Troubleshooting
Problem and Potential Cause
Low Capacity or Pressure
•Incorrect direction of rotation. Make sure the fan rotates in same di-
rection as the arrows on the motor or belt drive assembly.
•Poor fan inlet conditions. There should be a straight clear duct at the
inlet.
•Improper wheel alignment.
•Damper held shut by tape.
•Screw attaching duct work to collar interfering with damper operation.
Excessive Vibration and Noise
•Damaged or unbalanced wheel.
•Speed too high.
•Incorrect direction of rotation. Make sure the fan rotates in same di-
rection as the arrows on the motor or belt drive assembly.
•Motor needs lubrication or replacement.
•Fan surge.
Overheated Motor
•Motor improperly wired.
•Incorrect direction of rotation. Make sure the fan rotates in same di-
rection as the arrows on the motor or belt drive assembly.
•Cooling air diverted or blocked.
•Improper inlet clearance.
•Incorrect fan RPMs.
•Incorrect voltage.
Fans exhausting contaminated air (airborne abrasives)
should be inspected every three months.
Regular inspections are recommended for fans exhaust-
ing non-contaminated air.
It is recommended the following inspections be conducted
twice per year.
• Inspect bolts and setscrews for tightness. Tighten as
necessary.
• Inspect for cleanliness. Clean exterior surfaces only.
Removing dust and grease on motor housing assures
proper motor cooling.

these steps:

1. Disconnect the motor from electrical supply.
2. Remove the mounting bolts on the inlet plate assem-
bly and remove the motor/wheel assembly.

mal conditions they will not require further maintenance for
a period of ten years.
