Please read and save these instructions. Read carefully before attempting to assemble, install, operate or maintain the productdescribed. Protect yourself and others by observing all safety information. Failure to comply with instructions could result in personalinjury and/or property damage! Retain instructions for future reference.
Receiving and HandlingPennBarry fans are carefully inspectedbefore leaving the factory. When the unitis received, inspect the carton for anysigns of tampering. Inspect the unit forany damage that may have occurred dur-ing transit and check for loose, missing ordamaged parts. Mishandled units canvoid the warranty provisions. If units aredamaged in transit, it is the responsibilityof the receiver to make all claims againstthe carrier. PennBarry is not responsiblefor damages incurred during shipment.
Avoid severe jarring and/or dropping.Handle units with care to prevent damageto components or finishes. If the unit is scratched due to mishandling, the pro-tective coating may be damaged.Incorrect lifting may damage the fan andvoid the warranty.
StorageLong-term storage requires special atten-tion. Store units on a level, solid surface,preferably indoors. If outside storage isnecessary, protect the units against mois-ture and dirt by encasing the cartons inplastic or in some similar weatherproof material. Periodically inspect units androtate wheels to spread bearing lubricant.Failure to rotate wheels results in reducedbearing life and may void the manufactur-er’s warranty. If the unit will be stored foran extended time, remove belts. Beltswhich remain under tension in a station-ary position for extended periods are likely to have a reduced operating life.
UnpackingPlace the carton in an upright position andremove the staples or use a sharp (knifeedge) tool to carefully cut or scribe thesealing tape on both sides at the top ofthe carton. Open carton flaps. Removeany cardboard and wooden filler pieces,as well as loose components or acces-sories shipped with the unit.
Carefully remove the unit from the carton.Inspect the unit for any damage that mayhave occurred during transit and checkfor loose, missing or damaged parts.
InstallationFans must be directly supported by build-ing structure. Follow building’s blue printscarefully when installing.
INSTALLING THE DAMPERS:INLINE MOUNTINGWhen required, dampers must be positioned and fastened to the duct or fan housing.
ROOF MOUNTINGWhen required, install dampers prior tomounting the unit on the curb or frame.Secure dampers to the inside of the curbwithout undue twisting, which may distortthe damper frame. Damper frame mustbe reasonably level on all sides. Checkfor free operation. If dampers are motoroperated type, make certain that propervoltage (for electric type) or air pressure(for pneumatic type) is connected tomotor terminals.
POSITIONING AND RUNNING POWERLINES: INLINE MOUNTINGPower is normally brought from within thebuilding through proper conduit lines tothe unit. It is then fed to the (disconnectswitch, if furnished, and) motor. For beltdriven units, lines can be fastened to theexterior of the Inliner with appropriate fas-tening devices. All direct driven Inlinerunits are pre-wired. Ground and 12-gauge line wire are provided between themotor and a junction box mounted on theexterior of the fan housing.
ROOF MOUNTINGPower is normally brought from within thebuilding through proper conduit lines andplaced inside one corner of the curb.Feed power line through the clearancehole provided in the backdraft damperand in turn fed (through the disconnectswitch, if furnished) to the fan motor.
ANCHORING AND SECURING THE VENTILATOR: INLINE MOUNTINGInliners are designed for all angle mount-ing. Method of installation is dependentupon job conditions and may, under spe-cific circumstances, require support legs,angle supports or casing brackets.Vibration eliminators, where required,should be installed jointly with the units.Flexible duct connectors are commonaccessories, and if used, should overlapthe duct at least 2". Test wheel for free-dom of movement before installing unit. Ifwheel does not rotate freely then loosenventuri screws, move venture until wheelrotates freely and tighten screws.

It is particularly important to rememberthat the venturi end is the inlet side of theInliner. Position the unit so that the airflowdirection desired is proper; the inlet ismarked “Inlet Side”.
When the Inliner has been placed into its proper position, connect it to the duct system. Duct on inlet and dischargesides should be the same height and width as the inside dimensions of the square housing frame. Flare out the ductwork 90° to easily screw to faces of unit. A length 2.5 times the housing square should be installed beforeelbows or transitions are used.
Appropriately sized fasteners should be used and drawn secure and tight.Correct fan wheel rotation should be in the direction of the arrow affixed to the unit. Normally the wheel should rotateclockwise when looking into the inlet side of the Inliner.
