by the foregoing recommendations in order to make operator safety a reality.  
1-3 Responsibility  
These machines are constructed for maximum operator safety when used under standard  
operating conditions and when recommended instructions are followed in the maintenance  
and operation of the machine.  
All personnel engaged in the use of the machines should become familiar with their operation  
as described in this manual.  
Proper operation of the machine promotes safety for the operator and all workers in its  
vicinity.  
Each individual must take responsibility for observing the prescribed safety rules as outlined.  
All warning and danger signs must be observed and obeyed. All actual or potential danger  
areas must be reported to your immediate supervisor.  
General Responsibility  
No matter who you are, safety is important. Owners, operators and maintenance personnel  
must realize that every day, safety is a vital part of their jobs.  
If your main concern is loss of productivity, remember that production is always affected in a  
negative way following an accident. The following are some of the ways that accidents can  
affect your production:  
· Loss of a skilled operator (temporarily or permanently)  
· Breakdown of shop morale  
· Costly damage to equipment  
· Downtime  
An effective safety program is responsible and economically sound.  
Organize a safety committee or group, and hold regular meetings. Promote this group from  
the management level. Through this group, the safety program can be continually reviewed,  
maintained, and improved. Keep minutes or a record of the meetings.  
Hold daily equipment inspections in addition to regular maintenance checks. You will keep  
your equipment safe for production and exhibit your commitment to safety.  
Please read and use this manual as a guide to equipment safety. This manual contains safety  
warnings throughout, specific to each function and point of operation.

Operator Responsibility  
The operator’s responsibility does not end with efficient production. The operator usually has  
the most daily contact with the equipment and intimately knows its capabilities and  
limitations.  
Plant and personnel safety is sometimes forgotten in the desire to meet incentive rates, or  
through a casual attitude toward machinery formed over a period of months or years. Your  
employer probably has established a set of safety rules in your workplace. Those rules, this  
manual, or any other safety information will not keep you from being injured while operating  
your equipment.  
Learn and always use safe operation. Cooperate with co-workers to promote safe practices.  
Immediately report any potentially dangerous situation to your supervisor or appropriate  
person.  
REMEMBER:  
· NEVER place your hands or any part of your body in any dangerous location.  
· NEVER operate, service, or adjust the conveying system without appropriate training  
and first reading and understanding this manual.  
· NEVER try to pull material out of the conveying system with your hands while it is  
running!  
· Before you start the conveying system, check the following:  
· Remove all tools from the conveying system.  
· Be sure no objects (tools, nuts, bolts, clamps, bars) are lying in the  
area.  
· If your conveying system has been inoperative or unattended, check all settings before  
starting the unit.  
· At the beginning of your shift and after breaks, verify that the controls and other  
auxiliary equipment are functioning properly.  
· Keep all safety guards in place and in good repair. NEVER attempt to bypass, modify,  
or remove safety guards. Such alteration is not only unsafe, but will void the warranty  
on your equipment.  
· When changing control settings to perform a different mode of operation, be sure  
selector switches are correctly positioned. Locking selector switches should only be  
adjusted by authorized personnel and the keys removed after setting.  
· Report the following occurrences IMMEDIATELY:  
· unsafe operation or condition  
· unusual conveying system action  
· leakage  
· improper maintenance  
· NEVER stand or sit where you could slip or stumble into the  
conveying system while working on it.

· DO NOT wear loose clothing or jewelry, which can be caught while working on the  
conveying system. In addition, cover or tie back long hair.  
· Clean the conveying system and surrounding area DAILY, and inspect the machine for  
loose, missing or broken parts.  
· Shut off power to the conveying system when it is not in use. Turn the switch to the  
OFF position, or unplug it from the power source.  
Maintenance Responsibility  
Proper maintenance is essential to safety. If you are a maintenance worker, you must make  
safety a priority to effectively repair and maintain equipment.  
Before removing, adjusting, or replacing parts on a machine, remember to turn off all electric  
supplies and all accessory equipment at the machine, and disconnect and lockout electrical  
and pneumatic power. Attach warning tags to the disconnect switch and air shutoff valve.  
When you need to perform maintenance or repair work on a conveying system above floor  
level, use a solid platform or a hydraulic elevator. If there is a permanently installed catwalk  
on your conveying system, use it. The work platform should have secure footing and a place  
for tools and parts. DO NOT climb on the conveying system, machines, or work from  
ladders.  
If you need to repair a large component, use appropriate handling equipment. Before you use  
handling equipment (portable “A” frames, electric boom trucks, fork trucks, overhead cranes)  
be sure the load does not exceed the capacity of the handling equipment or cause it to become  
unstable.  
Carefully test the condition of lifting cables, chains, ropes, slings, and hooks before using  
them to lift a load.  
Be sure that all non-current carrying parts are correctly connected to earth ground with an  
electrical conductor that complies with current codes. Install in accordance with national and  
local codes.  
When you have completed the repair or maintenance procedure, check your work and remove  
your tools, rigging, and handling equipment.  
Do not restore power to the conveying system until all persons are clear of the area. DO  
NOT start and run the conveying system until you are sure all parts are functioning correctly.  
BEFORE you turn the conveying system over to the operator for production, verify all  
enclosure panels, guards and safety devices are in place and functioning properly.  
Reporting a Safety Defect  
If you believe that your equipment has a defect that could cause injury, you should  
immediately discontinue its use and inform the manufacturer.  
The principle factors that can result in injury are failure to follow proper operating procedures  
(i.e. lockout/tagout), or failure to maintain a clean and safe working environment.

2-1 Models Covered in This Manual  
This manual provides operation, installation, and maintenance instructions for the mechanical  
components of the conveying system. Model numbers are listed on the serial tag. Make sure  
you know the model and serial number of your equipment before contacting the manufacturer  
for parts or service.  
Our mechanical components are designed to create vacuum for conveying pelletized,  
granular, or powder material in a central material handling system. A typical use is as an in-  
plant distribution system for plastic processing plants. Conveying system mechanical  
components are sized to meet the specific requirements stated by the Customer at the time of  
purchase.  
2-2 General Description  
Our central vacuum systems are as varied as the applications that they service. Tubing and  
equipment furnished in a specially designed system is intended to convey the material(s)  
specified at the time of purchase at specific rates and distances.  
We can advise you on your system capabilities based on system makeup, distance, material,  
and desired conveying rates.  
Pressure drops in the overall system directly affect system capacity, such as number of  
material line bends, footage of pipe, Y-tubes, T-tubes, etc.  
The less distance, flexible hose, and bends you use on material lines, the better. Keep material  
lines as straight as possible.  
Note: Vacuum leaks occurring anywhere in your system reduce capacity.  
Basic System Components  
A typical conveying system contains the following components:  
· Vacuum receiver(s)  
· Vacuum pump  
· Filter chamber  
· Sequence or atmospheric valves  
· Controller  
· Take-off compartments  
· Pickup tubes/wands  
· Vacuum and material tubing

