3. Introduction

Applications
In poultry application, Flex-Flo Fill System conveys feed from bulk feed tank to hoppers inside the po ultry building as shown in Figure 3A. Other feed systems (i.e. cycle plus, chain feeder etc.) take the feed from the hopper to the desired locations in the building. On this layout, hopper level switches may be placed in more than one hopper to assure that no hopper empties before the control unit hopper requires feed. (All switches must be wired in parallel so that any one switch can start the system.)
Figure 3A Poultry Application Layout
In swine applications, Flex-Flo Fill System conveys feed from bulk feed tanks to each individual fe ede r (i.e. S.S. hog feeder, drop feeder etc.) directly as shown in consumed. A feed level control is installed at the end to shut off the system after all feeders are filled.
Figure 3B
. It is at this location that feed is being
Figure 3B Swine Application Layout
Background
The Flex-Flo Fill System consists of a combination of PVC tubes and preformed PVC elbows. A special PVC cement is used to connect the tubes and elbows. The PVC tubes are available in four (4) different sizes. The PVC tube contains a rotating auger which conveys the feed to the different outlet holes. The auger is driven by a direct drive power unit or a belt drive power unit.
Building Safety
If you are intending to install the Flex-Flo System at high levels and/or suspended from a building structure, it is important that you check the structural integrity of the building to carry the additional load. For information on the imposed loads on the building by the Flex-Flo System, please contact the dealer or the GSI group.
Installation Sequence
This manual outlines the recommended order for the installation of the Flex-Flo System. Following this guideline will provide the safest and easiest method of installation. Above all, connection of the system to the electrical mains should be the final stage of installation. Failure to observe this could lead to a fatal accident.

The Feed Tank Connections
Feed Tank Orientation
Positioning the feed tank in line with the Flex-Flo System will provide the most trouble-free operation possible. Avoid unnecessary elbows and curves to ease system installation. A feed tank with a 30° unloader is generally required to be at least 10-1/2' (3.2 m) away from the building. With a straight un loa der, the tank will be approximately 4' (1.22 m) farther away from the building in order to make auger tube connections. The reference points are based upon the height where the system enters the building. Different unloaders with various elbows and curves used provide different entrance opportunitie s. The distanc es are ach ie ved by modifying and adjusting the elbows and tubing as needed. See tables
on Page 13
(Metric) for tank placement recommendations.

Auger Tubing
Auger Tubing Installation
The auger tubing is one of the most important parts of the Flex-Flo Fill System. Proper installation is very important. Dry fit ALL parts before cementing or clamping. Once the complete system is fitting properly, cement or clamp the entire system.
The following steps are to be performed in the exact order shown:
1. Establish the entry point where the auger tube will enter the building. Once the entry point is determined, cut a hole large enough to accommodate the tubing. A seal ring and a neoprene seal are provided to seal the excess area between the tube and the hole in the building. The seal ring and the neoprene seal shall be installed as shown in Figure 5J.
Figure 5J Seal Ring and Neoprene Seal Installation
2. Slide the elbow tubing through the hole in the building. Establish and cut (if necessary) the elbow at the desire length to ensure that the auger tubing will be horizontal. See Figure 5K on Page 21 for proper cutting dimensions of the elbows at specific degree angles.
3. Fit and clamp a second elbow around the unloader outlet.
4. Slide the non-belled end of the straight tubing into the belled end of the “building” elbow. Hold the straight tubing in the desired mounting position. Mark and cut the “unloader” elbow at th e point where it and the straight tubing intersect.

Auger Tubing Installation (Continued)
5. Remove the non-belled end of the straight tubing from the “building” elbow. Slide the belled end of the straight tubing over the freshly cut end of the “unloader” elbow. Mark and cut the straight tubing (as needed) so that it will fit inside the belled end of the “building” elbow.
6. Dry fit all of the outside tubing to ensure correct installation. Once satisfied, glue or clamp the tubing together as per the instructions in the section titled cementing procedure on Page 22.
7. When the auger tubing between the unloader and the building is 15' (4.57 m) or longer, the tubes should be supported.
8. Locate and cut the outlet holes needed in the remaining straight tubes. For the exact size of outlet holes, see section titled outlet holes on Page 22. Once ALL of the outlet holes are made and the tubing is dry fitted, glue or clamp the tubes together per the instructions in the section entitled cementing procedure on Page 22.
9. Suspend the auger tubes and elbows from the ceiling at least once every four feet (4'). If horizontal elbows are used, support them in at least two (2) places. Chain and lag screws are provided in each suspension kit. The tubes should be kept as straight and level as possible.
NOTE: Align all outlet holes in proper functional positions prior to gluing the tube joints together.

