Falcon Concentrators
SB750R3.0 Operations and Maintenance Manual
1. Introduction
Falcon offers semi-batch (SB) concentrators (normally operating >99% of availability) for
the recovery of precious metals (Au, Ag and Pt) from process streams with fully
automated concentrate discharge cycles. This series of equipment is used for recovering
a fraction of the feed mass as a high-grade concentrate.
A continuous series, which consumes no additional process water, is used for recovering
fine metals and minerals from tailings (flotation or leach), or pre-concentrating of plant
feed (either fresh ore or old tailing dumps). The continuous concentrators have been
installed for recovering lead, tin, tantalum, gold, silver, coal, iron ore and their associated
minerals.
Significant advantages over competing equipment are lower capital, operating and
maintenance costs. Our advice is to review results in current operations and compare
with the commitment Falcon is able to deliver to you.

SB750R3.0 Operations and Maintenance Manual
Even when other gravity recovery processes prove unsuitable, these Falcon
Concentrators are able to recover ultra fine liberated particles and make high quality
separations by utilizing a high gravitation field. In some instances, a Falcon circuit can
achieve as high as 80% of the overall plant production depending on the percentage of
native metal present.
How it works:
Building on the pioneering work done by MacNicol in the 1930’s, the SB concentrator
employs an elutriated retention zone at the top of the rotor, requiring the addition of a
small volume of process water.
The feed stream particles are subjected to gravitational forces of up to 200 G’s and are
segregated according to effective specific gravity along the smooth spinning rotor wall.
The heaviest layers pass over the concentrate bed retained in the riffles at the top of the
rotor bowl.
The addition of fluidization (back-pressure) water from behind the riffle beds enable
heavy target particles to migrate to the bottom or outside of the bed and be retained in
preference to the lighter particles.
The high G’s permit effective recovery of even very fine particles (below 10 microns) and
the depth of the concentrate bed allows coarser particles in the feed stream to be safely
recovered. When the bed has built up to a sufficient grade, the feed is stopped (for as
little as 30 seconds) the rotor slowed and the built in spray manifold rinses the
concentrate under the rotor baffle and out the rotor discharge ports into a concentrate
launder.
1.3 Description
Frame All-welded construction, mild steel with epoxy paints to ensure
long life of the unit. The design and construction minimize
normal operating vibrations.
Launders / Lid All-welded construction, mild steel with natural rubber and epoxy
paint to ensure long life of the unit.
Rotating Assembly Consists of machined shaft, rotor base, and rotor bowl. All
components contacting slurry are lined with natural rubber. This
assembly is effectively the only moving part.
In the retention zone, which is immediately above the migration zone, fluidization water
(backpressure) is injected through the rotor wall to create a dilated or fluidized bed. The
high specific gravity gold particles become embedded in this zone and are retained here
until the machine is slowed or stopped, which allows the concentrate to be rinsed down
through the concentrate discharge ports.
During the rinse, a centrally located rinse manifold directs jets of water into the retention
zone to thoroughly clean the rotor. The rinsing process can normally be accomplished in
less than 60 seconds. A typical mass recovery to concentrate is normally less than 0.1%.
An example of this is a solids throughput of 20 tonnes per hour and a 2-hour run cycle,
which would yield a concentrate of approximately 20 kg. Dividing 20 into 20,000 equals
0.1%.
All this is done through the Automation Package or AutoPac, available on all production
units. The AutoPAC includes a programmable variable frequency drive (VFD), PLC
control, dynamic braking, and solenoids. These are to control various operating
parameters including acceleration ramp, centrifugal field, deceleration ramp, automatic
rinsing, and others. An external operator interface display screen enables the user to
program many of these operating parameters without opening the enclosure.

The specific gravity of the feed material may vary slightly, if it is higher than 2.9 kg/l the
tons per hour solids in the feed will be slightly higher for the given pulp density and
volumetric flows shown.
Concentrate
Total concentrate weight is typically less than 90 lbs (40 kg), depending on feed material
characteristics. A heavy gangue material may be much heavier, and conversely a light
gangue material may be much lighter. The volume is relatively constant and cleanup is
typically less than 40 seconds total off-line time.

SB750R3.0 Operations and Maintenance Manual
3.1 Lifting
Overhead Crane
This equipment can be lifted by overhead crane by using the lifting eyes provided on the
lid or by using lifting straps securely placed around all four vertical frame members. Make
certain lid is connected to machine with the correct number and size of fasteners before
lifting this way. The machine weight is approximately 2550 lbs (1160 kg).
WARNING!
USE EXTREME CAUTION IF LIFTING MACHINE
BY THE LOWER FRAME MEMBERS!
Forklift
A forklift can be used to lift the machine provided that the forks are placed under the
lower horizontal frame members. Be extremely careful not to damage any of the
machine components mounted beneath the machine.
IMPORTANT: Do not place forks anywhere near the center of the machine.
3.2 Location
Concentrator
There should be space conveniently available for operators and maintenance personnel
to perform various maintenance duties. This includes visually inspecting the rotor,
lubrication and maintenance.
The rotor basket, impeller / baffle and lip ring are wear items requiring the removal of the
lid assembly to replace. Allow approximately 3’ (0.9m) of overhead clearance. Major
overhauls requiring the removal of the rotor may require moving the concentrator to allow
for sufficient access space. The removal of the rotor bowl and shaft requires over 6’
(1.9m) overhead clearance.
IMPORTANT: For best availability, do not mount screens or other equipment so that they
interfere with the lid removal. A crane or lifting apparatus should be available for quick
removal of the lid, rotor components, etc.
See General Arrangement Drawing and section 6. Maintenance for more details.
AutoPac
The AutoPac should be located in a clean, dry location within site as near as possible to
the concentrator. The mounting frame or wall should be free of plant vibration, and the
bottom of the AutoPac should always be off the floor to prevent moisture and/or dust
from entering the enclosure.
3.3 Mounting
The supporting structure or floor on which this machine is to be mounted must be
capable of supporting well over the machine weight of about 10,000 lbs or 4,400 kg and
vibrations that may be produced during operation. A reinforced solid concrete foundation
is recommended. Consult the General Arrangement Drawing for information regarding
dynamic loading and unbalance specifications.
For standard installations, the typical foot bolt pattern consists of one 7/8" (22mm) hole
for 3/4" (19mm) mounting bolts on each of the four square mounting pads. Refer to
installation drawing for configuration. Use all four bolts to ensure the machine does
not move around during operation. All four legs should contact and support evenly
and the machine should be reasonably level.
The Concentrator installation drawings and AutoPac layout dimensions can be found in
Drawings.
Feed Inlet
The feed inlet connection is in the center of the machine at the top and is a 3” (75mm)
pipe grooved for a victaulic fitting. A victaulic coupling and hose nipple can be used here
to connect to rubber hose or a victaulic - flange adapter can be used to connect to an
expansion joint (available from Falcon at extra cost). The high-density polyethylene
(HDPE) feed pipe is considered a wear item and requires about 3' (0.9m) of overhead
clearance to change. Flexible connections and/or lines should be used to isolate machine
vibration during operation.
A 3” (75mm) air-actuated pinch valve can be purchased from Falcon at extra cost (see
2.4 Options) to control the introduction of feed to the machine. This pinch valve would
come complete with a 4-way solenoid, regulator and all necessary piping. When
energized, the solenoid either allows air to exhaust from the pinch valve sleeve to open it
or allows air in to close it, depending on the installation configuration. See 3.7 Air
Connections and contact Falcon for additional design details.
Alternatively, the valve can be located in the feed line with a bypass allowing re-direction
of the feed away from the machine during rinse and shut down, when the valve is closed.

TAILINGS TAILINGS
Recommended Alternative
Tailings Outlet
The tailings outlet connection is the 6" (150mm) pipe on the outside of the shroud and is
at an angle of about 6° below horizontal and grooved for a victaulic fitting. A victaulic-
flange adapter can be used here for a connection to an expansion joint (available from
Falcon at extra cost).
The tailings piping should have a fall adequate to direct slurry away from the machine
without a chance of blockage. This could cause a backup of solids into the machine
causing severe damage. The connection must be flexible as to isolate tailings line from
machine vibration.
Concentrate Discharge
During the concentrate rinse cycle the concentrate combined with the rinse water exits
the rotor through four holes located directly under the rotor baffle. Since the rotor and
impeller/baffle assembly rotate during operation, material cannot exit the rotor until
rotation has ceased or slowed dramatically. After exiting the rotor, the concentrate is
collected in a stationary concentrate launder directly underneath the rotor.
From the concentrate launder the concentrate is flushed through a drain outlet which is a
3” (75mm) vertical pipe grooved for a victaulic fitting, and from there can be directed into
a storage container or pumped to a desired location. A victaulic-flange connection can be
used here to connect (available from Falcon at extra cost).
Other than the inlet connection no field connections will be necessary to complete this
sytem. Only one process water connection is required, a water distribution system is
included and pre-piped from the pipe string. The inlet piping connection is a 2” (50 mm)
flange. See Drawings for a full description.
The connection must be flexible so as to isolate the water line from machine vibration.
Falcon Concentrators 3-4
SB750R3.0 Operations and Maintenance Manual
Process water is necessary for fluidizing the retention zone, rinsing of the rotor bowl
during a rinse cycle, and flushing the concentrate launder. The supply requirement can
vary, but 80 USgpm (300 l/m) at 20 psi (140 kPa) should be available.
Rinse Valve
High/Low Solenoid
On/Off Solenoid
“Y” Filter
Water Inlet
Water Filter
Immediately following the inlet connection is a self-cleaning “Y” filter. This filter comes
complete with a 0.25mm (40 mesh) screen and will prevent oversize material from
entering the water system within the machine.
There are two manual pressure gauges to measure pressure drop across the screen,
indicating a plugged or partially blocked screen if a there is a > 5 psi difference in
pressures.
If the screen becomes plugged, flush the oversize material by intermittently opening the
ball valve attached. Don’t allow prolonged flushing to cause large fluctuations in the
fluidization water flow to the machine. It is acceptable to attach a hose to this flushing
valve to redirect the water and material discharged from the screen.
Fluidization Water
Other than the inlet connection, no field connections are necessary to complete this
system. The machine is pressure tested at the factory and. For initial setup the operating
(high) pressure should be 15 psi, and the rinse (low) pressure 5 psi. Field adjustments
may be necessary for optimum performance.
For additional information regarding fluidization water, rinsing water, and flushing water
see relating sections:
1.3 Description
5.4 Optimizing
5.5 Rinsing
5.6 Shut Down
Water for the concentrate rinse manifold is pre-piped directly from the main water
manifold. The water is piped through a manual ball valve to a 2-way normally closed
solenoid valve and directed through a 1/2” flexible hose to the rinse manifold mounted
near the center of the lid. All connections here are made at the factory but the hose may
be disconnected for shipping. Use the ball valve to adjust rinse flow.
Concentrate launder flushing water is pre-piped directly from the main water manifold.
The water is piped through a manual ball valve and directed through a 1/2” flexible hose
to a 2-way normally closed solenoid attached directly to the concentrate discharge
launder.
This flush line is to be used to keep material from building up in the concentrate launder,
and it may be helpful to add water to the concentrate to aid in pumping. All connections
here are made at the factory. Use the ball valve to adjust flow.
This solenoid is attached directly to the maintenance access port cover in the
concentrate launder. The cover can be removed without disconnecting the solenoid.
The piping connections for the SINGER Pressure Reducing Valve (PCV) are done at the
factory.
For a more complete PCV description, including operation, installation, service and
maintenance see section 6.1 Maintenance, Drawings and the PCV manual in Support
Manuals.
Always replace worn, damaged, or faulty electrical or AutoPac (or automation package)
components with factory specified replacements. Using parts not supplied by Falcon will
void warranty.
For AutoPac installation and electrical connections see section 3.2 Location and AutoPac
drawings. Follow local codes / standards when installing. The AutoPac should be located
in a clean, dry location as near as possible to the concentrator.
The solenoids and vibration monitor connections have been terminated in the electrical
enclosure mounted beneath the deck of the machine. Terminals inside of this enclosure
will be marked in accordance with the schematic drawings. All other connections are to
be made by the customer.
Motor
The drive motor is 10 hp (7.0 kW), 3 phase with voltage and frequency as ordered by the
customer. The motor should be wired to turn the rotor in a counter clock-wise (CCW)
direction when viewed from above. See arrow on machine for direction of rotation. The
motor cable is not supplied.
For most applications these solenoids are 2-way, 120v. All electrical connections from
the solenoids to the machine-mounted junction box are made at the factory. Connections
from the AutoPac to the junction box are to be done by the customer.
Vibration Monitor
All connections to the machine-mounted junction box are made at the factory.
All connections to the machine-mounted junction box are made at the factory.
See General Arrangement drawings. The standard feed pinch valve solenoid is 4-way,
normally closed, 120v. This solenoid is mounted directly under the deck of the machine
with a flexible line protruding upwards to the feed pinch valve.
This cable is separate to allow the option of moving the feed pinch valve and connecting
the solenoid directly to the valve.
An air-actuated pinch valve can be purchased from Falcon at extra cost (see 2.4
Options) to control the introduction of feed to the machine. This pinch valve would come
complete with a 4-way solenoid, regulator and all necessary piping. When energized, the
solenoid either allows air to exhaust from the pinch valve sleeve to open it, or allows air
in to close it, depending on the installation configuration. See Figure 3.4-1 Feed Pinch
Valve Configuration.
Compressed air is to be connected to the 4-way solenoid. For the pinch valve to operate
correctly there should be a maximum of 50-psi (340 kPa) differential between supplied air
pressure and internal line pressure.
The pinch valve is normally installed in a bypass configuration that does not allow feed to
the machine when in the default, normally open state (solenoid normally closed). When
the solenoid is energized allowing air into the feed pinch valve sleeve, the valve closes
and the feed is re-directed to the machine.
Alternatively, the solenoid can be changed to allow air into the feed pinch valve and
causing it to close when de-energized. In this case, the pinch valve should be located in
the feed line with a bypass allowing re-direction of the feed away from the machine
during rinse and shut down, when the valve is closed.
For the normal or standard configuration, the supply air pressure is connected to the
PRESSURE port, and the pinch valve is connected to the CYLINDER B port. The
CYLINDER A port should be plugged, so that when the solenoid is de-energized the air
from the pinch valve exhausts, opening it fully. When energized, the pressure closes the
pinch valve, directing feed to the machine.
De-energized Energized
For an alternate configuration, where the feed pinch valve is installed in the feed line,
with a bypass to redirect feed away from the machine, the pinch valve needs to be
closed when the solenoid is de-energized. To do this, switch the pinch valve connection
to CYLINDER A port and plug CYLINDER B port.
If properly connected and wired in either configuration, the AutoPac, solenoid, and the
pinch valve prevent feed slurry from entering the machine in the event of a power failure.
To test, energize the AutoPac and see if any material is allowed to enter the machine.
There should not be any material entering the machine until it reaches run or operating
speed, with the AutoPac either energized or de-energized.