Time-Fill Systems  
A time-fill system conveys material to an on-line vacuum receiver for a pre-set time period.  
When this interval elapses, the controller conveys material to the next on-line vacuum  
receiver.  
Volume-Fill Systems  
A volume-fill system conveys material to an on-line vacuum receiver until the material level  
activates the proximity switch in the vacuum receiver, or a preset time elapses. When either  
of these conditions occur, the controller conveys material to the next on-line vacuum receiver.  
Conveying Distance  
Vacuum hoppers and Low Head Separators are installed over the material delivery point.  
The Vacuum Power Unit and material pick-up device, however, can be installed some  
distance from the delivery point. This distance is dependent upon the power unit chosen and  
the total equivalent feet required to convey the material.  
The manufacturer’s Engineering Department can advise you on your system’s capabilities  
given the system make-up, distance, material and desired conveying rates.  
Equipment Cycle  
Our bulk material conveying systems are used for automatic pneumatic handling of most  
free-flowing, dry, pelletized, powder granular materials. Add a Low Head Separator, and  
fine powders can be conveyed. Most systems are custom designed using standard  
components.  
A positive displacement blower draws air through the non-reversing valves on the Vacuum  
Power Unit. (See Figure 42 on page 105).  
The vacuum is drawn through a filter chamber to prevent material from reaching the blower.  
Signals from the programmable controller shift Sequence-“T” Valves to direct the vacuum  
through the station being filled to a material pick-up device.  
Material is sucked into a pick-up device and through the material tubing to the vacuum  
hopper or Low Head Separator, mounted or suspended over a storage bin or processing  
equipment.  
When the vacuum hopper is filled or the convey cycle times out, the convey cycle ends. The  
Vacuum Power Unit immediately shifts into blowback, dumping the material in the vacuum  
hopper.  
The blowback cycle backflushes air through the vacuum tubing to clean the filter chamber.  
The blowback feature cleans the filter chamber after each loading cycle and speeds emptying  
of the vacuum hopper. This operation is continuous and automatic. (See Figure 43 on page  
106).  
The programmable controller automatically shifts the appropriate sequence “T”-valves and  
starts the loading cycle at the next station in the cycle.  
The cycle continues until the programmable controller senses, through level sensors at each  
station, that all stations are filled.

Material characteristics determine the type of equipment needed to properly convey the  
material.  
See Figures 22 and 26 on pages 49 and 52 for typical system configurations.

2-4 Safety Devices and Interlocks  
This section includes information on safety devices and procedures that are inherent to the  
mechanical components of the conveying system. This manual is not intended to supersede or  
alter safety standards established by the user of this equipment. Instead, the material  
contained in this section is recommended to supplement these procedures in order to provide  
a safer working environment.  
At the completion of this section, the operator and maintenance personnel will be able to do  
the following:  
·
·
·
Identify and locate specific safety devices.  
Understand the proper use of the safety devices provided.  
Describe the function of the safety device.  
Safety Circuit Standards  
Safety circuits used in industrial systems protect the operator and maintenance personnel  
from dangerous energy. They also provide a means of locking out or isolating the energy for  
servicing equipment.  
Various agencies have contributed to the establishment of safety standards that apply to the  
design and manufacture of automated equipment. The Occupational Safety and Health  
Administration (OSHA) and the Joint Industrial council (JIC) are just a few of the  
organizations that have joined with the plastics industry to develop safety standards.  
Every effort has been made to incorporate these standards into the design of the mechanical  
components of the conveying system; however, it is the responsibility of the personnel  
operating and maintaining the equipment to familiarize themselves with the safety procedures  
and the proper use of any safety devices.  
Fail Safe Operation  
If a safety device or circuit should fail, the design must be such that the failure causes a  
“Safe” condition. As an example, a safety switch must be a normally open switch. The switch  
must be held closed with the device it is to protect. If the switch fails, it will go to the open  
condition, tripping out the safety circuit.  
Conveying System Mechanical Components Chapter 2: Functional Description  
43 of 138  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
At no time should the safety device fail and allow the operation to continue. For example, if  
a safety switch is guarding a motor, and the safety switch fails, the motor should not be able  
to run.  
Safety Device Lock-Outs  
Some safety devices disconnect electrical energy from a circuit. The safety devices that are  
used on the mechanical components of the conveying system are primarily concerned with  
electrical power disconnection and the disabling of moving parts that may need to be  
accessed during the normal operation of the machines.  
Some of the safety devices utilize a manual activator. This is the method of initiating the  
safety lock out. This may be in the form of a plug, lever or a handle. Within this lockable  
handle, there may be a location for a padlock. Personnel servicing the equipment should  
place a padlock in the lockout handle.  
In addition to the safety devices listed above, these mechanical components are equipped  
with a line cord plug. This allows the operator or maintenance personnel to unplug the  
system from its power source and tag it out. The plug can then be tagged with any number of  
approved electrical lockout tags available at most electrical supply stores.  
WARNING! Always disconnect and lockout all electrical power and pneumatic (i.e. compressed air)  
sources prior to servicing or cleaning the conveying system. Failure to do so may result  
in serious injury. No one but the person who installed the lockout may remove it.

Chapter 3: Installation  
3-1 Uncrating the Equipment  
The mechanical components of the conveying system are shipped mounted on a skid,  
enclosed in a plastic wrapper, and contained in a cardboard box.  
1. Pry the crating away from the skid.  
Note: Remove the nails holding the box to the skid and lift the box off carefully;  
avoiding staples in the 1’ x 4’ wood supports. Cut the steel banding.  
2. Use a pry bar to remove the blocks securing the unit to the skid.  
3. Lift unit from sides, inserting forklift under the base. The forks must be  
equidistant from the centerline of the unit and the unit must be balanced  
on the forks. Lift slowly and only high enough to clear the skid. Use a  
pry bar if necessary to carefully remove the skid from the unit.  
4. Lower slowly.  
5. Temporary hardware has been installed to prevent side panels from  
shifting in transit. Remove hardware.  
6. Retain the crating material for reshipping the components in case hidden  
shipping damage is found.  
3-2 Rigging and Placing Mechanical Components  
Conveying system installations vary depending on the application: in-plant distribution or rail  
car unloading, single or multiple material line systems, pellets, or powders. The sections on  
the following pages are general installation guidelines.  
Installing the Pump Package  
Place the vacuum pump where you can have easy access to the mechanical components.  
Choose a clean, dry place where debris won’t be drawn into the vent valve on top of the  
blower. If you install the unit outside, you must provide a weather shed to shelter the unit.  
1. Level the vacuum pump package. Use shims as needed.  
2. Secure the vacuum pump package with appropriately-sized bolts to the floor or  
mounting platform.  
3. Do not twist or warp the pump package base. This can misalign the blower housing  
and damage the blower.  
Vacuum Pump Vent Piping Considerations  
Most vacuum pumps are installed with no exhaust venting of the vacuum pump discharge. If  
your installation requires vacuum pump exhaust venting, follow these guidelines:  
· Venting exhaust air from vacuum pumps requires the installation of metal pipe or  
ducting. Make sure that no more than two inches water column (2” WC or about 0.5  
kPa) backpressure is present at the discharge of the vacuum pump silencer.  
Note: Improper sizing or ducting of exhaust air voids your warranty!  
Conveying System Mechanical Components Chapter 3: Installation  
45 of 138  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
· Use piping or ducting at least two (2) diameter sizes larger than the vacuum  
connection. Overall vent pipe length—horizontal plus vertical—should not exceed 100  
feet (about 30 m) and should not include more than three (3) elbows. If you use pipe  
for venting, make sure that you use Sch. 5 or Sch. 10 pipe with long radius elbows to  
provide minimum airflow resistance. If you use ducting, make sure you use high-  
pressure ducting with mitered bends—with a minimum of three (3) breaks—for  
minimum airflow resistance. Make sure all piping connections are properly supported.  
· If you are venting pump discharge outdoors, make sure you properly terminate vent  
piping to prevent pump damage. You can either:  
a. Install a rain cap, or  
b. Install the piping so the exhaust faces down and terminates with a screened  
opening.  
Note: If the pump becomes contaminated from rain or airborne particulates, or is  
damaged by birds, insects, or small animals, your warranty becomes void!  
Any variance from these guidelines can cause excessive pump backpressure.  
Such a condition can drastically affect equipment performance, possibly  
leading to equipment damage.

