Page 6: Notes For Pacemakers And Defibrillators
1.4 Notes for Pacemakers and Defibrillators Afag vibration conveyors are tested in accordance with regulation 15 of the German Statuto- ry Accident Insurance Association [Deutsche Gesetzliche Unfallversicherung, DGUV] (previ- ously BGV B11 of German Accident Prevention Regulations). The permissible values of ex- posure area 2 are not exceeded, therefore no measures are required pursuant to Section 4 (2) of the DGUV regulation 15. -
Page 7: Function Description
2.2 Function description Afag BF bowl feeders use a vibration force compensation system based on the counter- vibration principle. In this case a utility weight (1) vibrates exactly opposite to a counter- weight (2). The utility weight is essentially formed by the mounting plate, the bowl and the magnetic anchor, the counterweight is formed by the counter ring and the vibration magnet. -

4 Operating instructions 4.1 Standard operation No further settings are required for standard operation once the control is switched on. An uninterrupted operation only requires the re-filling of the feeder bowl. CAUTION The bulk material must be filled into the middle of the conveyor bowl. - Page 15 5. If the transport speed only increases when the screw is loosened and does not decrease again even when the screw is fully loosened, the drive unit is too rigidly tuned. In this case, remove a leaf spring and retune the frequency. You must re- move as many leaf springs as necessary until the properties described in point 4) are achieved.
