1Introduction

This manual contains directions and information concerning the
installation, startup,shutdown and service of the Swaco 518
Centrifuge. Appropriate sections of thismanual must be read and
understood before attempting to install, operate or servicethis
unit. Failure to do so may cause injury to personnel, damage to the
equipment orreduced performance.

The Swaco 518 Centrifuge is known as a decanting type separator.
A decanter is acentrifugal separator having a horizontal axis of
rotation. A process liquid or slurry issupplied to the rotating
bowl where the solids are separated from the liquid phase.The
solids are forced to the inner wall of the bowl while the liquid
forms a ring insidethe solids. A screw type conveyor transports the
solids toward the tapered end of aconical bowl. The liquid flows in
a spiral path, established by the conveyor flights, tothe discharge
ports at the large end of the bowl.

The primary application for the 518 Centrifuge is to run in
series with the 414Centrifuge for secondary separation of low
gravity solids an recovery of theexpensive liquid phase.
2General Safety Precautions

The Swaco 518 Centrifuge is engineered and manufactured to
perform safely underconditions described in this manual. This large
high speed rotating machine requirescare and understanding for
maximum safety. Unsafe practices in maintenance andoperation will
cause conditions which are hazardous to both maintenance
andoperation and cause conditions which are hazardous to both
personnel and property.The following general precautions should be
strictly followed to avoid damage toproperty and/or death to
personnel.

1. Do not allow personnel to maintain, install, or operate the
518 Centrifuge untilthey have read this manual and understood
safety requirements.

2. Do not operate the centrifuge until it is properly mounted.3.
Do not operate the centrifuge if the machine is not completely and
correctly

assembled.4. Do not inactivate the centrifuge for any extended
period of time without

inactivating the electrical circuit to the motors.5. Be sure
wiring is connected according to wiring plate on motors.6. Do not
operate the machine unless the cover is closed and clamps and

clamping devices are tightened.7. Do not use inlet connections
as supports for feed hoses.8. Do not operate the centrifuge if
unusual noise or vibration exists.9. Do not attempt to repair the
centrifuge until the switch box is locked in OFF

position or has had the breakers locked OPEN.10. Do not attempt
to assemble or disassemble the centrifuge if the bowl is

rotating.11. Do not operate the 518 Centrifuge until startup and
shutdown procedures are

understood.12. Do not attempt to manually shutoff the back drive
motor. It will automatically

shutoff approximately 10 minutes after the bowl drive motor stop
button hasbeen released.
3Section 1 Unit Description

1.1 Centrifuge Components

1.1.1 The centrifuge bowl is the outer member of the rotating
assembly and iscomposed of one cylindrical section and a conical
section. The end piece onthe cylindrical end has ports through
which the liquid flows out. Semi-drysolids are discharge through
ports in the small end of the conical section. Thehollow shaft at
each end of the bowl is suspended in a pillow block bearing toallow
rotation of the bowl. (See Figure 1)

Figure 1 (Bowl)

1.1.2 The conveyor is suspended inside the bowl on bearings and
rotates in thesame direction as the bowl, only slightly slower. The
separated solids areforced to the inside wall of the bowl by
centrifugal force and conveyed to thesolids discharge ports in the
bowl. The pitch (P) of the conveyor flights is thedistance in
millimeters between the flights measured parallel to the axis of
theconveyor.

Figure 2 (Conveyor)
41.1.3 The planetary gear box, is fitted on the hollow shaft at
the cylindrical end ofthe bowl. It drives the conveyor by means of
a shaft going through the hollowshaft of the bowl. On the end of
the gear box opposite the bowl, is a smallshaft. This is the small
sunwheel shaft of the planetary gear box. The speedand direction of
the small sunwheel determines the differential speed, or
therelative speed of the bowl and the conveyor.

1.1.4 The frame is the tubular steel member on which the bowl
pillow blockbearings, feed tube bracket and the vessel are mounted.
See Figure 4

Figure 4 (Frame)
51.1.5 The vessel is a stainless steel case mounted on the frame
that completelyencloses the bowl. It is divided into compartments
that divert the liquid andsolids discharge to their respective
outlets. The semi-circular cover is hingedto allow easy access to
the bowl for inspection and maintenance.

Figure 5 (Vessel)

1.1.6 A feed tube is shown in Figure 6. Mud is introduced into
the centrifugethrough the feed tube Item 185, Diagram 1. This is a
stainless steel tubeapproximately 2″ O.D. and 36″ Lg. It extends
into the bowl and conveyorthrough the hollow shaft on the conical
end of the bowl. Mud is pumped intothe tube by the feed pump. The
mud leaves the feed tube and enters the bowlthrough a slot in the
conveyor (See Figure 2 — Conveyor). This slot in theconveyor
extends approximately the length of the conical section.

