All information provided in this manual is for the purpose of customer education only, and is subject to change without notice.

START UP

Before the conveyor is started, the following items should be checked to ensure proper operation of the conveyor.

1.) Check the interior of the conveyor for obstructions such as wooden shipping braces etc. that may have gotten in during shipment. Remove all obstructions.

2.) Check for proper belt adjustment. See the “ BELT ADJUSTMENT ” section of this manual for tensioning requirements and adjustment instructions.

3.) Check belt direction. The lower strand of belt should be moving in a direction that is towards the head shaft. Conversely, the upper strand will be moving away from the head shaft , or towards the tail shaft.

If the belt is traveling in the wrong direction, reversing any two leads on the motor will reverse its direction. See figure #1.

4.) Check for the breather plug in the gear reducer drive. It should be in the upper most port on the reducer and it should be open to atmosphere.

Figure 1

MAINTENANCE & ADJUSTMENTS

MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE

By far, the most important maintenance activity is to keep the conveyor clean. Cleaning the conveyor on a regular basis will ensure that the reducer, motor and electronic motion sensor will perform as they were designed. It is recommended that the end users maintenance manager produce their own preventative maintenance schedule based on the following chart. Accurate records of any maintenance performed must be kept. This table is not all inclusive, and should be used as a general guideline only. It should be adjusted for shift usage, and environmental conditions.

MAINTENANCE OPERATION INTERVAL

Inspect drag cleats/wipers for wear or damage Weekly

Check for proper belt adjustment Monthly

Oil drive chain and sprockets Monthly

Check belt tracks for material build-up Quarterly

Grease headshaft bearings Semi-Annually (no.2 lithium based grease)

Check reducer oil level-change if required* Semi-Annually, change every 2500 hrs of operation *Note: Change oil in reducer after initial 40 hrs. of operation

LUBRICATION

A vital maintenance item is to ensure that the drive components are kept well lubricated. This will help prevent unneccessary down time due to early failure.

GENERAL LUBRICATION GUIDELINES

1. Use grease from tightly sealed containers. Grease should be free from impurities such as dirt, metal particulate or moisture.

2. Wipe grease fittings clean before adding grease.

3. A small amount of grease at frequent intervals is more preferable than a large amount at longer intervals. However, the proper amount and interval can only be determined by experience.

4. Bearings should be greased with a white lithium based grease such as Mobilux EP-2, Texaco Molytex 2 or equal. Do not mix different types of grease. Mixing grease may cause chemical reactions that diminish the greases ability to lubricate the bearings. Use one manufacturer and stay with that brand.

GEAR REDUCER

LUBRICATION

The reducers will be filled to the proper level with lubricant when shipped from the factory. However, the oil level should be checked periodically. Also, when checking the oil level, make sure that the vent plug is clean and functioning properly. The lubricant should be changed every 6 months or 2500 hours of operation. In unusually severe or harsh environments, the lubricant should be changed on a more frequent basis. The unit holds approximately ½ pint of oil.

ADJUSTMENTS

The drag conveyor requires only a few simple adjustments to keep it operating at peak performance.

BELT CHAIN ADJUSTMENT

Proper belt chain tension is critical to the reliable operation of this conveyor. The belt chains will loosen up after the initial run-in period, and after long periods of continued use as components begin to wear. A sure sign of an improperly tensioned belt chain is an observed jerking motion of the chains or cleats while running.

Loose belt chains may jam and cause damage to the conveyor. Over-tightened belt chains may cause excessive wear to the belt components, and create overloads on the drive.

To determine if the belt chains are properly adjusted, do the following:

1.) Position a cleat several inches prior to the headshaft in the direction of belt travel.

2.) Disconnect and lockout all power to the equipment.

3.) Press up from the underside of the conveyor firmly on the center of the cleat. Observe one of the following conditions:

3a.) If the cleat and chains collapse and stay collapsed, the chains are too loose.

3b.) If the cleat and chains spring back to their original position, the tension is correct.

