Care of Stainless SteelWaukesha Cherry-Burrell
Care of Stainless Steel
Stainless Steel Corrosion
Corrosion resistance is greatest when a layer of oxide film is
formed on the surface of stainless steel. If film is disturbed or
destroyed, stainless steel becomes much less resistant to
corrosion and may rust, pit or crack.
Corrosion pitting, rusting and stress cracks may occur due to
mical attack. Use only cleaning chemicals specified by a
che
reputable chemical manufacturer for use with 300 series stainless
steel. Do not use excessive concentrations, temperatures or
exposure times. Avoid contact with highly corrosive acids such as
hydrofluoric, hydrochloric or sulfuric. Also avoid prolonged
contact with chloride-containing chemicals, especially in
presence of acid. If chlorine-based sanitizers are used, such as
sodium hypochlorite (bleach), do not exceed concentrations of
150 ppm available chlorine, do not exceed contact time of 20
minutes, and do not exceed temperatures of 104°F (40°C).
Corrosion discoloration, deposits or pitting may occur under
oduct deposits or under gaskets. Keep surfaces clean,
pr
including those under gaskets or in grooves or tight corners.
Clean immediately after use. Do no t allow equipment to set idle,
exposed to air with accumulated foreign material on the surface.
Corrosion pitting may occur when stra
in contact with moist stainless steel. Ensure all electrical devices
connected to the equipment are correctly grounded.

Models and Specifications
Cylinder Assembly
The Votator II can be furnished for horizontal or vertical
installation, available in the following models:
rtical Votator II,
Concentric and Eccentric Designs, and the Extra Heavy Duty

The Votator II is furnished with either a single or double
mechanical seal on both ends of the mutator shaft. Units
furnished before 2005 were installed with either a single or
double mechanical seal configuration. See “2005 Mechanical
Seal Design” on page 11 for units furnished between 2005 and
2012. See “2012 Mechanical Seal Design” on page 11 for
standard units finished from 2012 to the present. Certain

2012 Mechanical Seal Design
Standard units furnished starting in 2012 have removable rotary
seal faces in solid carbon, silicon carbide, tungsten carbide, and
narrow-face tungsten carbide materials. The stationary seal faces
are made of solid ceramic or silicon carbide. Like the 2005
design, the 2012 single mechanical seal can be converted to a
double mechanical seal by adding secondary components to
contain a water or steam flush.

Flush Fluid Requirements
The double mechanical seal must be flushed, using the
threaded flush ports, anytime the mutator shaft is rotated. Failure
to do this will result in rapid seal failure due to excessive
contaminate and heat buildup.
The fluid flow should be in the range of 5 to 10 gallons per hour,
at a typ
composition and temperature should be selected to dissolve or
suspend any product leakage and cool the mechanical seal
faces, and should also be compatible with the sealing o-ring
material. Piping to seal cavities for horizontal units should be in

Liquid Feed Solenoid V alve
Liquid Feed Solenoid Valve is for on/off control of liquid
refrigerant flow. Valve is closed when de-energized.
Dual Pressure Regulating Valve
Dual Pressure Regulating Valve is shipped loose for installation
in vapor line on discharge side of refrigeration piping. Valve
regulates high-pressure for internal relief and low-pressure with
on/off solenoid valve for process control. It can be furnished for
manual regulating, pneumatic control with clean, dry, and oil free
air from 0-60 psig, or with a 115 volt motor mounted on the
regulating pilot that responds to a 4-20 milliamp electrical signal.
When using air, a decrease in pressure will lower the inlet
pressure producing a lower temperature.
Sporlan Level Master Control (LMC) or Level
Switch
Gravity Systems with Accumulator are furnished with a Sporlan
Level Master Control (LMC) or a Level Switch.
The LMC is a thermostatic expansion valve with a 15-watt heater
ele
ment. As the level in the accumulator drops, the electrically
added heat increases the pressure within the thermostatic
element and opens the valve. As the liquid level rises, the
electrical input is balanced by the heat transfer from the bulb to
the liquid refrigerant and modulates or shuts off the liquid flow.
Minor adjustments in the level response can be made by
adjusting the spring tension of the expansion valve seat.
If a refrigerant level float switch is p

accumulator level by opening or closing a solenoid operated
refrigeration valve. These systems contain that valve and an
expansion valve with a flow indicating scale.

Liquid Overfeed (LOF) or Pumped Refrigeration Systems have a

valve to prevent back flow of liquid during hot gas.
The indicator scale on the valve corresponds to the refrigeration

load is 10 tons and 200% (3:1) overfeed is desired, the valve
should be set at 30 on the scale reading.