Figure 6 (Feed Tube)
61.1.7 The belt guards on the 518 Centrifuge are made so that
access to belts andG.S. Torque limiting coupling is through the
split door on the side. The upperhalf of the door folds down for
belt inspection and tightening and resetting theG.S. coupling. The
door may be completely removed for other repairs.

81.3 The centrifuge rotating assembly consists of the bowl, the
conveyor and the planetarygearbox. All these items are described in
Paragraph 1.1.1, 1.1.2 and 1.1.3.

1.4 The following safety components are incorporated in the
Swaco 518 Centrifuge

1.4.1 Vibration Detection Switch

This switch, Item 223, Diagram 1, is mounted on the centrifuge
frame. Itsfunction is to automatically shut off power to the bowl
drive motor and feedpump when controlled by Centrifuge Control
System, should excessivevibration of the unit develop, regardless
of cause.

1.4.2 Torque Limiter

The torque limiter is a combination of mechanical and electrical
controls. Thesmall sunwheel shaft has a spring loaded coupling
(G.S. Coupling — SeeFigure 12) which will limit the torque that can
be applied to the shaft. If thislimit is exceeded the coupling will
disengage and will, by axial movement ofthe coupling, trip a limit
switch, Item 224, Diagram 1. This will disconnectpower from the
bowl drive motor and the feed pump when controlled byCentrifuge
Control System.

1.4.3 The mass of the rotating assembly is very high. To bring
this assembly up tooperational speed takes from 90 to 100 seconds.
A fluid coupling is installedbetween the drive motor and the
rotating assembly to allow the motor to attainfull operating speed
almost immediately and allow the bowl to reachoperational speed
gradually.

Without the fluid coupling, the motor current on startup would
be excessivelyhigh and could result in damage such as overheating
of connectors and cableor motor overload protectors or could
overload the power plant if it wasoperating near full load.

Should a high load on the rotating assembly cause excessive slip
in the fluidcoupling, the heat so generated will melt a fusible
plug in the coupling causingthe oil to be dumped. This will unload
the motor before any damage is done.
91.4.4 Overspeed of back drive motor

The small sunwheel is driven by a back drive motor (Paragraph
1.1.3).Overspeed of the back drive motor could occur if the back
drive motor isturned off before or immediately after the main drive
motor. This wouldallow the conveyor to assume the bowl speed. The
rotation would betransferred through the gearbox to the small
sunwheel shaft and through thebelts to the back drive motor to
rotate at higher than designed motor speedsand could cause the
motor armature to fly apart resulting in property damageand/or
personal injury or death.

Back drive over speed is prevented by an electrical interlock.
This interlockconsists of a relay (Item 250, Diagram 12) which
allows automatic shut off ofthe back drive motor approximately 10
minutes after the main drive motor isshut off. The time needed
before back drive shut off is necessary since lowfriction in the
pillow block bearing and the mass of the rotating assemblyallow ten
(10) to twenty (20) minutes of rotation after main drive motor
shutoff.

1.5 Bowl and Conveyor Speed

The 518 Centrifuge is operated between 1900 and 3200 rpm’s
depending on theapplication. The conveyor rotates at approximately
35 to 55 rpm’s less than the bowlin the same direction. The 518
Centrifuge operate at all times with the bowl andconveyor turning
in the same direction and the conveyor turning slower than thebowl.
The main drive motor should be wired so that the bowl always turns
clockwisewhen viewed from the feed tube end.

The small sunwheel in the gearbox is used to vary the
differential speed between thebowl and conveyor. If the sunwheel is
«fixed», that is, not rotated by the back drivemotor, the
differential will equal the bowl RPM divided by the gearbox ratio
(57:1).If it turns in the same direction as the bowl, the
differential will be less than when it isfixed. If it turns in the
opposite direction as the bowl, the differential will be
greaterthan when it’s fixed. (See Diagram 10)

1.6 Step sheaves having two pitch diameter sizes each on the
main drive motor and bowlsheaves permit operation of the 518
Centrifuge at 1900 and 2500 and 3200 rpm’s.The bowl speed is
determined by the combination of sheave sizes selected on thebowl
and motor. The motor mount is made to allow the motor and sheave to
move afull sheave width for proper alignment to obtain the full
range of bowl speeds.
10

Caution:

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO OPERATE 518 CENTRIFUGE AT BOWL SPEEDS
ABOVE3200 RPM’S. SPEEDS ABOVE 3200 RPM’S WILL EXCEED THE DESIGN
SAFETYLIMITS. THIS COULD CAUSE THE MACHINE TO DESTROY ITSELF
POSSIBLYCAUSING INJURY OR DEATH.