4. AutoPac
Note: The standard AutoPac uses a Mitsubishi PLC, Variable Frequency Drive and
Operator Interface. If the customer is supplying their own automation this section can be
used for reference purposes. Contact Falcon for additional automation documentation
and references that may be purchased at extra cost.
4.1 Introduction
Falcon Programmable Automation Controllers or AutoPacs are designed to allow
maximum flexibility for a variety of applications.
Falcon Concentrators guarantees each AutoPac being fully capable of complete stand-
alone operation, and will commission each installation as such. For more information see
section 4.9. External Communication.
The control switches, buttons and OI are located on the outside of the AutoPac cabinet,
and access to these only are required for normal operations. These are:
STOP (Normal) Push button to shut down the concentrator, initiating a rinse
cycle (except in RINSE OFF) before stopping the rotor.
EMERGENCY STOP Large red push button to shut the concentrator down
immediately with no rinsing.
The VFD display screen and the VFD FR-PU04 parameter unit are mounted inside the
enclosure. The VFD parameter unit can be used to select different operating parameters
such as run speed, rinse speed, acceleration and deceleration time, etc.
4.2 Instrumentation
Vibration Switch
A vibration switch supplied by the manufacturer is mounted to the frame of the machine
to monitor the concentrator for excessive vibration. If excessive vibration is detected the
switch sends a signal to the PLC and initiates either a Rinse Cycle or Shut Down
depending on the severity of the vibration. The E200 display will show that a fault has
occurred.
If vibration shut down occurs where little or no vibration is observed adjust the settings
inside the switch and with the E-200 OI - Vibration menu accordingly. See Vibration
Switch Manual in Support Manuals, and also Programming – E-200 in the following
pages.
The automatic valve assembly applies the correct fluidization pressure to the rotor bowl
using two built-in solenoids according to the Control Philosophy (4.10). See also SINGER
manual in Support Manuals.
Options
Contact Falcon regarding optional instrumentation such as digital flow meters, pressure
transmitters, etc.
4.3 Powering Up
Before energizing the AutoPac, check the following:
The three-phase disconnect handle will only energize the AutoPac if the door of the
cabinet is closed. Turn to the ON position. See section 4.8 Common Faults and the
Mitsubishi VFD manual in Support Manuals if the AutoPac fails to energize.
WARNING:
The cabinet door will need to be opened with the AutoPac energized in order to make
VFD parameter changes. Do this by turning the small flat screw located at the bottom
of the disconnect handle.
Use extreme caution to avoid electrical shock and close and latch the door

VFD Parameters
The following is a list of the parameters changed at the Falcon factory from the default
settings. These can be further changed during commissioning, but should remain fixed
unless the machine is moved or feed characteristics change. For a complete list of the
default settings refer to the VFD manual.
This is just a basic instruction. It is highly recommended that the operator(s) consult
the VFD and Parameter Unit manuals before setting or changing parameters. With
the parameter unit it is also possible to monitor current and voltage, review alarms,
operate the concentrator locally (using the parameter unit instead of the panel controls),
and perform other functions.
IMPORTANT: These are the only items that need to be altered after commissioning.
With the E200 Operator Display the following parameters can be viewed or set. These
menus and procedures may change slightly. If there are any problems or questions
contact Falcon Concentrators Inc for instructions.
Display
This indicates run cycle time of 2 hours, of which 1.5 hours has transpired, a rinse cycle
delay of 5 seconds and a rinse cycle of 30 seconds. The rinse cycle delay and rinse
cycle will not be activated until the run time has expired.
The machine will initiate a rinse cycle. From a stop, when the START button is pressed,
the VFD accelerates the rotor to the rinse speed with no feed entering the machine. If at
run speed, the VFD decelerates the rotor. Once at rinse speed the rinse water comes on.
No timers are activated, meaning the machine will stay in this state until the operator
selects a different operating mode or stops the machine.
CAUTION: Avoid running the rotor at slow rinsing speed for extended periods. This may
cause motor over heating.
Rinse OFF
When the START button is pressed, the VFD accelerates the rotor to the run speed and
feed is introduced. The machine will process feed continuously without rinsing, and will
stay in this state until the operator selects a different operating mode, stops the machine,
or if a shut down fault is initiated.
The machine will stay in this state until the operator selects a different operating mode or
stops the machine.
Pressing normal STOP will initiate a rinse cycle before the machine stops.
Rinse AUTO
When the START button is pressed, the VFD accelerates the rotor to the run speed and
feed is introduced. The machine will process feed semi-continuously, and will rinse
automatically according to the pre-set run and rinse cycles.
In this mode, the machine can either be accelerating, processing feed, at run speed with
no feed (rinse cycle delay), decelerating, or rinsing.
Pressing normal STOP will initiate a rinse cycle before the machine stops.
The normal STOP button should always be used for normal shutdowns. This will initiate a
rinse cycle (in Rinse OFF or AUTO) before stopping the machine.
The EMERGENCY STOP button should only be used in emergencies. The deceleration
time is very short, and no rinse cycle will be initiated. Also, there will be no rinse delay
cycle to allow feed material to empty from the feed piping so there may be a large
amount of material left in the rotor bowl after the machine is stopped.
Maintenance Timer
There is a Maintenance Timer that measures the Concentrator’s running time. When the
Maintenance Timer reaches the programmed set point (hours), the display is activated
on the E200 and the timer will need to be reset [F4].
Hour Meter
This is a timer that logs operating hours only. This can’t be reset or changed.
CAUTION: Read entire AutoPac section before troubleshooting. Refer to the schematic
drawings and consult a qualified electrical technician.
If the VFD should trip during acceleration or deceleration, reset the VFD and extend the
corresponding ramp time (parameters 7. or 8.).
There are numerous other possible causes of a VFD trip, see VFD Manual for complete
list of faults and related parameters.
Vibration Shutdown
The vibration switch monitors vibration levels, and the AutoPac attempts to correct the
vibration and if unable to do so shuts the concentrator down.
There are three settings in the Vibration Menu [F4], Warning Level, Danger Level and 2nd
Vibration. If a 1st vibration warning level is detected a rinse cycle is initiated (except if in
RINSE OFF) and the 2nd Vibration timer begins.
If a 2nd vibration warning level is detected a normal stop is initiated and a control panel
warning LED light will illuminate showing that the unit has shut down due to vibration. If a
Vibration Danger level is detected the concentrator will also shut down.
The display will register this fault and will display a “RESET”. The display will read:
In this case, press the [F4] Function Key directly under “RESET” and investigate the
cause of the vibration shut down. Some causes can be found in section 5.8 Vibration. If
not in the Vibration Alarm screen, press [Main] to return to the fault screen.
remove the cover from the vibration switch and reset. Refer to BALMAC Model 550
Vibration Switch Operation Manual in Support Manuals.
Three-phase power is supplied to a switch inside the AutoPac cabinet. This switch has a
handle and interlock mounted on the cabinet door. From the switch, power is applied to
the line contactor and the primary of the control transformer.
The line contactor supplies three-phase power to the VFD and the control transformer
supplies 120VAC power for the PLC, solenoid valves and control switches. A 24 VDC
supply from the PLC supplies power to the E200.
If there is a fault, electrical short circuit, or damage to the motor, solenoids, switches or
other electrical devices this may cause breakers to trip. Investigation of the cause(s)
must be performed by qualified electrical personnel.
The START command will not begin if the normal STOP or EMERGENCY STOP buttons
are depressed, if a Vibration Shutdown or other remote shutdown has occurred, or if
there is a VFD fault. Check the E200 screen. These faults must first be corrected and/or
RESET.
If the green START button is flashing this indicates a VFD, brake or other internal fault.
Have an electrician open the AutoPac cabinet door and investigate.
The VFD display should show [EXT] mode, not [PU]. If in the [PU] mode the unit can be
started using the VFD parameter unit, but the AutoPac panel controls will not be
functional.
The PLC and Operator Interface Ladder Logic Programs can only be accessed using a
MAC-PROG/9-CAB cable connected between the RS 232 port on the OI and a laptop
computer, PC or compatible hand-held device. Software must be loaded into the
computer first, which can be purchased from Falcon Concentrators Inc.
Different types of communication/control links between the AutoPac and plant control
systems are possible, the most common being Profibus, Devicenet, and Ethernet. For
quotations on further control requirements please contact Falcon Concentrators Inc.

WARNING!
USE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS WHEN WORKING WITH, ON OR
AROUND ROTATING MACHINERY AND ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT.
Each installation is unique, therefore it is not possible to specify exact procedures for
start up, operating, rinsing, and shut downs. The procedures mentioned in the following
sections are only meant to give the operating personnel general guidelines to help
optimize the performance of the machine, and minimize downtime.
Falcon has a highly qualified staff to help with installation optimization. Please do not
hesitate to ask for assistance.
WARNING!
DO NOT OPERATE OR ENERGIZE THE MACHINE WITHOUT ALL
GUARDS IN PLACE.
DOING SO COULD RESULT IN INJURY.
Remove filter cover and screen and thoroughly flush entire water supply line before
putting machine into service the first time.
Feed material must only be introduced when the rotor has reached operating or run
speed, otherwise the unit may flood. Before starting the concentrator it is recommended
that the feed be tested using a bypass system to see if it is within design limitations.
Optimum feed volumetric rates and pulp densities will vary greatly with different materials
There is no minimum density for the feed stream but the maximum is 70%. For low-
density feed the throughput may be governed by the maximum slurry capacity of about
350 USgpm or1325 l/m.
For estimating and set up purposes begin with the nominal values given in section 2.
Specifications and the table on the following page.
IMPORTANT: The Shaded area in the following table represents solids throughputs
exceeding the recommended limits. Operating at or above these limits may adversely
affect performance and may significantly increase wear.
If the feed characteristics are within the recommended limits the film of slurry moving up
the migration zone should be relatively thin, and the impeller and the bottom portion of
the rotor should be visible during operation. If there is a large amount of slurry “swirling”
around near the base of the rotor walls this indicates exceeding the feed limits, a worn
impeller, or unsuitable rotational speed.
The following table is provided to aid in determining feed rates. It shows the relationship
between a volumetric pulp flow rate and % solids content of the feed, and how they
determine the solids throughput.

