Positioning the System Cheek that during handling operations the System has not suffered visual damage. Position the System in the desired location, using the methods indicated in Paragraph 3.2, [. 7UM-MR ENODT2The minimum distance between the System and the nearest obstacle (A in Fig. 14) is equal to the diameter of the System, and in any case not less than 1m. Ensure that the access door for the counter-weight retainer is in an easily hable position, Failure to respect this distance could make the System work less officiently and break the mechanical parts, because of the harmonic frequencies which would result, thal is on account of the collisions. 5.3. Anchoring the System ‘To anchor the System correctly to a support (industrial floor or metallic structure) use at least 4 (four) holes placed at 90° on the base flange, Refer to the drawings Fig. 5 and Fig. 16,Fig 1S — Anchoring the System to a concrete floor —Page 27, REF.

The apertures may be positioned in a manner most suitable for the connection of the rest of the plant. If necessary, loosen the Pixing clamp, or remove the bottom deck bolts if there are any and turn the deck until the correct location of the output aperture is obtained.

Failure to respect this entails the complete loss of the guarantee covering the entire System. 6.2. Principles of functioning The System is a three-cimensional vibrating sieve in which three dif controlled by & *VIBRO-ROTATING” system, oblained by means of the (lywheels and flags) fixed to the two ends of the motor sha. Control over the vibrations is obtained by unbalancing the hwo retainers in a suitable way. In particular, by ating on the upper weights, a variation in the horizontal movement of the product over the mesh is oblained, By varying the weight of the lower weights, @ vertical movement is placed over the horizontal one. For this reason, the time during which the material is kept on the mesh is contvolled by the lower weights, adcling or removing weights or changing their position. Fig, 20 illustrates this concept: the flow of the material over the surface of the mesh ean be seen, with an outwards movement (obtained by means of the upper retainer) and the rotation towards the exit (obtained by means of the lower retainer). rent moving layers are neing retainers Fig, 21 illustrates the trajectory of the particles, both vertically and horiFig. 21 Trajectory of particles over the mesh ‘This motion, together with a spiral movement, is controlled by the lower balancing retainer. With appropriate use of the weights and with the tight adjustment of the retum, various levels of sieving are obtained, each of which is suited to the dimensions and shape of the particles. The separator can be used for a wide range of sieving requirements, of both dy and damp products, Fig, 22 shows some of the possible tracks taken by the particles on the surface of the mesh. In ‘general, Hig. 22.7 shows the movement obiained with the maximum unbalancing possible. (counter- weights on the axis). Mig. 224 shows the movement of particles with alnost no unbalancing (counter-weights at approximately 70°). The correct adjustment is made by trial and ervor, because it depends on variables which are difficult fo quantify in advance.

Correct use of the System It is anticipated that the loading-up of product happens both manually (e.g, with a scoop), and with automatic or semi-automatic systems: Archimedean serews, conveyor belts, hoppers, bag emptying, etc, In any event, the sieve must be supplied through the centre of the mesh (see Fig. 25) Fig, 35 ~Spstem supplying ‘Supplying the product in a manner different from that indicated in Fig. 25 could reduce the effectiveness of the sieving. ‘The side emptying apertures take away the sieved product; a collestor must be provided. 6.5.