Section 2 Installation

2.1 Transportation and Handling

2.1.1 The pillow block bearings are subject to damage from shock
andvibration during transportation and handling. To prevent this,
thepillow block bearing should be preloaded using wedge blocks
shownin Figure 8

Figure 8 (Wooden Wedge Blocks)
12

2.1.2 Care should be used in loading and unloading this unit to
prevent any unnecessary shock to the components.

2.1.3 Caution: When lifting, always use a four point lift to
protect unit fromdamage and/or turning upside down during lift.

2.2 Centrifuge Mounting

The 518 Centrifuge must be mounted above the ground to
facilitate solids removal.For recovery of weight material the
solids discharge outlet should be located over awell stirred area
of the mixing pit. A slide attached from the solids outlet may
benecessary to route solids to the mixing pit. The slide should be
set at a steep angle toprevent a solids buildup.

The Centrifuge unit must be set level and on adequate supports.
It may be necessaryto attach it to the support by tack welding.

2.3 Electrical Installation

2.3.1 The electrical installation should be made by a qualified
electrician. Inputpower fusing must be current limiting type. See
Wiring Schematic, Diagram12 for sizing.

2.3.2 Feed Pump — Control circuit power is taken from terminals
TB1 and TB2 inthe main control box (Item 216, Diagram 11) for the
feed pump starter. Thisrequires running a 14 gauge 2 conductor
approved wire from the main controlbox to the feed pump starter.
For typical hookup see Diagram 15. Pumpstarter holding coil must be
120 volts. Power for pump may come from anysource of sufficient
amperage and proper voltage. If feed pump auto shutdown feature is
not desired, starter may be used as wired and power cablehooked to
any source of proper voltage and sufficient amperage.

2.4 Feed Pump

2.4.1 Any pump capable of furnishing the feed rate desired at
sufficient pressure toovercome line loss may be used to feed the
518 Centrifuge.

2.4.2 A 5 Hp variable speed progressive cavity pump which
furnishes 22 gallonsper 100 revolutions is available from Swaco and
is ideal for feed between 40and 80 gpm’s. (Swaco Type II Pumping
Unit)
13

2.4.3 A centrifugal pump assembly capable of furnishing up to
250 gpm at 45 feetof head is adequate for high volume operation.
This type of pump is alsoavailable from Swaco. (Swaco Type III Pump
Unit)

2.2.4 Suction and discharge lines on the feed pump should be
sized to minimizehead loss due to line friction.

2.4.5 A water line should be connected between the pump and the
feed tube forwashing the bowl and conveyor prior to shutdown.

2.5 Liquid Feed and Discharge

2.5.1 The line feeding mud to the centrifuge should terminate
with a male 2″ NPTfitting to mate with the 2″ elbow on the feed
tube. This line should besupported so it’s weight will not be on
the feed tube.

2.5.2 The liquid outlet is a 8″ Victaulic nipple. See Figure 5.
The line connectingto this nipple can be steel hard piping,
flexible hose or PVC pipe. It should besized to accommodate the
liquid discharge rate. Because the liquid dischargeis gravity flow,
consideration should be given to the fall and length of this lineto
avoid plugging from solids settling.

2.6 Solids Discharge

2.6.1 The outlet for solids discharge is 11-1/4″ (286 mm) x
18-1/2″ (470 mm) witha 1-1/4″ (32 mm) wide flange. See Figure 5

2.6.2 If the centrifuge cannot be located over the proper area a
slide may beattached to the solids outlet to route solids to the
mixing pit. Since thesesolids will be sticky, the slide must be set
at a steep angle to prevent a solidsbuildup.

2.7 Startup and Shutdown

2.7.1 Startup

Start back drive motorStart main drive motor about 10 seconds
after back drive motor. Do not startmotors simultaneously. The
sudden power drain may overload the powersource.

Allow at least two (2) minutes for the centrifuge to obtain
operating speed.Bring mud feed rate up slowly to desired rate.
14

2.7.2 Before shutdown of the 518 Centrifuge, it is necessary to
flush the bowl withwater.

1. Shut off the feed pump.2. Close the mud suction valve.3.
After all conveyable solids have cleared the bowl, open the water
line

which tees into the pump discharge line.4. Flush the centrifuge
until clean water is discharged. Close the water

valve.5. Stop the main drive motor. When the main drive motor is
shut off, and

electrical interlock activates and will automatically shut the
back drivemotor off after approximately 10 minutes.