The specific gravity of the feed pulp material may also vary. If it is higher than 2.9 kg/l,
the tons per hour solids in the feed will be slightly higher for the given pulp density and
volumetric flows shown.
When no solids are fed into the unit, clear water may be left running in most cases
without substantial loss of target minerals, if the concentrator is operating at speed and
target mineral capacity has not been exceeded.
Oversize particles will adversely affect the performance of the machine. To prevent
problems and maximize performance it will usually be necessary to install a screen
ahead of the machine. This can be of either static or vibrating type, and should not be
installed directly on top of the machine impeding easy removal of the lid.
If oversize is allowed to enter the machine it is likely to be captured in the retention zone,
or rotor basket, during the run cycle. During the rinse cycle this oversize will be rinsed
from the rotor basket down into the base of the rotor bowl, and may obstruct or even plug
the gap between the rotor baffle and the rotor bowl wall. If this happens it will restrict the
flow of concentrate out of the machine, subsequently decreasing metallurgical recovery.
Other problems created by oversize are imbalance, reduced concentrate volume (less
recovery volume for target mineral), and increased maintenance requirements.
Solids throughput is partially dependent on particle size and specific gravity. Generally,
coarser and denser particle streams reduce the maximum throughput, and require more
water in the feed combined with higher fluidization pressure.
Where a high specific gravity gangue is present, increasing the volume/pressure of the
fluidization water will prevent ‘packing’ of solids throughout the retention zone or rotor
basket. See Fluidization Flow in section 5.4 Optimization. Conversely, finer and lighter
particle streams generally increase the maximum throughput and require less water in
the feed and lower fluidization flow.
Optimum operating conditions for a given material are usually determined and
established during a commissioning visit. Continuing laboratory analysis of the feed,
concentrate and tailings will be necessary to maintain the optimum conditions.
IMPORTANT: Test the feed system before starting to make sure the feed valve
operation conforms to the control philosophy in 4.10.
WARNING!
DO NOT OPERATE OR ENERGIZE THE MACHINE WITHOUT ALL
GUARDS IN PLACE.
DOING SO COULD RESULT IN INJURY.
Before starting the machine study the AutoPac functions and control philosophy and be
familiar with the operating parameters such as run speed, rinse speed, acceleration time,
deceleration time, run cycle, rinse cycle, fluidization flow/pressure etc. It is recommended
that a qualified factory representative be present during start up.
Before slurry feed is allowed to enter the machine make certain there is sufficient
fluidization flow/pressure (to be determined during the commissioning). This will eliminate
build-up of solids in the water jacket. A manual gauge is installed immediately prior to the
rotating union to indicate whether sufficient pressure is being applied.
It is recommended that a water test be done first. Once the user is familiar with the
machine and the operating conditions and parameters are established, press Start with
the Rinse status in Auto. This will bring the machine to operating speed.
If the machine does not reach operating speed within the time set for the acceleration
ramp, shut the machine down and determine the cause of the problem. If no mechanical
problem is apparent and the rotor spins freely, an electrical or programming problem is
likely.
Check the machine before the introduction of any feed material for any abnormal
vibration. If vibration is excessive or a problem is observed immediately shut off
the concentrator and investigate cause. See section 5.7 Vibration.
WARNING!
VIBRATION MEANS THAT THERE IS SOMETHING OUT OF
BALANCE. RECTIFY BEFORE RECOMMENCING OPERATION.
The following is a procedure for a typical machine start-up to be integrated with other
plant procedures.
The Emergency Stop button should only be pressed in emergencies, for normal shut
down always use the normal stop key.
5.4 Optimization
To determine the optimum operating parameters for the desired concentrate
grade/recovery, some experimentation and sampling may be required.
Falcon recommends that a thorough sampling program be followed for the first two
weeks of operation and periodically thereafter to correctly determine the best
grade/recovery.
Fluidization Pressure
When the machine is stopped the backpressure solenoid defaults is normally closed, not
allowing any fluidization water into the machine. As soon as the START button is pressed
the backpressure solenoid opens and remains open until the machine is stopped. The
operating pressure solenoid defaults to a normally open state when the machine reaches
output detection speed (VFD parameter 42).
During operation, fluidization water is injected through the rotor basket wall to create a
dilated or fluidized bed. The high specific gravity target minerals become embedded in
the zone and are retained here until the machine is stopped and the concentrate is rinsed
out of the rotor.
To fully determine if the water fluidization flow/pressure is set correctly for maximum
possible recovery it will be necessary to do laboratory analyses of the feed, concentrate
and tailings.
To determine this
Observe the texture of the material concentrated in the retention zone, or rotor basket,
noting whether it is packed hard or if it ‘slumps’ out of the riffles. If the material is packed
hard, increase the fluidization water and continue this procedure until the material
slumps. This indicates that the pressure is sufficient to keep the bed of material in the
retention zone properly fluidized during operation.
If the fluidization flow/pressure is too high, however, there will be very little material left in
the retention zone. The amount of concentrate collected after each run cycle should be
approximately 50 lbs (22 kg), depending on various factors. If the amount is significantly
lower than this, this may indicate that the fluidization flow/pressure has been set too high.
Laboratory analysis of the feed, concentrate and tailings should indicate whether
recovery in the fine fraction is as expected. A low recovery here may also indicate that
the fluidization flow/pressure may be set too high.
This should only be determined after following a thorough sampling program, as it may
be that the very fine recovery is affected by other causes, and may not be dependent
solely on fluidization water.
CENTRIFUGAL FORCE
During commissioning a run cycle time will be recommended based on the application,
objective, and visible analysis of the concentrate and tailings. A typical run cycle would
be two hours in duration, producing a mass recovery of less than 0.1% to concentrate.
To more accurately determine the optimum run time for the desired concentrate grade
and/or recovery some experimentation, sampling, and laboratory analysis may be
required. Falcon recommends that a thorough sampling program be followed for the first
two weeks of operation and periodically thereafter.
The following procedure can be used as a guide to determine the optimum run time for
any particular material:
2. Collect tailings samples for each of twelve ten-minute operating periods during the
two-hour period (i.e.: Sample #1 = 0-10 minutes, Sample #2 = 10-20 minutes, etc.).
The samples can be collected by taking 3 second cuts every 30 seconds using a
sampling system.
3. Analyze these samples to determine when there was a significant change in tailings
grade over the course of the run period. If no change was evident then repeat
the test using a 4-hour run and sample every half-hour.
4. Use the information from 3. above to determine optimum or 'safe' running time.
In some near capacity situations and when processing some types of feed, depending on
its characteristics, it may be advantageous and convenient to reduce the run time
dramatically and re-process the small volume of rougher concentrate in a clean-up cycle.
An additional SB concentrator or the original concentrator, when off line, can be used for
this clean-up operation to produce a primary high-grade concentrate when lower volumes
can allow optimum feed parameters. The tails from the clean-up operation should be
reprocessed through the rougher cycle feed. This is usually the best way to achieve
higher-grade final concentrates without sacrificing high recovery.
Rotational Speed
The rotational speed of the rotor bowl determines the ‘G’ forces impacted on the material
moving through the machine. This is calculated by the formula:
Generally, the fine streams (< 50 microns) require higher G’s for optimal recovery and
coarser streams lower G’s. The rotational speed can be set in Hz. See also Table 5.7-2
RPM vs. G’s.
5.5 Rinsing
The AutoPac automatically controls fluidization flow, acceleration, feed valve operation,
deceleration, rotor rinse speed, rinse water and flush water introduction, and duration of
the rinse cycle. See 4. AutoPac for programming details.
The control philosophy below describes a typical run cycle. The rinse cycle is the term
describing the time of operation when the machine decelerates and rinses the target
mineral from the machine. The run cycle begins again once acceleration has begun.

Rinse Pressure
0 Hz Rinse Delay Speed
The rinse cycle begins with the rinse delay, which stops the feed a pre-set time before
initiating the deceleration. This feature is necessary when the feed valve is located some
distance from the machine, as feed material downstream may still slump into the rotor
during deceleration and rinsing even after the feed stops.
This could cause the grade of the concentrate to be compromised and possible plugging
in the bottom of the rotor. The rinse delay is usually less than 5 seconds. After the rinse
delay times out the machine begins to decelerate, and the fluidization pressure
decreases to the low setting.
When the rotor reaches the rinse speed (usually 1-2 Hz.) the rinse manifold solenoid
opens allowing water to the rinse manifold, and the spray nozzles rinse the concentrate
out of the retention zone or rotor basket. This material then flows out through the
discharge holes located under the impeller/baffle assembly into the concentrate launder
to be directed away from the machine.
A concentrate launder flush line c/w an automatic solenoid is installed to flush out the
concentrate launder following each rinse. This is site specific based on specific
requirements such as pumping the concentrate, tendency for build-ups, etc.
A normal rinse cycle normally takes less than two minutes from start to finish, or off-line
to on-line again. During the first few days of operation observe the concentrate rinsing
from the rotor during the rinse speed, and determine the time it takes to effectively clean
the rotor. Normally this is between 20 and 60 seconds.
If more than one minute is required for the concentrate to be completely removed from
the rotor during the rinse cycle, check for the following:
The complete rinse cycle should be witnessed periodically to insure the rotor is
completely clear of concentrate at the end of the cycle.
Using normal STOP initiates a controlled shut down which includes a rinse delay,
deceleration, and timed rinse cycle before stopping the machine. This allows the
machine to always stop clean.
After each shut down inspect the machine for wear. It is important to implement a
preventative maintenance procedure to optimize performance and extend the life of the
machine.
For shut downs of more than one day, drain the water from the machine by opening the
flushing valve attached to the rotating union at the bottom of the machine. This will help
prevent scale or rust build-up within the machine

If Vibration Danger limit or a 2nd Vibration Warning is detected the machine rinses first
and then stops. A message will appear on the E200.
IMPORTANT: If vibration shut down occurs, never re-start without checking the cause.
5.7 Vibration
Prior to leaving the factory all machines are run at full speed, balanced, and run
repeatedly to check for any abnormal vibrations. Upon installation, some vibration of the
unit during operation is normal and safe as the feed material causes varying degrees of
imbalance in the rotor. If excessive vibration is observed, investigate the cause. The
AutoPac employs a machine mounted vibration switch to monitor vibration and effect a
controlled shut down if vibration becomes excessive.
IMPORTANT: Do not override or bypass the vibration switch, operating with excessive
vibration may cause premature bearing failure and will void warranty.
In many cases vibration can be minimized by changing feed and/or operating conditions,
such as increasing feed throughput, decreasing feed pulp density, and reducing speed.

