Secondary Baffle
1. The secondary baffle has been positioned by Metalfab engineering for your
application requirement. ItÅfs position will allow for the proper flow of product
through the Bin Activator outlet.
2. The position of the secondary baffle is maintained by an Esna type lock nut. The
secondary baffle can be repositioned vertically by using a deep socket type
wrench to loosen the lock nut, thereby allowing the secondary baffle to be
turned, possible by hand, on the threaded section of the extended rod, to a
higher or lower position. Since the secondary baffle is located near the outlet, it
is easily accessible from the outlet.
3. If flow problems occur, the secondary baffle could be repositioned to help
eliminate the problem. Before making any adjustments, it is advisable to check
with Metalfab engineering for advice as to what new position might be helpful.
Maintenance Instructions
1. Vibrator Lubrication
The vibrators are lubricated as supplied. The lubrication is good for 2,000 to
5,000 hours. See vibrator instructions.
2. Flexible Sleeve
Aside from checking the clamp tightness, there is no maintenance required on
the sleeve. Periodic visual checks should be made to see if there is damage
caused by material or solvent attack of the elastomer.
Note: Standard sleeve is Neoprene with a maximum temperature
rating of 210ÅãF and VITON with a maximum temperature
rating of 400ЕгF.