Installing the Control Panel  
Select a flat, vertical area for mounting the panel. It should be in an area that gives your  
operator access to the control. Consider how you are running wiring to the vacuum hoppers,  
the filter chamber, and pump motor starter(s), vacuum switch(s), and vent valve(s). The panel  
requires a low voltage grounded power drop as listed on the serial tag.  
Note: Avoid mounting control panel near material lines.  
Installing Material/Vacuum Tubing  
Well-designed material/vacuum piping systems provide the best conveying rates.  
Vacuum/material piping may be a single material line Y system or a multiple material line or  
a combination of the two systems, depending on the processing floor layout. All systems  
utilize a common vacuum header line for all stations connected to a pump package; material  
flow is controlled by sequence T or atmospheric valves operated by the control panel. When  
installing material/vacuum tubing, take the following into consideration:  
· Vacuum leaks anywhere in the system reduce system capacity.  
· Keep the number of material tube bends, elbows, Y-tubes, and vacuum T-tubes to a  
minimum for maximum system capacity.  
· Use long radius tube bends on material lines.  
· Keep the total length of material conveying flex hose to a minimum. Long flex hose  
material runs reduce system capacity.  
· Vertical material tubing runs should be straight up. Inclined runs can reduce capacity.  
· Support tubing about every ten feet with straps, pipe hangers, or brackets.  
· Tube joints must be rigid to prevent vacuum or material leaks.  
· Cut tube ends square and chamfer edges smooth. Use a fixed band saw or power miter  
saw when making cuts. You can use a tubing cutter on aluminum tubing, but you need  
to use a saw with a carbide or diamond-impregnated saw blade when cutting stainless  
steel. Chamfer outer and inner edge cuts with a die grinder or a hardened rasp file.  
· Clean all tubing after cutting and before assembly. Dampen a rag in a non-volatile  
cleaning solvent, and run it through all tubing and couplers to remove sediment from  
shipping or cutting. Run a quantity of low-grade material through new lines to remove  
any remaining sediment, and then discard the material immediately.  
· Tube ends must butt together inside couplers.  
· Tighten tube coupler nuts from the center outward to ensure a tight seal and allow  
proper contact of the internal grounding strip.  
· Each material tubing run must maintain an electrical continuity through the tubing and  
couplers, from pickup point to vacuum hopper. Grounded flexible hose is  
recommended.  
· If you must cut bends, cut the straight section, leaving enough straight length for  
complete insertion into a coupler.

· You can attach a quick-change or standard tube coupler to vinyl flex hose by inserting  
a stub of hard tube into the hose and securing it with a hose clamp. Be sure enough  
tube extends from the hose to properly install the quick-change or coupler. Make sure  
that you put clear silicone caulk around adjoining tube seams for exterior bolted  
couplers.  
· If you use stainless flexible material hose, the material flow must be in the direction as  
indicated by the arrows on the hose. Material direction is not critical with vinyl flex  
hose.  
· Bring all truck fill lines to a central location, such as a silo, unless otherwise specified.  
· All rail car manifold Y-tubes must be installed with a ten-degree (10º) downward slant  
from horizontal on the leg section. Make sure that space between rail car manifold  
Y-tubes are fifteen feet (15’/4.5 meters) on center to allow proper alignment between  
rail car discharge ports and the manifold Y-tubes.  
· A plug must be put in the last sequence T valve on the vacuum header to prevent  
vacuum loss. If atmospheric valves are used, you must terminate the vacuum line at the  
last atmospheric valve.  
Multiple Line System Piping Considerations  
· Multiple line systems have separate material lines for each material to allow different  
types of materials to be conveyed.  
· Multiple line systems have separate pickup devices for each vacuum hopper.  
· Materials are often loaded from beside the processing machine from gaylords, grinder  
takeoffs, and storage bin takeoffs.

Single Line Y-Tube System Considerations  
· Single line Y piping systems use a common material line for all vacuum receivers  
connected to a pump and are typically used to convey material from a central supply to  
several stations.  
· If you are installing a single line Y system, use Y tubes on the material lines. A Y tube  
is installed with the branch arm leading to the next station on top and the straight  
portion that supplies material to the station underneath.  
· Connect a short-radius bend to the straight portion as close to the Y as possible.  
· You must connect a minimum 2-foot (61 cm) straight length of tube to this short radius  
bend on the horizontal before the material tubing drops to the receiving point. If  
possible, incline this tube approximately 1/8” per foot (1 cm per meter).  
· On single line Y systems, you must install check valves on material inlet tubes inside  
vacuum receivers.  
Note: Do not use SSR03 or SSR06 vacuum receivers on single line Y systems.  
· You can install a long- or short-radius bend on the last station, where a Y-tube is not  
needed.

Figure 26: Typical Single Line Y-Tube System Installation  
Material Check Valves in Single Line Y-Tube Systems  
· Check valves are a critical feature on single line Y systems. You must have a check  
valve installed on the material inlet inside the receiver on all vacuum hoppers in single  
line Y installations.  
· Check valves must open when the receiver is being loaded and seal to prevent a  
vacuum leak when other hoppers are being loaded.  
· Vacuum receivers for these systems have a special factory-installed extended material  
inlet tube to hold the check valve.  
· The check valve must not be pressed too far onto the inlet stub to prevent proper  
sealing.  
· The hinge of the check valve should be up to prevent material from being deflected up  
into the vacuum hopper filter.  
· Do not allow vacuum receivers with check valves to be over-filled to a point above the  
bottom of the check valve. Over-filling prevents the check valve from sealing and  
creates a vacuum loss. Adjust the conveying time on Time-Fill systems to prevent this  
from happening.  
· Inspect periodically for erosion or wear. Replace as required.

Figure 27: Typical Material Check Valve  
Installing SFC or FC Filter Chambers  
The filter chamber protects the vacuum pump from damage caused by material carry-over.  
Primary system filtration occurs in the filter chamber, not in the vacuum receivers. This  
reduces maintenance of vacuum receiver filters atop processing machines.  
A vortex created in the filter chamber separates carry-over from the air stream and a  
cartridge-type filter catches any dust and fines drawn into the upper chamber.  
At the end of the conveying cycle to all on-line vacuum receivers, the dump delay cycle  
occurs. Atmospheric air from the vacuum line is introduced to the filter chamber, equalizing  
the pressure inside the filter chamber. The material discharge flapper valve falls open and  
dumps the fines and dust collected during the conveying cycle.  
A compressed air filter cleaning blow back option is available for systems conveying very  
dusty materials (See Figure 32 on page 65 for example). Consult the Sales Department for  
more information. To install the unit, perform the steps listed below:  
1. Level and secure the filter chamber near the pump package. Use 3/8” (9 mm) bolts to  
anchor the filter chamber.  
2. Connect the piping between the vacuum inlet valve on the pump package and the  
tube stub on the filter chamber lid. For easy filter maintenance, install at least three  
feet (3’ / 1 m) of vinyl flex hose at the end of the run to the filter chamber. The rest  
may be hard piping as long as it is properly supported.  
3. Run vacuum tubing from the tangential inlet tube to the vacuum header line servicing  
the vacuum hoppers. Turn the inlet tube toward the header. Support the tubing  
properly and make it vacuum-tight.