6. Maintenance
When performing service and maintenance functions that require the machine to be
stopped always LOCK THE MACHINE OUT at the AutoPac or suitable place to avoid
inadvertent starting.
WARNING!
OBSERVE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS WHEN WORKING WITH,
ON OR AROUND ROTATING MACHINERY AND
ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT.
Wear Surfaces
The following components are designated wear items and their condition should be
periodically checked. In addition to maintaining optimum performance, a preventative
maintenance schedule will extend the overall life of the machine. Wear of one component
may subsequently cause premature wear of another if not repaired or replaced. The
following expected life is based on 24/7/365 operations.
To minimize downtime some of these items should be stocked as spare parts. For a
complete list see section 7. Recommended Spares.
IMPORTANT: The water system needs to be kept in good working order to maintain
optimum recovery.
In order to maintain the correct pressure it is important that regular inspection and
maintenance of the water system is performed. If fluctuations occur it may be evidence of
damage and/or blockage in the water filter/screen, rotating union, rotor hose(s), rotor
basket, PCV, or scale build-up. See the following sections for more details.
Water Filter
The filter is a canister type screen which allows for self-cleaning during operation. The
standard screen aperture size is 40 mesh (0.25mm). There are two pressure gauges
attached to the filter, one before the screen and one after.
A significant pressure difference between the two (>5 psi) indicates some blockage of the
screen. This can be cleaned by opening the attached flushing valve while there is inlet
water pressure but it may also be necessary to shut down the machine to open the cover
and remove the filter.
Rotating Union
The rotating union is the device that allows water to enter the rotating shaft from a
stationary pipe string. The union contains a brass seal that can be easily damaged if
there are fine solids or chemicals in the water supply. Damage can also occur if the union
is allowed to run dry.
Water leaking from the union indicates a worn seal, which should be replaced before
complete failure occurs. If cyanide is present in the water supply, it is highly
recommended that a stainless steel union or kit be installed. Rotating union rebuild kits
and/or a complete rotating union should be stocked as spare parts.
Rotor Hoses
There are two rotor hoses made up of hydraulic hose and hydraulic fittings to direct the
fluidization water from the rotor shaft flange to the rotor bowl water jacket. If material is
allowed to build up in the concentrate launder this may cause wear of the bottom hose
fittings.
To inspect the bottom hose fittings remove the access plate bolted to the concentrate
launder.
These hoses must not be allowed to plug with solids to maintain optimum metallurgical
performance and the balance of the machine. Even a small amount of solids in one of
these hoses may cause a severe imbalance at operating speed, as the mass is multiplied
by the force of gravity effected by the rotation (50-200 G’s).
Check for blockage each time the rotor basket is removed. Do this by opening the FCV
and checking that water is coming through both inlet holes in the water jacket.
Attached to the rotating union, this manual ball valve is used to flush all of the water from
the machine. This will be necessary if the machine is to remain idle.
This valve can also be used to flush material from the water jacket. See following
sections regarding Scale and Rotor Basket for more details.
Scale
The presence of scalants (such as calcium carbonate, etc) or particulate matter in the
process water may lead to an increase in maintenance on the water system. If an anti-
scalant system is installed in the process water prior to the machine, it will minimize or
eliminate the problem.
There are several different systems available and most are inexpensive and require
minimal time to install. Falcon Concentrators would be pleased to assist in
recommending a system suitable for specific conditions. Contact Falcon for details.
Pressure Gauges
Pressure gauges are used to back up and verify the Pressure Transmitters. If the water
supply is kept free of slimes and/or scale, they will remain reliable. If the face of the
gauges begins to cloud or if the needle does not register, they should be replaced with
gauges with a range of 0-100 psi. The cause of the failure should be investigated and
steps taken to prevent re-occurrences.
To clean, remove the gauges and blow compressed air into the small inlet hole in the
base of the gauge. Some gauges come with a removable cap in the top; these can be
drained and re-filled with lightweight oil.
The rinse water system is only operational during the rinse cycle. Watch for wear or
plugging of the rinse nozzles. For maintenance it is necessary to remove the rinse
manifold by removing the two bolts holding the manifold retainer and lifting the assembly
out. Replacement nozzles should be stocked as spare parts.
Should the rinse solenoid fail it is possible (but not recommended) to eliminate the
solenoid and use the manual valve to continue operation. In this case, the manual valve
should remain open at all times (leaving the water on during the run cycle will not
significantly affect performance). It is recommended that solenoids be stocked as spare
parts.
The flush water system is only operational immediately following a rinse cycle. Watch
that this is functioning correctly to avoid build-ups within the concentrate launder.
Lid Removal
The lid is considered a wear item and should be inspected for rubber wear upon each
removal. The lid will need to be removed to repair or replace the rotor basket, impeller,
baffle, lip ring, or to re-line the rotor or lid itself.
First remove the piping above, then remove the bolts through the lid and tailings launder
flange. Using the lifting eyes provided on the lid the lid assembly can be lifted straight up
and off the tailings launder. Be careful to lift straight up to avoid damaging the rubber
lining inside the rotor with the feed pipe or spray nozzles.
Store safely while removed making sure not to damage any attached components or the
rubber lining.
With the lid removed, replace the rubber-lined lip ring by removing the bolts and
separating the ring from the rotor top plate. Examine the lip ring for excessive wear that
could be a result of improper operating of the rotor basket or other component. The lip
ring should be stocked as spare parts and can be re-lined by qualified personnel.
When re-installing, snug the bolts in an opposite pattern and tighten in a circular pattern
starting with the inner most row. Torque to 15 ft. lbs.

First remove the lid and lip ring, then remove the top plate bolts. To free the plate from
the rotor it may be necessary to use the jacking holes provided. Use caution not to
damage the o-ring cord under the rotor top plate. The top plate should be stocked as
spare parts.
Rotor Basket
Inspection of the rotor basket should be done on a regular basis (weekly) according to
the severity of conditions present. The basket will undergo varying forms of wear
depending on which specific conditions are present; such as coarseness of feed material,
the presence of scale or particulates in the process water, etc. See Figure 5.7-1 Rotor
Imbalance.
To inspect the basket for wear put the machine through a rinse cycle making sure the
basket is completely free of material. With the machine stopped, use backpressure
bypass valve (see drawings) to allow for water to enter the rotor from all of the water
injection holes. Visually inspect (through the inspection ports in lid) each hole to
determine if any seem enlarged or blocked.
A periodic (at least twice per year) removal of the lid should be done to thoroughly
inspect the rotor basket and replace if necessary. Remove the lip ring, launder cover and
clamp ring using caution not to damage the o-ring cords.
The rotor basket should lift straight up without difficulty using the holes provided for the
insertion of lifting eyebolts. Once the basket is removed inspect the water jacket for
excess material build-up and flush if necessary using the flushing valve attached to the
rotating union.
The rotor basket will remain functional with some of the holes enlarged or plugged, but it
is recommended that an additional basket be stocked as spare parts in order to allow for
a regularly scheduled change-out allowing for optimum performance. Re-assemble in the
reverse order of above with a generous amount of grease in the o-ring depression.
After re-assembly, check to make certain there are no water leaks. Water should only be
entering the rotor through the rotor basket holes.
Impeller/Baffle
The impeller and baffle are wear items. Remove the impeller by holding the rotor
stationary and using a wrench or socket to remove the impeller bolt. The impeller and
baffle should be stocked as spare parts.
Belt Tension
Belt tension is important to minimize slip and to prolong the life of the belts. In order to
insure proper tensioning of the EAGLE drive belt, the belt guard should be removed.
To adjust the tension of the drive belt, loosen the four motor mounting bolts and adjust
the two motor position SQ HD bolts until the drive belt is tensioned correctly. See 9.
Support Manuals for complete instructions. After following instructions, tighten the motor
position bolts and motor mounting bolts and re-check the belt tension. Check that belts or
sprockets do not rub on the belt guard. Replacement belts should be stocked.
6.2 Lubrication
Greasing Rotor Bearings
Bearings may heat up, particularly during the first few hours of operation and after
greasing. This is normal as the lubricants adjust to correct levels. The bearings may also
expel excess lubricant. Operating temperature range should not exceed 100° C.
The machine is equipped with a grease manifold where all lubrications other than the
rotating union can be performed.
TACONITE SEAL
UPPER BEARING
LOWER BEARING (1 of 3)
LOWER BEARING (2 of 3)
LOWER BEARING (3 of 3)
Grease the two rotor bearings while the unit is operating (rotating) as per the following
lubrication chart. For applications where the unit is exposed to severe splashing,
contamination, temperatures or other adverse environmental conditions, the bearings
must be lubricated more often.
These maintenance frequencies are assuming the machine is operating 24 hours per day
and 7 days per week. For other usage, the maintenance frequencies should be adjusted
accordingly.
Always lubricate with bearing turning, and do not mix greases. The only approved
grease is Mobil Mobilith SHC – 100. This is a super premium grease combining a
synthetic base fluid with a lithium complex thickener. It is NLGI 2 Grade with an operating
temperature range of -50ºC to 180ºC (-60ºF to 350ºF).
The standard motor for a Falcon concentrator is a BALDOR. The voltage, frequency,
frame size, RPM, and application for each machine may vary and lubrication
recommendations are tied to these.
For more information see section 3. of the BALDOR Installation and Operating Manual,
Maintenance & Troubleshooting, in Support Manuals.
If other greases are preferred, check with a local BALDOR Service Center for
recommendations.
Should the union develop a leak or seize due to bearing failure, rebuild kits are available
and should be stocked as spare parts. If significant wear occurs due to the presence of
cyanide or other chemicals, a stainless steel rotating union can be supplied by the
manufacturer or distributor.
To remove, make certain the water system pressure is bled to zero pressure. Remove
the supply hose, and then remove the six bolts that attach the union adapter to the
bottom of the shaft. Note the position of the o-ring during removal, this should be placed
inside the rotor shaft and up against the first outer shoulder.
Note: During disassembly of the rotating union, note any conditions that may have
caused premature failure of the union in order to eliminate further occurrences.
With the union assembly on the bench, the union adapter and the UHMW union guard
can be removed. The shaft of the union has two flat opposing surfaces to accept a
wrench, and by holding the shaft, the union adapter can be turned out. The UHMW union
guard may need to be heated slightly to allow easier separation from the shaft.
Upon re-assembly use caution to keep the union clean of contamination. Re-assemble in
the reverse order of disassembly. Turn water system back on and check for leaks prior to
resuming operation.
The EAGLE drive belt must be replaced with the correct belt to insure proper contact with
the accompanying sprockets. See 9. Support Manuals for complete details.
To replace the drive belt, first disconnect and remove the rotating union and then the belt
guard. Use caution in preventing any contamination or damage of the union during
disassembly. Next, loosen the belt tension by loosing the motor mounting bolts and the
motor positioning bolts, and remove the belts. Before installing new belts, inspect the
sprockets for alignment, wear or damage. In some cases material falling down onto the
sprockets may cause wear.
After following the instructions in the Eagle Manual to tension the belt, tighten the motor
position bolts and motor mounting bolts and re-check the tension. Check that belts or
sprockets do not rub on the belt guard.
Sprockets
Do not change the rotor or motor sprocket size. To replace the rotor or motor sprockets,
first remove the rotating union, belt guard, and drive belt as described in previous
sections. Use caution in preventing any contamination or damage of the union during
disassembly.
To remove the rotor sprocket and bushing, first remove the three bolts holding the
tapered bushing into the sprocket. Then insert two or more of these bolts into the
threaded holes in the bushing flange (to act as jacking screws) and tighten to push the
bushing out of the sprocket.
Upon re-assembly of the sprocket to the rotor shaft or motor shaft use grease or an anti-
seize compound on the bushing ID, shaft, and bolts but not on the taper between the
bushing and the sprocket. Position the sprocket on the shaft so that the belts are in line
and tighten the three 3/8" bushing/sprocket draw bolts evenly and progressively, to about
30 ft/lbs.
To remove the rotor bowl first remove the lid, lip ring, top plate, rotor basket, and impeller
/ baffle.
Attach a lifting eye bolt to the threaded ¾” hole vacated by the impeller/baffle. Next,
remove the four ¾” bolts in the bottom of the rotor bowl fastening the bowl to the rotor
base plate. Lifting gently, separate the bowl from the base plate.
The rotor bowl surface should be prepared by sand blasting before re-lining. First,
separate the rotor bowl from the rotor base by removing the bolts and using these same
bolts to jack the bowl and base apart.
With all the rotor bowl components now separated, repair as necessary. In addition to
rubber, linatex is also an excellent liner. This product is readily available in most areas of
the world.
For installations using two or more machines, it is recommended that a spare rotor bowl
be stocked as a spare part, to minimize off-line time. An exchange program for rubber
lining the rotor bowl can be set up with the manufacturer or nearest distributor to
minimize cost. For more information see section 6.8 Rubber Lining or contact the nearest
representative or the factory.
Removing the rotor drive shaft will be necessary for bearing changes, and may include
the removal of the bearing cartridge itself. However, it should be much easier to remove
the drive shaft from the bearing cartridge with the cartridge remaining attached to the
machine.
After separating the rotor bowl from the drive shaft, remove the tailings launder if still
attached. Next disconnect all piping to the concentrate launder, and remove. Also
remove the rotating union, drive belt guard and guard plate, rotor sprocket, and the seal
protecting ring around the drive shaft flange.
Disconnect the grease fittings, and remove the eight bolts and washers holding the upper
bearing cap. Next, slide the L.E.R. sub assembly off by removing the bolts attaching it to
the lower bearing cap.
Now insert a jack directly under the drive shaft, with a block of wood between. Gently
apply pressure to the drive shaft until it is obvious that there is free movement upwards.
The drive shaft can now be lifted by using the holes in the flange to install eyebolts, or
other approved lifting devices. Observe the location and condition of the o-ring, and
replace if necessary.
Use caution in lifting and moving the drive shaft; do not allow the machined bearing
surfaces to contact any metal surfaces. Lay the drive shaft assembly upside down, with
the shaft pointing upwards.
Upper Bearing
To remove the bearings, first remove the drive shaft from the machine as instructed in
the previous sections, and place in a clean location with the flange end down.
Next, remove the external circlip. Then heat the inner race of the lower cylindrical roller
bearing and slide off the shaft. Try to heat the race without heating the shaft by moving
quickly around the race with a cutting / heating torch. Use caution to avoid damaging the
shaft. The lower bearing outer race should remain in the bearing cartridge.
Next, remove the bearing locknut followed by the bearing lock washer. The bearing
spacer can then be heated and slid off the shaft. If the spacer remains locked on the
shaft, use a cutting torch to remove this without damaging the shaft.
Then cut off the outer race from the upper four-point bearing, and heat the inner race
halves (the inner race is split into two pieces) and remove. Again, use caution in heating
the inner races, and only cut if necessary.
It is recommended that the taconite seal be replaced each time the upper bearing is
removed.
Lower Bearing
It will be necessary to remove the bearing cartridge to better access the lower bearing.
First remove the lower bearing cap, then cut the bearing out of the cartridge using great
care not to damage any machined surface. The grease distributor should be replaced.
Re-Assembly
Inspect all machined surfaces and repair, prepare and clean as necessary. Anti-seize
compound should only be used on slide fit components such as the upper outer bearing
race, L.E.R. sub-assembly, bearing canister caps, etc.
Do not use any anti-seize compound on any press fit components such as bearing inner
races or bearing surfaces on the drive shaft.
Use an oil bath or similar method to heat bearing inner races and the inner bearing
spacer. Heat to 80° C or 180° F for approximately 20 minutes.
Insert the lower bearing grease distributor and the outer race portion of the lower bearing
into the bearing cartridge as shown, and attach the lower bearing cap. Next, insert the
outer bearing spacer – housing into the bearing cartridge.
With the drive shaft standing with the flange down, mount the taconite seal with the three
setscrews loose. A new taconite seal may come complete with an outer housing, but this
should be discarded as the mating housing needed is incorporated into the bearing cap.
Apply a generous amount of grease before mounting the upper bearing cap. The seal
and cap should be loose. See section 6.2 Lubrication.
Next, mount the heated upper bearing inner race half, the outer race, and other inner
race half on the drive shaft, sliding these tight against the shoulder. The upper bearing
key slots should be facing the drive shaft flange. Then mount the heated bearing spacer
next to the bearing, followed by the bearing lock washer and locknut.
Turn the locknut until tight, and bend a tab of the lock washer to hold in place. Next,
mount the heated lower bearing inner race and circlip. Apply a generous amount of
grease to all areas of the bearings (approximately three tubes).
The drive shaft is now ready to insert into the bearing cartridge. It might be easiest to
mount the bearing cartridge on the machine for this assembly. Locate the o-ring in the
groove with a covering of grease.
As the drive shaft is lowered into the bearing cartridge guide the bottom through the
lower bearing outer race carefully to avoid nicking any surfaces. Before the drive shaft
bottoms out, insert and start the bolts to attach the upper bearing cap and locate the
bearing key slots. Once the drive shaft settles solidly spin the shaft to detect any “burrs”
or flat spots.
Tighten the upper bearing cap, raise the taconite seal approximately 1/16” above the
lowest position, and tighten the three setscrews in the seal. Next, slide the L.E.R. by
assembly on the shaft and bolt to the lower bearing cap.
Re-assemble the remainder of the machine in the reverse order of its disassembly.
Check that the rotor spins freely before starting, and that the rotor is centered inside the
tailings launder. Some adjustment is possible in the location of the bearing cartridge.
Start the machine and run at a moderately slow speed (20 Hz.) for approximately 10
minutes, checking the bearing temperature. Grease the bearings while the unit is rotating
as per section 6.2 Lubrication.
Next, remove the belt guard, belts and motor sprocket and bushing as described in
previous sections. Then remove three of the four motor plate mounting bolts, and use
one of the lower mounting bolts as a swivel point to swing the motor out from under the
frame.
The motor can be lifted using lifting straps attached to the lifting eye shaft. See BALDOR
Manual for more information.
It is recommended that re-lining the rotor, rotor baffle and lid with rubber be performed by
Factory Authorized Personnel and is usually best accomplished by shipping the
component to be re-lined back to the factory or the nearest suitable distributor.
Besides rubber, linatex also serves as a good liner. This product is readily available in
most areas of the world. Use care when using imitation materials, as these do not seem
to last as long as linatex.
IMPORTANT: Do not lay the machine down horizontally unless the bowl is first removed
as instructed in this manual.
Clean the machine inside and out and touch up paint all rust spots prior to lay-up and as
required thereafter.
The machine and AutoPac should be stored in a clean, dry and warm location to prevent
condensation and deterioration.
Motor and rotor bearings should be greased as per the maintenance instructions prior to
lay-up.
The preceding maintenance frequencies are assuming the machine is operating 24 hours
per day and 7 days per week. For other usage and under adverse conditions the
maintenance frequencies should be adjusted accordingly.