3c.) If the cleat is unable to be depressed, the chains are to tight.

TIGHTENING THE BELT CHAINS

1.) Remove the chain guard cover from the drive. Loosen the chain guard back plate to allow for movement.

2.) Loosen the motor base mounting and adjustment bolts, and slide the base back to put some slack in the drive chain.

3.) Loosen the bearing mounting bolts slightly. Do not remove.

4.) Loosen the jam nuts on the take up bolts. Adjust the bolts inward to push on the bearing plates to tighten the belt chains. Adjust the bolts evenly on each side until condition “3b” is met above.

5.) Check headshaft for squareness to the machine. To do this, measure from the headshaft to the end of the head frame on each side. The dimensions should match.

6.) Tighten jam nuts on the take up bolts, and the bearing mounting bolts.

7.) Adjust the drive chain.

8.) Adjust the chain guard back plate so the sheave is centered in the large opening, and the reducer shaft is centered in the slot. Tighten in place.

9.) Replace the chain guard.

LOOSENING THE BELT CHAINS

Follow the above steps except step (4) four should read:

4.) Loosen the jam nuts on the take up bolts. Adjust the bolts outward to relieve pressure from the bearing plates to loosen the belt chains. Adjust the bolts evenly on each side until condition “3b” is met above.

3.) Loosen the belt chains slightly. Remove the cotterpin from the belt pin. Using a punch of less than

3/8" dia., carefully tap the pin from the chain. Perform this same procedure on the opposite side belt chain. Chains should now be separated.

4.) Remove the chain guard cover. Locate drive chain masterlink and separate chain.

5.) Loosen the two set screws holding the sheave onto the head shaft. Pull sheave from shaft.

6.) Remove the mounting bolts holding the headshaft assembly to the slotted take up angles.

Headshaft can now be removed from the take up slots. Do not lose the bearing push plates.

7.) Install new head shaft assembly, and reassemble the conveyor in reverse order.

VARIALBLE SPEED INVERTER OPERATION

Mayfran conveyor is supplied with a variable speed motor inverter with electronic jam. Review KB

Penta KBAC operation manual from web sight www.kbelectronics.com/manuals/kbac_manual.pdf

LOCAL JOG OPERATION

Power up inverter. Select “MANUAL” on KB Penta inverter. Push upward momentary “START” select which enables the jog “FORWARD/REVERSE” select. Manually select jog “FORWARD/REVERSE” to clear jam.

REMOTE AUTO START OPERATION

Power up inverter. Select “AUTO” on KB Penta inverter. Push upward momentary “START” select which enables a remote auto start. A remote auto start signal will start the conveyor. In some applications the remote auto start input is jumpered to start automatically when selected to “AUTO”.

SPEED REFERENCE

Conveyor speed reference is factory set at 50% (3FPM). It is preferred to increase speed if necessary.

Slower speed could cause overloading of conveyor or potential jams.

INVERTER ELECTRONIC JAM FAULT

“CL” parameter inside inverter is factory set at 100%. If overload or jam occurs, motor current will exceed the “CL” set point and inverter will fault, signaled by a flashing red LED. Do not increase “CL” without factory approval. A run status contact interlock is available t indicate conveyor running. Scrap material should not be feed into conveyor unless the conveyor is running.

TROUBLESHOOTING

OVERVIEW

Mayfran drag conveyors are designed to be the most reliable in the industry. However, problems may arise from time to time. Problems are normally discovered in one of two ways:

� A fault is indicated on the main control panel.

� The second indication that a problem exists is simply by the operator noticing that there is something different about the way the conveyor is operating; usually some sort of unusual noise or vibration. The only way to correct this problem is to examine the conveyor and determine the source.

It is imperative that any unusual noises or situations are identified, diagnosed, and corrected immediately to prevent serious damage from occurring.

OVERLOAD FAULTS

An electronic jam fault is caused by overloading or jam in the conveyor belt. After the motor inverter device is reset, and any obvious cause corrected, the component should be run in manual mode, and the amperage draw on the motor checked. Check the current setting “CL” on the motor inverter is set to 100%.

