Installation
Only qualified personnel are authorized to install and operate this equipment.
Note:
Installation shall be in accordance with local regulations, standards and established
safety practices. Read and understand the instructions before installing, operating or
maintaining the equipment.
1.
Align the in-feed section of the weighfeeder with the discharge of the feed device.
Prevent twisting or misalignment that could induce stress on the weighing section.
2.
Securely fasten the unit to a rigid, level structure. Use a level for verification and
shim as necessary. Prevent any twisting of the frame that may affect weighfeeder
performance.
3.
Construct the necessary support framework to provide a sturdy, rigid base. Vibration
isolators are recommended if the location is subject to moderate or heavy vibration.
4.
Inlet and discharge will not support load.
If your system has a permanently lubricated gear motor, disregard Step 5.
Note:
5.
Check the gear reducer oil level. See the gear reducer manual for further details on
maintenance.
6.
The weighfeeder in-feed and discharge flanges are not meant to support any load.
The connecting equipment should be self supporting.
7.
Flexible in-feed connections are REQUIRED for all applications where there is
expected high deflection due to bin loading. Flexible discharge connections may
also be considered if there are concerns regarding shifting of down stream chute
work.
8.
Connect the proper electric supply to the motor and/or motor controller, following
the interwiring diagram supplied with this manual. The AC/DC motor controller (if
present) must be grounded to minimize noise to the electronic integrator. Refer to
the applicable wiring diagram to make all electrical connections between the
electronic integrator and the weighfeeder.
9.
Before starting the machine, make a final check to see that the conveyor belt is free
from all tools and foreign objects.