6. If the machine is likely to be subjected to freezing
temperatures, thecover should be opened and bowl drained by
removing two drain plugson the liquid discharge end (Item 25,
Diagram 2). Drain any hoses andpumps that may have liquid trapped
in them.

Section 3 Inspection and Maintenance

3.1 Shop Inspection

3.1.1 With the cover closed and bolted down, rotate the bowl by
hand andlisten for any unusual noise or scrapping. The bowl should
turn freelywithout drag. Any noises should be investigated. Check
the G.S.coupling to be sure it is engaged. See Section 3.6

3.1.2 With cover open, rotate bowl assembly by hand and listen
for anynoise coming from within the bowl or the bearings. Any
noisybearings should be inspected and/or replaced. See Section
5.2

3.1.3 Check gearbox oil level. Remove magnetic plugs and inspect
formetallic wear particles — See Figure 10. A large accumulation
ofmetallic wear particles should be investigated and the
causedetermined. Refer to Section 3.2.2, Lubrication of
Gearbox.

3.1.4 Inside J-Boxes, Diagram 12:Check heater packs, Item 249,
237 for proper ratings.Check fuses Item 245,246,244 to see if they
are good, properly sizedand installed properly.

Check limit switch, Item 224, Diagram 1, which is under back
drive
15

guard to see if it is closed when set against G.S. coupling,
Figure 12, and openwhen coupling is disengaged, Figure 12.

3.2 Lubrication

3.2.1 Lubrication of Bearings

The pillow block and conveyor bearings should be lubricated
every 100 hoursof operation. See Figure 9 for location of grease
fittings. Grease vent holeslocated behind pillow block housing and
in gearbox cover nearest the bowl,are shown in Figure 9. Proper
greasing is obtained when excess grease comesout the vent
holes.

The following is a partial list of suitable lithium soap,
vibration resistantgreases which may be used for bearing
lubrication.

NOTE: Contact your nearest Swaco representative or service
center forapproval of lithium base lubricants not shown on the
above list.

DO NOT USE CALCIUM BASE GREASECalcium base grease is not
compatible with recommended greases and willcause bearing failure.
Bearing failure could damage bearing housings andother bearing
parts.

17

3.2.2 Lubrication of Gearbox

The 350 KPM gearbox contains two treaded plugs. The two plugs
aremagnetic and are removed for oil draining and filling. The
magnetic plugsattract metallic particles, in the lubricating
oil.

The oil level in the gearbox should be checked before centrifuge
operation.Remove inspection plate on side of gearbox (See Figure
10b). Oil level ischecked with the plugs are 64 of vertical (See
Figure 10a).

Angle is correct when plug is centered on a line between the two
inspectionpalte hold down screw holes. Normal oil level is
indicated by oil at bottomedge of hole. After initial centrifuge
operation the oil level should be checkedweekly or whenever
bearings are greased. The magnetic drain plugs shouldalso be
checked and metallic particles removed.
18

3.2.3 Lubrication of gearbox on units with serial numbers
smaller than 1000

Remove gearbox guard exposing entire gearbox. The gearbox
contains two threadedplugs. The two plugs are magnetic and are
removed for oil draining and filling. Themagnetic plugs attract
metallic particles, in the lubricating oil.

The oil level in the gearbox should be checked before centrifuge
operation. Oil levelis checked when plugs are 54 off vertical (See
Figure A). Normal oil level is at thehighest plug. After initial
centrifuge operation the oil level should be checked weeklyor
whenever bearings are greased. The magnetic drain plugs should also
be checkedand metallic particles removed.
19

The gearbox oil should be changed after the first 150 hours of
operation of a newgearbox and at least once a month of normal
running. A large accumulation ofmetallic particles on the magnetic
plugs indicates the gearbox oil needs changing.Changing gearbox oil
involves flushing of the gearbox with diesel oil or kerosene.The
gear box should be filled with diesel or kerosene and rotated a
number ofrevolutions by hand with all plugs screwed in. This
flushing should be repeated twoto three times or until clean. The
gearbox should be filled with on of the gear oilslisted below.
Gearbox capacity is approximately one-half (1/2) gallon or two
(2)liters. Continued accumulation of metallic wear particles in the
magnetic plugsindicates abnormal gear wear.

3.4 Cleaning

Cleaning and inspection should be done every 100 hours when
bearings arelubricated. Cleaning may be needed more often when
conditions are severe.

3.4.1 With the cover open, hose down the inside of the vessel
and the outside of thebowl. Pay particular attention to removing
any solids buildup around thesolids discharge bushings (See Item
86, Diagram 2). Also, remove solidsbuildup inside the cover.

