General Installation
CAUTION: Sheet metal parts, screws, clips and similar items inherently have sharp edges, and it is necessary that the installer and service personnel exercise cau­tion.
The installation of this equipment shall be in accordance with the regulations of authorities having jurisdiction and all applicable codes.
This equipment is to be installed by an experienced installation company and fully trained personnel. The mechanical installation of the exhaust ventilator consists of making final connections between the unit and build­ing services.
CAUTION: Disconnect power and lock out power source before installing or servicing. Failure to disconnect power can result in electric shock, fire or serious injury.
1. Do not operate the fan beyond the maximum cata­loged RPM. The current should be verified any time the RPM is adjusted to ensure it is below the nameplate amperage value.
2. Verify the equipment is compatible with the power source.
3. Allow motor to cool down before servicing to avoid injury.
Receiving
Short Term Storage
If fan installation is to be delayed, store the unit in a protected area, preferably indoors. Protect fan bearings and motor from moisture and vibration.
Long Term Storage
Prior to storage, grease fan bearings and motor bearings per manufacturer's specifications. Note, motors which contain ball bearings are permanently lubricated as built. No additional lubrication is required. On belt drive units, belts should be removed or at least the belt tension reduced to prevent a sag/set from forming in the fan shaft and belts. Rotate wheel and shaft monthly and leave in a different position. When unit is to be removed from storage and activated, check for corrosion and damage. All bearing grease should be purged and replaced with fresh grease.
Unpacking
Sometimes it is not possible for all items to ship togeth­er due to availability of carriers and truck space. Verification of shipments must be limited to only items on the bill of lading.

Electrical Connection
Standard Fan
1. Connect supply wiring to the disconnect switch (non­fused standard).
2. The motor is factory set at the voltage marked on the fan nameplate. Check the line voltage with the name­plate voltage.
3. The main power wiring should be sized for the ampac­ity shown on the dataplate. Size wires in accordance with the ampacity tables in Article 310 of the National Electrical Code. If long wires are required, it may be necessary to increase wire size to prevent excessive voltage drop. Wires should be sized for a maximum of 3% voltage drop.
CAUTION: Use copper conductors only.
any two of the three line leads. If the unit is checked with temporary wiring, it should be rechecked when perma­nently installed. Motor burn out or tripped overload protec­tion devices are usually the result of wrong rotation.
6. Electrical Input Check: Perform check of fan ampere draw and verify that motor nameplate amps are not exceeded. Take into account the service factor of the motor if it is above 1.0 S.F.
7. Fan RPM should be checked and verified with a tachometer.
CAUTION: Protect wiring from sharp edges. Leave some slack in the line to prevent damage.
4. Disconnect switches are not fused. The power leads must be protected at the point of distribution in accor­dance with the fan dataplate.
5. All units must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the latest edition of the National Electrical Code (ANSI/NFPA 70). A ground lug is provided as standard in the unit terminal box. Size grounding conductor in accordance with Table 250-95 of the National Electrical Code. DO NOT use the ground lug for connecting a neutral conductor.
6. Supply voltage to the power ventilator should not vary by more than 10% of the value indicated on the unit dataplate. Phase unbalance must not exceed 2%.
Check, Test & Start Procedures
Warning: Electric shock hazard. Could cause severe injury or death. Failure to bond the frame of this equip­ment to the building electrical ground by use of the grounding terminal provided or other acceptable means may result in electrical shock. Disconnect electric power before servicing equipment. Service to be performed only by qualified personnel.
Before Start-up: Disconnect power before servicing unit

1. Check all fasteners and setscrews for tightness.
Note: The wheel position is set at the factory and the fan was balanced and vibration tested prior to shipment. Movement may have occurred during transport and realign­ment may be necessary.
2. Check that the wheel is centered and free to rotate. Centering can be changed by loosening isolator mounts and repositioning the drive frame.
3. For optimum fan performance make sure that the wheel to inlet venturi gap or overlap is maintained per Figure 7. Height can be adjusted by loosening set screws on the wheel and reposition on the fan shaft, per the table.
4. Verify that the power supply matches the voltage on the fan data plate and is within the 10% utilization rate.
5. Apply power to unit and check rotation of wheel with the directional arrow on the unit. All fans are clock­wise, as viewed from drive side, per Figure 8.
Warning: Rotation is critical. If allowed to operate in the wrong direction, the motor will overload and burn out. For three-phase units, rotation can be changed by switching