Note: Use of a system without an approved filter system  
installed on the vacuum air inlet voids the blower warranty!  
Installing the Filter Chamber Shroud  
The cloth filter shroud is mounted to a ring on the underside of the filter chamber stand. It  
reduces housekeeping duties around the filter chamber by preventing dust from becoming  
airborne when the dust and fines are discharged from the SFC filter chamber. The dust  
container below the shroud is customer-supplied—the standard 24” (61 cm) clearance stand  
is designed for use with a 5-gallon (19-liter) pail, and the optional 38” (96 cm) clearance  
stand is designed for use with a 55-gallon (208-liter) drum.  
1. Insert the filter shroud support wire into the slotted hole in the middle of the cloth  
filter shroud. Use supplied hardware to secure.  
2. Slip the filter shroud over the retaining ring located on the bottom side of the filter  
stand mounting plate. Secure it with the worm clamp provided.  
3. Place the dust container you’ve supplied below the filter chamber stand and insert the  
filter shroud.  
4. On standard 5-gallon (19-liter) pails, the filter shroud should be trimmed and fastened  
to the top lip of the can with a band clamp. Don’t trim the filter shroud on 55-gallon  
(208-liter) drums. Secure the drawstring on the shroud around the drum, making sure  
the open end of the shroud hangs freely inside the drum.  
5. Make sure the operation of the counterweighted flapper dump valve is not obstructed  
in any way by the filter shroud. See Figure 21 on page 47 for a typical example of a  
filter chamber shroud.  
Caution!  
Do not obstruct the filter shroud in any way. Empty the dust container  
before the dust level obstructs the end of the filter shroud.  
Failure to observe these directives may result in reduced filtering efficiency  
and contaminants entering the conveying system.  
Installing ACA Series Filter Chambers  
Powders or granular materials with fines can cling to filters and contaminate operating  
components. The ACA Series filter chamber is a self-cleaning filtration unit that enables such  
materials to be conveyed.  
During material conveying, fines accumulate on the outside of the filter media as the air  
passes through a filter bag. These fines must be periodically removed to prevent performance  
losses in the conveying system. The ACA Series filter utilizes a plant-based compressed air  
supply to clean filter bags with intermittent air pulses.  
At preset time intervals, a solenoid valve activates, interrupting continuous compressed air  
flow to the unit. This interruption causes an exhaust valve to open, allowing stored  
compressed air from an accumulator to be released down inside the filter bag. This  
momentary burst of air stops the flow of dust-laden air through the filter bag and flexes the  
filter fabric. This, along with the reverse flow of air, causes the accumulated dust to fall off  
the bag and back into the hopper for discharge.  
This instantaneous cleaning action of air pulses are directed to each individual filter bag in  
sequence and at a specified duration. You can adjust the time between air pulses; different  
conveying rates and materials require different air pulse times. Air pulses must occur more  
Conveying System Mechanical Components Chapter 3: Installation

frequently with increased dusting conditions. Since filter cleaning action is directed to an  
individual filter bag, remaining filter bags are on-stream, continually filtering conveying air.  
ACA Series filter chambers are shipped completely assembled to reduce customer installation  
time. Several mounting arrangements are available, depending on the mounting adapter  
supplied with the unit.  
ACA filter chambers are used with several different sizes of vacuum hoppers, depending on  
the mounting adapter supplied with the unit. Typical hopper sizes range from 0.8 cu. ft. to 6.0  
cu. ft. (22.7 liters to 169.9 liters); smaller hopper installations are also possible. You must  
install a bottom flange adapter when mounting the filter chamber to the vacuum hopper. The  
adapter increases overall height of the filter chamber unit; this may affect where you install  
the unit.  
Installing Vacuum Receivers and Inventory/Vacuum Receivers  
Vacuum uses one of three mounting systems: flange, suspension, or silo mounting. Vacuum  
receivers and inventory vacuum receivers use flange mountings only.  
· Remove all rubber banding and any other packaging materials from around the flapper  
dump valve before installation for proper operation.  
Complete the vacuum and material tubing to the vacuum receivers. Final connections are  
usually made with flexible hose.  
Note: On single line Y systems, you must install a check valve on the material inlet of  
each hopper.  
Installing the Safety Filter  
Use the following procedure to install the safety filter:  
1. Place the safety filter in the conveying system directly before the vacuum pump.  
2. Using 7/16”, Grade 5 or better hardware, secure the filter in place:  
Wall Mount. Use the mounting flange to secure the filter to the wall.  
Floor Mount. Bolt the floor stand to the ground.  
Pump Mount. Bolt the pump and stand to the ground. Pump-mount is only available with  
SPC pumps.  
WARNING! Make sure all screws are strong enough to hold the weight of the filter.  
·
Connect the vacuum line to the filter chamber’s inlet tube (A). Use a hose clamp to  
secure the flexible hose.  
·
Connect the vacuum pump line to the outlet tube (B). Use a hose clamp to secure the  
flexible hose.

3-3 Compressed Air Blowback Connection  
To provide proper filter element cleaning, the compressed air supply must be regulated to 80  
PSI (5.5 bars). Low air pressure will cause poor filter element cleaning. Air consumption  
depends on the frequency and length of cleaning air pulses into the filter element.  
Connect a minimum of 3/8” (9 mm) air line to the top of the solenoid valve air block.  
Compressed air must be clean, dry, and free of oil. A filter regulator and shut-off are  
recommended components of your in-plant air supply. In-line filters can handle small  
amounts of moisture; in-line desiccant filters or packed beds of granular absorbing polymer  
can remove oil mist and condensed oil.  
You may need to install an accumulator in your air supply system to enhance blowback  
effectiveness if your system cannot consistently meet these requirements. Make sure you  
use full-sized 3/8” or larger diameter pipe or tubing when making the connection.  
3-4 Implosion Blowback Connection  
The clearing valve (implosion blowback valve) is located on the outlet of the vacuum  
filter. Connect the clearing valve to a 60-80 PSI (4.1-5.5 Bar) compressed air supply.  
Compressed air must be clean, dry and free of oil.  
Run a 3/8” (9 mm) branch line to supply the vacuum hoppers in your system. Install a 3/8”  
(9 mm) x 1/8” (3 mm) tee valve in the up position near the filter chamber.  
Connect shop compressed air to port number 3 on the clearing valve solenoid with 1/4”  
(approx. 6 mm) poly tubing. Connect port number 2 to the clearing valve. Port 1 is to be  
exhausted to the atmosphere. (See Figure 29 below).  
The 3/8” (9 mm) branch supply line should include a shut-off valve for on/off control, an air  
filter/pressure regulator with a gauge for pressure control, and mini-lubricators located at  
each vacuum receiver. Install a quick-disconnect fitting or a shut-off valve in the  
compressed air piping leading to the vacuum receiver’s clearing valve to speed receiver  
cover removal for cleanout or service.

Flange Mount Vacuum Receiver Mounting  
These units are designed to fit in existing equipment with standard 10” mounting holes that  
will accept our vacuum receivers.  
þ
For new installations, the recommended cut-out is a 10” (25.4 mm) –diameter round  
hole with six (6) mounting holes equally spaced on an 11.0” (279.4 mm) OD bolt  
circle. The factory provides 5/16” holes on the mounting flange to allow proper bolt  
clearance.  
Orienting the Unit  
The factory provides (12) mounting holes locations on the 11.0” (279.4 mm) OD mounting  
bolt circle. Under most conditions, using six (6) of the mounting holes with the proper  
hardware is sufficient to secure the unit to other equipment.  
þ Make sure that mounting hardware is equally spaced along the bolt circle.  
The twelve holes on the mounting bolt circle let you rotate the unit in 30 degree increments to  
match the orientation of piping and wiring of the equipment.  
Note: If you need a finer orientation or if you need to adjust the mounting position,  
locate the six holes on the inside of the mounting flange ring.  
To allow for better orientation of equipment installations, the junction box bracket (located  
on the mounting flange) has been designed to mount during installation by utilizing two of  
the mounting locations along the bolt circle.  
To mount the junction box assembly:  
1. Mount the vacuum receiver using four (4) of the six (6) bolts.  
2. Cut the temporary straps securing the junction box assembly to the mounting flange.  
3. Orient the junction box assembly along the mounting bolt circle location.  
Stop when the location most closely matches the preferred installation orientation.  
The mounting holes for the junction box bracket must line up with two of the holes  
on the mounting bolt circle flange.  
Be careful of wiring on or around the unit.  
4. Secure the junction box assembly with hardware through the remaining two (2)  
mounting flange holes. Properly tighten to secure the assembly to the flange.  
Positioning and Spacing on the Demand Switch  
The factory has pre-set the demand switch position for proper operation and, under most  
operating conditions, does not require adjustment.  
The demand switch has two wires to provide for a normally open signal to the central  
controller (close to the load):  
· A common (black) contact, and  
· A closed (white) contact  
The demand switch sends a signal to the central controller when the material discharge  
flapper is closed and the unit calls for material.  
Most controllers utilize a closed contact to signal the conveying system controller that a  
material demand condition exists (using the black and white wires).