3.4.2 Inspect the solids discharge bushings for wear. Worn
bushings should bereplaced before any wear has damaged the bowl.
See Figure 29 and 30

3.4.3 Inspect wear shield in cover for excessive wear and
replace if necessary.

3.4.4 Inspect magnetic plugs in gearbox for metallic particles
and check oil level.See Section 3.2.2

3.5 Belt Tensioning

3.5.1 Belt tension should be checked routinely when lubricating
bearings.

3.5.2 The following procedure for belt tensioning should be used
starting when anew 518 Centrifuge is put into service or anytime
belts are replaced.

It is important that the belts are correctly tensioned. A belt
that slips on itspulley is exposed to abnormal wear. If on the
other hand the belts are tootight, this will cause wear on the
bearings.

Proceed as follows to get the correct tension:

1. Collect the belt slack on the upper side. Adjust the pulley
centerdistance by moving the motor until the belts have a light
tension.Rotate the drive parts a few turns by hand.

2. Adjust the center distance so that all belts are lying well.
Start themotor and run for approximately 10 minutes so that the
belts can adaptthemselves to the grooves.

3. Stop the motor and adjust the center distance until all belts
are lyingevenly and are properly tightened. (A stretch of 1/2 — 1%
of the beltlength will not damage the belts)

4. New belts should be retensioned every two hours during the
first dayof running. After this, further tightening may be
unnecessary, as thelength of the belts remains practically
constant. When changing belts,
21

never force them over the side of the pulley. Always loosen the
motorto install them. Over tensioning of belts may cause premature
failure.

5. When one or more of the belts is worn out, put on a COMPLETE
setof new belts.

6. A good way to check belt tension is to strike the belts with
a clenchfist. A slack belt will feel dead under this test, whereas
a properlytensioned belt will vibrate and feel alive. Check the
belt tension fromtime to time. See Figure 11

Warning: Never run unit with belt guard removed and never check
belt tension whileunit is running. Such unsafe practices can result
in injury or death.

The working life and proper functioning of the belts depend to a
high degree on howthey are cared for. Oil and grease will soon ruin
them. Oily or greasy belts can becleaned with a good solvent.

3.6 G.S. Coupling

Solids overloading can cause excessive torque between the bowl
and conveyor. Thistorque could damage the gearbox if the overload
became too severe.
22

The 518 Centrifuge utilizes a spring loaded coupling to limit
this torque. The torqueis exerted on this coupling which is mounted
next to the gearbox sheave. Should thetorque exceed a preset limit,
(50-60 ft/lb. (74.4-89.3 km)) the coupling will disengageand trip a
limit switch (See Item 224, Diagram 1). This will shut off both the
feedpump and main drive motor. The bowl should then be flushed with
water to removeany excess solids left in the bowl. The procedure
for resetting the G.S. coupling isdiscussed in the next paragraph.
Continued coupling disengagements will requireremoval of bowl and
conveyor for cleaning.

Figure 12a illustrates the G.S. coupling in the engaged
position. When excessivetorque is exerted on the gearbox, the G.S.
coupling disengages from the driver (Figure12b). The three balls of
the coupling are forced out of the depressions in the driver
anslide down the slopes of the driver. This causes the coupling and
the driver to rotate60 in relation to each other. At the same time,
the coupling moves 1/4″ toward thedriver. This movement trips the
limit switch which removes power from the feedpump (when feed pump
interlock is used) and the main drive motor. This movementalso
allows the cams on the V-belt pulley to be released from the slots
in the couplingas shown in Figure 12b. The bowl and conveyor now
rotate at the same speed.
23

3.6.1 Resetting the G.S. Coupling (Refer to Figures 12c and
12d)

1. Insert a steel bar into a hole in the coupling and a bar in a
slotin the driver.

2. Rotate the bars in opposite directions until the steel balls
returnto original position. Be sure slots in the coupling line up
withthe cams on the V-belt sheave (See Figure 12c and 12d). Ifnot,
the coupling will not reset.

3. Remove bars and reset limit switch. The conveyor and bowlare
now again coupled together.

3.6.2 Testing G.S. Coupling for proper release force (Refer to
Figure 13)

1. Place G.S. Coupling torque measuring adapter over
couplingassembly. Insert pin in adapter hole through to the hole in
thecoupling.

2. Place torque wrench socket fitting into socket on adapter.3.
With G.S. Coupling engaged as in Section 3.6.1 turn clockwise

and not torque reading at disengagement. Repeat four (4)times.
Note smallest reading. This reading should be between50 and 60
ft.lbs (67.1-81.3 Nm).

