RAMFAN Blower User And Safety Guide
1、Safety
GENERAL Blowers are NOT intended for operation in explosive
atmospheres, unless specifically certified. See supplementary ATEX
technical data if applicable.
Blowers should be operated and repaired by trained personnel
only.
DO NOT START blower if there are any signs of damage,
particularly to blade, guards, or housing.
Do NOT move the blower while it is running.
Use good lifting practices.
Immediately stop the unit upon hearing excessive mechanical
noise or vibration.
Proper ear and eye protection must be worn while blower is
running.
Keep fingers and hands clear of blade.
Keep area clear of rocks and debris.
Keep away from children.
2、WARNING/ CAUTION
There are no serviceable parts in the blowers. Do not
disassemble blower for any reason. Unauthorized disassembly may
result in serious injury.
3、ELECTRIC BLOWERS
WARNING/ CAUTION
DO NOT use plug adapters that break AC power plug or isolate
the ground connection between the motor and AC power source. Always
use grounded plug and properly ground AC power receptacle.
Do NOT operate if there is any physical damage to cord or
plug.Fatal electrical shock may result if motor frame and adjacent
metal are not grounded in compliance with electrical code.
To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock, DO NOT use
with any solidstate speed control device, except those supplied by
Euramco Safety.
4、GASOLINE ENGINE POWERED BLOWERS
Move fuel Shut-Off Valve to the Off position when not in
operation.
Contamination of the oil will result if fuel is not shut
off.
Always remove spark plug wire and secure away from spark plug
prior to performing maintenance.
Carbon Monoxide and other combustion by-products are mixed
with air discharge.
5、WATER POWERED BLOWERS
Duct adapter to blower and duct mounting surfaces must be
clean and free of corrosion.
Connect inlet hose to proper supply
connection.
Observe the inlet labeling. Running the blower in reverse will
result in Turbine damage.
Use grounding connector when operating in potentially
explosive atmospheres.
Operations
6、BEFORE STARTING FOR THE FIRST TIME
DO NOT START blower if there are any signs of shipping damage,
particularly to blade, guards, or housing. If any damaged is
suspected,
STOP and call your dealer immediately.
7、GENERAL OPERATION
Start ONLY if blower is sitting in a stable and upright
position.
While on level surface and running at full speed, the blower
should not move around. If unit is moving, check rubber feet for
damage and replace if necessary. If this does not correct the
problem then impeller balance should be checked. STOP, call your
dealer.
STOP the blower if mechanical noise, vibration, or other
abnormal condition occurs. Any noise other than blade, turbine-type
pitch is not normal.
Do NOT move blower while in operation.
Use appropriate lifting practices.
When using the blower, note the directional airflow indicator
on the external housing.
Do NOT stack blowers without securing handles of stacked units
to each other using Velcro strap. (Except UB30)
When using duct, ensure that the duct cuff is securely
tightened on the duct adapter.
Units with conductive housings may require statically
conductive duct.
Allow blower to cool before storing.
Exercise care during deployment and storage to prevent
physical damage.
8、GASOLINE ENGINE POWERED BLOWERS
Before starting for the first time: Remove the spark plug wire
from the
spark plug. Slowly pull on the recoil starter; listen for
contact between fan
and shroud. Repeat. If rubbing is heard, STOP, call your
dealer.
Adjust tilt mechanism so that engine is level.
Fill oil sump and gearbox (if applicable). (see engine
manual)
Fill fuel tank with gasoline. (see engine manual)
Replace spark plug wire.
Adjust throttle to obtain desired airflow through
structure.
Engines equipped with OIL-ALERT may not operate properly if
not used on a level surface or tilted beyond blower tilt
mechanism.
9、AIR POWERED BLOWERS
Fill Automatic Air Lubricator. Motor must be lubricated to
perform properly.
Moisture trap and filter must be installed in the Shop Air
Line ahead of motor feed line.
Air units come complete with air control valve, air filter,
automatic motor lubricator, and grounding
clamp.
Read Air Motor Manual for instructions.
10、ELECTRIC BLOWERS
Use extension cords of suitable size for amperage load (see
nameplate data).
Failure to use proper size cord may result in fire or
electrical shock, and may cause damage to unit.
Always ensure the switch is in the OFF position prior to
connecting to power.
To protect the user, some units are equipped with thermal
overload protection and automatic reset. Motor will restart without
warning after protector trips. If motor thermal protection trips,
disconnect unit and determine cause
11、VARIABLE SPEED BLOWERS
Use InteliSense Controller to achieve desired air
velocity.
Unit can be turned on and off at any speed setting.
Unit can be powered by a GFCI outlet.
Speed Control is Spray-resistant Not waterproof.
12、ATEX RATED BLOWERS
USE Ex-Rated receptacles for this equipment.
See supplementary ATEX instruction sheet for limitations of
use.
13、VENTURI BLOWERS
Operate on compressed air or saturated steam lines limited to
100 p.s.i.
Due to high reaction force, be sure to firmly position and
secure unit before turning on the air supply.
Keep area free of loose debris or solid objects.
Properly ground this product to prevent static discharge when
used in areas containing combustible gas, vapor or dust.
Do not drag the aluminum base of this product across steel
which can create a smear. A heavy smear, when struck with some
objects, can cause an incendiary spark.