Note: The Demand/Level sensor is not designed to be connected to a load. Do not  
connect external devices to the sensor wires.  
This switch is designed for signal load only.  
Connecting the sensor to a load VOIDS YOUR WARRANTY!  
If the switch is not providing a signal to the controller, check the following:  
1. Check that the proper wire connections are made.  
· Secure the connections.  
2. Make sure that the switch is not connected to any external load device.  
· Disconnect the load device, connect wiring to the system controller  
only.  
3. Consult with ACS Service Engineers for proper switch/magnet spacing.  
Once the vacuum receiver and Demand Switch have been properly oriented, complete the  
installation by performing the following:  
1. Run a bead of silicone sealant around the mounting flange before seating the vacuum  
receiver. This makes a better seal.  
2. Use nuts and screws to mount the hopper. Nuts and bolts can loosen, fall off, and  
damage process equipment.  
3. Check across the mounting flange with a bubble level. A level installation is  
important for proper operation.  
4. Properly ground all vacuum receivers.  
Installing the Pickup Probe  
Pickup probes (See Figure 20 on page 43 for an example) are used to empty gaylords or bulk  
material containers located beside the processing machine. A conveying system can use  
horizontal take-offs or vertical pickup probes (or a combination of the two) to supply material  
to the vacuum receivers. To ensure maximum conveying rates by your system, take the  
following into consideration:  
· Locate the supply container near the vacuum receiver.  
· Connect the pickup probe to a vacuum hopper material inlet tube with a minimum  
amount of tubing, bends, and flex hose.  
· Secure the flex hose at the probe and the material inlet with hose clamps. Be sure to  
avoid loops and kinks, and install grounding wire around the outside of flex hose to  
prevent static built-up. Make sure you ground both ends of the grounding wire.  
· Put the pickup probe in the material supply. The burrowing action of the probe  
provides a steady flow of material.  
· To vary the convey rate, cover or open the vent holes on the pickup probe as needed  
with the inlet tube.  
· If your material bridges frequently and triggers No-Convey alarm conditions, you  
should consider using a gaylord tilter or tilter/jogger to supply a steady stream of  
material to your conveying system.  
· Container tilters are recommended for complete cleanout of gaylords.

Installing the Grinder Take-off Attachment  
A grinder take-off attachment (See Figure 17 on page 41 for an example) is typically  
mounted horizontally through the side of a grinder or granulator bin or any other straight  
sided supply bin.  
1. The take-off attachment is mounted through a hole cut close to the bottom of the bin  
to allow emptying as much material as possible.  
2. Cut a hole smaller than the mounting plate.  
3. Mount the take-off attachment with the mitered air inlet tube on top, and the straight  
material outlet on the bottom.  
4. Mark and drill holes to match the mounting plate holes. Fasten tightly with sheet  
metal screws, bolts, or rivets.  
5. Secure the mounting hardware with a removable thread locking adhesive, cotter pins,  
aircraft fasteners, etc. to prevent the hardware from vibrating loose and being  
conveyed into the processing machine.  
6. You should attach grounded flex hose to the material outlet and the vacuum receiver  
with hose clamps. The other tube is the air inlet to supply make-up air to the bin.  
Avoid loops or kinks in the flex hose.  
Installing and Adjusting the Take-off Compartment  
Take-off compartments (TOCs) are installed under surge bins, silos, or other storage devices.  
TOCs are available in a single position complete cleanout style with a V-shaped bottom or a  
box type with one or more material takeoff positions (See Figure 18 on page 41 for an  
example.).  
You can have several different size tubes for several different sized pump packages  
conveying a material from a central supply to several destinations.  
Take-off compartments are typically pre-drilled for mounting and their outlets are sized to fit  
the pump package, material, and distance specified at the time of purchase. To optimize the  
use of your take-off compartment, provide for the following:  
· Make sure that a three-foot (1 m) horizontal run is present prior to installing elbows.  
· Install the TOC so the outlet tubes can head out unobstructed in the direction of the  
material destination.  
· Use long radius bends on TOC outlets.  
· Provide access for removing and cleaning TOC inlet air filters.  
· Provide access for cleanout doors on TOCs.  
Most TOCs have adjustable material inlet tubes to fine-tune the material to air ratio for  
optimal conveying rates. To adjust:  
1. Loosen the set screw on the adjusting dial and turn the tube clockwise one third of  
the way from the 0 (zero) mark.  
2. Turn ON the conveying system and start loading from the takeoff.  
Conveying System Mechanical Components Chapter 3: Installation

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
3. Rotate the dial until the material flows at a steady rate, then throttle it back a bit when  
surging or flooding occurs. System vacuum should be between 8” Hg (271 millibars)  
to 12” Hg (339 millibars) for best rates.  
4. Lock the dial in place with the set screw when you have determined the best setting  
for a particular material. Make note of the setting and vacuum level for future  
reference.  
Adjusting Fast Take-off (FCO) Compartments  
When adjusting fast clean-out take-off compartments, make adjustments in small increments  
(especially in systems with long runs) to allow air flow to equalize throughout the system.  
FCO-1.5M  
In some applications, material flow characteristics may require a more defined air-to-material  
ratio. You can do this easily by covering one or more of the aeration holes located at the top  
of the inlet tube in FCO-1.5M fast clean-out take-off compartment models.  
FCO-1.5MD  
The FCO-1.5MD model fast take-off compartment has adjustable inner tubes fitted to the  
fixed outer tube. These adjustable inner tubes are locked down by a hold-down screw on the  
outer tube. Loosen this screw to adjust the inner tube.  
When the adjustable inner tube is completely inside the material compartment and the  
indicator knob is in a vertical position, no material can be conveyed in the system. Adjust the  
tube by pulling it away and keeping the indicator knob vertical.  
The maximum amount of material can convey when the reference hole on the adjustable  
inner tube is outside the edge of the outer tube. Vary the amount of material conveyed by  
rotating the inner adjustable tube.  
To clean out material in the FCO-1.5MD model fast take-off compartment, unscrew the plug  
at the bottom.  
Installing the Powder Check Adapter (Box Style; EVTO; FEVTO only)  
The powder check adapter is usually factory-installed. When installing the powder check  
adapter, make sure you install it on the tube stub as shown below. Remove the filter on the  
take-off compartment and install the adapter using the four screws provided, then replace the  
filter. No other adjustments are required.

3-5 Compressed Air Connections  
Making ACA Series Filter Chamber Compressed Air Connections  
To provide proper filter bag cleaning, make sure that you regulate the compressed air supply  
to 80 psig (551.6 kPa/ 5.52 bars). Air consumption depends on frequency and length of  
cleaning air pulses into the filter bags. Higher pressures can shorten the life of filter bags;  
lower pressures cause poor filter bag cleaning.  
Connect a ¼” (approx. 6.3 mm) air line to the bottom of the solenoid valve air block. Make  
sure that the compressed air you use is clean, dry, and free of oil. In-line filters can handle  
small amounts of moisture; in-line desiccant filters or packed beds of granular absorbing  
polymer can remove oil mist and condensed oil.  
Making Pump Compressed Air Connections  
Connect the vacuum pump to a minimum of 60 psi to 80 psi (414 kPa to 552 kPa) source of  
clean, dry, lightly lubricated compressed air. Make the 1/8” NPT (3 mm) connection at the  
solenoid valve on the pump package.  
Your compressed air supply piping should include:  
1. A shutoff valve for ON/OFF control.  
2. A pressure regulator with gauge.  
3. An air filter/lubricator.  
Connecting Vacuum Receivers with Atmospheric Valve Compressed Air Lines  
See Figure 31 on the following page for an illustration of a typical atmospheric valve. Most  
conveying systems use atmospheric valves to direct system vacuum into the vacuum hoppers.  
You should be able to locate the atmospheric valve in one of three places:  
· Installed on top of TF or VF Series vacuum receivers  
· Installed in the vacuum header on SR Series vacuum receivers  
Connect the atmospheric valve to 60 psi to 80 psi (414 kPa to 552 kPa) source of clean, dry,  
lightly lubricated compressed air.  
Run a 3/8” (9 mm) branch line off the plant air main to supply the vacuum hoppers in your  
system. Install a 3/8” (9 mm) x 1/8” (3 mm) tee in the UP position near each hopper.  
Connect compressed air to the normally closed port on the atmospheric valve solenoid valve  
with a 1/8” (approx. 3 mm) pipe nipple. Connect the common port to the atmospheric valve  
using 1/4” (6 mm) poly tube and connectors.

