ELECTRICAL WIRING ! WARNING High Voltage, disconnect power before installation. All wiring should be installed in accordance with National, State, and Local electrical codes. Fans used to ventilate livestock buildings or other rooms where continuous air movement is essential should be connected to individual electrical circuits, with a minimum of two circuits per room. For electrical connection requirements, refer to diagram on motor nameplate and to information enclosed with the Aerotech environmental control to be used. Single Phase Fans: motor overload protection should be provided for each fan. A Circuit Breaker Switch or slow blow motor type fuses must be used See Figure 13A. See Aerotech form QM1400 for proper size. Three Phase Fans: motor overload protection should be provided for each fan. A three pole motor starter or slow blow motor fuses must be used. See Figure 13B. If a frequency drive (inverter) is used, confirm that motors are rated for inverter duty at the voltage used. The installation of line reactors is recommended to reduce voltage spikes and harmonic distortion. Supplemental motor overload protection is also recommended. NOTE: A safety cut-off switch should be located adjacent to each fan. 120 or 240 VAC Power Supply for Fan L1 (H) L1 (H) T1 (H) T1 (H) L2 (N) L2 (N) T2 (N) T2 (N) G G 120 or 240 VAC Power Out to Fan Figure 13A Single Phase - Motor Overload Protection with Disconnect (SY2000 or Equivalent) Motor Starter Three Phase Power Supply for Fan L2 L3 T1 T1 L2 T2 T2 L3 T3 T3 L1 L1 Safety Cut-off Switch G Three Phase Power Out to Fan Motor G Figure 13B Three Phase - Motor Overload Protection with Disconnect NOTE: Information in parenthesis refers to 120 VAC control.

OPERATION ! 1) INITIAL START-UP: With electrical power off, verify that the fan propeller turns freely and that all fasteners are secure. Turn on electrical power and confirm that the fan operates smoothly. WARNING 2) ADJUSTMENTS: Set the fan control to the temperature shown on your Aerotech ventilations system drawing, or to a value which will provide the desired environmental conditions. Moving parts, disconnect power before servicing. Single Phase Fans: Single phase fans are designed for single speed operation only. Three Phase Fans: 1) The use of a quality frequency drive and the installation of line reactors is recommended to reduce voltage spikes and harmonic distortion. 2) Minimum operating frequency of 30 Hz. 3) Will require three pole contactors with overload protection (by others). MAINTENANCE ! WARNING ! WARNING The following inspection and cleaning procedures should be performed monthly: 1) INSPECT PROPELLER: Check that propeller is secure on motor shaft and that there are no signs of damage. The blades are of a self-cleaning design and should not require maintenance. High Voltage, disconnect power before servicing. ! WARNING Do not power wash electrical devices. ! WARNING 2) CLEAN regularly for best results: FAN MOTOR: Remove any dust accumulation from motor using a brush or cloth. (DO NOT use a pressure washer). A clean motor will run cooler and last longer. At the same time, verify that the motor is secure in its mount. SHUTTER: Carefully clean dust from shutter blades and frame so that shutter opens and closes freely. A brush or cloth should be used. GUARD: Clean any dust or feathers from fan guards using a brush. Dirty guards can reduce airflow. 3) CHECK FASTENERS: For safety, all fasteners should be inspected. Tighten any loose connections. Moving parts, disconnect power before servicing. Moving parts, disconnect power before servicing. 4) INSPECT FAN CONTROL: With power disconnected, inspect all electrical connec-tions. Wiring should be secure and in good condition. Remove any dust build-up from control case and sensor using a soft brush or cloth. NEVER CLEAN ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT WITH A PRESSURE WASHER!

MAINTENANCE ! WARNING High Voltage, disconnect power before servicing. ! WARNING Moving parts, disconnect power before servicing. ! 6) CHECK DRIVE ALIGNMENT: Check to make sure the belt is centered on the idler pulley, then use a straight edge to check the Idler Propeller Motor alignment of the drive pulleys. If an adjustment Pulley Pulley Pulley is needed, remove the belt, then loosen the set Belt screw in one pulley and move it. Remember to tighten the set screw after making an adjustment. Straight Edge Drive alignment is very important for long belt life and proper operation. 7) CHECKING PULLEYS: Roll the belt off and look at both pulleys. If the pulley has grooves in it or is no longer smooth, it needs replacement. A loose or slipping belt will reduce fan performance up to 60% and cause premature belt failure. Smooth Pulley Grooved Pulley WARNING Do not power wash electrical devices. ! 5) GREASE BEARINGS: Grease bearings every 4-6 months. Use no more than 2 shots when greasing fan. A premium non-water based grease is recommended: - Shell Alvania #2 - Mobil Mobilux #2 - Exxon Unirex N2 - Texaco Premium RB - Mobil 532 - Texaco Multifak #2 WARNING 8) BELT TENSIONING: Check condition of belt, if worn, replace belt. If belt is in good condition then make sure the tensioner is in the correct position. Looking from the back of the fan, the correct position of the tensioner is approximately the 7 o'clock position. See Figure 14A. To adjust the tensioner, loosen the M10 x 30mm bolt fastening the tensioner to the motor base and place a 27mm wrench onto the hex on the tensioner. Turn the wrench clockwise until the alignment mark is at mark 2 on the tensioner arm. See Figure 14B. Hold tensioner at this setting and tighten the M10 x 30mm bolt to 40 ft. lbs. of torque.

Realign motor in fan housing 4. Repair or replace control 5. Repair or replace motor 2. Repair or replace motor or shaft bearings 3. See operation, Step 2 for adjustments guidelines Winterizing Fan In most climates, it is probable that the ventilation system will never need to operate at a total capacity during the cold winter months. Consequently, it is advisable to "winterize" those fans which will not be used in cold weather to avoid unnecessary heat loss and condensation. To winterize, turn fan control "off". Install the insulated closure panel over the fan intake. If you don't have an insulated closure panel, a piece of rigid insulation material can be used. Remember the insulation panel must be removed before warmer weather returns. NOTE: At least one single speed fan should be left uncovered and with power available to provide air movement in the event of variable speed control difficulties.

Cool-Streamtek's Vortex Tube is an effec-tive, low-cost solution to a wide va-riety of industrial spot cooling and process cooling needs. How long has the Vortex Tube been around? The vortex tube was in-vented in 1933 by French physicist Georges J. Ranque. German physicist
Exair TM 708 slpm vortex tube was used by Skye to collect all of the experimental data. The geometrical details of this vortex tube are given in Table 1. The mentioned Skye's vortex tube utilizes six numbers of straight nozzles. Thus, this type of vortex tube has a vortex chamber with radius of 5.7 mm, and the nozzles are located tangentially .
