frequency of inspections, determined by the severity of serviceand applicable laws and regulations.10

Remove top cap 1.2. Release adjustment 3 (count the turns of adjustment 3 and use forreturning the adjustment to this setting during reassembly).3. Remove bolts 10 and housing 5 (3" and 4" 121-16 only).4. Remove spring 9.5. Remove bolts 22 and upper case 21.6. Rotate diaphragm assembly 11 counterclockwise (this unscrews11h from 12d) and remove.7. To disassemble diaphragm assembly, remove nut 11a. Carefullynote location and position of all parts to be certain of correct reassembly.Abrasive side of emery cloth washers face againstdiaphragm.– To reassemble, replace parts in reverse sequence.Make the screwed connection between 11h and 12d loose byapproximately 1 /2 turn. To do this, carefully rotate diaphragmassembly 11 clockwise until this screwed connection bottoms (donot jam it together). Then, back-off diaphragm assembly 11 counterclockwiseapproximately 1 /2 turn...this is very important...the 11h to12d screwed connection must not be tight.To Service Orifice (19)1. Remove valve 15 per section “To Service Valve (15)”.2. Remove seal diaphragm assembly 12 per step 2 under “To ServiceSeal Diaphragm (12b)”.3. Remove retaining ring 19a. Use Truarc 0600 pliers, Invensys PartNo. 1190648.4. Remove ring 33 and orifice 19 through top opening.– To reassemble, replace parts in reverse sequence.(On reassembly, be sure that 19a is fully seated in its groove. Also,beveled edge of 19a faces downward toward bottom cap 37).To Service Seal Diaphragm (12b)1. Remove valve 15 per section “To Service Valve (15)”.2. Remove bolts 29 and upper case assembly. Then remove sealdiaphragm assembly 12.3. To disassemble 12, unscrew piston 12a from stem 12d. Use aspanner wrench in notch in skirt of piston (this can also be done byinserting a standard 7 /32" Allen wrench in the notch).– To reassemble, replace parts in reverse sequence.Make certain that fabric side of seal diaphragm 12b faces upwardand “rubber” side faces downward toward body.Do not pinch loop in seal diaphragm 12b between ring 33 and centerpiece27. Also, rounded edge of 33 faces upward toward sealdiaphragm 12b.Make the screwed connection between 11h and 12d loose byapproximately 1 /2 turn. To do this, carefully rotate seal diaphragmassembly 12 clockwise until this screwed connection bottoms (donot jam it together). Then, back-off seal diaphragm assembly 12counterclockwise approximately 1 /2 turn...this is very important...the11h to 12d screwed connection must not be tight.14


RM-1399 Rev. 6General Safety Instructions forGas RegulatorsKeep this sheet for future reference.