to personnel safety.
A-1
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1. Electric Shock Prevention
WARNING
z While power is on or when the inverter is running, do not open the front cover.
You may get an electric shock.
z Do not run the inverter with the front cover removed. Otherwise, you may access
the exposed high-voltage terminals or the charging part of the circuitry and get
an electric shock.
z If power is off, do not remove the front cover except for wiring or periodic
inspection. You may access the charged inverter circuits and get an electric
shock.
z Before starting wiring or inspection, switch power off, wait for more than 10
minutes, and check for residual voltage with a meter (refer to chapter 2 for
further details) etc.
z Earth the inverter.
z Any person who is involved in the wiring or inspection of this equipment should
be fully competent to do the work.
z Always install the inverter before wiring. Otherwise, you may get an electric
shock or be injured.
z Operate the switches and potentiometers with dry hands to prevent an electric
shock.
z Do not subject the cables to scratches, excessive stress, heavy loads or
pinching. Otherwise, you may get an electric shock.
z Do not change the cooling fan while power is on.
It is dangerous to change the cooling fan while power is on.
2. Fire Prevention
CAUTION
z Mount the inverter and brake resistor on an incombustible surface. Installing the
inverter directly on or near a combustible surface could lead to a fire.
z If the inverter has become faulty, switch off the inverter power. A continuous
flow of large current could cause a fire.
z When a brake resistor is used, use an alarm signal to switch power off.
Otherwise, the brake resistor will overheat abnormally due a brake transistor or
other fault, resulting in a fire.
z Do not connect a resistor directly to the DC terminals P(+), N(−). This could
cause a fire.
A-2
3. Injury Prevention
CAUTION
z Apply only the voltage specified in the instruction manual to each terminal to
prevent damage etc.
z Ensure that the cables are connected to the correct terminals. Otherwise,
damage etc. may occur.
z Always make sure that polarity is correct to prevent damage etc.
z While power is on and for some time after power-off, do not touch the inverter or
brake resistor as they are hot and you may get burnt.
4. Additional instructions
Also note the following points to prevent an accidental failure, injury, electric shock, etc.
CAUTION
z When carrying products, use correct lifting gear to prevent injury.
z Do not stack the inverter boxes higher than the number recommended.
z Ensure that installation position and material can withstand the weight of the
inverter. Install according to the information in the Instruction Manual.
z Do not operate if the inverter is damaged or has parts missing.
z Do not hold the inverter by the front cover or operation panel; it may fall off.
z Do not stand or rest heavy objects on the inverter.
z Check the inverter mounting orientation is correct.
z Prevent screws, wire fragments or other conductive bodies or oil or other
flammable substance from entering the inverter.
z Do not drop the inverter, or subject it to impact.
z Use the inverter under the following environmental conditions:
Ambient Constant torque : -10°C to +50°C (14°F to 122 °F)
temperature (non-freezing)
Ambient humidity 90%RH or less (non-condensing)
Environment
Storage
-20°C to +65°C * (-4°F to 149 °F)
temperature
Indoors (free from corrosive gas, flammable gas, oil mist, dust
Ambience
and dirt)
Maximum 1000m (3280.80 feet) above sea level for standard
Altitude, vibration operation. After that derate by 3% for every extra 500m
(1640.40 feet) up to 2500m (8202.00 feet) (91%).
*Temperatures applicable for a short time, e.g. in transit.
A-3
(2) Wiring
CAUTION
z Do not fit capacitive equipment such as a power factor correction capacitor,
radio noise filter or surge suppressor to the output of the inverter.
z The connection orientation of the output cables U, V, W to the motor will affect
the direction of rotation of the motor.
CAUTION
z Check all parameters, and ensure that the machine will not be damaged by a
sudden start-up.
(4) Operation
WARNING
z When you have chosen the retry function, stay away from the equipment as it
will restart suddenly after an alarm stop.
z The [STOP] key is valid only when the appropriate function setting has been
made. Prepare an emergency stop switch separately.
z Make sure that the start signal is off before resetting the inverter alarm. A failure
to do so may restart the motor suddenly.
z The load used should be a three-phase induction motor only. Connection of any
other electrical equipment to the inverter output may damage the equipment.
z Do not modify the equipment.
CAUTION
z The electronic overcurrent protection does not guarantee protection of the
motor from overheating.
z Do not use a magnetic contactor on the inverter input for frequent
starting/stopping of the inverter.
z Use a noise filter to reduce the effect of electromagnetic interference. Otherwise
nearby electronic equipment may be affected.
z Take measures to suppress harmonics. Otherwise power harmonics from the
inverter may heat/damage the power capacitor and generator.
A-4
CAUTION
z When a 400V class motor is inverter-driven, it should be insulation-enhanced or
surge voltages suppressed. Surge voltages attributale to the wiring constants
may occur at the motor terminals, deteriorating the insulation of the motor.
z When parameter clear or all clear is performed, each parameter returns to the
factory setting. Re-set the required parameters before starting operation.
z The inverter can be easily set for high-speed operation. Before changing its
setting, fully examine the performances of the motor and machine.
z In addition to the inverter's holding function, install a holding device to ensure
safety.
z Before running an inverter which had been stored for a long period, always
perform inspection and test operation.
CAUTION
z Provide a safety backup such as an emergency brake which will prevent the
machine and equipment from hazardous conditions if the inverter fails.
CAUTION
z Do not carry out a megger (insulation resistance) test on the control circuit of
the inverter.
CAUTION
z Treat as industrial waste.

6) Connect only the recommended optional brake resistor between the terminals P-PR
(+ - PR). Keep terminals P-PR (+ - PR) of 0.1K or 0.2K open.
These terminals must not be shorted.
0.1K and 0.2K do not accept the brake resistor. Keep terminals P-PR (+ - PR) open.
Also, never short these terminals.
7) Electromagnetic wave interference
The input/output (main circuit) of the inverter includes harmonic components, which
may interfere with the communication devices (such as AM radios) used near the
inverter. In this case, install the FR-BIF optional radio noise filter (for use in the input
side only) or FR-BSF01 or FR-BLF line noise filter to minimize interference.
8) Do not install a power capacitor, surge suppressor or radio noise filter (FR-BIF 2
option) in the output side of the inverter.
This will cause the inverter to trip or the capacitor and surge suppressor to be
damaged. If any of the above devices are installed, immediately remove them.
(When using the FR-BIF radio noise filter with a single-phase power supply, connect
it to the input side of the inverter after isolating the T phase securely.)
9) When rewiring after operation, make sure that the POWER lamp has gone off, and
when more than 10 minutes has elapsed after power-off, check with a meter etc.
that the voltage is zero. After that, start rewiring work. For some time after power-off,
there is a dangerous voltage in the capacitor.

Notes on Grounding
z Leakage currents flow in the inverter. To prevent an electric shock, the inverter
and motor must be grounded.
z Use the dedicated ground terminal to ground the inverter. (Do not use the screw
in the case, chassis, etc.) For the earth connection avoid direct contact between
aluminium and copper. Tin-plated cable lugs can be used if the plating does not
contain zinc. When tightening the screws take care not to damage the thread in
the aluminium frame.
z The ground cable should be as thick as possible. Use the cable whose gauge is
equal to or larger than those indicated in the following table, and make its length
as short as possible. The grounding point should be as near as possible to the
inverter to minimize the ground cable length.

33
INSTALLATION AND WIRING
2) If the machine must not be restarted when power is restored after a power failure,
provide a magnetic contactor in the inverter's primary circuit and also make up a
sequence which will not switch on the start signal.
If the start signal (start switch) remains on after a power failure, the inverter will
automatically restart as soon as the power is restored.
3) Since the input signals to the control circuit are on a low level, use two or more
parallel micro signal contacts or a twin contact for contact inputs to prevent a contact
fault.
4) Do not apply a large voltage to the contact input terminals (e.g. STF) of the control
circuit.
5) Do not apply a voltage directly to the alarm output signal terminals (A, B, C).
Always apply a voltage to these terminals via a relay coil, lamp, etc.
6) Make sure that the specifications and rating match the system requirements.