2. Field wire the damper using the as built wiring schematic for the specific unit. Wiring may be different depending on the model and options selected.

3. Refer to the factory supplied wiring print to verify the field wiring terminals.

Ductwork

This fan was specified for a specific CFM and static pressure. The ductwork attached to this unit will significantly affect the airflow performance.

• Flexible ductwork and square elbows should not be used

• Transitions and turns in ductwork near the fan outlet will cause system effect and will drastically increase the static pressure and reduce airflow

• The Ductwork Sizing Chart shows the minimum fan outlet duct sizes and straight lengths recommended for optimal fan performance

• Units with twin blower must have a common discharge plenum

Follow SMACNA guides and recommendations for the re maining duct run. Fans designed for rooftop installation should be installed on a prefabricated or factory-built roof curb. Follow curb manufacturer’s instructions for proper curb installation. It is recommended an outdoor unit be installed on a curb and/or rail elevated so intake is not less than 20” above any surface. Be sure the duct connection and fan outlet are properly aligned and sealed.

Adequate building relief is necessary in order to prevent over-pressurizing the building when the heater is operating at capacity. This can be accomplished by establishing properly-sized relief openings, an interlocked exhaust system, or both.

Heaters installed with intake ductwork must be purged to replace at least four air changes of the volume of the intake duct.

In order to avoid hazards to other fuel-burning equipment in the building (i.e., when the heater is providing make-up air to a boiler room), the unit should be interlocked to open inlet air dampers or other such devices.

On outdoor installations, it is recommended that the discharge duct be insulated to prevent condensation during the “OFF” cycle in cold weather.

Units being installed in airplane hangars should be installed in accordance with the Standard for Aircraft Hangars, ANSI/NFPA 409. Units being installed in public garages should be installed in accordance with the Standard for Parking Structures, ANSI/NFPA 88A, or the Standard for Repair Garages, ANSI/NFPA 88B, and with CAN/CGA B149 Installation Codes.

Flexible connectors should be employed on all ductwork connections. Vibration isolators are optional and can be supplied in the loose parts package.

Gas

Gas piping must be installed to conform with local building codes, or in the absence of local codes, the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 (NFPA 54) – latest edition. In Canada, gas piping must be installed in accordance with CAN/CGA-B149.1 for natural gas units and CAN/CGA-B149.2 for propane units.

WARNING

Inlet gas pressure must not exceed pressure indicated on name plate.

Refer to the heater rating plate for determining the minimum gas supply pressure for obtaining the maximum gas capacity for which this heater is specified.

1. Always disconnect power before working on or near a heater. Lock and tag the disconnect switch or breaker to prevent accidental power-up.

2. Piping to the unit should conform to local and national requirements for type and volume of gas handled, and pressure drop allowed in the line. Refer to the Gas Engineer’s Handbook for gas line capacities.

3. The incoming pipe near the heater should be sized to match the connection on the outside of the unit. Unit inlet sizes are shown in the table to the right. Avoid multiple taps in the gas supply so the unit has a steady supply of gas at all times.

4. Install a ground joint union with brass seat and a manual shut-off valve external to the unit casing, as shown below, adjacent to the unit for emergency shut-off and easy servicing of controls.

5. Provide a sediment trap, as shown below, before each unit and where low spots in the pipe line cannot be avoided.

6. Blow out the gas line to remove debris before making connections. Before starting the unit, purge line to remove air. Purge air from gas lines according to ANSI Z223.1-latest edition “National Fuel Gas Code,” or in Canada: CAN/CGA-B149.

7. All field gas piping must be pressure/leak tested prior to operating the unit. Use a soap solution or equivalent for leak testing.

The heater and its individual shut-off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of ½ PSI. During any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than ½ PSI, the heater must be isolated from the gas supply piping system and its individual manual shutoff valve closed.

