  • Page 33: Atomizer Chamber Overview

    LPX SEED TREATER ATOMIZER CHAMBER OVERVIEW The atomizer chamber consists of a patented design which disperses treatment evenly to each seed. A motor drives the atomizer head at approximately 1725 RPM’s. As treatment is being pumped into the atomizer chamber, it drops into the atomizer head. The centrifugal force of the spinning head forces the treatment to be sprayed out through a screen covering in all 360 degrees.

  • Page 34: Rotating Drum Overview

    LPX SEED TREATER ROTATING DRUM The rotating drum comes in options of 5, 6 and 8 feet and accepts treated seed through the opening on the hopper end. As seed passes through the length of the drum it is tumbled, producing accurate and uniform seed coating. The seed then exits the seed treater out the discharge end of the machine.

  • Page 36 LPX SEED TREATER TREATING SEED The Illustration below shows how seed passes through the atomizing chamber. The red represents treatment being dispensed to the seed as it passes through the chamber. After the seed passes through the atomizer, it goes into the drum where the coating process is completed.

    LPH800 TREATER Section Safety Instructions Every year accidents in the work place maim, kill and injure people. Although it may be impossible to prevent all accidents, with the right combination of training, operating practices, safety devices and operator vigilance, the number of accidents can be significantly reduced.
  • Page 155 LPH800 TREATER Mandatory Lockout Power Symbol. Disconnect, lockout and tagout electrical and other energy sources before inspecting, cleaning or performing maintenance on this panel. International Safety Alert Symbol. The exclamation point (!) surrounded by a yellow triangle indicates that an injury hazard exists.
  • Page 156 LPH800 TREATER LOCKOUT / TAGOUT PROCEDURES Lockout/Tagout is the placement of a lock/tag on an energy isolating device in accordance with an established procedure. When taking equipment out of service to perform maintenance or repair work, always follow the lockout/tagout procedures as outlined in ANSI Z344.1 and/or OSHA Standard 1910.147.
  • Page 157 LPH800 TREATER YOU are responsible for the SAFE operation and maintenance of your USC, LLC equipment . YOU must ensure that you and anyone else who is going to operate, maintain or work around the equipment be familiar with the operating and maintenance procedures and related SAFETY information contained in this manual.
  • Page 158 LPH800 TREATER 4. Provide a fire extinguisher for use in case of an accident. Store in a highly visible place. 5. Do not allow children, spectators or bystanders within hazard area of machine. 6. Wear appropriate protective gear. This includes but is not limited A hard hat ...
  • Page 159 LPH800 TREATER PLACEMENT SAFETY 1. Move only with the appropriate equipment 2. Stay away from overhead power lines when moving equipment. Electrocution can occur without direct contact. 3. Be familiar with machine hazard area. If anyone enters hazard areas, shut down machine immediately.
  • Page 160 2. Replace safety labels that are missing or have become illegible. 3. Replaced parts that displayed a safety label should also display the current label. 4. Replacement safety labels are available. Contact USC at (785) 431-7900 . How to Install Safety Labels: Be sure that the installation area is clean and dry.

    Discharge TREATER SET - UP The following steps outline the initial set-up of your USC Seed Treating system: 1. Clear the area of bystanders, especially small children, before moving. 2. Be sure there is enough clearance from overhead obstructions and power lines or other equipment to move the machine into its working position.
  • Page 162 LPH800 TREATER TREATER SET - UP 4. Remove any boxes and cords from the drum of the treater. 5. Install the four provided legs and set up on a level surface, preferably concrete. When all four legs are mounted in the same pin hole, the seed treater has a slight slope to allow seed to travel through the machine.
  • Page 163 The USC system must be connected to the same electrical requirements as specified in the main control panel on the power requirement tag (right), or the electrical schematic shipped with the piece of equipment.

  • Page 167 LPH800 TREATER SUPPLY HOPPER The supply hopper has a capacity of approximately 7 units of seed. The hopper supplies seed to the atomizing chamber where seed first comes in contact with the treatment. The seed flow is controlled by an adjustable seed gate. Refer to the Calibration section page 30 for instructions on adjusting the seed flow gate.

  • Page 168: Rotating Drum

    LPH800 TREATER ROTATING DRUM The rotating drum comes is six feet long and accepts treated seed through the opening on the hopper end. As seed passes through the length of the drum it is tumbled, producing accurate and uniform seed coating. The seed then exits the seed treater out the discharge end of the machine.
  • Page 169 LPH800 TREATER MIX TANK The LPH800 Treater includes a 30 gallon stainless steel chemical mix tank. This mix tank will have electric drive agitation that is turned on or off from a manual switch. The agitator should be running at all times when treatment is present in the mix tank to keep the chemical mixed and in a suspended state.

  • Page 170: Peristaltic Pump Heads And Motor

    LPH800 TREATER PERISTALTIC PUMP HEADS AND MOTOR The LPH800 Treater utilizes a variable speed peristaltic pump and special norprene pump tubing for liquid metering. The pump comes equipped with a peristaltic pump head. Liquid will only come into contact with the inside diameter of the pump tubing and not the pump.

  • Page 173 LPH800 TREATER Proper calibration of the liquid system is critical to achieve a proper granular/chemical mixture. Use the calibration procedures on pages 32 through 35 to determine liquid flow rate. Emptying the remaining liquid can be done by using the reverse function on the control panel.

    LPH800 TREATER PUMP #2 CALIBRATION The following steps illustrate how to calibrate pump #2 on an LP series seed treater. A stop watch and measuring cup will be needed in the calibration process. 1. Lock down the pump tubing in the Pump #2 pump head. (page 22) 2.
  • Page 183 LPH800 TREATER PUMP #2 CALIBRATION 11. As soon as one minute is up, position the Calibration Valve back to RECIRCULATE. Read the level on the side of the measuring cup. This number should equal the number of ounces needed to flow through the pump in one minute.

    LPH800 TREATER TREATING SEED 1. Prime the line going to the atomizer by turning the Atomizer switch to ON and turn the SEED TREATMENT valve to PROCESS. Next turn the pump direction switch to FORWARD and the Hand / OFF / AUTO switch to Hand. Liquid should begin pumping up to the atomizer.
  • Page 187 LPH800 TREATER TREATING SEED The Illustration below shows how seed passes through the atomizing chamber. The red represents treatment being dispensed to the seed as it passes through the chamber. After the seed passes through the atomizer, it goes into the drum where the coating process is completed.

    LPH800 TREATER PROXIMITY SWITCH ADJUSTMENT GUIDE The proximity switches mounted in the extension ring and the seed wheel detect when seed is present. The proximity switch located in the extension ring is used to automatically shut off the inlet conveyor when the surge hopper is full. This proximity switch is not present on tower systems.

    LPH800 TREATER Section Storage When storing the LPH800 series seed treater for long periods of time, the following procedure must be followed to reduce the chance of rust, corrosion and fatigue of the treater. You can also use these steps when storing the machine for the winter. A dust mask and protective rubber gloves shall be used when cleaning the machine.
  • Page 195 LPH800 TREATER ROTATING DRUM 1. Remove the shields and clean out any seed that may have fallen underneath the drum. 2. Lubricate the chain to keep from corroding in storage. LIQUID SYSTEM 1. Make certain the inside of the tank is completely drained of chemical residue and thoroughly flush the inside of the tank with clean water.