ROOF MOUNTINGWhenever possible, anchor the fan byfastening through the angle hanger brack-ets. The type, size and number of fasten-ers depends upon the unit size and curbconstruction. If fastening is prescribed bycode or specification through any part ofthe unit, then neoprene or lead washersshould be used under the head of eachfastener. Large units installed in areassubject to high winds or unusual field con-ditions, or any units with hooded intakesor upblast tubes may require additionalfastening with guy wires. If the contractorremoves the ventilator parts to facilitateinstallation and electrical connections, allparts should be reassembled exactly asthey were found prior to removal. All fas-teners are to be drawn tight and secure.
Some local codes prohibit the connection
of in-line, aluminum fans in kitchen hood exhaust systems. According to present NFPA96 interpretation, ANY fanused in such duct work must be made ofsteel, with liquid-tight welds at all seamsand connections. If local codes are inaccordance with NFPA96 do not use ANYFAN that is not completely welded closedfor such duty. Refer to PennBarry’s Fumexand Dynamo products for roof and wallmounted exhausters approved for use onkitchen hood exhaust systems.
Start-Up and OperationCarefully inspect the unit before start-up.All motor fasteners should be securelytightened. Centrifugal wheel should berotated by hand to insure free movement.See page 6 for wheel alignment proce-dure. (NOTE: Before placing hand oncentrifugal wheel or belts, lock out powersource.) Check all set-screws and keys.Tighten when necessary.
Check the condition of belts and the amount of tension prior to start-up. DO NOT over tighten, as bearing damagewill occur. Recommended belt tensionshould permit deflection of 1/64" of the belt on each side of the belt measuredhalfway between the pulley centerline.Exercise extreme care when adjustingbelts as not to misalign the pulleys. Any misalignment will cause a sharpreduction in belt life an produce squeaky,annoying noises. On units equipped withtwo or three groove pulleys, adjustmentsmust be made so that there is equal ten-sion on all belts.
Whenever belts areremoved or installed,
never force belts over pulleys withoutloosening motor first to relieve belt tension.
Make sure inlets and approaches to theunit are free from obstruction.
When power lines are brought up to theunit, provide a generous amount of slackto allow for motor deflections and to per-mit movement of motor for belt tensionadjustments. Ground motor adequatelyand securely. Protect power lines fromsharp objects. Do not kink power line orpermit it to contact hot surfaces, chemi-cals, grease or oil. Use only UL recog-nized electrical parts, rated for propervoltage, load and environment.
Before putting fan into operation, com-plete the following checklist:
a. Turn off power source.
b. Make sure installation is in accordance with manufacturer’s instructions.
c. Check and tighten all fasteners.
d. Spin centrifugal wheel to see if rotation is free.
e. Check all set-screws and keys - tighten if necessary.
f. Torqued set screws have a coloredTorque Seal mark indicating the cor-rect torque has been applied.
g. Check belt or direct drive couplingfor alignment (use recommendedbelt tension gauges).
h. Check belt for proper sheave selection.
i. Make sure there is no foreign orloose material in ductwork leading toand from fan or in the fan itself.
j. Properly secure all safety guards.
k. Secure all access doors to fan and ductwork.
l. Check line voltage with motor nameplate.
m. Check wiring.
On single phasemotors, the terminal
block must be set up in accordance withthe nameplate instructions and/or wiring diagram. This set up must match the linevoltage. If the motor is multi-speed ormulti-voltage, the winding leads must begrouped and connected as shown on themotor wiring diagram. The line voltagemust correspond with proper grouping ofmotor leads. The wiring diagram must befollowed explicitly or serious motor orstarter damage will occur.
The ventilator has been checked at the factory prior to shipment formechanical noises. If mechanical noisesshould develop:
a. Check rotating components for adequate clearance.
b. Check proper belt tension and pulley alignment.
c. Check installation and anchoring.
d. Check fan bearings.

Switch on electrical supply and allow fanto reach full speed. Check carefully for:
1. Correct rotation of the centrifugal wheel.
Incorrect rotation overloads motor
severely and results in serious motor damage. To change rotation of three phaseunits, interchange any 2 of the 3 line leads.On single phase units, change the terminalblock set-up following the wiring diagramon the motor.
2. Check motor and bearing tempera-tures for excessive heat.
Use care when touch-ing the exterior of an
operating motor. Modern motors normallyrun hot. They are designed to operate athigher temperatures. This is a normal con-dition but they may be hot enough to bepainful or injurious to the touch.