(3) Normally Open = Exhaust Port  
Your 3/8” (9 mm) branch supply line should include:  
1. A shutoff valve for ON/OFF control.  
2. An air filter/pressure regulator with a gauge for pressure control.  
3. Mini-lubricators located at each vacuum receiver.  
Install a quick-disconnect fitting or a shutoff valve in the compressed air piping leading to the  
vacuum receiver atmospheric valve to speed receiver cover removal for cleanout or service.  
Connecting Vacuum Receivers with Sequence-T Valve Compressed Air Lines  
See Figure 32 on the following page for an illustration of a typical sequence-T valve. Critical  
dried resin systems sometimes require sequence-T valves to prevent drawing humid atmo-  
spheric air into the material supply. Sequence-T valves are usually installed in the vacuum  
header above the vacuum hoppers.  
Note: The sequencing valve is located in the cover on SR Series vacuum receivers if  
you selected the internal sequencing valve option.  
If mounted in the vacuum line, connect the sequence-T valve to a 60 psi to 80 psi (414 kPa to  
552 kPa) source of clean, dry, lubricated compressed air.  
Run a 3/8” (9 mm) branch line off the plant air main to the sequence T valves in your system.  
Install a 3/8” (9 mm) x 1/8” (3 mm) tee in the up position near each receiver.  
Connect compressed air to the normally open port on top of the sequence-T valve solenoid

3-6 Electrical Connections  
Refer to local electrical codes, the schematic, and connection diagrams supplied with this unit  
and the serial tag for wiring considerations. Run all wiring in conduit if codes require it.  
Label all wiring to make any future troubleshooting easier. Make all electrical connections  
tight.  
Making ACA Series Filter Chamber Electrical Connections  
WARNING! Be safety conscious!  
High or low voltage can cause serious or fatal injury.  
Installation must be performed by qualified personnel only!!  
Always disconnect power source before attempting installation or repair.  
Mount the control box in any convenient location free from excessive vibration where the  
temperature does not exceed 120ºF (49ºC). Power supply and solenoids are 115/1/60 for  
Models 91/93, 131/133, and 251/253 ACA filter chambers; choice of 115 VAC, 230 VAC or  
24 VDC on 51/53 models. Locate the power supply terminal inside the control enclosure.  
Provide a hole as needed for the power supply cord and connect to L1, L2, and ground. See  
the electrical schematic wiring diagram supplied in your Customer Information Packet for  
more information.  
Provide another hole in the control enclosure for wiring the solenoid valves on the filter  
chamber. Locate the terminal strip inside the control enclosure and connect the solenoid valve  
wiring in the order shown in the electrical schematic wiring diagram supplied in your  
Customer Information Packet. The order of wiring determines the sequence of the filter bag  
cleaning air pulses.  
Making Pump Power Drop Wiring Connections  
Pump packages are connected to a three-phase power supply. Bring properly sized power  
leads in conduit to the contacts in the junction box of each pump package in the system.  
Complete the pump wiring connections by performing the following:  
· Install a properly-sized fused disconnect switch with lockout on the main lines to each  
vacuum pump package. This is recommended even for pumps with optional fused  
disconnects.  
· Check the serial tag for voltage and amperage requirements. On 60 Hz units, voltage  
supplied to the unit must be within plus or minus ten percent (±10%) of the serial tag  
value; on 50 Hz units, within plus or minus five percent (±5%) of the serial tag value.  
Phase imbalance must be less than 2% in accordance with NEMA MG1-14.32.  
· Ground the unit for operator safety and equipment protection.  
Making Control Panel Power Drop Wiring Connections  
Plug the controllers’ power cord into a properly grounded, 3-slot, 115/1/60 VAC or 230/1/60  
VAC receptacle as specified on the control panel serial tag and the enclosed controller  
Operation and Instruction manual. The control enclosure draws less than 5 amps during  
normal operation at 115/1/60 VAC.

Caution!  
The manufacturer recommends that you protect PLC memory by providing  
the control panel with a dedicated circuit, a true earth ground, and a  
spike/surge protector.  
Connecting the Control Panel to Vacuum Receivers  
Refer to the wiring connection drawings shown on the next page and to your conveying  
control panel’s diagrams for general connections.  
Note: Each control panel is supplied with specific control schematics and a separate  
Operation and Instruction manual. To ensure proper conveying system  
operation, install the equipment according to the enclosed instructions.  
· Wire the Atmospheric/Sequence-T solenoid (SOL) valve to the terminal provided in  
the conveying system control panel enclosure.  
· Wire the Bin Full/Hopper Full switch (LS/PRS) to the terminal provided in the  
conveying system control panel enclosure.  
· On 115 VAC control voltage systems, run a common hot (115 VAC) wire and a  
common neutral wire from the controller to each vacuum receiver in the conveying  
system.  
· On 24 VDC control voltage systems, run a common +24 VDC wire and a common 0  
(zero) VDC wire from the controller to each vacuum receiver in the conveying system.  
· On all systems, run two wires to each vacuum hopper: one each from the controller to  
the Bin-Full switch (LS) and to the Atmospheric/Sequence-T solenoid (SOL) valve.  
Note:  
The conveying system control panel is supplied with a terminal strip  
at the upper right corner for + positive and negative wire  
connections.  
· Be sure the solenoid and proximity switch(s) (if supplied) on vacuum  
receivers are the same voltage (24 VDC or 115 VAC) as the  
conveying system control panel control voltage. Consult the control  
panel serial tag and the solenoid valve nameplates.  
· Wire size depends on control voltage, distance, number of vacuum  
receivers, and the number of wires in each raceway. Consult a  
qualified electrician.  
· Properly ground each receiver to reduce static build-up generated by  
material conveying.

Installing Station Bypass Switches  
The manufacturer recommends field-installing a station bypass switch (shown below) in a  
convenient location at each vacuum hopper in series with the flapper dump Bin Full (LS)  
switch. Check local codes.  
Turning off this bypass switch simulates a full machine bin, cancels a No-Convey alarm, and  
takes the receiver out of the loading sequence until the switch is closed. This allows on-the-  
fly processing changes and cancels No-Convey alarms.  
If the bypass switch is turned off while a hopper is filling, the switch simulates a full vacuum  
hopper and stops the conveying of material to that hopper immediately.

Connecting the Control Panel to the Pump Package  
Note: Consult the specific schematics and Operation & Instruction manual supplied  
with your controller for your specific application.  
· Wire the pump package motor starter coil (M) to the terminal provided in the  
conveying system control panel enclosure.  
· Wire the pump package vacuum relief valve solenoid (SOL A) to the terminal provided  
in the conveying system control panel enclosure.  
· Wire the pump package high vacuum switch (VS) to the terminal located in the  
conveying system control panel enclosure.  
· On SPDB pumps, wire the pump package blowback solenoid (SOL B) to the terminal  
located in the conveying system control panel enclosure.  
· On 115 VAC control voltage systems, run a common hot 115 VAC wire and a  
common neutral wire from the controller to the pump package in the conveying  
system.  
· On 24 VDC control voltage systems, run a common +24 VDC wire and a common 0  
(zero) VDC wire from the controller to the pump package in the conveying system.  
Note: Make sure that the pump motor starter, the vacuum relief valve solenoid, and  
the blowback solenoid (if supplied) are the same voltage (24 VDC or 115 VAC)  
as the conveying system control panel control voltage. Consult the control  
panel serial tag and the pump package serial tag.  
Wire size depends on control voltage, distance, number of vacuum hoppers,  
and the number of wires in each raceway. Consult a qualified electrician.

