  • Page 9: Introduction

    INTRODUCTION YOUR KEY TO TROUBLE FREE SERVICE Thank you for investing in Gardner Denver quality. The Gardner Denver reputation for rugged dependability has been earned by over 50 years of service in demanding, industrial operations where downtime cannot be tolerated and efficient blower performance is expected.
  • Page 10: Section 1, Equipment Check

    STORAGE Your Gardner Denver Blower was packaged at the factory with adequate protection to permit normal storage for up to six (6) months. If the unit is to be stored under adverse conditions or for extended periods of time, the following additional measures should be taken to prevent damage.
  • Page 11 Blower inlet and outlet are temporarily capped to keep out dirt and other contaminants during shipment. These covers must be removed before start-up. The internal surfaces of all RBS units are mist sprayed with a rust preventative to protect the machine during shipment.
  • Page 12: Section 2, Installation

    SECTION 2 INSTALLATION LOCATION Install the blower in a well lit, clean dry place with plenty of room for inspection and maintenance. FOUNDATIONS For permanent installation we recommend concrete foundations be provided, and the equipment should be grouted to the concrete. It is necessary that a suitable base be used, such as a steel combination base under blower and motor, or a separate sole plate under each.
  • Page 13: Drive Installation

    FIGURE 2-1 – BLOWER MOUNTING CONFIGURATIONS 4. Secure the mounting feet capscrews to the torque value in Figure 7-9. NOTICE When changing mounting configuration, it may be necessary to reposition breather/oil fill (B), oil level gauge (H) and drain plug (A). Refer to Figure 3-1, for correct location. DRIVE INSTALLATION When selecting a V-belt drive, check to be sure the shaft overhung load limitation is not exceeded.
  • Page 14: Piping

    Exceeding overhung load limitations leads to unwarrantable premature bearing failure and shaft breakage. The location of the sheave on the blower shaft greatly affects the stress in the shaft. The optimum blower sheave positioning is as close as possible to the blower drive cover. The calculated shaft load must not exceed the maximum allowable load listed in Maximum Belt Load Chart, FIGURE 2-2.

  • Page 17: Air Filters And Filter Silencers

    AIR FILTERS AND FILTER SILENCERS Servicing the air filters is one of the most important maintenance operations to be performed to insure long blower life. Servicing frequency of filter elements is not time predictable. A differential pressure indicator, with a continuous gauge reading, should be installed across the inlet filter.

  • Page 20: Figure 3-3 - Aeon Pd Synthetic Lubricant

    RECOMMENDED LUBRICANT AEON PD Synthetic Blower Lubricant is recommended. Refer to FIGURE 3-3, for AEON PD, AEON PD-FG (Food Grade) and AEON PD-XD (Extreme Duty) part numbers. Order AEON PD from your Gardner Denver Distributor or call Gardner Denver directly.
  • Page 21: Recommended Lubricant

    AEON PD Synthetic Lubricant should be drained after 6000 hours of operation. Re-fill with fresh AEON PD oil. If mineral oil is used, perform the above oil change maintenance every 1500 hours. Recommended service intervals are for normal blower operating conditions. Severe operating conditions may warrant more frequent oil changes.
  • Page 22: Section 4, Operation

    SECTION 4 OPERATION Future operating problems can be avoided if proper precautions are observed when the equipment is first put into service. Before starting under power, the blower should be turned over by hand to make certain there is no binding or internal contact.

  • Page 24: Blower Startup Checklist

    BLOWER STARTUP CHECKLIST This startup procedure should be followed during the initial installation and after any shutdown periods or after the blower has been worked on or moved to new location. It is suggested that the steps be followed in sequence and checked off (√) in the boxes provided.
  • Page 25: Safety Precautions

    SAFETY PRECAUTIONS Do not operate blower with open inlet or outlet port. Do not exceed specified vacuum or pressure limitations. Do not operate above or below recommended blower speed range. Blower is not to be used where non-sparking equipment is specified. Do not operate without belt guard or coupling shield.
