1 INTRODUCTION!To insure safe operation of your All-Star blower, please read this instruction manual and pay particular attention to instructions marked with the following signs:!!DANGER Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.WARNING Indicates a potentially hazardous situation, which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.CAUTION Indicates a potentially hazardous situation, which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury.1.1 ApplicationThe All-Star blower is a complete unit, ready for immediate installation. It is designed for handling air and other non-flammable, non-corrosive and non-explosive gasses only.1.2 Blower PressureThe drive motor can be loaded to the total differential pressuregiven in the Technical Data table. 1.3 TemperatureThe maximum permissible ambient temperature and gas temperature at the inlet is 40 degree C (104 degree F). Forhigher temperature use, refer to the factory.

1.4 Performance SpecificationsAll blower motors are 2 pole design and operate at approximately 3450 rpm at 60HZ.Motors are suitable for operation on 3/50/220/380. Motor nameplate currents varyfrom time to time. If the current listed below is different from the current on your motor nameplate, use the nameplate current for sizing and selection purposes.

!2 OPERATION2.1 Transport and StorageWhen lifted by crane, All-Star blowers must be secured at the eyebolt on the pump casing.Attention should be paid to the load-bearing capacity of the hoisting equipment.2.2 InstallationAll-Star blowers can be installed and mounted in any horizontal orvertical position. Quiet vibration-free running is achieved by insuring the blower is mounted onto a firm foundation or structure.Keep ventilation gratings and opens clear. The direction of flow isindicated by an arrow on the silencer housing.WARNING On installation or after maintenance, it is required to check that the blower rotation is correct before returning to service.WARNING Do not operate the blower with the outlet blocked or restricted.!2.3 Electrical ConnectionDANGER The electric power must be disconnected before any work is performed on the blower or associated equipment.The system voltage and frequency must be the same as statedon the blower nameplate. +/- 5% voltage and +/- 2% frequencyvariations are permissible without affecting the blower perform-ance. The incoming electrical power should be connectedaccording to the wiring diagram located in the conduit box cover.The protective earth conduction should be connected tothe terminal.!

CAUTION High surface temperatures of more than 70 Deg C (158 Deg F) can occur on the blower's surface. No heat-sensitive parts such as normal electrical leads or electronic components can make contact with or be attached to the blower. Warning signs and protective screens must be installed around the blower surfaces to prevent accidental contact by individuals.The rated motor currents are based on 40 Deg C gas inlet andambient temperature.Select motor circuit breakers to match the rated motor current.All-Star blowers are suitable for operation on VFD (variable frequencydrives). Shielded power leads are recommended to control high frequency currents and voltage harmonics that cause electromagneticinterference.Exceeding the rated operating speed (3450 rpm), causes increasednoise, vibration, heat and reduces the life of bearing lubricant. Ifthe blower is to operate at higher speeds, the manufacturershould be contacted.!!2.4 CommissioningCAUTION The blower must not be operated with the intake or outlet closed or blocked.!CAUTION If the blower is started without being bolted to a mounting base, the initial starting torque of the motor may cause the blower to move suddenly and possibly topple over.For safe operation, the following conditions, as a minimummust be followed:The blower should be assembled and operated according tothe data on the nameplate.When VFDs are used, operating speeds are not to be exceededunless the blower has been specifically designed for VFDoperation.The blower is property assembled, aligned and connected topiping and/or hosing.

3.0 Lubrication!DANGER Before any work is performed on the blower, equipment and especially when removing covers on moving parts, the motor needs to be disconnected from the electrical power supply.!DANGER Do not connect the electrical power supply until the blower and other equipment have been completely reassembled.3.13.2Shielded and open bearings require relubrication. The frequency of replacing the grease depends upon the application. As a guideline, in normal clean environments with less than a 40 Deg C ambient, bearings should be lubricated after approximately 20,000hours of service or prior to 2.5 years. If service conditions are dusty, dirty or include high operating temperatures, bearings shouldbe lubricated more frequently.Bearing TypesGrease TypesAll-Star blowers utilize standard Shell Albida LC, -30 Deg F to+ 320 Deg F, although other lubricants can be used from time to time and is therefore subject to change. Lubricants of different manufacturers should not be mixed. If changing lubricant types, the bearing and housing should be thoroughly cleaned to removeall lubricant before adding grease from a new supplier.!WARNING On installation or after maintenance, it is required to check that the blower rotation is correct before returning to service.WARNING Do not operate the blower with the outlet blocked or restricted.!

!DANGER Covers which prevent contact with rotating parts are not to be opened during operation.4 MAINTENANCE!DANGER Before any work is performed on the blower, equipment and especially when removing covers on moving parts, the motor needs to be disconnected from the electrical power supply.!DANGER Do not connect the electrical power supply until the blower and other equipment have been completely reassembled.4.1 CleaningThe surface of the blower should be clean and free from dust orother contaminants. Surface dust can be blown with a lowpressure air hose or supply periodically to prevent a build-up ofmaterial.When required by the operating conditions, dismantle the coverfrom the blower by removing the screws or nuts from the cover.Do not lose the screws or nuts, they are required for reassembly.Remove and clean the cover. Clean impeller and the internalportion of the blower with low pressure air after covering therolling contact bearing and bearing grease housing. Be carefulnot to blow any dirt or contaminants into the bearing grease. Ifdirt enters the lubrication or bearing, remove the contaminatedgrease, clean the bearing and replenish with new grease.!WARNING After removing the blower cover screws or nuts, some parts held with centering fits and can suddenly separate, fall and possibly cause injury and damage to the parts. Care needs to be taken during disassembly to insure all parts are securely held in place.!DANGER Covers which prevent contact with rotating parts are not to be opened during operation.