-I 8.Check the regulator "set-point" and "lock-up" pressure. (Set-point is the outlet pressure the regulator is adjusted to deliver.Lock-up is the pressure where tight shutoff is achieved).IMPORTANT: During start-up, a pressure gauge must beconnected to the outlet piping between the regulator outlet andthe downstream shutoff valve to closely monitor the outletpressure. When checking the regulator for set-point and lock-up,provision must be made to PERMIT FREE FLOW of gas beyondthe outlet valve.The regulator set-point is factory adjusted as specified on theorder. Set-point should be checked with small gas flow (10% ofmaximum regulator capacity or less). Open the valve downstreamof the regulator before turning on gas. Slowly open theinlet valve while monitoring the outlet pressure gauge. Small flowshould be set by adjusting the outlet valve.A WARNING: Always closely monitor the outlet pressure gaugeduring start-up while opening or closing valves and makingadjustments. If the outlet pressure continues to increase abovethe specified lock-up pressure, open the downstream valve todischarge the excess pressure and close the inlet valve.Only adjust set-point when gas is flowing through the regulator.DO NOT adjust if regulator is locked-up (tight shutoff).IMPORTANT: Small flow during set-point adjustment is particularlyimportant where set-point is in the top third of the springrange. Large flow could result in over-stressing the spring or lossof lock-up from the spring compressing solid. If the set-pointadjustment must be made at large flow (60% to 100% of maximumregulator capacity) and set-point is in upper third of springrange, use the next higher range spring.After set-point has been determined to be correct, check for lockupby slowly closing the outlet valve. Again closely monitor theregulator outlet pressure gauge. Regulator must be fully capableof tight lock-up. If outlet pressure continues to rise above thelock-up pressure, open the downstream valve to dischargeexcess pressure and close the inlet shutoff valve. If the pressuregoes above lock-up the regulator is not closing properly. Makethe necessary corrections before resuming start-up.9. Prompt attention is essential if there is regulator trouble, ifgas leaks from the vent or elsewhere from the regulator, or ifleaks develop in the piping. Failure to shut down the regulatormay cause serious hazards.10. The outlet of the vent piping must allow for the free andunobstructed passage of air and gas.The diaphragm case vent must be positioned to protect againstflooding, drain water, ice formation, traffic, tampering, etc. Thevent must be protected against nest building animals, bees,insects, etc. to prevent vent blockage and minimize the chancesfor foreign material from collecting in the vent side of theregulator diaphragm.A It is the user's responsibility to assure that all regulatorvents andor vent lines exhaust to a non-hazardous locationaway from any potential sources of ignition. Where ventlines are used, it is the user's responsibility to assure thateach regulator is individually vented and that common ventlines are not used.MONITOR REGULATORS ANDEXTERNAL CONTROL LINESWhen bypassing a regulator with an external control line, thecontrol line valve must be closed before the bypass valve isopened. Failure to do so could result in the diaphragm beingexposed to the inlet pressure.USE WITH OTHER GASES1. Do not use Equimeter regulators on corrosive gases unlessauthorized by Equimeter for a specific corrosive condition.2. Where the gas is propane or butane (LPG) and theregulator has an internal relief valve (IRV), special care isrequired with the regulator vent. Because propane and butaneare heavier than air, they do not disperse readily in the atmosphere.Instead, they tend to collect in low places. Since largevolumes can discharge from the regulator vent at times ofemergency, care must be taken to pipe any such discharge toatmosphere at a safe place to prevent any gathering or migrationof explosive mixtures in low areas.GENERAL INSPECTION ANDSERVICE INSTRUCTIONS1. lnspect the regulator periodically to make sure it is in satisfactoryworking condition. Establish the frequency of inspectionon the basis of severity of service and applicable laws andregulations. As a minimum recommendation, pressure regulatingand limiting equipment should be inspected at intervals notexceeding 15 months, but at least once each calendar year.2. If the regulator is to be moved to another location, makesure its construction is compatible with the new pressure andflow conditions.AwARNING: Before any disassembly of the regulator, make sureit is completely depressurized. Pressure must be fully releasedfrom the inlet, the outlet and any control line connections. Failureto adequately depressurize could result in serious injury.3. Carefully note the location and position of all disassembledparts to be certain reassembly is correct. lnspect each partcarefully and replace any that are worn, damaged or otherwiseunsatisfactory.4. Adjustment screw lubrication should be checked wheneverthe regulator is serviced. Make sure the threads are fully coatedwith lubricant. Where there is evidence of thread wear, such asloose fit or excessive sideplay, the worn parts must be replaced.AwmNING: Failure from worn threads can result in seriouspersonal injury. Even at 10 psig outlet pressure, the forceexerted on the adjustment screw by spring compression canbe great. Therefore, adjustment screw lubrication and threadcondition must be given careful attention.5. Upon completion of servicing, make certain that the regulatorinstallation is entirely free of leaks.Equimeter Incorporated805 Liberty BoulevardDuBois, Pennsylvania 15801(8 14) 37 1-8000NUPP8198250MCOPYRIGHT0 1998 EQUIMETER.
