    • Use only personnel trained in the repair of Invicta Vibrators. As a point of interest, the L Series model designation includes an indication of maximum centrifugal force output. Actual force is 100 times the centrifugal force figure stated. Example:...
  • Page 4: Installation

    INSTALLATION Mechanical Ensure shaft rotates freely by hand prior to mounting. This will require removing one end cover to access the out-of-balance (O.B.) weights. Unless otherwise requested, vibrators are supplied with the O.B. weights set to give a maximum centrifugal force output. To adjust O.B. weights to the required force output, follow these steps and refer to Figure 1.

  • Page 9: Maintenance

    MAINTENANCE Routine Maintenance Routine maintenance deals predominantly with the proper lubrication of the vibrator bearings. The lubrication intervals and amounts vary greatly depending on the vibrator model and are further affected by outside factors such as duty cycle, ambient temperatures and operating environment.
  • Page 10: Models Bl 40 To Bl 75

    Due to the mechanical tolerances and specific reassembly procedures involved with these vibrator repairs, it is recommended that vibrators requiring full overhaul be shipped to Hindon Corporation. This is to ensure that factory qualified service and O.E.M. quality replacement parts will be used.

    NOTE: The above tests can be performed with instruments such as resistance measuring devices and/or a megger. If sections 6.1.1 and 6.1.2 have been performed and vibrator is still inoperable, please contact Hindon Corporation for further assistance. Vibrator starts but will not continue to run Verify correct motor starter operation: Verify correct "heater"...

    If vibrator surface temperature is in excess of 185° F. Record ambient temperature and advise Hindon (external fan cooling may be needed to cool the vibrator and reduce the risk of failure). Verify section 6.3. steps 1 thru 4.
  • Page 14: Noisy Vibrator

    Noisy vibrator NOTE: Vibrating machines are inherently louder than industrial motors. Check for loose or failed vibrator mounting fasteners. Check for loose end cover fasteners and internal fasteners. Check for loose O.B. weight clamping bolts. CAUTION: Always ensure electrical power is de-energized prior to handling rotor shaft with hands.