3-7 Initial Start-up  
Making Startup Checks  
Before operating the conveying system, check these details:  
1. All components in the system must be installed securely and prepared for operation.  
Refer to the instructions supplied with auxiliary equipment for specific checks.  
2. Couplers, fittings, attachments, and flexible lines must be attached securely and be  
vacuum-tight.  
3. Electrical and compressed air connections to the pump package, vacuum hoppers,  
and filter chambers must be complete, safe, and conform to code.  
4. The pump package blower gearbox must be filled with oil as specified in the  
manufacturer’s instructions included in the customer information package.  
Caution!  
Do not overfill the blower gearbox with oil; too much oil damages the  
blower.  
5. If not done already, remove the plastic plug from the silencer air outlet.  
WARNING! Keep hands away from the open air inlet to avoid injury!  
6. Do not allow any loose parts, tools, or foreign materials in or near the unit and other  
system components.  
7. Check for proper motor rotation, as indicated by an arrow on the pump package  
motor. Bump-start the pump package with the compressed air disconnected just long  
enough to verify proper rotation direction.  
Note: To change motor rotation:  
a. Disconnect power at the external disconnect.  
b. Switch any two incoming power leads on the main power supply.  
8. Make sure that filter chamber housings have no leaks; check stretcher clamps for  
tightness.  
Adjusting Sight Glass Proximity Sensor Sensitivity  
You can adjust the sensitivity of the material level proximity sensor in the sight glass. The  
factory setting usually is correct for most applications. The sensor is factory-installed to the  
frame; however, you should install the sensor at the material level height you want.  
When adjusting, fill the glass and verify that the sensor detects your material. The LED on  
the switch goes out when it detects material.  
· For increased sensitivity, turn the potentiometer clockwise.  
· For decreased sensitivity, turn the potentiometer counterclockwise.  
· Consult proximity switch instructions if necessary or call Service Department.

Adjusting Air Pulse Duration: All Models  
Locate the on-time potentiometer inside the control enclosure on the circuit board. With the  
unit operating, turn the potentiometer counterclockwise to shorten the air pulse duration; turn  
clockwise to lengthen the air pulse.  
ACA Series Filter Chamber Pre-Operation Checklist  
Check the following before you operate ACA Series filter chambers:  
1. Make sure all mechanical installations are complete.  
2. Make sure all electrical and compressed air connections are complete and correct.  
3. Make sure that no leaks are present in the filter chamber housing. Check stretcher  
clamps for tightness.  
Adjusting Time Between Air Pulses on ACA Filters  
Models 91/93, 151/153, and 251/253  
The time between cleaning air pulses requires adjusting to match up with dusting  
characteristics of the material being conveyed. If more dusting occurs, then more frequent  
compressed air pulses are required to clean filter bags.  
Locate the off-time control potentiometer inside the control enclosure and adjust from 0- to  
30-second intervals between air pulses to match material conveying characteristics.  
Adjusting the Number of Air Pulses  
Model 51/53 Low Boy  
Locate the DIP switch inside the blowback control box. Set the DIP switch to the number of  
pulses you want from 1 to 16, using the DIP switch settings shown in the following figure.  
The diagram is also shown on the blowback control box electrical schematic located in your  
Customer Service Packet.

Starting ACA Series Filter Chamber Units  
With all adjustments complete, turn on clean, dry, oil-free compressed air and regulate to 60  
psi to 80 psi (414 kPa to 552 kPa). Turn the power on/off switch to ON; the unit then  
automatically self-cleans the filter bags. An indicator light on the control box for Model  
91/93, 151/153, and 251/253 ACA filter chambers illuminates each time a compressed air  
pulse is directed into a filter bag.  
Note: If for any reason the power is turned off, wait at least three (3) seconds to reset.  
During initial startup, you’ll note some dusting occurring at the clean air  
exhaust. This condition is normal with new filter bags until the exterior  
surfaces of the bags become evenly coated with dust particles, which prevents  
fine material from passing through the filter bag pores. This dusting condition  
should stop after the first several hours of operation.  
Adjusting Proximity Sensor Sensitivity  
Models Equipped with Volume-Fill Switch Only  
A proximity switch mounted in VF, SSR and SSR vacuum receivers detects when the  
vacuum receiver has been filled during a conveying sequence, telling the conveying system  
control to move on to the next on-line vacuum receiver in the sequence. This speeds the  
conveying cycle and shuts the pump down promptly to conserve electricity if all the bins  
being loaded are full.  
The sensitivity of the vacuum receiver material level sensor can be adjusted. The factory  
setting is correct for most applications. The sensor is mounted through the wall of the vacuum  
receiver.  
Note: The adjusting potentiometer is located beneath a plastic cover screw near the  
sensor LED indicator. Remove the protective cover screw before making  
adjustments and replace it when finished.  
Note: Before adjusting the Receiver-Full sensor, make sure that the Bin Full sensor  
is in the closed position.  
When adjusting, fill a vacuum hopper to see if the switch detects your material. The LED on  
the switch goes out when it detects material.  
· For increased sensitivity, turn the potentiometer clockwise.  
· For decreased sensitivity, turn the potentiometer counterclockwise.  
· Consult proximity switch instructions if necessary or call Service Department.

Chapter 4: Operation  
4-1 Start-up  
Starting ACA Series Filter Chamber Units  
Turn on clean, dry, oil-free compressed air and regulate to 60 psi to 80 psi (414 kPa to 552  
kPa). Turn the power on/off switch to ON; the unit then automatically self-cleans the filter  
bags. An indicator light on the control box for Model 91/93, 151/153, and 251/253 ACA filter  
chambers illuminates each time a compressed air pulse is directed into a filter bag.  
Note: If for any reason the power is turned off, wait at least three (3) seconds to reset.  
4-2 Operation Procedures  
When you activate the controller, the system energizes and initiates the conveying cycle. The  
following components energize:  
· The vacuum pump motor starter.  
· The vacuum pump vent valve.  
· The sequencing valve above the first on-line vacuum receiver that  
requires material.  
The vacuum pump draws vacuum to that receiver. When the receiver is full or the time  
interval elapses, the controller then signals the atmospheric valve above the next on-line  
receiver requiring material to energize, allowing material to convey to that receiver. The  
conveying sequence continues to the last on-line vacuum receiver requiring material.  
When the time interval for the last receiver elapses or the receiver is full, a new conveying  
cycle begins at the first on-line vacuum receiver requiring material.  
Note: The sequence of events listed above is a generalized description of what occurs  
when a controller is activated. Consult your specific controller manual for an  
accurate depiction of these events.  
Vacuum Switch (VS) Operation  
A high vacuum switch is mounted inside a pump package junction box. It is preset to close at  
14” Hg (475 millibars) and is not adjustable. The vacuum switch protects the pump package  
from motor damage caused by high amperage draw and strain on the blower.  
Pumps typically draw a vacuum of less than 5” Hg (170 millibars) only when air is pulled  
into the system and 8” to 12” Hg (271 to 339 millibars) while conveying.  
If system vacuum should reach 14” Hg (475 millibars), the high vacuum switch closes. The  
pump package tries to clear the line for three seconds, then moves to the next on-line vacuum  
receiver. The normal conveying cycle continues. If high vacuum keeps occurring, the pump  
continues with attempts to clear the line.  
See your specific controller manual for additional operation information.

High Vacuum Relief Regulator Operation  
A factory-set pressure regulator is installed on the pump package vent valve as a mechanical  
back-up safety feature. It protects the pump motor from damage during high vacuum  
conditions if an undetected failure of the vacuum switch should occur. The regulator is set to  
limit system vacuum to 15” Hg (475 millibars) by allowing the vent valve plunger to shift  
and vent the pump. SPC vacuum relief is set at lower levels based on vacuum pump  
performance curves.  
Note: Do not adjust the pressure regulator. Adjusting the pressure regulator voids  
your warranty.  
See Figure 36 on page 71 for additional operation information.  
4-3 Shut-down  
To deactivate the conveying system:  
1. Turn the disconnect switch at each pump or component to OFF. This will take each  
pump or component offline.  
2. Turn off the compressed air supply to the system.  
Note: Consult your specific controller operation and instruction manual for specific  
shut-down information for your conveying system.

