3.
Remove the belt by gently lifting the old belt over one of
the pulleys.
4.
Install the new belt by gently sliding the belt over both
pulleys and then sliding the motor and plate away from the
fan housing until proper tension is achieved.
CAUTION
EQUIPMENT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this CAUTION can result in premature
wear and damage to equipment.
Do not use a screwdriver or a pry bar to place the new V-
belt in the pulley groove. This can cause stress on the V-belt
and the pulley resulting in premature wear on the V-belt
and damage to the pulley.
5.
Check the alignment of the pulleys, adjust if necessary.
6.
Tighten all bolts and torque to 65 to 70 in.-lb (7.4 to
7.9 Nm).
7.
Check the tension after a few hours of runtime and read-
just as required.
ADJUSTABLE-PITCH PULLEY ON MOTOR
The motor pulley is an adjustable-pitch type that allows a ser-
vicer to implement changes in the fan wheel speed to match as-
installed ductwork systems. The pulley consists of a fixed
flange side that faces the motor (secured to the motor shaft)
and a movable flange side that can be rotated around the fixed
flange side that increases or reduces the pitch diameter of this
driver pulley. (See Fig. 10.)

MOTOR PULLEY
Fig. 10 — Supply-Fan Pulley Adjustment
As the pitch diameter is changed by adjusting the position of
the movable flange, the centerline on this pulley shifts laterally
(along the motor shaft). This creates a requirement for a re-
alignment of the pulleys after any adjustment of the movable
flange. Reset the belt tension after each realignment.
Inspect the condition of the motor pulley for signs of wear.
Glazing of the belt contact surfaces and erosion on these sur-
faces are signs of improper belt tension and/or belt slippage.
Replace pulley if wear is excessive.
CHANGING THE FAN SPEED:
1.
Shut off unit power supply. Use proper lockout/tag-out
procedures.
2.
Loosen belt by loosening fan motor mounting nuts. (See
Fig. 8.)
3.
Loosen movable pulley flange setscrew. (See Fig. 10.)
4.
Screw movable flange toward fixed flange to increase
speed and away from fixed flange to decrease speed.
Increasing fan speed increases load on motor. Do not
exceed the maximum specified speed.

5.
Set movable flange at nearest keyway of pulley hub.
Tighten setscrew and torque to 65 to 70 in.-lb (7.4 to
7.9 Nm).
ALIGNING BLOWER AND MOTOR PULLEYS:
1.
Loosen blower pulley setscrews.
2.
Slide blower pulley along blower shaft. Make angular
alignment by loosening motor mounting plate front and
rear bolts.
3.
Tighten blower pulley setscrews and motor mounting
bolts. Torque bolts to 65 to 70 in.-lb (7.4 to 7.9 Nm).
4.
Recheck belt tension.
BEARINGS
The fan system uses bearings featuring concentric split locking
collars. A Torx T-25 socket head cap screw is used to tighten
the locking collars. Tighten the locking collar by holding it
tightly against the inner race of the bearing. Tighten the socket
head cap screw. Torque cap screw to 65 to 70 in.-lb (7.4 to
7.9 Nm). See Fig. 11. Check the condition of the motor pulley
for signs of wear. Glazing of the belt contact surfaces and ero-
sion on these surfaces are signs of improper belt tension and/or
belt slippage. Pulley replacement may be necessary.

STAGED AIR VOLUME CONTROL — 2 SPEED
FAN WITH VARIABLE FREQUENCY DRIVE

2-Speed Indoor Fan Motor System

The 2-speed indoor fan motor system utilizes a fan speed control
board and Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) to automatically ad-
just the indoor fan motor speed in sequence with the unit's venti-
lation, cooling, and heating operation. Per ASHRAE 90.1 stan-
dard, during the first stage of cooling operation the 2-speed in-
door fan motor system will adjust the fan motor to provide 66%
of the design airflow rate for the unit. When the call for the sec-
ond stage of cooling is required, the 2-speed indoor fan motor
system will allow the design airflow rate for the unit established
(100%). During the heating mode, the 2-speed indoor fan motor
system will allow total design airflow rate (100%) operation.
During ventilation mode, the 2-speed indoor fan motor system
will operate the fan motor at 66%.