5. Installation
Cementing Procedure
Flex-Flo Systems have specially formulated PVC tubing. For strong tube connections, apply the PVC solvent cement per the instructions as follows:
1. Square tube ends and remove all burrs and dirt.
2. Check dry fit of tubes. The smaller end of the first tube should easily slide one-third of the way into the belled end of the second tube. The first tube end should be snug in the second tube o nce it is all the way in.
3. When the temperature is below 40°F (4°C) or above 85°F (29°C), consult PVC solvent cement container.
4. Apply a liberal coat of cement in the belled end. Avoid puddling inside.
5. Apply a liberal coat of cement on the smaller end, leaving no voids.
6. Assemble parts quickly. CEMENT MUST BE FLUID. If not fluid, re-coat both parts.
7. Push the smaller end into the belled end using a quarter turning motion until the small end bottoms.
8. Hold tubes together for 30 seconds, wipe off excess cement with cloth. Completed joints should not be disturbed until they have cured enough to withstand handling.
Keep container closed when not in use.
Outlet Holes
Establish where the outlet drops are to be. Once this is done, cut holes for the outlet drops. for hole size recommendations. If total drop-out is necessa ry, it is recommended that th e holes are cut using a saber saw or hacksaw. When carry-over is desired, it is recommended that the outlet holes are cut with a holesaw.

Auger
The auger should be handled with great care. Do not install the auger until the kinks have been removed. The kink may be removed by straightening the auger. A kink may cause extensive wear on the system and premature part replacement. In the event that the kink cannot be removed by straightening, the kink must be cut-out and the auger welded. (See brazing recommendations in Figure 5X on Page 29.)
Figure 5U
Auger Installation
Two (2) persons are required to install the auger. One person fee ds the auger into the tubing while the other makes sure the auger is not damaged. Make sure n o metal wires or loose ends enter the system.
1. The auger must be fed into the Flex-Flo System through the unloader. Remove the anchor from the unloader. Remove the control unit cover plate as well.
2. Feed the auger carefully into the Flex-Flo System through the unloader. Remove the anchor from the unloader and remove the control unit cover plate.
3. Push the auger in until it reaches the control unit at the other end. Fasten the end of the auger to the clamp pin in the control unit driver assembly. Tighten the 5/16" hex head cap screw holding the auger lock clamp pin to 23 ft-lbs. If the auger end is not in the appropriate orientation for connection, the driver assembly may be rotated by turning the motor drive shaft.
4. Pull and release the free end of the auger gently a few times. This action should relax the auger into its natural position.
5. A certain mechanical stress must be applied when installing the auger; therefore stretching the auger is very important. This is performed by drawing the auger out of the tubing. An important factor is the total system length. The auger should be drawn out of the tubing 2'' (5 cm) for every 50' (15 m) of length for single feed tanks. For tandem systems, stretch the auger 4" (10 cm) for every 50' (15 m) of length.
6. While the auger is in the relaxed state, mark the auger at the unloader inlet.
Figure 5V Stretching the Auger
5. Installation
Auger Installation (Continued)
7. Draw the auger out of the tubing as far as required. Measure the length between the mark and the unloader inlet. Mark the auger again at the unloader inlet when properly stretched. (See Figure 5V
on Page 28.) Stretching the auger too far will cause premature wear at the inside bends of the
PVC tubing. Stretching the auger not far enough will cause premature wear at th e ou tsid e be nds of the PVC tubing.
8. For ease of trimming the auger, pull the auger out an additional 8'' (20 cm) past the mark and clamp it at the unloader. This clamping releases tension at the mark and thus eases cutting.
(See Figure 5W.)
9. Twist the unloader anchor into the auger and clasp the auger end in the clamp pin.
10. Mount the anchor in the unloader.
11. Place the cannonball inside the unloader.
12. Mount the cover on the control unit.
13. Place the inspection/clean-out plate in the unloader.
Figure 5W Cutting the Auger
Brazing the Auger
1. Make sure both ends are cleaned.
2. Position the auger in an angle iron and clasp it securely to align it for brazing. (See Figure 5X.)
3. Braze both ends together. Use a bronze flux-coated rod. Make sure the auger does not get too hot which might cause the auger to warp.
4. After the brazing is performed, the joint should be allowed to air cool.
5. Once the auger has cooled, install the auger with the brazed joint closer to the power unit.