4. Repeat step 3 in the counterclockwise direction.
Readingsshould be the same.
24

3.6.3 Adjusting G.S. Coupling release force

Some adjustment is possible by adding or removing spacer
washers(Item 98, Diagram 5). Adding washers increases disengagement
forceand removing decreases force. If proper functioning and
forcereadings cannot be obtained by washer adjustment, replace
springwasher group, eleven (11) pieces, (Item 97, Diagram 5).
25

3.7 Vibration detection switch

The high speed rotating assembly of the 518 Centrifuge requires
near perfect balancefor minimum vibration. Should an imbalance
cause excessive vibration, the maindrive motor and fee pump will be
shut off by a vibration detection switch, See (Item223, Diagram 1).
Excessive vibration is usually caused by a solids buildup within
thebowl or uneven bowl and /or conveyor wear. The vibration
detection switch ismounted on the centrifuge frame. Refer to
Appendix for manufacturers informationon the vibration switch.

3.8 Fluid Coupling

Bring the large rotating assembly to operating speed would
normally take the maindrive motor approximately 100 seconds. This
would cause the motor to drawexcessive current, overheat
conductors, trip thermal protectors or overload the powerplant.
These problems are eliminated by a fluid coupling installed on the
main drivemotor shaft. The fluid coupling allows the motor to
attain speed almost immediatelywhile the bowl assembly is still
accelerating. If excessive drag on the bowl causesgreater than
normal slip, the heat generated will cause a fusible plug in the
couplingto melt. This will dump the hydraulic fluid in the coupling
and unload the motorbefore any damage can be done. See Appendix for
manufacturers information on thefluid coupling.

3.9 Electrical System

3.9.1 The electrical system on the 414 Centrifuge conforms to
the National ElectricCode requirements for Class 1, Division 2,
Group D.

3.9.2 The electrical system is shown in Diagram 11, Component
Placement andwiring Diagram 12 and Schematic in Diagram 14, Cabling
is shown inDiagram 13. These diagrams may be used to trace down
individualcomponents or wiring circuits. The use of these diagrams
will greatlysimplify trouble shooting electrical problems.

5.3.2 Solids Discharge Bushings

The discharge bushings should be replaced before wear is allowed
on the bowl. Toremove discharge bushings use a soft drift and a
hammer to tap out as shown inFigure 29.

Replace bushings in pairs only. Replace the defective bushings
and the one oppositeit.

To install discharge bushings, clean outer surface of new
bushings and inner surfaceseats of the bowl. Apply a thin layer of
loctite 270 to the surface of the dischargebushings. Insert
bushings into the seat and turn until the loctite is
uniformlydistributed. Press bushing tightly into place. Handling
strength is obtained after 20minutes and maximum strength after 3
hours. Refer to Figure 30 for installation.

5.4 Conveyor

5.4.1 Shimming

When installing a new conveyor in a bowl it is necessary to
obtain the correctclearance between the edge of the conveyor
flights and the bowl, in the conical end.It is also necessary to
obtain the correct axial clearance between the bowl and
theconveyor. This is done by the use of shims or adjusting rings
inside the bearingcavity in each end of the conveyor. When bearings
and/or seals are changed in aconveyor, the existing shims should be
reused. If these shims have been damaged inany way, the same size
and number of new shims should be used. See Diagram 9
fordetermining the shims required.

5.4.2 Installation

1. Bolt the small end piece, Item 67, Figure 22 to the bowl.2.
Insert the conveyor into the bowl, taking care as the protector

Gyrol Fluid Coupling

General Information

The Fluid drive model NGS Fluid Coupling is designed to be
installed as a completeunit on a standard NEMA-B motor shaft with a
Worthington Type QD Sheave,furnished by the customer, mounted on
the fluid coupling. The input shaft of thefluid coupling is
finished bored and keywayed to fit the motor shaft and the
stockbores are listed in the table.

Oil is not supplied with the coupling. The oil capacity
indicated is the nominalamount required to fill the unit. Reference
should be made to 3.3 Maintenance ofFluid Couplings in the manual
for the correct oil fill angle and oil type for theCentrifuge.

Installation Instructions

Note:Ensure that all parts are clean and serviceable. Lubricated
all screws, matingsurfaces, shafts and shaft hub tapers with oil
free from Molybdenum Disulfide.

1. Ensure the motor shaft dimensions are correct to NEMA-B
Standard.2. Unscrew the socket set screws and remove the collar
from the input shaft.3. Locate the selected Type QD sheave on the
tapered hub of the Fluid drive

fluid coupling. Fit and evenly tighten the three hex head set
screws and springwashers.

4 Refit the collar on the input shaft and fit the three socket
set screws. Ensurethat the long screw is located in the input
shaft.
79
80

5. Fit the stepped key supplied into the motor shaft and mount
the fluid couplingon the motor shaft, ensuring that the key and
shaft key are correctly aligned.