8. This unit requires the gas pressure to be within the unit’s minimum and maximum gas pressure ratings. If the pressure is greater than the maximum, the internal valve components will be damaged. If the pressure is below the minimum, the heater will not perform to specifications.

9. If installing on a paint booth application, a manual shutoff should be located for access in case of a fire or explosion at the heater.

Disconnect power before installing or servicing fan . High voltage electrical input is needed for this equipment. This work should be performed by a qualified electrician.

Electrical wiring must be done in accordance with local ordinances and the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA70. Be sure the voltage and phase of the power supply and the wire amperage capacity conform to those listed on the motor nameplate. For additional safety information, refer to AMCA publication 410-96, “Recommended Safety Practices for Users and Installers of Industrial and Commercial Fans.”

1. Always disconnect power before working on or near a heater. Lock and tag the disconnect switch or breaker to prevent accidental power-up.

2. A dedicated circuit should supply the units electrical disconnect with circuit protection, according to the National Electric Code.

3. Make certain that the power source is compatible with the requirements of your equipment. The heater nameplate identifies the proper phase and voltage of the motor.

4. Units shipped with an optional remote panel have two electrical circuit. It is important to run the motor wires in a conduit separate from the remote control wiring. The DC wires from the unit temperature controller, located in the control drop, should be either in shielded cable or run in a separate conduit.

5. Before connecting the heater to the building power source, verify the power line wiring is de-energized.

6. Secure the power cables to prevent contact with sharp objects.

7. Do not kink power cable and never allow the cable to come in contact with oil, grease, hot surfaces or chemicals.

8. Before powering up the heater, check fan wheel for free rotation and make sure that the interior of the heater is free of loose debris or shipping materials.

9. If necessary, the original wire supplied with the heater may be replaced with type TW wire or the equivalent.

Remote Control Panel

For units with the remote control panel, a terminal strip inside the panel matches the termi nals in the heater unit. Consult the as built wiring print supplied with the equipment. Most remote panels and VAV applications have signal wiring which needs to be shielded cable or in a separate conduit to avoid voltage interference.

Power Supply Wiring

The units input power supply is listed on the unit nameplate. If the units power supply does not match the unit nameplate contact the service department for a new wiring print and parts.

Paint Booth Applications

If a low temperature control is not an integral part of the heater, it is recommended that one be installed in areas where freeze protection is needed in the event of a burner shutdown. The space should be ventilated following a bake cycle to purge any contaminants and cool product prior to personnel entering the space. If the unit was supplied with paint booth controls from the factory, refer to the schematic for installation of the interlock to disable spraying equipment unless the heater is operating in ventilation mode. Refer to electrical schematic for interlock to disable facility lighting within the process space during the bake cycle.

SEQUENCE OF OPERATIONS

Description of Operation

Designed for indoor or outdoor installation, the Direct Fired Gas Heater draws fresh outside air over a gas-fired burner. The unit is equipped to fire with natural or propane gas. Units are designed for modulated firing of the burner, based on the discharge-air temperature or room temperature requirement.

Standard Sequence of Operation

1. With disconnect in ON position and the remote control panel (or other device) calling for unit operation, power is supplied to the damper motor, if equipped.

2. When the damper motor approaches the OPEN position, the damper-end switch closes, energizing the motor contactor and powering the blower motor or enabling the VFD if equipped.

3. Power is supplied to the damper motor through the low-temperature limit control, if equipped. After ten minutes, the low-temperature limit control disables the unit if discharge temperature is continually below the temperature setting on the low limit control.

4. When the low airflow switch and high airflow switch (VFD only) are proven, the flame safety relay is energized through the high-temperature limit control, the optional low and/or high gas pressure switches, and the burner on/off intake air thermostat. The pilot valve opens, and the ignition transformer energizes.

5. After the flame rod detects flame, the main valves are energized and the ignition transformer de-energizes.

6. The temperature control system monitors the discharge air and modulates DC voltage to the modulating valve to maintain desired discharge temperature.

Additional Sequence of Operation – All VFD Motor Co ntrol

1. During lower speeds, the low-speed potentiometer increases the resistance going to the modulating valve to limit temperature rise.

