drive bearing and sheaves. Mount bearing bar assembly
to housing. See Figure 2 for wheel-funnel overlap.
a. Assemble parts in above order on shaft.
b. Proceed with connection of the shaft assembly to sup-
ports in step 7 above.
10. Install motor on the base if applicable. Carefully align
shafts for drive installation.
11. Fans that have motors and drives mounted at the factory
are trim balanced prior to shipment. This is not possible
on units that are shipped without motors and drives.
The addition of drive components in the field can create
unbalance forces. Twin City Fan & Blower recommends
final balancing of the unit after the drive components
are installed. Failure to do so voids the Twin City Fan &
Blower warranty.
Bearing Installation
The following section gives some general instructions on bear-
ing installation. If bearings are to be field installed, the specific
installation manual for the bearings will be provided and should
be followed carefully. Always make sure to check the assembly
drawings and bearing manufacturer's instructions for location
of the fixed and expansion bearings. The positions of these
bearings cannot be interchanged.
Sleeve Bearings
1. The bearings should be disassembled and cleaned with
appropriate solvent, taking care not to interchange parts
between bearings. Parts of one bearing are generally not
interchangeable with parts from another bearing.
2. The lower bearing housing should be bolted loosely to
the pedestal. The lower liner should then be placed in the
housing.
3. Oil the lower liner per manufacturer’s instructions and
carefully sling the rotor assembly into place, being very
careful not to damage the bearing liners.
4. Make sure to install the oil slinger rings in their correct
location and peen the ring screws in place.
5. When handling the liners, be careful not to damage the
surfaces, as they are babbitted and are fragile.
6. The housings are generally tapped with a number of ports.
Be sure the oil level gauge, circulating oil supply and
discharge, thermocouples, etc., are correctly connected.
7. Make sure that proper oil type and quantity is used.
8. Make sure that the thrust collar screws, liner screws, cap
bolts, and plunger are torqued to manufacturer’s specifica-
tions.