If any problem is indicated, TURN OFFPOWER TO UNIT IMMEDIATELY. Lockout the electrical supply, check carefullyfor the cause of the trouble and correct asneeded. Even if the fan appears to beoperating satisfactorily, shut down after abrief period and check all fasteners, set-screws and keys for tightness.
During the first eight (8) hours of opera-tion, check the fan periodically for exces-sive vibration or noise. At this time, alsocheck motor input current and motor bear-ing temperatures to insure that they donot exceed manufacturer’s recommenda-tions. After eight hours of satisfactoryoperation, shut down the fan and lock outthe electrical power to check the followingitems and adjust if necessary:
a. All set-screws, keys and fasteners.
b. Drive coupling alignment.
c. Belt alignment.
d. Belt tension.
MaintenanceDo not attempt maintenance on a fan untilthe electrical supply has been completelydisconnected. Lubrication is a primarymaintenance responsibility. Check allbearings periodically. Inspect belts fortightness. If the fan is installed in a corro-sive or dirty atmosphere, periodicallyclean the centrifugal wheel, inlet, motorhousing and other moving parts.
FAN SHAFT LUBRICATIONFan shaft bearing pillow blocks are fur-nished in either the pre-lubricated sealed-for-life type or the greasable type depend-ing on what was ordered. The pre-lubri-cated type requires no servicing for 7 to10 years of normal use and the greasabletype are factory greased eliminating theneed for greasing initially. Follow the lubri-cating schedule recommended by the fac-tory. This practice should not supersedeany safety considerations.
Use low pressuregrease guns only. High
pressure guns tend to blow out or unseatbearing seals, leaving the bearing open tocollect grime, dust and foreign particles.
LUBRICATION SCHEDULEAlways follow the bearing manufacturer’srecommended lubrication schedule. Ifnone is available us the following general schedule.
a. Under average conditions whereambient temperatures do not exceed120°F, lubrication is required 1 to 2times a year.
b. Under dirt laden atmosphere wherethere is a temperature range of120°F to 150°F, lubrication isrequired from 3 to 6 times a year.
c. Under extreme temperature condi-tions and extremely dirty atmos-pheres, lubrication should be sched-uled at least once or twice a month.
d. Belt driven units maximum tempera-ture should not exceed 160°F. Directdriven models have temperaturerange stamped on motor.
Table 1: Recommended Lubricants
MOTOR LUBRICATIONIn general, standard motors are furnishedwith prelubricated, sealed-for-life ballbearings which require no lubrication for 7to 10 years of normal service. Wheremotors have been ordered with greasablebearings, these bearings are factory lubri-cated and require no attention for oneyear under normal conditions. If greaserelief fittings are provided, remove themwhen performing maintenance to allowgrease to flow out. Whenever possible,apply grease while the motor is running.This practice should not supersede anysafety considerations. DO NOT OVERGREASE, as most lubricants deterioratemotor windings, thereby reducing motorlife and presenting a fire hazard.
Hidden Danger In addition to the normal dangers of rotat-ing machinery, fans present an additionalhazard in their ability to suck in not onlyair, but loose material as well. Solidobjects can pass through the fan and bedischarged by the impeller as potentiallydangerous projectiles. Therefore, screenintake to ductwork, whenever possible, toprevent the accidental entrance of solidobjects. Never open access doors to aduct system with the fan running.
When starting the fan for the first time,completely inspect the ductwork and inte-rior of the fan (with the power locked off),to make certain there is no foreign materi-al which can be sucked into or blownthrough the ductwork.
Where the fan is accessible to untrainedpersonnel or the general public, use max-imum safety guards, even at the cost ofsome performance loss.
Unprotected fans located less than
7' above the floor also require guarding as specified in the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA).
Centrifugal fans may be connected direct-ly to ductwork which will prevent contactwith the internal moving parts, but whenthe inlet or outlet is exposed, install a suit-able guard. PennBarry recommends theuse of guards on all exposed non-ductedfans, ceiling and wall mounted.
Special Purpose SystemsExplosive, corrosive, high temperatures,etc. may require special construction,inspection and maintenance. It is necessary to observe the fan manufactur-er’s recommendations and limitationsconcerning the type of material to be handled by the fan and its application to special conditions.
