General information • NTK NF: low frequency models • NTK HF: high frequency models The pneumatic linear vibrators of the series NTK comply with the EC Ma- Directives / chinery Directive 2006/42/EC. standards observed In particular, the standard EN ISO 12100 has been observed. Instruction The following instruction and warning symbols are used in these instruc- and warning...
Safety Safety The NTK are intended for generating linear vibrations. Intended use General applications are: loosening, conveying, sorting, compacting, sepa- rating bulk materials and reducing friction. NTK are used for emptying bunkers, as drives for conveyor troughs, sieves and vibrating tables. The NTK are designed for installation in machines and may only be put into operation, if it has been assured that the complete machine complies with the regulations of the machinery directive.

Design and function Design and function Design Cover Piston Housing Additional oscillating weight (optional) Air inlet/grommet Chamber A Air outlet/silencer Chamber B The NTK generate linear vibrations. Function The vibration is generated by a freely oscillating, self-reversing piston. Both weights, the piston (5) with an additional oscillating weight (6) on the one hand, the housing (2) and the weight to which it is attached on the other, oscillate in relation to their total weights against each other.
Transport and storage Transport and storage Special conditions of transport are not required. Transport conditions Use suitable lifting equipment to move the NTK 85 E and the NTK 110 E. A transport lug can be screwed into Be careful the piston or into the housing (M 20 when lifting and lowering thread) when lifting.
Installation Installation Observe the safety instructions in chap. Safety, from page 5 on. Standard- installation Maintenance unit Additional weight (optional) 3/2-way valve Special circuit diagrams are available on request. Technical data Information regarding tightening torques for screws as well as cross sec- tions for valves and hoses can be found in Ch.

Installation or liquid sealant. Notice: Do not use sealing tape for the screw con- nections. Do not use longer screw threads for the air supply than in- tended (e.g. no pipes with external thread). Otherwise, the housing may become deformed and the piston may jam. Fasten the compressed air supply securely.

Installation Checklist Check that the following steps have been carried out: installation Compliance with permissible ambient temperatures ensured? Central fastening screw with suitable lock washer installed? Screw size and tightening torques observed? Additional medium-strength liquid safety agent for securing the screw connections used? Maintenance unit (filter, regulator, mist lubricator*), valve and supply line installed?
Start-up and operation Start-up and operation Observe the safety instructions in chap. Safety, from page 5 on. Please refer to chap. Technical data, page 7 for permissible operating Permissible conditions. operating conditions Setting the The frequency of the NTK should be set with the pressure regulator of the frequency maintenance unit.
Page 20
Start-up and operation Checklist Check that the following steps have been carried out: start-up Screw connections checked before start-up? Desired frequency set on pressure regulator? Desired amplitude set by throttling the exhaust air? Mist lubricator set? After one hour of operation: Hose supply connections as well as fastening screws checked, retightened, if necessary? Then follow the maintenance plan.
Maintenance and servicing Maintenance and servicing Observe the safety instructions in chap. Safety, from page 5 on. If necessary clean the surface of the NTK with a moist cloth to remove Cleaning dust deposits. To clean the NTK with pressurised water, proceed as follows: Close the supply air and exhaust air openings.
Troubleshooting Troubleshooting In the case of malfunctions of the NTK proceed as follows: Malfunctions and causes Malfunction Possible cause Corrective action No start Silencer polluted Clean silencer. Compressed air Check if there is enough pressure at the NTK. Check supply valve.
