Procedure for adjusting belt tension:
1. Loosen six nuts (top and bottom) A.
2. Adjust by turning (B).
3. Never loosen nuts (C).
4. Use belt tension checker to apply a perpendicular
force to one belt at the midpoint of the span as
shown. Deflection distance of 4mm (5/32") is
obtained.
To determine the deflection distance from normal
position, use a straight edge from sheave to sheave as
reference line. The recommended deflection force is as
follows:
Tension new belts at the max. deflection force
recommended for the belt section. Check the belt
tension at least two times during the first 24 hours of
operation. Any retensioning should fall between the min.
and max. deflection force values.
5. After adjusting re-tighten nuts (A).

CFM Static Pressure and Power-Altitude and Temperature
Corrections
The information below should be used to assist in application of
product when being applied at altitudes at or exceeding 1000
feet above sea level.
The air flow rates listed in the standard blower performance
tables are based on standard air at sea level. As the altitude or
temperature increases, the density of air decreases. In order to
use the indoor blower tables for high altitude applications,
certain corrections are necessary.
A centrifugal fan is a "constant volume" device. This means
that, if the rpm remains constant, the CFM delivered is the
same regardless of the density of the air. However, since the air
at high altitude is less dense, less static pressure will be
generated and less power will be required than a similar
application at sea level. Air density correction factors are shown
in Table 16 and Figure 21.