Inspection
Inspection of the fan should be completed at the first 30 minutes, 8 hour and 24 hour intervals of satisfac­tory operation.
30 Minute Interval
Inspect tightness of all hardware, setscrews and motor mounting bolts. Adjust and tighten as necessary.
8 Hour Interval
Inspect belt alignment and tension. See Belt Adjustment and tension as necessary
24 Hour Interval
Inspect belt tension, adjust as necessary.
Maintenance
A maintenance program should be established to main­tain the reliability and performance of the fan. The frequency of inspection depends on the location and operating conditions of the fan.
Maintenance is to be performed only by qualified per­sonnel who are familiar with local codes and regula­tions and experienced with this type of equipment. Routine maintenance should cover the following:
a. Tighten all setscrews and hardware. b. Check belt tension and sheaves for wear. c. Lubricate fan bearings (see Table 4 for recom-
mended interval and Table 5 for grease types.
d. Cleaning of unit, wheel and grease box.
1. Before performing any maintenance on the fan, be
sure power is turned off and locked in the off position at the service entrance.
2. Ventilators should be carefully checked at least
once a year. For critical or rugged applications, a routine check every two or three months is sug­gested.
3. Always follow the bearing manufacturer's recom-
mended lubrication schedule. If not available, below is a general guideline:
Table 4.
Bearing Greasing Intervals
Fan RPM Interval (months)
Up to 500 6
500 - 1,000 6
1,000 - 1,500 5
1,500 - 2,000 3
2,000 - 2,500 3
2,500 - 3,000 2
Divide the listed interval by 2 for vertical shaft applica­tions or for 24 hour operation.
Relubricate while running, if safety permits, until some purging occurs at seals. Adjust lubrication frequency depending on condition of purged grease. Hours of operation, temperature and surrounding conditions will affect the relubrication frequency required.
4. All motors supplied with Twin City Fan & Blower
ventilators carry a one year limited warranty from date of shipment. For repairs within the warranty period, the motor must be taken to the motor man-
ufacturer's authorized service dealer. Contact your TCF representative for additional warranty details.
5. A periodic motor check should consist of removing the belt, then spinning the motor shaft with the power off to be sure the motor turns freely and the bearings run smoothly.
6. When removing or installing a belt, do not force the belt over the sheave. Loosen the motor mount so that the belt can be easily slipped over the sheave. See Belt Adjustment, on page 8.
7. The belt should be removed and carefully checked for glazing, cracks, ply separation or irregular wear. A small irregularity in the contact surface of the belt will result in noisy operation. If any defects are apparent, the belt should be replaced.
8. Check sheaves for chipping, dents or rough sur­faces which could damage the belt. Always replace sheaves with identical size and type.
9. If the unit is left idle for an extended period, the belts should be removed and stored in a cool, dry place to avoid premature belt failure.
10. Check sheave setscrews to ensure tightness. Proper keys must be in keyways.
11. Check for proper belt alignment. See Figure 10. Improper alignment leads to excessive belt wear, vibration, noise and power loss.
12. For two-groove drives, matched belts must be used.
13. When replacing belts, use the same type & size as supplied on the unit.
14. The standard pillow block bearings on belt driven ventilators are factory lubricated and are provided with external grease fittings. Lubrication bi-annually is recommended, or more frequently if needed. (see Table 5). It is recommended to add fresh grease at start-up, but do not over-grease. Use only 1 or 2 shots of a recommended lubricant with a hand gun in most cases (see Table 5). Maximum hand gun rating of 40 psi. Rotate bearings during lubri­cation where good safety practice permits.
Caution: Greases of different soap bases (lithium,
sodium, etc.) may not be compatible when mixed. Prevent such intermixing by completely purg­ing the bearing of old greases.

15. The most frequent causes of bearing failure are not greasing often enough, using an excessive quantity of grease or using incompatible greases. Excessive vibration, especially if the bearing isn't rotating, will also cause bearings to fail. Bearings must also be protected from water and moisture to avoid internal corrosion.
16. During the first few months of operation, it is rec­ommended to periodically check the bearing set­screws to ensure tightness.
17. Wheels require attention when moving dirty or grease laden air. Regular cleaning is required to avoid imbalance caused by accumulation of grease or dust.
18. All fasteners should be checked for tightness dur­ing each maintenance.
