Therefore, use your past experience, watch out for safety hazards and be cautious. Some general safety precautions are given below: Failure to observe these notices could result in injury to or death of personnel.

  • Page 11: Introduction Your Key To Trouble Free Service

    It is the purpose of this manual to help you properly install, maintain and service your Gardner Denver blower. It is important that no section be overlooked when preparing to install your blower.

  • Page 12: Section 2 Installation

    SECTION 2 INSTALLATION  GENERAL – The CycloBlower H.E. is a compact, rotary lobe type axial flow blower. The meshing of two screw type rotors synchronized by timing gears provides controlled compression of the air for maximum efficiency and pulsation free discharge. OPERATING PRINCIPLE –...

  • Page 13: Figure 2-2 Environmental Limits

    A vent opening is provided between the compression chamber seal and the oil sump seal. This vent prevents any compression seal leakage from flowing through the oil seal and must be left open to atmosphere. The vent holes are tapped to permit installation of a venting line. Do not plug these vent holes unless a mechanical seal is used.

  • Page 15 However, during shipping, handling and installation, it is likely that the alignment has been disturbed and final adjustment must be made before startup. Synchronous-Belt Drive – Synchronous belts are not recommended for usage on Gardner Denver positive displacement blowers. Installation of synchronous belts is critical and can result in alignment, tensioning and vibration problems, which contribute to higher than normal loads and stresses on the blowers.

  • Page 22: Section 3 Forced Lubrication System

    SECTION 3 FORCED LUBRICATION SYSTEM INSTALLATION FORCED FEED LUBRICATION SYSTEM – The forced feed lubrication system is required for running CycloBlower H.E. models at relatively high pressures/vacuums. It can also be used to extend blower life for low pressure/vacuum applications. It provides ideal lubrication for bearings and gears. Figure 3-1 shows the main components of the lubrication system.

  • Page 23: Figure 3-2 Lubrication System Electrical Requirements

    CONTROL BOX – The control box provides connections for the electrical supply, fault contacts, and remote control contact. Refer to FIGURE 3-9, page 29 and FIGURE 3-10, page 30 for wiring diagrams. Electrical Requirements – The forced lubrication system requires a 220V/240V, 50Hz/60Hz single- phase electric supply.

  • Page 24: Figure 3-3 Lubrication System Faults

    Faults– Figure 3-3, shows lubrication system control faults. Any fault will cause the fan to turn off and the fault contacts to change state. Typical Operating Fault Fault Level Comments Range 11 PSI 15-36 PSI Low oil flow rate and velocity can cause bearing and Oil Pressure [0.76 bar] [1-2.5 bar]...

  • Page 25: Figure 3-4 Oil Pressure Adjustment

    OIL RESERVOIR– The reservoir volume is approximately 10 gallons [38 liters]. The reservoir should be filled oil to the middle of the sight glass. The oil fill neck is positioned to prevent overfilling. Overfilling can prevent proper oil mist elimination and cause seal leaks. Low oil levels can increase oil temperature and decrease oil life.

  • Page 26: Figure 3-5 Reservoir Vacuum Adjustment

    ADJUSTABLE LOUVER – An adjustable louver panel in front of the heat exchanger allows the reservoir vacuum to be adjusted. The louver should be set for maximum cooling (down) unless adequate reservoir vacuum cannot be reached. Refer to FIGURE 3-5. FIGURE 3-5 RESERVOIR VACUUM ADJUSTMENT TYPICAL LUBRICATION SYSTEM PLACEMENT: Refer to FIGURE 3-12, page 32, FIGURE 3-13,...

  • Page 27: Figure 3-6 Lubrication System Hydraulic Connections

    LUBRICATION SYSTEM PLUMBING AND CONNECTIONS: Oil under pressure will cause severe personal injury or death. Shut down blower, relieve system of all pressure, disconnect, lockout and tagout the power supply before removing valves, caps, plugs, fittings, bolts and filters FIGURE 3-6 shows forced lubrication system hydraulic connections to the blower. Warm oil (orange) is pulled from the reservoir by a pump driven by the female (drive) rotor.

  • Page 28: Figure 3-7 Connection Types

    HOSES - Hoses materials need to be compatible with the lubricant used. Material compatibility data sheets for Aeon lubricants can be obtained from Gardner Denver. Hoses should be rated for temperature of at least 212°F [100°C] and pressure of at least 50 PSI [3.4 bar].

  • Page 37 NOTICE Blower speed, line losses, elevation, and increased inlet temperatures will affect the maximum operating limitations. OPERATING TEMPERATURE – Blower air discharge temperature will increase with higher operating pressures or vacuums, and lower operating speeds. If the discharge temperature or temperature rise exceeds the limits shown in (FIGURE 4-1, page 35) stop the blower at once and correct the trouble.
  • Page 38 Do not operate a blower which is noisy, vibrating, or heating excessively. 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 41 DISCHARGE SILENCER – A drain may be provided in the silencer at the lowest point for draining condensate. Draining intervals will depend upon humidity conditions and must be established by the user. HEAT EXCHANGER – Regularly inspect the heat exchanger for debris. The heat exchanger fins can be cleaned with a compressed air jet.
  • Page 42 VIBRATION MONITORING – All Cycloblower H.E. ® Models are vibration tested at the factory to ensure blower quality. The total vibration measured at the factory may be different from the site installation. Vibration is dependent on many factors including foundation construction, shaft alignment, piping configuration, drive type, and operating conditions.