1) Basic measures
y Do not run the power cables (I/O cables) and signal cables of the inverter in
parallel with each other and do not bundle them.
y Use twisted shield cables for the detector connecting and control signal cables
and connect the sheathes of the shield cables to terminal SD.
y Ground the inverter, motor, etc. at one point.
2) Measures against noise which enters and causes misoperation of the inverter
When devices which generate noise (devices which use magnetic contactors,
magnetic brakes, many relays, for example) are installed near the inverter, the
inverter may misoperate due to noise. The following measures must be taken:
y Provide surge suppressors for devices that generate noise to suppress noise.
y Fit data line filters (refer to page 39) to signal cables.
y Ground the shields of the detector connection and control signal cables with cable
clamp metal.
36

3) Measures against noises which are radiated by the inverter causing misoperation of
peripheral devices.
Inverter-generated noises are largely classified into those radiated by the cables
connected to the inverter and inverter main circuit (I/O), those electromagnetically
and electrostatically inducted to the signal cables of the peripheral devices close to
the main circuit power supply, and those transmitted through the power supply
cables.

<Example>
Note: 1. The earth leakage circuit breaker should be installed to the primary (power
supply) side of the inverter.
2. Ground fault in the secondary side of the inverter can be detected at the
running frequency of 120Hz or lower.
3. In the connection neutral point grounded system, the sensitivity current
becomes worse for ground fault in the inverter secondary side. Hence, the
protective grounding of the load equipment should be class D grounding (10Ω
or less).
4. When the breaker is grounded on the secondary side of the inverter, it may be
unnecessarily operated by harmonics if the effective value is less than the
rating. In this case, note that the eddy current and hysteresis loss increase
and temperature rises.
* For the leakage current value of the noise filter installed on the inverter input
side, contact the corresponding filter manufacturer.

2) Compliance
We understand that the transistorized inverters themselves are not covered
directly by the EMC Directive. However, the EMC Directive applies to
machines/equipment into which transistorized inverters have been incorporated,
and these machines and equipment must carry the CE marks. Hence, we
prepared the technical information "EMC Installation Guidelines" (information
number BCN-A21041-202) so that machines and equipment incorporating
transistorized inverters may conform to the EMC Directive more easily.
2) Compliance
We have self-confirmed our inverters as products compliant to the Low Voltage
Directive and place the CE mark on the inverters.

3) Outline of instructions
* In the 400V class inverters, the rated input voltage range is three-phase,
380V to 415V, 50Hz/60Hz.
* Connect the equipment to the earth securely. Do not use an earth leakage circuit
breaker as an electric shock protector without connecting the equipment to the earth.
* Wire the earth terminal independently. (Do not connect two or more cables to
one terminal.)
* The wire size on pages 20 and 22 are shown for following conditions
y Ambient Temp : 40°C (104°F) maximum
y Wire installation : On wall without ducts or conduits
If conditions are different from above, select appropriate wire according to EN
60204 ANNEX C TABLE 5.
* Use the no-fuse breaker and magnetic contactor which conform to the EN or
IEC Standard.
Design notice : Where residual-current-operated protective device (RCD) is
used for protection in case of direct or indirect contact, only
RCD of Type B is allowed on the supply side of this
Electronic Equipment (EE). Otherwise another protective
measure shall be applied such as separation of the EE from
the environment by double or reinforced insulation or
isolation of EE and supply system by a transformer. (Extract
from EN51078)
* Use the inverter under the conditions of overvoltage category II and
contamination level 2 or higher specified in IEC664.
(a) To meet the overvoltage category II, insert an EN or IEC standard-

3.1 Pre-Operation Information
The inverter can be operated in any of "PU operation mode", "external operation
mode", "combined operation mode" and "communication operation mode". Prepare
required instruments and parts according to the operation mode. For the way of
changing the operation mode, refer to page 55.
(1) External operation mode
(factory setting Pr. 79 "operation mode selection" = 0)
Pr. 79 "operation mode selection" is factory-set to 0 and the external operation mode is
selected at power-on.
The inverter is operated using an external start signal and an
external frequency setting signal.
Preparation
y Start signal..........................Switch, relay, etc.
y Frequency setting signal.....0 to 5V, 0 to 10V or 4 to
20mADC signals from the
external potentiometer or from
outside the inverter
Note: 1. Operation cannot be started by the start signal alone. Both the start signal
and frequency setting signal are required to run the inverter.
49
(3) Combined operation mode 1 (Pr. 79 "operation mode selection" = 3)
The start signal is an external signal.
The frequency setting signal is set using the optional control
panel or parameter unit.

z Safety
Perform test operation after making sure that safety is ensured if the machine
should become out of control.
z Machine
Make sure that the machine is free of damage.
z Parameters
Set the parameter values to match the operating machine (system) environment.
z Test operation
Perform test operation and make sure that the machine operates safely under light
load at a low frequency. After that, start operation.
Since the Pr. 240 "Soft-PWM setting" value is factory-set to select Soft-PWM
control, the tone is different from that in the conventional non-low acoustic noise
mode, this is not a fault.

Note: 1. Indicates the parameter of which setting is ignored when the general-
purpose magnetic flux vector control mode is selected.
2. Since calibration is made before shipment from the factory, the settings differ
slightly between inverters. The inverter is preset to provide a frequency
slightly higher than 60Hz.
3. When the control panel is used and the setting is 100Hz or more, the setting
increments are 0.1Hz.
4. The setting depends on the inverter capacity: (0.1K to 3.7K)/(5.5K to 7.5K).
5. Set to 85% of the rated inverter current for the 0.1K to 0.75K.
6. If "2" is set in Pr. 77 (parameter write inhibit selection), the setting cannot be
changed during operation.
7. The half-tone screened parameters allow their settings to be changed during
operation if "0" (factory setting) has been set in Pr. 77 (parameter write
inhibit selection). (However, the Pr. 72 value may be changed during PU
operation only.)
8. The setting range changes with the inverter: 0.2kW to 7.5kW, 9999 for the
400V class.
9. Pr. 249 is not available for the 400V class.
10. Setting may be made on the 400V class inverter only. 4
11. The setting depends on the inverter capacity: 4% for the FR-E540-5.5K and

PARAMETERS
<Setting>
y Use Pr. 1 to set the upper limit of the output frequency. If the frequency of the
frequency command entered is higher than the setting, the output frequency is
clamped at the maximum frequency.
To perform operation over 120Hz, set the upper limit of the output frequency in Pr. 18.
(When the Pr. 18 value is set, Pr. 1 automatically changes to the frequency in Pr. 18.
Also, when the Pr. 1 value is set, Pr. 18 automatically changes to the frequency in
Pr. 1.)

y Set the output current level at which the output frequency will be adjusted to prevent

y For high-speed operation at or over the motor base frequency, acceleration may not
be made because the motor current does not increase.
To improve the operation characteristics of the motor in such a case, the stall
prevention level in the high-frequency range can be reduced. This is effective for
operation of a centrifugal separator up to the high-speed range. Normally, set 60Hz
in Pr. 66 and 100% in Pr. 23.
y For operation in the high-frequency range, the current in the locked motor state is
smaller than the rated output current of the inverter and the inverter does not result
in an alarm (protective function is not activated) if the motor is at a stop. To improve
this and activate the alarm, the stall prevention level can be reduced.

PARAMETERS
y Use Pr. 68 to set the waiting time from when an inverter alarm occurs until a restart
in the range 0.1 to 360 seconds.
y Reading the Pr. 69 value provides the cumulative number of successful restart
times made by retry. The setting of "0" erases the cumulative number of times.
Note: 1. The cumulative number in Pr. 69 is incremented by "1" when retry operation
is regarded as successful, i.e. when normal operation is continued without
the protective function (major fault) activated during a period five times
longer than the time set in Pr. 68.
2. If the protective function (major fault) is activated consecutively within a
period five times longer than the above waiting time, the control panel may
show data different from the most recent data or the parameter unit
(FR-PU04) may show data different from the first retry data. The data stored
as the error reset for retry is only that of the protective function (major fault)
which was activated the first time.
3. When an inverter alarm is reset by the retry function at the retry time, the
stored data of the electronic over current protection, etc. are not cleared.
(Different from the power-on reset.)
CAUTION
When you have selected the retry function, stay away from the motor and
machine unless required. They will start suddenly (after the reset time
has elapsed) after occurrence of an alarm.
When you have selected the retry function, apply the supplied CAUTION

Note: 1. By entering the reset signal (RES) during operation, the inverter shuts off
output while it is reset, the data of the electronic overcurrent protection and
regenerative brake duty are reset, and the motor coasts.
2. The PU disconnection detection function judges that the PU is disconnected
when it is removed from the inverter for more than 1 second. If the PU had
been disconnected before power-on, it is not judged as an alarm.
3. To resume operation, reset the inverter after confirming that the PU is
connected securely.
4. The Pr. 75 value can be set any time. Also, if parameter (all) clear is
executed, this setting will not return to the initial value.
5. When the inverter is stopped by the PU stop function, PS is displayed but an
alarm is not output.
When the PU connector is used for RS-485 communication operation, the
reset selection and PU stop selection functions are valid but the PU
disconnection detection function is invalid.

If any error is found in the data received by the inverter, its definition is sent back to
the computer together with the NAK code. (Refer to page 129.)
Note: 1. When the data from the computer has an error, the inverter will not accept
that data.
2. Any data communication, e.g. run command, monitoring, is started when the
computer gives a communication request. Without the computer's command,
the inverter does not return any data. For monitoring, therefore, design the
program to cause the computer to provide a data read request as required.

CAUTION
When the inverter's permissible communication time interval is not set,
interlocks are provided to disable operation to prevent hazardous
conditions. Always set the communication check time interval before
starting operation.
Data communication is not started automatically but is made only once
when the computer provides a communication request. If communication
is disabled during operation due to signal cable breakage etc, the inverter
cannot be stopped. When the communication check time interval has
elapsed, the inverter will come to an alarm stop (E.PUE).
4
The inverter can be coasted to a stop by switching on its RES signal or
by switching power off.
If communication is broken due to signal cable breakage, computer fault
etc, the inverter does not detect such a fault. This should be fully noted.

PARAMETERS
When the inverter's output current falls to "0", torque will not be generated. This may
cause a gravity drop when the inverter is used in vertical lift application.
To prevent this, the output current "zero" signal can be output from the inverter to close
the mechanical brake when the output current has fallen to "zero".

PARAMETERS
The "bias" and "gain" functions are used to adjust the relationship between the input
signal entered from outside the inverter (to set the output frequency), i.e. 0 to 5VDC,
0 to 10VDC or 4 to 20mADC, and the output frequency.
z Use Pr. 902 to set the bias of the voltage signal and use Pr. 903 to set its gain.
z Use Pr. 904 to set the bias of the current signal and use Pr. 905 to set its gain.

(1)The frequency setting voltage (current) biases and gains may be adjusted by any of
the three following ways:
1) Any point can be adjusted with a voltage applied across terminals 2-5 (with a
current flowing across terminals 4-5).
2) Any point can be adjusted with no voltage applied across terminals 2-5 (with no 4
current flowing across terminals 4-5).
3) Only the bias and gain frequencies are adjusted and the voltage (current) is not
adjusted.

5.1 FUNCTIONS
Errors (Alarms)
If any fault has occurred in the inverter, the corresponding protective function is
activated to bring the inverter to an alarm stop and automatically give the
corresponding error (alarm) indication on the optional control panel or the panel
display.
If your fault does not correspond to any of the following errors or if you have any other
problem, please contact your sales representative.
• Retention of alarm output signal .........When the magnetic contactor (MC) provided on the
power supply side of the inverter is opened at the
activation of the protective function, the inverter's
control power will be lost and the alarm output will not
be held.
• Alarm indication ..................................When the protective function is activated, the
operation panel display automatically switches to the
above indication.
• Resetting method ...............................When the protective function is activated, the inverter
output is kept stopped. Unless reset, therefore, the
inverter cannot restart. Switch power off once, then on
again; or apply RES signal for more than 0.1 seconds.
Kept on, "Err." appears (flickers) to indicate that the
inverter is being reset.
• When the protective function is activated, take the corresponding corrective action, then
reset the inverter, and resume operation.

