Receiving and Handling
PennBarry fans are carefully inspected
before leaving the factory. When the unit
is received, inspect the carton for any
signs of tampering. Inspect the unit for
any damage that may have occurred during transit and check for loose, missing or
damaged parts. Mishandled units can
void the warranty provisions. PennBarry
is not responsible for damages incurred
during shipment.
Avoid severe jarring and/or dropping.
Handle units with care to prevent damage
to components or special finishes.
Storage
Long-term storage requires special attention. Units should be stored on a level,
solid surface, preferably indoors. If outside storage is necessary, protect the
units against moisture and dirt by encasing the cartons in plastic or some similar
weatherproof material. Periodically inspect units and rotate wheels to spread
bearing lubricant. Failure to rotate wheels
can result in reduced bearing life and may
void the manufacturer’s warranty. If the
unit will be stored for extended time,
remove all belts.
Unpacking
Place carton in an upright position and
remove staples or use a sharp (knife
edge) tool to CAREFULLY cut or scribe
the sealing tape on both sides at the top
of the carton. Open carton flaps. Remove
any cardboard and wooden filler pieces,
as well as loose components or accessories shipped with the unit.
Carefully remove the unit from the carton.
Inspect the unit for any damage that may
have occurred during transit and check
for loose, missing or damaged parts.
Installation
Position unit to allow a minimum of 30"
clearance for the side access panels on
the unit. PennBarry ZC fans are supplied
with four (4) pre-punched mounting holes
which should be utilized as the point of
attachment. For installation purposes, use
four (4), 3/8" diameter threaded steel
rods, supplied by others (see Figure 1).
Attach the rods securely into the ceiling
panel or joist system and cut to length
so the fan will hang in a level plane.
To mount the unit, first put a nut and
washer on each rod. Position the fan to
hang level, with the rods extending
through the mounting rail holes. Place
another washer and nut onto the rods
from inside the housing. Tighten nuts
to lock the unit in place (see Figure 2).
If vibration isolators are required, they
should be attached to the hanger rods
before the unit is installed.
On dual unit Zephyr cabinet fans (Model
ZCC), support channels provide the point
of attachment instead of mounting holes
(see Figure 3). Model ZCC units are preassembled with a joiner angle and two (2)
support channels connecting the two
units. Use four (4) 3/8" diameter threaded
steel rods (supplied by others) for installation purposes. Attach the rods securely to
the ceiling panel or joist system and cut to
length so the fan will hang in a level
plane. Mount the unit in place using the
holes provided in the support channels
and use nuts and washers, as described
above, to lock the unit in place.

For floor installation, lag through bottom
of cabinet into floor. If rubber vibration
isolators (supplied by others) are used
they should be located so the cabinet
rests on them. Lag isolators to floor
and bolt the fan to them using hardware
adequate for attachment.
NOTE: Some local codes prohibit the connection
of in-line, aluminum fans in kitchen hood exhaust
systems. According to present NFPA 96
interpretation, ANY fan used in such duct work must
be made of steel, with liquid-tight welds at all seams
and connections. If local codes are in accordance
with NFPA 96 do not use ANY FAN that is not
completely welded closed for such duty. Refer
to Penn Fumex Bulletin FMX99 for roof and wall
mounted exhausters approved for use on kitchen
hood exhaust.
Do not install in the
kitchen area.
Wiring
Before wiring fan, LOCK OUT ALL
POWER SOURCES. Normally power
lines are brought up to the fan through
proper conduit lines.
When performing any electrical wiring,
follow all local and national electrical
and safety codes, as well as the
most recent National Electrical Code
(NEC) and the Occupational Safety
and Health Act (OSHA).
All wiring should be performed by a
qualified electrician.
When power lines are brought to the
unit, a generous amount of slack should
be provided to allow for motor deflections
and to permit movement of motor for
belt tension adjustments. Motor must
be securely and adequately grounded.
Protect power lines from sharp objects.
