Service Instructions Syntron Vibrator Model: V-9-D Syntron Material Handling reserves the right to make changes at any time, without any liability or other obligation on its part, in materials, equipment, specifications and models, and also to discontinue the manufacture and sale of models, and the parts and components thereof. For further detailed information contact, Syntron Material Handling LLC, Saltillo, MS 38866 (662) -869-5711 Safety Instructions: Product safety labels must remain highly visible on the equipment. Establish a regular schedule to check visibility. Should safety labels require replacement contact Syntron Material Handling LLC for an additional supply free of charge. INTRODUCTION The Syntron Electromechanical Vibrator, Model V-9-D produces a pattern of vibrations which penetrate a material mass, keeping the particles agitated and in a free flowing condition. The vibrator is operated from an A-C power supply using a standard controller. A controller, required for RC operation, uses a rectifier to block the bottom portion of the sine wave producing a pulsating pattern of electrical current. The action of the vibrator operating from a half cycle of power, is transmitted through the springs to the equipment to be vibrated. The S Model vibrator has a built-in rectifier, which eliminates the need of a controller. However, the vibrator output remains constant. The S Model vibrator is connected directly to the power supply. INSTALLATION The vibrator may be installed in any position, on a vertical plane. The base is provided with 7/16 diameter mounting holes. The bolts must be securely tightened; check frequently to see that these bolts remain tight. The current supply must be the same as the rating designated on the nameplate. OPERATION NOTE: If the vibrator is installed on a hopper, do not operate the vibrator while the hopper is closed, the vibratory action will compact the contents of the hopper. To operate the vibrator, simply connect leads to the control terminals and control to the power supply. The use of a controller permits the output of the vibrator to be controlled by turning the rheostat knob; clockwise to increase output and counterclockwise to decrease output. 1
CAUTION: If the current draw is excessive, the armature and the core assemblies begin to strike; indicated by a loud rapping noise. Immediately decrease the rheostat setting until the striking stops, indicated by the diminishing noise. Refer to Air Gap Adjustment instructions to correct striking condition. MAINTENANCE WARNING: Disconnect the power supply at the safety disconnect switch before performing any maintenance. Vibrator and controller must be kept clean and all hardware must be kept tight. Examine rubber components for cracks or loss of resiliency. If defective, replace all mounting assemblies. After replacing mounting assemblies, check the air gap, an adjustment may be required. Refer to Air Gap Adjustment section of these instructions. AIR GAP ADJUSTMENT The air gap is the space between the core and armature assemblies. If the armature assembly strikes the core assembly (indicated by a loud rapping noise) an adjustment of the air gap is necessary. The air gap should be set wide enough so the vibrator will not exceed the current rating designated on the name plate yet close enough to prevent striking of the armature and assemblies. The air gap must be set at approximately.160 for 60 cycle units and.175 for 50 cycle units. To check the air gap, remove the cover from the body assembly and insert a feeler gauge. Adjustment is determined by the number and size of shims (J) between the rubber mounting and armature bracket.