Suggested Media Piping
for Liquid Over Feed
Refrigeration
This valve is located on the accumulator and should be
exhausted to outside the building. The valve is factory set to
relieve at the design pressure of the accumulator.
The liquid feed solenoid valve, when opened, allows liquid
refrigerant to flow into the jacket of the heat exchanger. The flow
is regulated by a manually set flow control valve. Cooling is
achieved when the pressure control valve is opened, causing the
pressure in the jacket to be reduced. This causes the liquid
refrigerant to change phase, absorbing heat from the heat
exchanger tube and product. The cooling rate is controlled by the
back pressure on the system and stops when the valve is closed.
Hot gas is used to push all of the remaining liquid from the
system into the ammonia low pressure receiver and quickly warm
the system. The low pressure receiver in the compressor room is
designed to separate the liquid from the vapor before recompressing.

for Gravity Refrigeration
Liquid refrigerant from the receiver is stored in a surge drum
located above the Votator II. The level in the surge drum is
automatically controlled by the level system provided with the
equipment. Gravity forces the refrigerant into the cooling jacket
where it comes into contact with the heat transfer tube. The warm
product causes a portion of the liquid refrigerant to change
phase, causing the heat transfer tube an d th e pr od uc t t o be
cooled. The cooling rate is controlled by the refrigerant back
pressure, and hot gas can be used to push the liquid refrigerant
from the Votator cylinder and rapidly warm the system.

6. Check again for leaks at front, back, and all piping
connections.
The customer is responsible for securing the top and bottom of
the pole and scrape assembly. See "Votator II Vertical Mounting
Suggestions" in Addendum Section.
The mounting pole with hydraulic components is assembled at
the factory to provide the proper height from the floor when
installed. Therefore, never trim the pole from the bottom.
Check to be sure the cylinders will be positioned with minimum
clearance to insure shaft can be removed correctly. See
“Clearances” on page 9.
Attach post mount to floor. (Stainless steel disk which serves as
base for pole.) There is a 13/16" diameter hole thro ugh the center
of the disk for mounting it to the floor. Make sure post mount is
level after installation.
Prepare site for attaching top of pole. Top of pole can be trimmed
if needed.

Check and Adjust Hydraulic Cylinder
After heat exchanger cylinders are mounted to the pole, check to
ensure the proper distance is maintained between the bottom of
the hydraulic cylinder and the floor. See "Vertical Mounting Pole/
Hydraulics" on page 32.
Fill Hydraulic Reservoir
The system is pre-piped, but requires approximately two (2)
gallons of Dexron II ATF (ISO VG 32/68) to be added before use.
Please consult the factory if it is necessary to substitute fluids.
CAUTION:
Mixing fluids will damage equipment.
Do not mix fluid types.

Blades
Mechanical Seals
Tubes
Blades that have developed a heel greater than WCB
specifications should be sharpened per instructions in this
manual. Blades worn beyond the minimum sharpening
dimensions should be replaced. Worn blades reduce heat
transfer, result in poor performance and may damage product
tubes. See “Scraper Blade Maintenance” on page 45.
Votator II heat exchangers are equipped with single or double
mechanical seals at each end of the mutator shaf t.
NOTE: Double mechanical seals MUST BE flushed to prevent
se
al faces from over heating.
Mechanical seal faces with nicks, bliste
abnormality on the seal face, must be replaced. Elastomers that
are brittle, deformed, cut, or have any abnormality must be
replaced. It is an excellent practice to replace all elastomers and
gaskets whenever maintenance is performed.
A frequent cause of tube wall damage is careless handling when
removing or installing the mutator shaft. The shaft trough skid
should always be used when removing or installing the mutator
shaft in the Horizontal Votator II (or the Vertical unit if in a
horizontal position) to prevent the blade mounting pins from

inspected for flaking of the chrome. Normally, tubes will develop
phonographic patterns from blade contact and rotation; this
phonographic pattern is generally visible to the eye but is not
significant unless detectable by touch. Scoring is significant when
the base metal has been damaged; roughness of the tube wall is

NOTE: Rep
by a shop with ASME certified welders.

