Platform Installation: The platform, ladder, handrail, and bracing are to be installed as
shown on the general arrangement drawing. Fan platforms are mounted onto bolt-on
mounting gussets that attach to the sidewall.

Explosion Vents (where applicable):

1. Figure 6 – The explosion vents are attached with a minimum of standard

steel fasteners for shipment. THESE MUST BE REMOVED and the
PVC Bolts installed that are included in the shipment. Extreme care should
be exercised when installing the PVC Bolts as they are very fragile. A
gasket is factory installed that will provide a seal between the vent panel
and the frame. DO NOT use silicone sealer or any other sealer or adhesive
at this joint as this will prevent the vent from operating properly.

2. The area around the vents should be clear of any personnel or obstructions

to prevent injury or damage.

Electrical: A 230/460 volt 3 phase 60 Hertz circuit is required to operate the dust
collector’s ½ HP or 1 HP sweep arm drive motor as well as the reverse air fan. Please
refer to the general arrangement drawing for the exact type and HP of motor used on the
reverse air fan.

Gauges: Check the pressure differential gauge to make sure that the high-pressure tap is
connected below the tube sheet and the low-pressure tap is connected above the tube
sheet. Verify that the gauge have been zeroed prior to connection when it is in its
permanent mounting position.

Reverse Air Fan & Drive Motor Assembly: Refer to the figures on the following pages
to assemble the components for the reverse air fan and drive. Fan – Locate the pieces and
assemble as shown. Drive Assembly - Slide the motor assembly up or down to align the
gear reducer shaft with the drive shaft. Assure that the bolts in the horizontal slide base
are tight when doing this or the chain coupling will bind when these are tightened. Use
the horizontal motor slide base to assist in the assembly of the chain coupling. Assure that
the chain coupling is not binding and is fully engaged on each shaft. Test for proper
operation of the sweep arm with the fan off.

Auxiliary Equipment: All auxiliary equipment must be installed according to its
manufacturer’s specifications and interlocked with the entire system as needed. Direction
of rotation of each item must be checked prior to start-up of the entire system.
