Start Up - Hitachi E-U Series Instruction Manual

5. START UP

Follow the steps below during start up of the Vortex Blower.
1. Power Supply Check
Check:
• Switch Capacity
•
Ground
•
Power Supply Connections
• Contact Defect In A Switch
2. Rotation Direction Check
Inspect the Vortex Blower for proper
rotation direction as shown on the
nameplate. Rotation direction can be
checked using the following two (2)
procedures:
• Insert a rod through the hole in the
end cover and rotating the outer fan.
•
Confirm whether the air flow of the
Vortex Blower suction/discharge ports
coincides
directional stickers.
3. Operating Static Pressure and Amperage Current Check
Use a pressure gauge and ammeter to verify
that the operating static pressure and
amperage
maximum ratings.
4. Operating Conditions Check
Inspect:
• Is there an unbalanced
voltage on the power supply?
•
Is there excessive vibration or noise?

If current does not flow through the
wire because of a break in the power
supply or a contact defect in a
switch, the Vortex Blower operation
will single phase. This may cause
the motor burnout.
If the rotation direction is reversed,
change the connections of two of the
three power supply cables.
(The rotation direction does not
reverse on the 1 phase Vortex
Blower.)

Provide a bypass hole that will allow
air to escape if the static pressure is

greater
operating static pressure.
• Current unbalance:
• Voltage fluctuation:
If these values are not within the
operating ranges, the Vortex Blower
motor may fail.
