5 Commissioning and

Operation

Chapter outline

After the installation of working unit, small conveyor unit, and controller you may

proceed to commissioning. Commissioning is carried out step by step, following a

flow chart.

Depending on the transported material’s properties, the working unit and the small

conveyor drive may be contaminated. Depending on the application, appropriate

cleaning agents will have to be used.

5.1 Commissioning

Commission the small conveyor unit by following the commissioning procedure

(Figure 5.1). Observe the explanations associated with each commissioning step:

1 Prerequisites: Have the following installation steps been carried out? Wor-

king unit (see Chapter 3.1), small conveyor unit (see Chapter 3.2), installa-

tion and wiring of the controller (see Chapter 4.2/4.3 and separate manual

for the associated controller)

It is impossibly to predict the behaviour of the small conveyor unit in this operating

manual if working units or controllers from third party manufacturers are used that

were not manufactured by AViTEQ. If necessary, contact the manufacturer!

2 The commissioning is carried out with the smallest possible vibration

width:

Before switching on the controller, turn the vibration width control (poten-

tiometer at the controller) fully anticlockwise („0“ on the scale). This corre-

sponds to the smallest vibration width.

The commissioning starts at the smallest vibration width, such that it is possible to

recognize problems due to installation errors in time. This is necessary as the

vibration behavior of the assembled small conveyor unit is still unkonwn. Example:

collision of the working unit with an adjacent conveyor component or stopper-to-

stopper operation.