PRESSURE REDUCING VALVE

106/206 –2PR –2SC
CONTENTS
DRAWING A-0273F......................................................................................... 12
Description:
Model 106/206-2PR-2SC is a pilot operated pressure reducing valve designed to automatically
reduce a high inlet pressure into a lower outlet pressure. The valve will maintain a relatively
steady downstream pressure regardless of fluctuations in the supply pressure or flow rate. The
valve has two pressure reducing pilots and solenoid pilots that allows for selection between
the two pilot set points and to close the valve fully.
Unless otherwise specified, the valve will be assembled for service temperatures to 100 F (40
C). Higher temperature ratings are available - consult SINGER VALVE for details.
Description Of Operation:
The valve (1) is normally open when pressure is applied to the valve inlet. When the same
pressure is applied to the bonnet, the valve closes tight. Refer to ‘Installation, Operation and
Maintenance Instructions’. By controlling the pressure in the bonnet, the valve can be made to
open fully, close tight or open partially.
The bonnet pressure (and therefore the position of the valve) is controlled by a pilot circuit
consisting of a fixed restriction (3), two solenoid pilots (5 & 6) and two pressure-reducing pilots
(7 & 8).
When flow is required, the pressure reducing pilot senses a drop in its outlet pressure and
opens. The flow through the pilot is greater than flow through the fixed restriction. The bonnet
pressure is reduced and the valve opens to supply the demand. The speed of opening is
determined by the setting of the flow control (4). Refer to Model 26 instructions for details and
adjustment. Under flowing conditions the pressure-reducing pilot reacts to small changes in
pressure to modulate the bonnet pressure (and valve position) as required to keep the
downstream pressure constant. Note that the main valve position follows the position of the
pilot. When the pilot closes, the main valve closes. When the pilot opens, the main valve
opens.
A “high” pressure setting can be selected by energizing solenoid (5) and de-energizing
solenoid (6). A “low” pressure setting can be selected by energizing solenoid (6) and
energizing solenoid (5). In the event of a power failure solenoid (5) will be in its normally
closed state. This will direct inlet pressure to the cover causing the main valve to close. To
select a “low” pressure when there is a power failure, open by-pass ball valve (9) and close
pilot ball valve (10C). To select a “high” pressure when there is a power failure, open by-pass
ball valve (9) and close (10D). Note this will also “override” the solenoid selection when power
is available to both solenoids. Ensure ball valves (10C & 10D) are open and by-pass ball valve
(9) is closed when power is restored.
Installation:
1) For main valve installation refer to 106/206-PG IOM ‘Installation, Operation and
Maintenance Instructions’.
2) Check solenoid for correct voltage and pressure.
• WARNING: NEVER ENERGIZE AN AC SOLENOID COIL WHEN THE COIL IS
REMOVED FROM THE SOLENOID PILOT.
3) Wire the solenoid to the customer supplied controls and adhere to all local codes and
requirements.

Warning statement indicates a possible unsafe condition that can cause harm to personnel. A Caution
statement indicates a condition that can cause damage to equipment.
Important: This instruction manual is not intended to include a comprehensive listing of all details for all
procedures required for installation, operation and maintenance. This manual describes general
guidelines that apply to most of the motor products shipped by Baldor. If you have a question
about a procedure or are uncertain about any detail, Do Not Proceed. Please contact your Baldor
distributor for more information or clarification.
Before you install, operate or perform maintenance, become familiar with the following:
S NEMA Publication MG-2, Safety Standard for Construction and guide
for Selection, Installation and Use of Electric Motors and Generators.
S The National Electrical Code
S Local codes and Practices
Limited Warranty
1. Baldor Electric motors are warranted for a period of one (1) year, from date of shipment from the factory or factory
warehouse against defects in material and workmanship. To allow for stocking and/or fabrication period and to
provide one year of actual service, the warranty period is extended for an additional period of six (6) months for a
total of eighteen (18) months from the original date of shipment from the factory or factory warehouse stock. In no
case will the warranty period be extended for a longer period. Baldor extends this limited warranty to each buyer
of the electric motor for the purpose of resale and to the original purchaser for use.
2. Baldor will, at its option repair or replace a motor which fails due to defects in material or workmanship during the
warranty period if:
a. the purchaser presents the defective motor at or ships it prepaid to, the Baldor plant in Fort Smith, Arkansas
or one of the Baldor Authorized Service Centers and
b. the purchaser gives written notification concerning the motor and the claimed defect including the date
purchased, the task performed by the Baldor motor and the problem encountered.
3. Baldor will not pay the cost of removal of any electric motor from any equipment, the cost of delivery to Fort Smith,
Arkansas or a Baldor Authorized Service Center, or the cost of any incidental or consequential damages resulting
from the claimed defects. (Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential
damages, so the above exclusion may not apply to you.) Any implied warranty given by laws shall be limited to
the duration of the warranty period hereunder. (Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied
warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to you.)
4. Baldor Authorized Service Centers, when convinced to their satisfaction that a Baldor motor developed defects in
material or workmanship within the warranty period, are authorized to proceed with the required repairs to fulfill
Baldor’s warranty when the cost of such repairs to be paid by Baldor does not exceed Baldor’s warranty repair
allowance. Baldor will not pay overtime premium repair charges without prior written authorization.
5. The cost of warranty repairs made by centers other than Baldor Authorized Service Centers WILL NOT be paid
unless first authorized in writing by Baldor.
6. Claims by a purchaser that a motor is defective even when a failure results within one hour after being placed into
service are not always justified. Therefore, Baldor Authorized Service Centers must determine from the condition
of the motor as delivered to the center whether or not the motor is defective. If in the opinion of a Baldor
Authorized Service Center, a motor did not fail as a result of defects in material or workmanship, the center is to
proceed with repairs only if the purchaser agrees to pay for such repairs. If the decision is in dispute, the
purchaser should still pay for the repairs and submit the paid invoice and the Authorized Service Center’s signed
service report to Baldor for further consideration.
7. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state.
Note that Baldor Super–ER Premium Efficiency electric motors are warranted for a period of three (3) years.
All other terms and conditions of the Limited Warranty statement apply.
WARNING: Do not touch electrical connections before you first ensure that
power has been disconnected. Electrical shock can cause serious
or fatal injury. Only qualified personnel should attempt the
installation, operation and maintenance of this equipment.
WARNING: Be sure the system is properly grounded before applying power.
Do not apply AC power before you ensure that all grounding
instructions have been followed. Electrical shock can cause
serious or fatal injury. National Electrical Code and Local codes
must be carefully followed.
WARNING: Avoid extended exposure to machinery with high noise levels. Be
sure to wear ear protective devices to reduce harmful effects to
your hearing.
WARNING: This equipment may be connected to other machinery that has
rotating parts or parts that are driven by this equipment. Improper
use can cause serious or fatal injury. Only qualified personnel
should attempt to install operate or maintain this equipment.
WARNING: Do not by-pass or disable protective devices or safety guards.
Safety features are designed to prevent damage to personnel or
equipment. These devices can only provide protection if they
remain operative.
WARNING: Avoid the use of automatic reset devices if the automatic restarting
of equipment can be hazardous to personnel or equipment.
WARNING: Be sure the load is properly coupled to the motor shaft before
applying power. The shaft key must be fully captive by the load
device. Improper coupling can cause harm to personnel or
equipment if the load decouples from the shaft during operation.
WARNING: Use proper care and procedures that are safe during handling,
lifting, installing, operating and maintaining operations.
Improper methods may cause muscle strain or other harm.
WARNING: Before performing any motor maintenance procedure, be sure that
the equipment connected to the motor shaft cannot cause shaft
rotation. If the load can cause shaft rotation, disconnect the load
from the motor shaft before maintenance is performed. Unexpected
mechanical rotation of the motor parts can cause injury or motor
damage.
WARNING: Disconnect all electrical power from the motor windings and
accessory devices before disassembly of the motor. Electrical
shock can cause serious or fatal injury.
WARNING: Do not use these motors in the presence of flammable or
combustible vapors or dust. These motors are not designed for
atmospheric conditions that require explosion proof operation.
If you have any questions or are uncertain about any statement or procedure, or if you
require additional information please contact your Baldor distributor or an Authorized
Baldor Service Center.
Receiving Each Baldor Electric Motor is thoroughly tested at the factory and carefully packaged for
shipment. When you receive your motor, there are several things you should do
immediately.
1. Observe the condition of the shipping container and report any damage
immediately to the commercial carrier that delivered your motor.
2. Verify that the part number of the motor you received is the same as the part
number listed on your purchase order.
Storage If the motor is not put into service immediately, the motor must be stored in a clean, dry
and warm location. Several precautionary steps must be performed to avoid motor
damage during storage.
1. Use a “Megger” periodically to ensure that the integrity of the winding insulation
has been maintained. Record the Megger readings. Immediately investigate
any significant drop in insulation resistance.
2. Do not lubricate bearings during storage. Motor bearings are packed with
grease at the factory. Excessive grease can damage insulation quality.
3. Rotate motor shaft at least 10 turns every two months during storage (more
frequently if possible). This will prevent bearing damage due to storage.
4. If the storage location is damp or humid, the motor windings must be protected
from moisture. This can be done by applying power to the motors’ space
heater (if available) while the motor is in storage.
Unpacking Each Baldor motor is packaged for ease of handling and to prevent entry of
contaminants.
1. To avoid condensation inside the motor, do not unpack until the motor has
reached room temperature. (Room temperature is the temperature of the room
in which it will be installed). The packing provides insulation from temperature
changes during transportation.
2. When the motor has reached room temperature, remove all protective wrapping
material from the motor.
Handling The motor should be lifted using the lifting lugs or eye bolts provided.
1. Use the lugs or eye bolts provided to lift the motor. Never attempt to lift the
motor and additional equipment connected to the motor by this method. The
lugs or eye bolts provided are designed to lift only the motor. Never lift the
motor by the motor shaft.
2. If the motor must be mounted to a plate with the driven equipment such as
pump, compressor etc., it may not be possible to lift the motor alone. For this
case, the assembly should be lifted by a sling around the mounting base. The
entire assembly can be lifted as an assembly for installation. Do not lift using
the motor lugs or eye bolts provided.
Overview Installation should conform to the National Electrical Code as well as local codes and
practices. When other devices are coupled to the motor shaft, be sure to install
protective devices to prevent future accidents. Some protective devices include,
coupling, belt guard, chain guard, shaft covers etc. These protect against accidental
contact with moving parts. Machinery that is accessible to personnel should provide
further protection in the form of guard rails, screening, warning signs etc.
Location The motor should be installed in an area that is protected from direct sunlight, corrosives,
harmful gases or liquids, dust, metallic particles, and vibration. Exposure to these can
reduce the operating life and degrade performance. Be sure to allow clearance for
ventilation and access for cleaning, repair, service and inspections. Ventilation is
extremely important. Be sure the area for ventilation is not obstructed. Obstructions will
limit the free passage of air. Motors get warm and the heat must be dissipated to prevent
damage.
These motors are not designed for atmospheric conditions that require explosion proof
operation. They must NOT be used in the presence of flammable or combustible vapors
or dust.
1. ODP motors are suitable only for indoor applications.
2. TEFC motors are suitable for indoor or outdoor standard service applications.
Mounting The motor must be securely installed to a rigid foundation or mounting surface to
minimize vibration and maintain alignment between the motor and shaft load. Failure to
provide a proper mounting surface may cause vibration, misalignment and bearing
damage.
Foundation caps and sole plates are designed to act as spacers for the equipment they
support. If these devices are used, be sure that they are evenly supported by the
foundation or mounting surface.
After installation is complete and accurate alignment of the motor and load is
accomplished, the base should be grouted to the foundation to maintain this alignment.
The standard motor base is designed for horizontal or vertical mounting. Adjustable or
sliding rails are designed for horizontal mounting only. Consult your Baldor distributor or
authorized Baldor Service Center for further information.
Alignment Accurate alignment of the motor with the driven equipment is extremely important.
1. Direct Coupling
For direct drive, use flexible couplings if possible. Consult the drive or
equipment manufacturer for more information. Mechanical vibration and
roughness during operation may indicate poor alignment. Use dial indicators to
check alignment. The space between coupling hubs should be maintained as
recommended by the coupling manufacturer.
2. End-Play Adjustment
The axial position of the motor frame with respect to its load is also extremely
important. The motor bearings are not designed for excessive external axial
thrust loads. Improper adjustment will cause failure.
3. Pulley Ratio
The pulley ratio should not exceed 8:1.
4. Belt Drive
Align sheaves carefully to minimize belt wear and axial bearing loads (see
End-Play Adjustment). Belt tension should be sufficient to prevent belt slippage
at rated speed and load. However, belt slippage may occur during starting.
Caution: Do not over tension belts.
Doweling & Bolting After proper alignment is verified, dowel pins should be inserted through the motor feet
into the foundation. This will maintain the correct motor position should motor removal be
required. (Baldor motors are designed for doweling.)
1. Drill dowel holes in diagonally opposite motor feet in the locations provided.
2. Drill corresponding holes in the foundation.
3. Ream all holes.
4. Install proper fitting dowels.
5. Mounting bolts must be carefully tightened to prevent changes in alignment.
Use a flat washer and lock washer under each nut or bolt head to hold the
motor feet secure. Flanged nuts or bolts may be used as an alternative to
washers.
Power Connection Motor and control wiring, overload protection, disconnects, accessories and grounding
should conform to the National Electrical Code and local codes and practices.
Conduit Box For ease of making connections, an oversize conduit box is provided. The box can be
rotated 360° in 90° increments. Auxiliary conduit boxes are provided on some motors for
accessories such as space heaters, RTD’s etc.
AC Power Connect the motor leads as shown on the connection diagram located on the name plate
or inside the cover on the conduit box. Be sure the following guidelines are met:
1. AC power is within ±10% of rated voltage with rated frequency. (See motor
name plate for ratings).
OR
2. AC power is within ±5% of rated frequency with rated voltage.
OR
3. A combined variation in voltage and frequency of ±10% (sum of absolute
values) of rated values, provided the frequency variation does not exceed ±5%
of rated frequency.
Performance within these voltage and frequency variations are shown in Figure 2-1.