5-2 Preventative Maintenance  
Maintaining Pump Packages  
Pump packages need periodic maintenance to provide long dependable service. Check these  
elements regularly:  
· Maintain a proper oil level in the blower gearbox. The manufacturer’s brochure  
(packed with the pump package) recommends oils, and lists instructions for checking  
the oil level. See Oil Capacities chart on following page.  
· Pack blower bearings with high temperature ball bearing grease and change the oil to  
the manufacturer’s recommendations.  
· V-belts are sized for maximum life with the pump package blower/motor combination.  
Inspect periodically for proper tension, and replace when worn.  
Note: V-belts stretch when new. Check belt tension after you have run them in. At  
proper belt tension, the belt should deflect downward 1/64” for every one inch  
span (1 mm every 6.4 cm) from sheave to sheave.  
· Keep the pump package area clear of any debris that could be drawn through the vent  
valve and into the blower while the pump package is idling.  
· Torque the motor and blower sheave bolts to 72 ft.-lbs. (98 NŸm).  
· Check the moisture traps in the compressed air lines. Drain as needed.  
· Check the compressed air lubricator(s) for flow rate and level. Use only 1 or 2 drops  
of oil per day when lubricating. Adjust and fill as necessary.  
· Inspect the silencer periodically for contamination. Silencer fouling indicates poor  
filter maintenance at the vacuum hopper or filter chamber. Fines may also be drawn  
into the silencer through the pump package vent valve during the dump cycle from  
poor housekeeping near the pump package.  
Caution!  
Make sure you replace a contaminated silencer immediately to avoid  
blower damage and possible fire hazard.  
· Standard pump package TEFC motors do not require lubrication or oiling. Optional  
motors may have different requirements. Refer to the motor manufacturer’s  
specification sheet in your Customer Information Packet.  
· Keep the control panel and pump package junction boxes securely closed to prevent  
component contamination.  
· Inspect air cylinders and plugers for proper operation.  
· Verify that all safety components/circuits are in full operational conditions.

Maintaining Filter Chambers  
SFC Filter Chambers  
SFC filter chamber maintenance is much easier if you use vinyl flex hose for making the final  
connection to the cover. See Figure 55 on page 118 for a complete parts list.  
To check the filter element:  
1. Unlatch the clamp that secures the cover assembly.  
2. Lift off the cover and look for element fouling or wear:  
· If the filter is worn, replace with P/N A0571262 (SFC-S), P/N  
A0547008 (SFC225), or P/N A0547007 (SFC1000).  
· If the filter is lightly soiled, remove the filter and clean with  
compressed air. Blow it out from the inside.  
3. To remove the filter:  
a. Note the orientation of the components.  
b. Unscrew the retaining cover.  
4. Wipe down the gasket and filter retainer/SFC cover mating surfaces to ensure a good  
seal.  
5. Blow out the cartridge filter with compressed air. Blow from the inside out.  
6. Re-install the filter and filter retainer. Do not over tighten the retainer. A snug fit is  
required for a proper seal.  
7. Secure the cover assembly with the clamp.  
· Periodically inspect the flapper assembly gasket and disk for signs of  
wear. A good vacuum seal is important for proper operation.  
· Periodically inspect the flapper dump assembly for proper operation.  
The flapper should swing freely.  
Note: The counterbalance should be adjusted so the flapper remains open from 3/16”  
(4 mm) to 1/4” (6 mm) when not under vacuum.  
Inspecting ACA Series Filter Chamber Filter Bags  
Schedule regular filter bag inspections to maintain the operational efficiency of the filter  
chamber. Make sure that schedules coincide with materials that are being conveyed. Dusty  
materials require more frequent filter bag examinations.  
1. Turn off compressed air and disconnect the electrical power supply.  
2. Remove the stretcher clamp just below the externally mounted solenoid valves.  
Be careful to avoid damaging the gasket between tank sections.  
3. Lift off the upper tank section with accumulator, blowpipes, and filter bag rack.  
4. Inspect the filter bags for dust caking, dampness, or oil deposits.  
Any or all of these symptoms are indications of moisture or condensed oil in the  
compressed air supply.  
Conveying System Mechanical Components Chapter 5: Maintenance  
84 of 138  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
5. Check compressed air supply in-line filters and clean or replace as needed.  
If moisture is condensing inside the filter chamber, you may need to insulate the  
chamber and the piping leading to the filter. This action should keep the surface  
moisture above the dew point and prevent condensation on filter bags.  
6. Do not attempt to wash or reuse soiled ACA filter bags. If they are clogged, replace  
them with new filter bags. Contact the Parts Department for more information on  
replacement filter bags.  
7. Inspect the filter bags for wear. Thinning bags may not stop fine dust when flexed  
with compressed air, or dust can escape into the clean air tank section and  
contaminate conveying air. Replace with new filter bags as needed.  
Note: When re-installing ACA Series filter bags, make sure that the bag is turned  
inside out, with the glazed surface facing outward.  
8. Carefully slip the bag over the bag cage. Position the filter bag all the way onto the  
bag cage, and place a clamp around the bag near the top of the bag rack plate.  
Tighten the clamp.  
Note: Improperly installed clamps cause a poor dust seal.  
Dusting in the clean air exhaust is a normal condition after installing new  
filter bags, and should stop after the first several hours of operation.  
9. Replace the upper tank section, with the gasket properly seated between upper and  
lower sections. Make sure the filter bags are hanging straight down and that the bags  
do not touch each other or the inside walls of the filter chamber. This action prevents  
excessive bag wear when compressed air pulses enter the bags.  
10. Replace and tighten the stretch clamp.  
Maintaining SPDB Series Vacuum Power Unit Non-Reversing Valves  
Upper and lower non-reversing valves require periodic service to keep SPDB Series vacuum  
power units operating at peak efficiency. Contact the Parts Department for information on  
valve service kits and customer-recommended parts.

5-6 Corrective Maintenance  
Dealing with Shortened ACA Series Filter Bag Life  
If ACA filter bags wear our rapidly, refer to the following list to diagnose certain difficulties:  
Chemical Attack  
Filter bag material may degrade from certain chemicals in the dust of the air stream.  
Moisture  
Filter bag material may shrink or degrade from excessive moisture in the filter chamber.  
Abrasion  
If filter bags are improperly installed, bags can rub together or against filter chamber walls,  
resulting in excessive wear. Abrasion on the filter bags near the air inlet area indicates that a  
dust-impingement baffle may be required.  
High Temperature  
If operating temperatures are above the recommended limit for filter bag material, damage  
may result.  
Consult the Service Department for assistance if difficulties occur.

Chapter 6: Troubleshooting  
6-1 Introduction  
The utmost in safety precautions should be observed at all times when working on or around  
the machine and the electrical components. All normal trouble-shooting must be  
accomplished with the power off, line fuses removed, and with the machine tagged as out of  
service.  
The use of good quality test equipment cannot be over-emphasized when troubleshooting is  
indicated. Use a good ammeter that can measure at least twice the AC and DC current that  
can be encountered for the machine. Be sure that the voltmeter has at least minimum  
impedance of 5,000 OHMS-per-volt on AC and 20,000 OHMS-per-volt on DC scales.  
Popular combination meters, VOM and VTVM can be selected to provide the necessary  
functions.  
Before making haphazard substitutions and repairs when defective electrical components are  
malfunctioning, we recommend that you check the associated circuitry and assemblies for  
other defective devices. It is common to replace the obviously damaged component without  
actually locating the real cause of the trouble. Such hasty substitutions will only destroy the  
new component. Refer to wiring diagrams and schematics.  
Locating mechanical problems, should they occur, is relatively straightforward. When  
necessary, refer to the parts catalog section.  
Note: Refer to specific control panel operation and instruction manual for additional  
details and Troubleshooting information.