6. Move the coupling along the motor shaft as far as it will go.
First tighten thelone set screw opposite the key on to the motor
shaft, then tighten the twoshort set screws alternately to close
input shaft evenly on to the motor shaft.

General Dismantling/Assembly Notes

1. Dismantle and assemble the Fluid Drive Coupling in a clean,
dry area. Uselint-free rags for cleaning.

2. Before assembly, ensure that all parts are clean and
serviceable. Lubricate allmating surfaces, screws, shafts and shaft
hub tapers with oil free fromMolybdenum Disulfide.

3. If the fluid coupling is installed, ensure that the motor is
correctlydisconnected from the power source before removing the
coupling fordismantling.

4. Loosen the three set screws in collar and withdraw fluid
coupling from motorshaft.

5. Use a suitable container when draining oil from the
coupling.6. For those units not using lockwashers, apply Loctite
242 or equivalent

anerobic locking adhesive to the bolt threads or the tappered
hole aftercleaning with industrial solvent. Tighten all bolts to
the torque valves given inthe installation instructions or torque
table.

7. Always fit new gaskets and oil seals when reassembling the
unit.
81

Unit Dismantling Instructions

1. Remove the filter plugs. Drain the oil from the coupling.2.
Fully unscrew the three socket set screws and remove the collar
from the input

shaft.3. Unscrew the three hex head set screws and spring
washers and remove the

pulley sheave from the hub.4. Unscrew and remove the set screws
and spring washers from the hub flange.

Remove the hub from the coupling, taking care to avoid damage to
the needleroller bearings and seal. Discard the gasket.

5.. Remove the socket head cap screws and spring washers, and
remove the endcover. Discard the gasket.

6. Remove the input shaft. Place a wrench or ring spanner over
the shaft washer,»hold» the shaft and unscrew the shaft screw.
Remove the shaft washerassembly. Fill the hole in the shaft with
good quality grease. Refit the shaftassembly, ensuring that the
pins fit in the matching holes in the shaft. Applyteflon sealer on
threads of the shaft screw and screw it back into the shaft.Place
the wrench or ring spanner over the shaft washer and «hold» the
shaft,then tighten the shaft screw so that the hydraulic pressure
releases the shafttaper. Remove the shaft screw and washer. Gently
tap the end of the shaftthought the ball bearing and remove the
shaft.

7. Inspect and replace the ball bearing as necessary, using an
extractor towithdraw bearing from casing. A new sealing gasket must
be fitted behind theweir ring before re-assembly. The end cover
should compress the sealinggasket by a nominal 0.015 inches on
final assembly to seal off the weir ring.

8. Extract circle clip from hub and remove the needle roller
bearing outer racecomplete for inspection. Inspect the needle
roller bearing inner race on theinput shaft and renew the complete
bearing as necessary.

Unit Assembly Instructions

1. Insert a new oil seal into hub. Lightly coat seal lip with
oil to ease assemblyover input shaft. Press the needle roller
bearing into the housing, ensuringthat it is square to the bore.
Refit circle clip.

2. Ensure that the inner race of the needle roller bearing is
correctly seatedagainst the shoulder of the input shaft. Feed the
shaft into the coupling untilthe shaft end just enters the ball
bearing. Do not overpress.

3. Fit the shaft washer, taking care to locate the roll pins in
the matching holes inthe shaft end. Apply loctite 242 to the
threads and fit the shaft screw andtighten until the shaft taper
engages in the taper of the runner hub. Place awrench or ring
spanner over the shaft washer, «hold» the shaft and tighten
theshaft screw to the torque specified in table. Lightly coat oil
seal journal ofshaft with the oil to ease oil seal assembly.
82

4. Fit new gasket to the end cover and assemble the cover into
casing spigot. Fitand evenly tighten the socket head cap screws and
spring washers.

5. Fit a new gasket to the hub and feed the hub over the input
shaft taking care toavoid damage to the oil seal and needle roller
bearings. To prevent damage tothe seal lip, cover input shaft
keyway before assembly with masking tapeextending beyond the shaft
end and fold the free end back onto itself toprovide a «grip». Keep
the tape lightly tensioned as the oil seal is fed alongthe shaft
until it is located on the seal journal and the hub is correctly
locatedin the casing spigot, then carefully pull the tape from the
hub/input shaftassembly. Fit and evenly tighten the set screws and
spring washers.

6. Mount the selected type QD sheave on the hub and secure with
the three hex.Head set screws and spring washers.

7. Assemble the collar on to the input shaft, ensure that the
long socket set screwis located in the hole in the shaft with the
two short screws each side of thekeyway.