First Time Start Up Be sure that all power to motor and accessories is off. Be sure the motor shaft is
disconnected from the load and will not cause mechanical rotation of the motor shaft.
1. Make sure that the mechanical installation is secure. All bolts and nuts are
tightened etc.
2. If motor has been in storage or idle for some time, check winding insulation
integrity with a Megger.
3. Inspect all electrical connections for proper termination, clearance, mechanical
strength and electrical continuity.
4. Be sure all shipping materials and braces (if used) are removed from motor
shaft.
5. Manually rotate the motor shaft to ensure that it rotates freely.
6. Replace all panels and covers that were removed during installation.
7. Momentarily apply power and check the direction of rotation of the motor shaft.
8. If motor rotation is wrong, be sure power is off and change the motor lead
connections. Verify rotation direction before you continue.
9. Start the motor and ensure operation is smooth without excessive vibration or
noise. If so, run the motor for 1 hour with no load connected.
10. After 1 hour of operation, disconnect power and connect the to load to the
motor shaft. Verify all coupling guards and protective devices are installed.
Ensure motor is properly ventilated.
Coupled Start Up This procedure assumes a coupled start up. Also, that the first time start up procedure
was successful.
1. Check the coupling and ensure that all guards and protective devices are
installed.
2. Check that the coupling is properly aligned and not binding.
3. The first coupled start up should be with no load. Apply power and verify that
the load is not transmitting excessive vibration back to the motor though the
coupling or the foundation. Vibration should be at an acceptable level.
4. Run for approximately 1 hour with the driven equipment in an unloaded
condition.
The equipment can now be loaded and operated within specified limits. Do not exceed
the name plate ratings for amperes for steady continuous loads.
Jogging and Repeated Starts Repeated starts and/or jogs of induction motors generally reduce the life of the motor
winding insulation. A much greater amount of heat is produced by each acceleration or
jog than than by the same motor under full load. If it is necessary to to repeatedly start or
jog the motor, it is advisable to check the application with your local Baldor distributor or
Baldor Service Center.
Heating - Duty rating and maximum ambient temperature are stated on the motor name
plate. Do not exceed these values. If there is any question regarding safe operation,
contact your local Baldor distributor or Baldor Service Center.
General Inspection Inspect the motor at regular intervals, approximately every 500 hours of operation or
every 3 months, whichever occurs first. Keep the motor clean and the ventilation
openings clear. The following steps should be performed at each inspection:
WARNING: Do not touch electrical connections before you first ensure that
power has been disconnected. Electrical shock can cause serious
or fatal injury. Only qualified personnel should attempt the
installation, operation and maintenance of this equipment.
1. Check that the motor is clean. Check that the interior and exterior of the motor
is free of dirt, oil, grease, water, etc. Oily vapor, paper pulp, textile lint, etc. can
accumulate and block motor ventilation. If the motor is not properly ventilated,
overheating can occur and cause early motor failure.
2. Use a “Megger” periodically to ensure that the integrity of the winding insulation
has been maintained. Record the Megger readings. Immediately investigate
any significant drop in insulation resistance.
3. Check all electrical connectors to be sure that they are tight.
Lubrication & Bearings Bearing grease will lose its lubricating ability over time, not suddenly. The lubricating
ability of a grease (over time) depends primarily on the type of grease, the size of the
bearing, the speed at which the bearing operates and the severity of the operating
conditions. Good results can be obtained if the following recommendations are used in
your maintenance program.
Type of Grease A high grade ball or roller bearing grease should be used. Recommended greases for
standard service conditions are:
Shell Dolium R (Factory Installed) or Chevron SRI.
Lubrication Intervals Recommended lubrication intervals are shown in Table 3-1. It is important to realize that
the recommended intervals of Table 3-1 are based on average use. Refer to additional
information contained in Tables 3-2 and 3-3.

Lubrication Procedure Be sure that the grease you are adding to the motor is compatible with the grease already
in the motor. Consult your Baldor distributor or an authorized service center if a grease
other than the recommended type is to be used.
Caution: To avoid damage to motor bearings, grease must be kept free of
dirt. For an extremely dirty environment, contact your Baldor
distributor or an authorized Baldor Service Center for additional
information.
1. Clean all grease fittings.
2. Remove grease outlet plug.
3. If motor is stopped, add the recommended amount of grease.
If motor is to be greased while running, a slightly greater quantity of grease will
have to be added. Add grease slowly until new grease appears at shaft hole in
the endplate or purge outlet plug.
4. Re-install grease outlet plug.
Sample Lubrication Determination
Assume - NEMA 286T (IEC 180), 1750 RPM motor driving an exhaust fan in an ambient
temperature of 43° C and the atmosphere is moderately corrosive.
1. Table 3-1 list 9500 hours for standard conditions.
2. Table 3-2 classifies severity of service as “Severe”.
3. Table 3-3 lists a multiplier value of 0.5 for Severe conditions.
4. Table 3-4 shows that 1.2 in3 or 3.9 teaspoon of grease is to be added.
Note: Smaller bearings in size category may require reduced amounts of grease.
Preparation
Clean all mating surfaces of the sprocket, bushing, and shaft. No lubrication should be used on any of these surfaces.
Make sure the shafts are true and parallel by accurately measuring the distance between the shafts at three points along
the shaft. The distance between the shafts should be the same at all three points. Also make sure the shafts are rigidly
mounted. Shafts should not deflect when the belt is tensioned.
b) If using other means to apply force to the belt then adjust the center
distance so that the belt is deflected 1/64” per inch of span length
when the proper deflection force is applied. C1Center Distance
6. After the belt is properly tensioned lock down the center distance adjust-ments
and recheck the sprocket alignment. Recheck the belt tension, alignment, and capscrew torque after 8 hours of
operation to ensure the drive has not shifted.

These compact, versatile unions can be used for Water, Intermittent Steam or Hot Oil.
Two precision ball bearings keep the seal faces in perfect alignment. Models 55 and 355
have stainless steel rotors. Models 555, and 655 have carbon steel rotors. All sizes are
available with 2 seal face combinations for both monoflow and duoflow service.
Falcon Concentrators Inc. provides these instructions as general guidelines. They do not
contain exhaustive information about the installation, use or maintenance of unions.
Purchasers and users of Deublin Unions should be certain that they have reviewed
Deublin’s catalog and have sufficient experience and training in the use of unions before
attempting installation or use of Deublin’s products.

This union combines economical initial cost with low maintenance and repair cost. You
can now upgrade to a longer wearing, mechanically sealed union that’s competitively
priced compared to commonly used pressure type joints. It features special wear-resistant
keyed seals (Tungsten Carbide to Carbon Graphite) that are capable of long service life
even under contaminated water conditions. And, when seals eventually do wear, both
seals are easily replaced on the machine, so downtime and cost are held to a minimum.
The 857 is a modern “full flow” design that utilizes a stacked wave spring to provide
uniform seal pressure without interfering with media flow. The rotor turns smoothly on
widely spaced twin precision ball bearings. The vented housing protects the bearings from
grease washout so they seldom need to be replaced.

Deublin Unions should never be used for applications other than specified in the
catalog. Deublin unions should not be used to seal hydrocarbons or other flammable
media as leakage may result in explosions or fires. The use of our product on exotic or
corrosive media is strictly forbidden. For applications other than stated in the catalog,
the Deublin Engineering Department should be contacted for recommendations.
These instructions are provided by Deublin as general guidelines. They do not contain
exhaustive information about the installation, use or maintenance of unions. Purchasers
and users of Deublin Unions should be certain that they have reviewed Deublin’s catalog
and have sufficient experience and training in the use of unions before attempting
installation or use of Deublin’s products. The principal responsibility for the safe and
effective use of Deublin Unions rests with the user and its employees. Deublin will provide,
upon request, whatever assistance it can to advise users about the use of its products and
about any difficulties or problems which are brought to its attention.
Factory Testing
All DEUBLIN Unions are factory tested under pressure before shipment. This thorough
check assures that each Deublin Union is completely leak proof when you receive it, and
can be installed with fullest confidence that it will operate to your complete satisfaction.
Installation
No exterior bracing should be used to prevent the housing of a ball bearing type union
from rotating. To compensate for any eccentricities occurring from installation, it is
imperative that a flexible connection be used. DO NOT PIPE SOLID. Use a 45-degree
elbow and pipe union on the riser, making certain there is a slight curve in the hose. Do
not install hose taut.
Lubrication
Lubrication of the ball bearings or seal faces is periodically required. The models that are
not equipped with a grease fitting or oil cup are lubricated for life and require no
maintenance other than periodic inspection to determine if normal wear has caused the
union to leak. The unions equipped with oil cups should be lubricated periodically with four
to five drops of high quality SAE #30 motor oil, approximately once a month or in extreme
severe conditions where high rpm is encountered once a week.
Rotating unions that are equipped with grease fittings should be lubricated with a good
quality ball bearing grease. We recommend Kluber Lubrications’s Petamo GHY 133N for
temperatures to 300°F (150°C). Only enough grease should be applied to the ball
bearings to replace that which has been dissipated. Over-greasing can be as damaging to
the union as under-greasing. Particularly in high rpm applications, grease should be used
sparingly. The chart below provides the approximate frequency of lubrication depending
on temperature or as experience dictates.
This warranty is void if the product is dismantled, modified, altered, or damaged from
improper maintenance, side-loading, excessive temperature, abrasive or chemical action,
or other abuse.
No representative, agent or employee of Deublin has any authority to modify the terms of
this warranty. Deublin will not be responsible for any consequential or resulting damage
which may be claimed to have occurred through the sale or use of such products or parts
thereof, which might be defective.
There are no warranties that extend beyond the description contained under this heading,
express or implied, including warranties of fitness for a particular purpose.

Description: Documentation for the commissioning and functional checks of a Falcon SBSE Concentrator.
This document defines a generalized checklist that can be applied during the field commissioning or servicing of a
Falcon SBSE gravity concentrator, including Falcon supplied automation and other supporting equipment. This
checklist does not include an assessment of the condition and functionality of site infrastructure – that includes
structures, circuits, instrumentation, communication, metallurgy, etc.
It is envisioned that the document will be applied following the initial field installation of a new (or in some cases
used) Falcon concentrator prior to acceptance by the buyer / renter. It is expected that the checklist will be employed
by engineers and/or field technicians, working on behalf of the seller, who seek to verify that the concentrator was
properly assembled and installed in the field and that all supplied systems and subsystems function as intended.
This document is primarily applicable to the Falcon SB “SE” models. However, the checklist is written in such a
manner that it permits evaluations and tests to be conducted on a wide variety of concentrator options
(instrumentation, motors, automation, etc.), therefore can be used for all Falcon SB models. The person that
executes the checklist must select those entries and factors that apply to the specific concentrator that is being
commissioned. The checklist includes several blank and/or additional spaces that allow the user to customize the
checklist in areas in which it is believed that a variety of different factors may be found by the user. In the case of
multiple units the applicable sections can be copied and filled in for each unit.
The person(s) executing the checklist should be qualified in testing this type of equipment (engineer, factory-certified
technician). This person(s) should enter appropriate parameters and values in the boxes in which the parameters
are sought. The user should also initial all lines in which the user has conducted a test, made an entry, or made a
determination about the effectiveness of the installation.
Following the acceptance of this checklist by the user, a Warranty Registration can be completed to ensure that the
parties involved are in full agreement regarding supply, operation, maintenance and spare parts liabilities.
