  • Page 16 Fig. 4-4 illustrates a suggestion for determining the size of the separator setup location. It is very important that a clearance of at least 1500 mm or more is ensured in front of the mouth piece of the separator. This clearance is required to remove the auger and the screen for maintenance. It must be possible to remove the auger and the screen for regular inspections.

    Ventilation Note Inflow The separator must be set up so that the solid can be freely discharged. There must be a corresponding height difference between the solid discharge point and the ground. The volume Overflow of the cone of discharged material can be determined based on the setup height.

    If this is not the case, two of the current-carrying conduc- tors at the geared motor connection or in the switch cabi- net must be swapped. Fig. 5-1 Rotation direction of the auger Operating Manual for FAN Press Screw Separator PSS 1.2/3.2/3.3/5.2...

    5.1 SETUP AND OPERATION OF THE MOTOR The motors in the standard design are suitable for operation up to a maximum ambient temperature of +40 °C (104 °F) as well as an elevation of up to 1000 m above sea level. Conditions of high humidity (e.g.
  • Page 21: Preparation For Initial Start-Up

    Two weight arms and weights are available to stabilize the solid cake and to adjust the dry matter content. These weights should be affixed as necessary. Fig. 7-1 Weight arms and weights Operating Manual for FAN Press Screw Separator PSS 1.2/3.2/3.3/5.2...

    NOTE The reaction time before each setting change takes several minutes, meaning that the effect of any change can only be determined after this time. For this reason, always allow enough time after making a change and only make changes in small steps! NOTE Before the initial start-up and after prolonged downtime, the separator should be flooded before switching it on by starting the pump briefly in order to prevent possible damage...

  • Page 24: Additional Instructions For Flawless Operation

    7.4 ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR FLAWLESS OPERATION Make certain that the overflow does not produce a siphon effect. This would produce unfavorable flows with too little solid matter entering the separator, lowering the throughput while also interfering with the self-cleaning of the screen, which is activated by the solid matter.

  • Page 32: Inspecting And Reinstalling The Auger

    13.4 INSPECTING AND REINSTALLING THE AUGER The auger is made of stainless steel. In the area of the screen, the auger blades have been plated with a special material according to a special process, see Fig. 13-14. Inspect the auger for any damage and clean it.
  • Page 33: Evaluation Criteria For The Auger And Screen With Regard To Wear And Recoating

    In principle, the auger should be recoated before the plating has been removed by wear, uncovering the base material of the auger. Otherwise, the wear on the auger will increase severely enough that it can no longer be recoated at reasonable expense. Operating Manual for FAN Press Screw Separator PSS 1.2/3.2/3.3/5.2...
  • Page 34: Summary Of Maintenance And Inspection Intervals

    For example, Fig. 13-18, right and middle images, shows plating that has been worn down on the outer edges of the auger, but recoating is still possible because the plating on the face side is still retained up to 20%, meaning that the actual auger blade has not yet been damaged. Excluding the plating, the auger blades have a thickness in this area of 10 mm, meaning that the remaining plating can be de- termined very precisely with a depth caliper.