Extension Hopper Installation
1. To ease the installation, mount the extension hopper top section to the Flex-Flo tubing.
NOTE: A. Slide the tube clamp on the hopper tube anchor prior to attaching it to the tubing.
B. Make certain when mounting the power unit and the tubing that they are attached to the
access slide side. When mounted in this orientation, the incoming auger is positioned as far away as possible to allow the upper control switch to operate properly.
2. Suspend the top section from the ceiling as shown in Figure 5Y. Support holes are provided on the top section for mounting. When mounting, make allowance for f uture adjustments of the top section after the bottom section has been connected.
NOTE: Any additional support given to the extension hopper makes for a more solid system and is
desirable. Take special care if or when the support is modified that the operation of the system and the ability to do a general maintenance are not hindered.
3. Mount the unloader under the control unit. The control unit should be assembled together prior to mounting. This assembly includes the driver assembly. Suspend the control unit firmly from the ceiling. Support holes are provided on the tube anchor.
Figure 5Y Extension Hopper
4. Fasten the end of the auger to the anchor in the control unit driver assembly. Tighten the 5/16" hex head cap screw holding the auger lock clamp pin to 23 ft-lbs. If the auger end is not in the appropriate orientation for connection, the driver assembly may be rotated by either turning the motor shaft with a wrench or by turning the large pulley to rotate the driver assembly.
5. Remove the anchor assembly and the rear access panel from the bottom section of the extension hopper. Mount the bottom section to the top section with 1/4"-20 machine screws provided with the hopper. The bottom section may be mounted in three (3) various directions. (See Figure 5Z
on Page 31.)

8. The extension unit switch should actuate prior to “bottoming out” when pressed in and return back to its original position after it is released.
Figure 5AB
Operation Guidelines
1. Open the unloader slide completely for the delivery system operation except on tandem system.
2. Do not operate the Flex-Flo System empty. Utilize a time clock with the system whenever possible because:
A. It lessens short cycling by operating on a set schedule versus on demand. B. It prohibits the system from running excessively when empty if the tank should go dry. When the
optional unloader switch is used, it should be wired so that if the feed tank goes empty the power unit will stop.
3. The time clock should be programmed to start the Flex-Flo System often. By running the system often, long running periods are eliminated and the feeders are kept full. When the Flex-Flo System is used for filling poultry feeders, a time clock should be utilized to ensure that all feeders are filled at the same time. The Flex-Flo System will have a better opportunity to keep up. Position the hopper level control low in the last hopper.
4. A safety switch is provided on the control unit to trip out the motor in the event that feed is packed inside. If feed does get packed, dislodge the feed from the drop tube and clean-out the inside of the control unit which will allow the switch to close. The hopper level control needs to maintain vertical positioning to keep the paddle swinging freely. Check the adjustment regularly. The control unit safety switch does not replace the hopper level control.
5. When the Flex-Flo System is used to convey high-moisture feed, the auger line should be completely emptied after each running to prevent feed from jamming in the tubes.
6. Operate the manual outlets several times each week to free them of feed debris.
7. The restrictor on the unloader anchor controls the feed that is flowing into the auger. When starting a new system, the restrictor should be installed at full length and flush with the front of the unloader. Permit the system to polish out the inside of the tubing before modifying the feed flow. When the restrictor tube is in the unloader, maximum restriction is reached. When increased feed flow is desired, the length of the restrictor tube should be decreased.
5. Installation
8. When a multi-story building is supplied by one auger solely, obtain total drop-out at each outlet. A time clock MUST be utilized to ensure that all of the feeders are filled at the same time. In the last hopper on every level, install a hopper level control.
9. With the straight-through tandem system, open only one tank slide at a time when feeding. Operating the system with both unloader slides open is not recommended since horsepower consumption increases considerably.
