Operation

 

WARNING

Rotating Components!

Disconnect all electrical power, 
including remote disconnects before 
servicing. Follow proper lockout/
tagout procedures to ensure the 
power can not be inadvertently 
energized. Secure drive sheaves to 
ensure rotor cannot freewheel. 
Failure to secure drive sheaves or 
disconnect power before servicing 
could result in death or serious 
injury. 

CAUTION
Do Not Exceed Maximum 
Airflow!

Do not exceed the maximum rated 
airflow. Excess pressure could 
accelerate wear and cause damage 
to the wheel.

CDQ Wheel Startup

1.   Set seals. See “Seal Adjustment” 

on page 17.

2.  With hands and objects away 

from moving parts, activate the 
wheel and confirm the wheel 
rotation. The correct rotation 
direction is counter-clockwise as 
viewed from the pulley side.

3.  Verify rotational speed 8-10 

rotations per hour. The wheel 
should be a 1/4 turn in 100-150 
seconds.

4.  If the wheel has difficulty starting, 

confirm seals adjustment and belt 
tension. See “Seal Adjustment” 
on page 17. If belt slips, see 
“Drive Belt Adjustment/
Replacement” on page 16.

5.  Start and stop the wheel several 

times to confirm seal adjustment 
and proper belt tracking on the 
wheel rim. 

 

WARNING

Hazardous Voltage!

Disconnect all electric power, 
including remote disconnects before 
servicing. Follow proper lockout/
tagout procedures to ensure the 
power can not be inadvertently 
energized. Failure to disconnect 
power before servicing could result 
in death or serious injury.

6.  If the wheel has difficulty starting, 

turn off the power and inspect for 
excessive interference between 
the wheel surface and the four 
diameter seals. To correct, loosen 
the diameter seal adjusting 
screws and back the diameter 
seals away from the surface of 
the wheel. Apply power to 
confirm that the wheel rotates 
freely. Readjust and tighten the 
seals according to instructions in 
“Seal Adjustment” on page 17.

7.  

Damper actuators (if so equipped):

 

Stroke the actuators to observe 
full open and full closure of 
dampers. Adjust the actuator and/
or linkage to prevent “over-
stroking” so excessive pressure is 
not placed on the damper at the 
full open or full closed position.

Note: Do not exceed the maximum 
rated airflow for the wheel. The 
pressure drop across the wheel is not 
to exceed 1.5 inches w.g.
