1. Introduction
6 PNEG-750-G2 16" Series II Sweep 131' and 135' Diameter
Bin roundness tolerance
Diameter tolerances are limited by foundation limits and sweep operation as well as
structural issues. For 72' diameter and larger, the overall tolerance would be plus or
minus 1-1/4" on the radius, plus or minus 1" on 42'-66' diameter bins and plus or
minus 3/4" on 30'-39' bins.
Bin opening size required
for installation
The tail section is the largest piece of a standard Series II Sweep. The dimensions for
a 16" tail section are 23-1/2" x 55-1/4". If the bin wall is not too thick, this unit should
fit through a 23-1/2" x 47" opening.
Voltage specification
The Series II Sweep is designed to operate using 460 volt 3 phase 60 cycle
power. The voltage must be within plus or minus 4% for proper operation.
Voltages outside of this range may cause excessive power draw or other operating
problems. Please contact the factory for applications outside of these parameters.
Electrical requirements
Electrical controls and wiring should be installed by a qualified electrician. The
conductor cables should comply with the National Electric Code and any local codes
which may apply.
Disconnect and lock out the power before servicing the equipment, entering the bin,
or resetting the motor overloads.
The control panel MUST be mounted OUTSIDE the bin near the door. It must be
located so the operator has a full view of the equipment and can see that all
personnel are clear. It must NEVER be installed inside the bin. The foot switch has
to be plugged into the control panel and depressed before the sweep is operational.
It has a 10' cord so the sweep can only be monitored from OUTSIDE the bin. The
thermal protection cord must also be plugged in before the sweep will operate.