by an ASME coded machine shop with
certified welders will void the warranty
and possibly void insurance. SPX has all
required certifications necessary for

air work must be performed
You probably recognize that your Votator® and Thermutator®
Heat Exchangers are valuable elements of your production
facility. Day in and day out, they continuously and efficiently heat
and cool products that often cannot be handled in any other
equipment. You may not be aware that these units are
considered pressure vessels under the ASME Code, and that
SPX is the only facility authorized to make OEM repairs to the
removable tubes that maintain their ASME Code certification.
This certification is your assurance that the equipment meets its
original design pressure rating.
The removable tubes are wear parts, and must be r eplaced when
they lose too much metal. Their inner surface is scraped by
rotating blades and is potentially exposed to corrosive or abrasive
products or cleaners. In some cases chrome plating is applied to
resist mechanical wear, but it eventually wears away or the tubes
become damaged or scored and lose performance. SPX can
inspect the tubes against the original drawings and determine
whether they can be honed to restore a smooth inne r su rfa ce ,
while keeping enough tube wall thickness to satisfy the ASME
Code design calculations. Removable tubes that are worn
beyond repair are condemned by our facility for your protection.
A breach in the removable tube that occurs during operation
ld be an extremely costly and hazardous event. In a recent
cou
incident, a removable tube was honed by an unauthorized
machine shop that removed too much metal. The extremely thin
tube wall flexed under the pressure of the product and the
scraping blade edge, until one blade penetrated and tore a hole
in the tube. Consequences of this kind of failure can include:

Jacket Side
Cleaning the Flanges
For Units Using Steam, Water, Or Liquid
The jacket side of the heat transfer tube has a sealed cover that
allows the media flow to circulate around the tube. If it becomes
coated with foreign matter and heat transfer is reduced, it can be
cleaned by pumping a detergent solution compatible with the
carbon steel jacket at a rate of about 100 gpm. The frequency of
this cleaning process will vary greatly from one installation to
another.
For Units Using Refrigerant
The jacket side of the heat transfer tube will become fouled with
oil and sludge over time and prevent efficient heat transfer. This
tube does not have a sealed flow spiral and can be cleaned by
removing it from the jacket. It should be removed for cleaning
every 12 to 18 months.

Scraper Blade Wear
Worn blades reduce heat transfer efficiency and can cause
excessive wear on the product tube wall.
As the scraper blades scrape across the interior of the heat
exchanger tube, they wear into the contour of the tube. A flat
surface called the heel and a burr or feathered edge develops at
the contact area on the side of the blade that is against the tube
wall. See Figure 25.
The blades must be maintained to achieve maximum
rformance. When the heel of the blade reaches a maximum of
pe
1/16" (1.6 mm) on metal blades or 1/8" (3.2 mm) on plastic
blades, they must be replaced or re-sharpened.
Blade Sharpening
Scraper blades can be sharpened by several methods,
depending on the blade material.
The best method utilizes a high speed
keeps the backside of the blade perpendicular to the cutting
edge. The cutting edge of the blade should be parallel to th e back
surface of the blade within 1/64".
A new universal blade is 2 inches wide by 6 inches long.
For mutator shafts that are 4-1/2 inche
blade should not be sharpened to a blade width of less than 1-3/8
inches.
For mutator shafts that are 4 inches in diameter, the blade should
not be sharpened to a blade width of less than 1-1/2 inches.

Seal Assembly Installation on Shaft
After the head insert and the body insert are installed, the
remaining components are installed as follows:
1. The primary seal body is held in place on the mutator shaft by
tw
o seal drive pins. Each one should be 5/32 inches (+/-
0.015") above the stub shaft surface. The secondary seal
body is held in place by one seal drive pin. It should be 3/32
inch (+/-0.015") above the stub shaft surface. It is extremely
important that these dimensions be maintained. If the pins
are too high, the seal will jam; if they are too low, the body will
rotate. See Figure 67 and Figure 70.
2. Place wavy washer spring (See Figure 67, Item A) on shaft.
3. Place seal body (Figure 68) or one piece seal on shaft,
aligning slots with seal drive pins.
Figure 68 - Install Seal Body
4. Install "keeper" O-ring (See Figure 69, Item E) on shaft to
keep rotating parts assembled.
5. Inspect seal to insure that it moves fre
drive pins keep it stationary with respect to the mutator shaft.
6. Assemble Secondary Seal Wavy Washer on shaft, if require d

Servicing Mechanical Seals - Vertical Votator II
The top mechanical seal can be serviced by lowering the shaft to
the floor and removing the seals from the shaft while the spline
end is in the heat transfer tube. See Figure 71. See “Mechanical
Seal Maintenance” on page 56 for information regarding
servicing the seal.
The bottom mechanical seal can be serviced with the mutator
ft in the unit by using the shaft clamp. See Figure 72.
