    Acrison can, at the user’s expressed request only, provide whatever safety device(s) the buyer or user deems applicable. If Acrison is asked to make such recommendations prior to operation of the equipment, said recommendations are only advisory and do not impose any obligation or liability upon Acrison unless Acrison is expressly requested to provide the safety device(s), and does so.

  • Page 4: Introduction

    This Manual has been produced as a guide to the correct installation, operation and maintenance of the Acrison equipment to which it refers. It has been created to provide concise, yet comprehensive product information to enable the user to obtain long term maximum benefits from the equipment. If there are any details about this Manual, the equipment or any other activity of Acrison that require further explanation, please do not hesitate to contact Acrison’s Customer Support.
  • Page 5 There is a variety of metering auger sizes available for use with the Model 105 Series of Volumetric Feeders. Please refer to the Capacity Chart within Section 3.3 of this Manual for the feed output capacities produced by the various size metering augers available with the particular model feeders.

  • Page 6: Glossary

    The standard variable speed drive for the Model 105 Series of Volumetric Feeders is DC, controlled by an Acrison variable speed SCR controller. The Model 105 utilizes a 1/2 HP DC motor, the Model 105X is furnished with a 3/4 HP DC motor, and the Model 105Z with a 1 HP DC motor. The standard DC motor is totally enclosed.
  • Page 7 DC motor speed regulation, linearity and repeatability. Acrison SCR controllers that provide a 50:1 drive turndown ratio, or those used in conjunction with Acrison weigh feeders, utilize a Tachometer for speed feedback data. The Tachometer may be directly connected to the output shaft of the DC motor, through a specially designed gear-reducer, or may be installed between the motor and gear-reducer.

    2. Check the feeder for signs of physical damage. If any physical damage is noticed, advise the shipper and Acrison immediately. Under such circumstances, do not install the equipment. 3. If warning or caution labels are not affixed to the feeder in accordance with the diagram below, contact Acrison at once.

  • Page 9: Feed Output Adjustments

    All wiring to the equipment must be made by the user or pur- chaser. This includes all interconnections between the equipment and any Acrison supplied control panel(s) as well as any safety switch(es) and/or safety interlock(s) either required by law and/or the electrical standards of the user.

  • Page 10: Operational Adjustments

    3.3.1 The speed (ratio) between the smaller metering auger and the Intromitter (or conditioning auger) is preselected based on the characteristics of the specific material to be metered, factory preset for optimum performance. If any feed-related problems are encountered, Acrison should be consulted for assistance.

  • Page 11: Maintenance- Disassembly/Reassembly

    4.0 MAINTENANCE— DISASSEMBLY/REASSEMBLY ² WARNING: Be sure to disconnect the feeder from all power sources before attempting to disassemble. Additionally, if a Drive Isolation (Mag- netic) Clutch (81) — refer to Figure 4 — is provided to isolate the Drive Motor (1) from the Gear-reducer (2), be certain that it has been disengaged (via its local On/Off switch) before beginning dis- assembly procedures.

  • Page 12: Discharge Cylinder

    If, after reassembly of the Metering Auger (10), alignment appears improper when installing the metering auger’s end bearing support (the end bearing may be piloted for exact positioning), Acrison should be consulted for assistance. 4.2 Discharge Cylinder (12) Please refer to Figures 1 and 2.

    Conditioning Auger (8) before the Conditioning Chamber (6) can be separated from the Seal Housing (5) and Gearbox (3) assembly. NOTE 2: The Model 105 Series of Volumetric Feeders include machined gearbox assemblies which include specially designed (piloted) two bolt flange bearings with Type PB Gearboxes.
  • Page 14 Reverse this procedure for reassembly. Be certain all set screws are tightened well and that all keys have been replaced properly. It is suggested to deburr all keys before reassembly to eliminate any possibility of binding. 4.5.6 To remove the Metering Auger Drive Shaft (11), first remove the Metering Auger (10) and Gear-reducer (2);...

  • Page 15: Replacing Seal Packing

    4.6 Replacing Seal Packing (16 and 17) Please refer to Figures 2 and 4. 4.6.1 To replace Packing (16) for the Metering Auger Drive Shaft (11), first remove the Metering Auger (10) and then, unthread the Metering Auger Drive Shaft Seal Cap (14). Remove the packing with a small screwdriver or needle-nose pliers and then, remove Spring (18).

  • Page 16: Universal Gearbox

    4.7 Universal Gearbox (3) Please refer to Figure 3. Later model Gearboxes (3), those which include the numbers 0607 or 0196 embossed in the gearbox casting, are entirely metric in design, with the exception of the threads on the Metering Auger Drive Shaft (11) associated with Gearbox (3).

  • Page 17: Drive Motor And Gear-Reducer

    First, install the Metering Auger Drive Shaft (11) if it was removed (please refer to paragraph 4.7.1). Then, install Spring (18) and carefully replace the packing, one ring at a time. Make sure the packing is clean and has not picked-up any dirt in handling. Seat the individual rings of packing firmly, making certain that the joints of successive rings are staggered and kept at least 90 degrees apart (see Figure 4 for reference and NOTE 1 following paragraph 4.6.2).
  • Page 18 Optical Tachometer Please refer to Figure 6. 4.9.1 When an Acrison volumetric feeder is equipped with a variable speed DC drive including a digital Tachometer (45), a specially designed Gear-reducer (2), equipped with a high speed extension shaft, is utilized to drive the tachometer. This high speed shaft is basically an extension of the motor input shaft of the gear-reducer that extends out of the Gear-reducer (2), directly opposite the DC motor, to drive the tachometer at the same speed as the motor.
  • Page 19 SCR/DC controller being utilized. Magnetic Tachometer Please refer to Figure 7. 4.9.4 When an Acrison feeder is equipped with a variable speed DC drive which includes a Magnetic Tachometer (110), the tachometer assembly installs between the Gear-reducer (2) and its drive Motor (1).

  • Page 20: Feeders With Quick-Clamp Construction

    4.10 Feeders with Quick-Clamp Construction Model 105 Series Volumetric Feeders which include Quick-Clamp Construction are designed for the rapid removal and cleaning of all major components without the need for tools. Disassembly and reassembly is basic and obvious in the utilization of quick-clamps and knurled knobs and therefore, specific instructions relating to disassembly/reassembly (of the major components) are not provided.

  • Page 21: Dc Variable Speed Drive

    6.6 Cleaning Once power to the feeder has been disconnected, the Model 105 Series of Volumetric Feeders may be cleaned in a number of ways, depending upon how well this task must be performed. After the feeder has been emptied of the product contained within (accomplished manually or by permitting the feeder to run until empty), basic cleaning of a standard feeder can be achieved via a vacuum device (without the need to remove any components).

  • Page 22: General

    7.0 RECOMMENDED SPARE PARTS Since the Model 105 Series of Volumetric Feeders are basically simple and extremely reliable devices, Acrison does not recommend that any specific component or components be maintained in a user’s inventory, except possibly, the Metering Auger (10) when helical in design. However, in more crucial processes, a user may elect to maintain additional components in inventory.
  • Page 23 Serial Number can be found on the nametag affixed to the Gearbox (3) and also, stamped onto the actual gearbox casting. NOTE 4: Acrison maintains a complete stock of all standard items used in the manufacture of this or any feeder and therefore, any standard component can usually be shipped anywhere immediately.
