III. Installation Basics

Installation location selection

Selection of a suitable installation location is a prerequisite for normal operation of the Roots fan. The following aspects should be considered in the selection of the installation location:

1. well ventilated: Roots fans generate a certain amount of heat when working, a well ventilated environment helps dissipate heat and prevents the fan from overheating.

2. solid foundation: the foundation of the fan should be solid and level, able to withstand the weight and vibration of the fan, to avoid unstable foundations leading to abnormal operation of the fan.

3. away from noise-sensitive areas: Roots fan operation will produce a certain amount of noise, so you should try to choose away from the office and residential areas to reduce noise interference.

4. Convenient for maintenance: the installation location of the fan should be convenient for daily inspection and maintenance to ensure that there is enough space for operation.

After determining the installation location, the foundation should be inspected and treated to ensure that it meets the installation requirements. If necessary, you can lay shock absorbing pads or reinforcement treatment on the foundation to enhance stability.

Installation steps

Step 1: Equipment inspection

Before formal installation, you first need to conduct a comprehensive inspection of the Roots fan to ensure that the equipment is not damaged during transportation and that all parts are complete and free of defects. Inspection content mainly includes:

1. Appearance inspection: check the fan shell for damage, scratches or deformation. 2.

2. parts check: check the model and quantity of each part to make sure it is consistent with the installation manual.

3. Connection parts check: check whether the bolts, nuts and other connection parts are tight and whether there is any loosening phenomenon.

4. Lubrication check: check whether the lubricant inside the fan is sufficient and there is no leakage.

Through careful inspection, potential problems can be found and eliminated in advance to ensure that the installation process goes smoothly.

Step 2: Fixing the fan

After carrying the Roots fan to the installation location, it needs to be fixed on the foundation. The specific steps are as follows:

1. Use a hydraulic jack to lift the fan and adjust it to a suitable installation height.

2. Align the base of the fan with the pre-embedded bolt holes in the foundation, and slowly lower the fan so that the base fits closely to the foundation.

3. Use a wrench to tighten the base bolts to ensure that the fan is stable and free from shaking.

4. Use a spirit level to correct the level of the fan, and if necessary, adjust the base shims to make fine adjustments.

The above steps ensure that the fan is securely installed on the foundation, providing a good foundation for subsequent piping connections and electrical installation.

Step 3: Piping connections

The piping connection of the Roots fan is an important part of the installation process. Improper connection will affect the efficiency and service life of the fan. The specific steps are as follows:

1. Connect the inlet and outlet pipes as instructed in the installation manual, making sure the inside diameter of the pipes matches the fan connections.

2. Use sealant to seal the pipe connections to prevent air leakage.

3. Install pressure gauges and safety valves to ensure that the blower operates within safe pressure limits.

4. check the sealing of all pipe connections and reinforce them if necessary.

By standardizing the piping connections, you can ensure smooth airflow and avoid air leakage and pressure loss during the operation of the fan.

Step 4: Electrical Installation

The electrical installation of the Roots fan mainly includes the installation of power supply wiring and control system, the specific operation steps are as follows:

1. Connect the power supply line of the fan according to the electrical wiring diagram, and make sure the wiring is correct.

2. Install the control cabinet and connect the start and stop switches of the fan to ensure that the control system works properly. 3.

3. Use a multimeter to check the power supply voltage and current to ensure that the electrical parameters meet the working requirements of the fan.

4. install electrical protection devices, such as circuit breakers and overload protectors, to prevent damage to the wind turbine caused by electrical faults.

Through standardized electrical installation, the safe operation of the fan can be ensured, and safety hazards caused by electrical faults can be avoided.

V. Commissioning and acceptance

Commissioning steps

After the installation is completed, the Roots fan needs to be fully debugged to ensure that it can work normally. The specific steps are as follows:

1. Check all connecting parts and electrical lines to ensure that they are correct before energizing the fan for trial operation.

2. energize the fan to start, observe its operation, to ensure that there is no abnormal vibration and noise.

3. Use the pressure gauge and thermometer to check the working pressure and temperature of the fan to ensure that they are within the normal range.

4. Adjust the working parameters of the fan, such as air volume and pressure, to make it reach the best working condition.

Through commissioning, potential problems can be found and solved to ensure that the fan can operate stably for a long time.