2. VFD contacts are included in the burner control circuit to disable the burner should a fault condition occur in the VFD.

VFD by Others and VAV Choke Off Profile Bypass Damp er As the VFD increases and decreases speed the profile air flow switch modulates the VAV bypass damper motor to maintain proper pressure drop across the burner profile.

Factory VFD Profile Bypass Damper The VFD produces a 0-10vdc or a 4-20ma signal to the profile damper motor which modulates the profile damper’s opening to maintain the burner profile pressure drop. The range of this modulation must coincide with the VFD operating range.

VFD Preset Speeds

1. Inputs are made to the VFD to engage programmable pre-set speeds. A factory-supplied VFD wiring and programming instruction sheet comes with every unit. Consult the as-built schematics and the VFD manual for additional information.

Manual Potentiometer Adjustment – VFD and Choke-Off Dampers

1. A 10k-15k ohm potentiometer may be field supplied and installed if remote manual control is required for the VFD. See VFD manual for proper installation.

2. A 135 ohm potentiometer is used for remote manual control of choke-off vav dampers.

Static Pressure Control (Photohelic) – VFD and Chok e-Off Dampers

The VFD or Choke-off dampers can be controlled by a building static pressure control. This controller will sense the difference between pressure inside the building, and pressure outside the building and will control the operating speed of the VFD or position of choke-off dampers to maintain the pressure setting on the controller. The controller has two set points and an indicator. The two set points are a minimum desired static pressure point, and a maximum static pressure point.

When building static pressure is below the minimum setting, the VFD will increase the blower RPM or choke-off damper will open to increase airflow. If the building static is above maximum setting, the VFD will decrease the blower RPM or close choke-off dampers. When building static pressure is between the minimum and maximum settings, no signal is given to change VFD speed or choke-off damper position.

See additional wiring and installation information on the static pressure controller and outdoor sensor.

The static pressure controller can be ordered to be shipped loose or mounted inside the unit to reduce field wiring and assembly.

Static Pressure Controller Installation Instruction s

Avoid locating the front of the static pressure controller in sun light or other areas with high ambient light or corrosive levels. Bright light shining on the photocells can cause false actuation of the load relays.

The static pressure controller should be zeroed out before attaching the low and high pressure hoses.

The zero adjustment is located between the minimum and maximum dials.

Using the supplied rubber tubing the high side of the static pressure controller should be plumbed to the inside of the building. The low side of the static pressure controller should be plumbed to an outdoor sensor.

Outdoor Sensor

Use the installation instructions shipped with the outdoor sensor.

PROFILE ADJUSTMENTS

The Direct-Fired Gas, make-up heater requires the correct air flow velocity across the burner. The air flow switch monitors the profile pressure differential, and will open the burner circuit if pressure difference is not within the allowed range. The air flow switches have low and high pressure settings for variable air volume units. The pressure drop should not be near the minimum and maximum of the air flow switch.

Profile adjustment may be required to fine tune the burner profile pressure drop. See the specifications and instructions below on air balancing a 100% fresh air heater.

Single-Speed Profile

The pressure drop should be checked with the burner OFF if ambient temperature is greater than 60 degrees Fahrenheit. If the ambient temperature is lower than 60 degrees Fahrenheit, the burner should be operating and discharging approximately 70 degrees Fahrenheit. An extra set of airflow probes have been installed to ease in checking profile differential.

Disconnect power and close all gas valves before an d while making burner profile adjustments.

Single-Speed Profile

If the pressure drop is too low, adjust the profile opening to be smaller, which will increase the pressure drop.

If the pressure drop is too high, adjust the profile opening to be larger, which will decrease the pressure drop.

Variable Air Volume Profile

VAV Profile

In low speed, adjust the burner profile opening smaller to increase pressure drop or larger to lower pressure drop.

VAV Profile

In high speed adjust the bypass damper opening larger to decrease the pressure drop and smaller to increase the pressure drop.
