Installation

Mounting

These Eriez heavy duty Feeders may be mounted in
any of the following ways:

NOTE: Do not suspend from eyebolts threaded
horizontally into the tray or drive housing. Eyebolts
loaded at right angles to their shanks may fail
unexpectedly causing damage to equipment
or personal injury.

Suspension Mounting

Suspend front and rear of Feeder from cables
attached to the suspension bracket eyebolts. Refer to
Table 1 for suspension cable size. Cables should be
minimum 3/8" (10 mm) dia. standard. Safety cables
are also recommended for suspension mounted
feeders.

Refer to Eriez Vibratory Feeders Hopper Transition
and Installation Guide for additional information.

Floor Mounting

Mount front and rear of Feeder on the floor
mounting accessories provided as an alternate to
the suspension accessories. The mounting bases
(Part #27 or #28) should be bolted to the floor or other
mounting surface, and the unit, with the floor mounting
springs (Part #24, 25, or 26 on part list), simply placed
on the bases (no fastening necessary). (See Figure 1)

FIGURE 1

WARNING
Suspension mounting inherently involves
risk of property damage or personal injury to
equipment or personnel located under or near
the machine, should a mounting cable fail.
Suspension component specifications given
in this manual are suggestions only, and final

selection of suspension method is entirely
the responsibility of the user. Select and

use suspension cables with rated capacities
(including reduction factors for clamps, etc.)
that provide adequate safety factors when
the weight of the equipment and all possible
loading conditions and upsets are taken
into account. Consult Eriez at 814-835-6000
if additional Eriez equipment information is
needed to make this selection. As with all
suspended equipment, access to the area
under the machine should be restricted.

Combined Suspension and Floor Mounting

Any combination of suspension and floor mounting
means may be utilized. The details of any such
combination will, of course, be dictated by the
particular application. The instructions given above
should be followed.

IMPORTANT NOTE:
Special Trays and Attachments

Eriez engineering service should always be consulted
before undertaking the design or construction of
special trays. Neither standard nor special trays as
furnished by Eriez Magnetics should be modified or
attachments made without first consulting us. (See
Eriez Standard Tray Specifications.) Unauthorized

alterations void Eriez’ warranty.
