Voltage, Hertz,

and Phase

Step 1 Check the Voltage

Before starting the unit, compare the supplied voltage, hertz, and phase with the unit and motor’s nameplate
information.

Step 2 Check the Blower Rotation

Open the blower access door and run the blower momentarily to determine the rotation. Arrows are placed on
the blower scroll to indicate the proper direction.

IMPORTANT!

If the blower is rotating in the wrong direction, the unit will move some air, but will not perform as

designed. Be sure to perform a visual inspection to guarantee the correct blower rotation.

WARNING!

Disconnect and lock-out all power and gas before

performing any maintenance or service to the

unit. Failure to do so could result in serious injury

or death and damage to equipment.

Pre Start-Up Check

Rotate the fan wheel by hand and make sure no parts
are rubbing. Check the V-belt drive for proper
alignment and tension (a guide for proper belt tension
and alignment is provided in the belt maintenance
section). Check fasteners, set screws and locking
collars on the fan, bearings, drive, motor base and
accessories for tightness. Remove any shipping
fasteners from the blower vibration isolators.

NOTE!

To reverse the rotation on three phase units, disconnect and lock-out the power, then interchange any

two power leads.

NOTE!

To reverse the rotation on single phase units, disconnect and lock-out the power, then rewire the

motor per the manufacturer’s instructions.