Do not kink power line of permit it to
contact hot surfaces, chemical, grease
or oil. Use only UL recognized electrical
parts - rated for proper voltage, load
and environment.
Make sure that the
proper line voltage is
supplied to the fan.
Start Up and Operation
Careful inspection should be made before
start-up. All fasteners should be securely
tightened. Impeller should be rotated by
hand to insure free movement. (NOTE:
Before placing hand on impeller or belts,
lock out primary and secondary power
source.) Check all set-screws and keys.
Tighten when necessary using proper
tools to recommended torque.
The condition of belts and the amount of
belt tension should be checked prior to
start-up. When it becomes necessary to
adjust belt tension, do not overtighten as
bearing damage will occur. Recommended belt tension should permit 1/64" per
inch of span deflection of the belt on each
side of the belt measured half-way
between the pulley centerline (See Figure
6). Extreme care must be exercised when
adjusting belt as not to misalign the pulleys. Any misalignment will cause a sharp
reduction in belt life and will also produce
squeaky, annoying noises. On units
equipped with two-groove pulleys, use
matching belts and adjust so there is
equal tension on both belts.

BELT AND PULLEY ALIGNMENT
Whenever belts are
removed or installed,
never force belts over pulleys without
loosening motor first to relieve belt tension. The fan has been checked at the factory prior to shipment for mechanical noises. If mechanical noise should develop, the
following suggestions are offered here as
a guide toward remedying the cause.
1. Check rotating members
for adequate clearance.
2. Check proper belt tension
and pulley alignment.
3. Check installation and anchoring.
4. Check fan bearings.
The inlets and approaches to the
exhauster should be free from obstructions. To assure maximum air movement,
adequate supply air must be available.
Before putting fan into operation, complete the following check list:
a. Turn off and LOCK OUT
power source.
b. Make sure installation
is in accordance with
manufacturer’s instructions.
c. Check and tighten all fasteners.
d. Spin wheel
to see if rotation is free.
e. Check all set-screws and keys:
tighten if necessary.
f. Torqued set screws have a colored
Torque Seal mark indicating the correct torque has been applied.
g. Check belt or direct drive coupling
for alignment (use recommended
belt tension gauges).
h. Check belt for proper
sheave selection.
i. Make sure there is no foreign or
loose material in ductwork leading to
and from fan or in the fan itself.
j. Properly secure all safety guards.
k. Secure all access doors to fan
and ductwork.
l. Check line voltage with
motor nameplate.
m. Check wiring.
NOTE: On single phase motors, the terminal block
must be arranged in accordance with the nameplate
instructions and/or wiring diagram. The arrangement
must match the line voltage. If the motor is multispeed or multi-voltage, the winding leads must be
grouped and connected as shown on the wiring
diagram. The line voltage must correspond with
proper grouping of motor leads. The wiring diagram
must be followed explicitly or serious motor or starter
damage will occur.)
Switch on electrical supply and allow fan
to reach full speed. Check carefully for:
1. Correct rotation of the wheel. NOTE:
incorrect rotation results in severely
diminished air flow. Check rotation
label on unit.
To change rotation of 3 phase units,
interchange any 2 of the 3 line
leads. On single phase units,
change the terminal block connections following the wiring diagram
on the motor.
2. Check motor and bearing temperatures so that they are not excessively hot. NOTE: Use care when touching the exterior of an operating
motor. Modern motors normally
run hot. They are designed to operate at higher temperatures. This is
a normal condition, but they may
be hot enough to be painful or
injurious to the touch.
If any problem is indicated, TURN OFF
POWER TO UNIT IMMEDIATELY. Lock
out the electrical supply, check carefully
for the cause of the trouble and correct as
needed. Even if the fan appears to be
operating satisfactorily, shut down after a
brief period and check all fasteners, setscrews and keys for tightness.
The fan may now be put into operation but
during the first eight (8) hours of running it
should be periodically observed and
checked for excessive vibration or noise.