Filling Instructions

Fluid drive couplings are shipped without oil and must be filled
after assembly andbefore operation as follows:

1. Remove one filter plug.2. Turn the coupling by hand to bring
the plug hole to the 12 o’clock position,

then turn the coupling back to bring the plug hole to the
recommended fillangle from T.D.C (See Section 3.3 Maintenance of

1. Checking tightness of bolts after the fluid coupling has been
in service for afew weeks, check that the screws in the collar,
pulley sheave, hub and bearinghousing are tight. If necessary,
tighten the cap screws to the specified torquevalves.

2. Checking filling at intervals of about 12 months, check the
level of oil in thefluid coupling and, if necessary add oil to make
up the level.

Add only the same grade oil as that used for the initial filling
of the couplings.

APPENDIX B

Vibraswitch Sensitivity Adjustments; The model 365 VIBRASWITCH
is adjusted by asimple three-step procedure as describe below. In
making the adjustment, cover bolts shouldbe tight:

1. With the equipment not running, back off the adjusting screw
counter-clockwise(CCW) to the stop and press reset button. Then
turn screw slowly clockwise untilactuation occurs. Actuation can be
heard as an audible «click». In very noisysurroundings, it may be
necessary to use a portable ohmmeter or wire the Vibaswitchto the
control circuit to tell when actuation occurs. This is the zero
vibration point, oractuating point with the machine not running.
(The location of this point depends onthe mounting position. It
will be zero for horizontal mounting. In other positions,loosen set
screws on pointer and set pointer at zero and lock set screws at
thisactuating point with no vibration, or use arbitrary reference
point determined above.)

2. With machine running, back off adjusting screw one turn CCW
and reset. If it willnot reset, back screw off two turns CCW, etc.
Again turn screw slowly clockwiseuntil actuation occurs. The
difference between the two actuating points is the normalvibration
level in divisions. One dial division is 0.1 G’s in the standard
model or 0.15G’s in the «LS» or special models.

3. Back off screw CCW from the last position in (2) to the
desired warning, or shutdownlevel. The exact amount must be
determined from experience. However, if greaterthan 100% safety
factor is required to prevent Vibraswitch actuation from
roughstartup or transient vibrations a Robertshaw time delay
control unit should be used toobtain a reasonable amount of
equipment protections. Reset the Vibraswitch andconnect into the
control circuit.

A typical setting is sketched below:
86

In the above example the normal running vibration is 4
divisions. This would be 0.4 G’s inthe «LS» (Low Sensitivity) or
special units. Here a 50% safety factor or two dial divisionshave
been added for the shutdown or alarm point.

APPENDIX C

The scrapping edge of the conveyor is subjected to wear when the
conveyor transports thesolids towards the narrow drum end. The wear
rate depends on the size and type of thesolids. The wear will
reduce the transporting capacity and thus the separating results. A
faradvanced wear i.e. radially .250 mm (6.4 mm) or more will also
cause high repair costs. It isnecessary, therefore, to check the
wear regular and observe how rapidly it progresses.

Normally the heaviest wear of the scraping edge occurs in the
zone where the conical andcylindrical parts of the drum meet. It is
possible to measure the wear in this zone withoutdismantling the
drum. In the flange of the conical part of the jacket there is a
hole (pluggedwith a screw) through which the measuring can be done
by means of a slide calipers. Seebelow.

The measurements should be recorded in a diagram, a number which
is enclosed with thisdescription. Effect a first measuring
(distance D — see below) before running a new machineor a new
conveyor the first time. Insert the numerical value in the square
above the diagram.Then measure the wear (i.e. the actual D — value
reduced by the first measured D — value)every 100th hour of
operation. Plot the value in Diagram 1.

As a rule the wear rate can be established after 3-4 times. If
the wear is heavy, i.e. .039 in (1mm) or more after 400 hours of
operation, continue the measurings every 100th hours ofoperation
and plot the values in Diagram 1. Otherwise extend the intervals to
500-1000hours of operation and use Diagram 2.

Whenever a new or rebuilt conveyor is installed the above
procedure should be followed.(Extra diagrams are included and
machine serial numbers should be marked on each diagram.
89

Measure distance D by means of a slide calipers.

1. After first measuring of a new machine or a new conveyor,
insert thenumerical value in the square above the diagrams.

2. After subsequent measurings. Calculate the wear and plot it
in one of thediagrams.

Note: The slide calipers must always face in the same direction
when measuring.

Lubricate the threads of the screw with castor oil or ball
bearing grease. Tighten the screw.Tighten torque: 22 Nm (2.2
kpm).
