WARNING
Rotating Components!
During installation, testing, servicing and troubleshooting of this product it may be necessary to
measure the speed of rotating components. Have a qualified or licensed service individual who
has been properly trained in handling exposed rotating components, perform these tasks.
Failure to follow all safety precautions when exposed to rotating components could result in
death or serious injury.
WARNING
Live Electrical Components!
During installation, testing, servicing and troubleshooting of this product, it may be necessary
to work with live electrical components. Have a qualified licensed electrician or other individual
who has been properly trained in handling live electrical components perform these tasks.
Failure to follow all electrical safety precautions when exposed to live electrical components
could result in death or serious injury.
Before complete startup, bump-start the unit and confirm the fan wheel rotates properly, as
indicated by the rotation arrow located on the fan housing. After initial startup:
• Calculate the motor voltage imbalance, notifying the power company to correct unacceptable
imbalances.
• Periodically check the fan belt tension.
Calculate Motor Voltage Imbalance
After startup, measure the motor voltage and amperage on all phases to ensure proper operation.
The readings should fall within the range given on the motor nameplate. The maximum allowable
voltage imbalance is 2 percent.
Voltage imbalance is defined as 100 times the sum of the absolute deviation of the three voltages
from the average, divided by twice the average voltage. For example, if the three measured
voltages are 221, 230 and 227, the average voltage would be 226 volts. The percent of voltage
imbalance is then calculated:
Voltage imbalance =
where:
A = (226-221) + (230-226) + (227-226)
Voltage imbalance = 2.2% (not acceptable)
In the example, 2.2 percent imbalance is not acceptable and the power company should be notified
to correct it.