At this time, checks should also be made
on motor input current and motor bearing
temperatures to insure they do not
exceed manufacturer’s recommendations. After eight hours of satisfactory
operation the fan should be shut down
and the electrical power locked out to
check the following items and adjust if
necessary:
a. All set-screws, keys and fasteners.
b. Drive coupling alignment.
c. Belt drive alignment.
d. Belt tension.
Maintenance
Do not attempt maintenance on a fan until
the electrical supply has been completely
disconnected. Lubrication is a primary
maintenance responsibility. Check all
bearings periodically. Inspect belts for
tightness. If the fan is installed in a corrosive or dirty atmosphere, periodically
clean the centrifugal wheel, inlet, motor
housing and other moving parts.
FAN SHAFT LUBRICATION
Fan shaft bearing pillow blocks are furnished in either the pre-lubricated sealedfor-life type or the greasable type depending on what was ordered. The pre-lubricated type requires no servicing for 7 to
10 years of normal use and the greasable
type are factory greased eliminating the
need for greasing initially. Follow the lubricating schedule recommended by the factory. This practice should not supersede
any safety considerations.
Use low pressure
grease guns only. High
pressure guns tend to blow out or unseat
bearing seals, leaving the bearing open to
collect grime, dust and foreign particles.
LUBRICATION SCHEDULE
Always follow the bearing manufacturer’s
recommended lubrication schedule. If
none is available us the following
general schedule.
a. Under average conditions where
ambient temperatures do not exceed
120°F., lubrication is required 1 to 2
times a year.
b. Under dirt laden atmosphere where
there is a temperature range of
120°F to 150°F, lubrication is
required from 3 to 6 times a year.
c. Under extreme temperature condi-
tions and extremely dirty atmospheres, lubrication should be scheduled at least once or twice a month.
d. Belt driven units maximum tempera-
ture should not exceed 160°F. Direct
driven models have temperature
range stamped on motor.

Table 1: Recommended Lubricants
MOTOR LUBRICATION
In general, standard motors are furnished
with prelubricated, sealed-for-life ball
bearings which require no lubrication for 7
to 10 years of normal service. Where
motors have been ordered with greasable
bearings, these bearings are factory lubricated and require no attention for one
year under normal conditions. If grease
relief fittings are provided, remove them
when performing maintenance to allow
grease to flow out. Whenever possible,
apply grease while the motor is running.
This practice should not supersede any
safety considerations. DO NOT OVER
GREASE, as most lubricants deteriorate
motor windings, thereby reducing motor
life and presenting a fire hazard.
Hidden Danger
In addition to the normal dangers of rotating machinery, fans present an additional
hazard in their ability to suck in not only
air, but loose material as well. Solid
objects can pass through the fan and be
discharged by the impeller as potentially
dangerous projectiles. Therefore, screen
intake to ductwork, whenever possible, to
prevent the accidental entrance of solid
objects. Never open access doors to a
duct system with the fan running.
When starting the fan for the first time,
completely inspect the ductwork and interior of the fan (with the power locked off),
to make certain there is no foreign material which can be sucked into or blown
through the ductwork.
Where the fan is accessible to untrained
personnel or the general public, use maximum safety guards, even at the cost of
some performance loss.
Unprotected fans
located less than
7' above the floor also require guarding
as specified in the Occupational
Safety and Health Act (OSHA).
Fans may be connected directly to ductwork which will prevent contact with the
internal moving parts, but when the inlet
or outlet is exposed, install a suitable
guard. PennBarry recommends the use of
guards on all exposed non-ducted fans,
ceiling and wall mounted.
To reduce the risk
of injury, install fan
at least 7 feet above the floor if no
guard is supplied.
Special Purpose Systems
Explosive, corrosive, high temperature,
etc. may require special construction,
inspection and maintenance. It is necessary to observe the fan manufacturer’s
recommendations and limitations concerning the type of material to be
handled by the fan and its application
to special conditions.
