Differential Pressure Switch Location of Differential Pressure Switch The high pressure port connects to the inlet manifold between the solenoid valve and the rotameter/rate-adjusting valve. The low pressure port connects to the discharge side of the rotameter. Function of Differential Pressure Switch The differential pressure switch ensures sufficient water flow is present before the polymer pump is energized.

Differential Pressure Switch Adjusting the Differential Pressure Switch Adjust the PolyBlend differential pressure switch only if pressure and flow to the system are adequate. The adjustment logic is the opposite of what you might expect. The PolyBlend differential pressure switches have a red light (on the left side) that lights up whenever source water flow is too low and the polymer pump is disabled.

Section 1 General Information Safety Notice Continued WARNING: Motors that are to be used in flammable and/or explosive atmospheres must display the UL label on the nameplate along with CSA listed logo. Specific service conditions for these motors are defined in NFPA 70 (NEC) Article 500.
Section 1 General Information Receiving Each Baldor Electric Motor is thoroughly tested at the factory and carefully packaged for shipment. When you receive your motor, there are several things you should do immediately. Observe the condition of the shipping container and report any damage immediately to the commercial carrier that delivered your motor.
Section 2 Installation & Operation Overview Installation should conform to the National Electrical Code as well as local codes and practices. When other devices are coupled to the motor shaft, be sure to install protective devices to prevent future accidents. Some protective devices include, coupling, belt guard, chain guard, shaft covers etc.
Section 1 General Information Doweling & Bolting After proper alignment is verified, dowel pins should be inserted through the motor feet into the foundation. This will maintain the correct motor position should motor removal be required. (Baldor motors are designed for doweling.) Drill dowel holes in diagonally opposite motor feet in the locations provided.

Lubrication Procedure Be sure that the grease you are adding to the motor is compatible with the grease already in the motor. Consult your Baldor distributor or an authorized service center if a grease other than the recommended type is to be used. Caution: To avoid damage to motor bearings, grease must be kept free of dirt.
Section 1 General Information Accessories The following is a partial list of accessories available from Baldor. Contact your Baldor distributor for availability and pricing information. Note: Space heaters and RTD’s are standard on some motors. Bearing RTD RTD (Resistance Temperature Detector) devices are used to measure or monitor the temperature of the motor bearing during operation.

Suggested bearing and winding RTD setting guidelines Most large frame AC Baldor motors with a 1.15 service factor are designed to operate below a Class B (80°C) temperature rise at rated load and are built with a Class H winding insulation system. Based on this low temperature rise, RTD (Resistance Temperature Detectors) settings for Class B rise should be used as a starting point.
