Operation

WARNING
TOXIC HAZARDS! Do not use an energy wheel in an
application where the exhaust air is contaminated with
harmful toxins or biohazards, which could result in death or
serious injury.
WARNING
HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE! Disconnect the electrical and
remote disconnects before servicing. Do not open the service
access doors while the unit is operating. Failure to disconnect
all electrical power before servicing could result in death or
serious injury.
WARNING
ROTATING PARTS! Disconnect all electrical and remote
disconnects before servicing. Secure drive sheaves to ensure
rotor cannot freewheel. Failure to disconnect all electrical
power before servicing could result in death or serious injury.
WARNING
Keep hands away from the rotating wheel! Contact with the
rotating wheel can cause physical injury.
Energy Wheel Start-Up
1
Turn the energy wheel clockwise (as viewed from the pulley
side) by hand to verify that the wheel turns freely through a
full rotation.
2
Confirm that all wheel segments are fully engaged in the
wheel frame and that the segment retainers are completely
fastened (see Figure 4).
3
With hands and objects away from moving parts, activate the
wheel and confirm that the wheel rotates. Correct rotation
direction is clockwise as viewed from the pulley side.
4
Start and stop the wheel several times to confirm the seal
adjustment and proper belt tracking on the wheel rim. Correct
belt tracking is approximately midway between the seal plate
and the outer edge of the rim (see Figure 5).
5
If the wheel has difficulty starting, turn off the power and
inspect the wheel for excessive interference between the
wheel surface and the four diameter seals. To correct inter-
ference, loosen the diameter seal adjusting screws and back
