Martin Engineering M3758-07/13 1Martin®Hydraulic Screen Vibrator
Introduction
General Martin®Hydraulic Screen Vibrators are equipped with motor-driven rotary
eccentric weights that are powered by a hydraulic motor, and deliver rotary
vibration through a complete range of frequencies. The motor is attached to
the separate head or case assembly containing the eccentric weights, bearings,
and shaft. The motor shaft is inserted in the shaft coupling and locked into
place, which causes the eccentric weights to rotate with the motor shaft.
The vibrator motor has a recommended operational ambient temperature and
mounting surface temperature range of -22 to 104°F (-30 to 40°C). If
operating the motor in environments beyond these temperatures, call Martin
Engineering, as the vibrator may require rating reduction, more frequent
lubrication, or lubrication substitution.
Model
identification Each model has an alphanumeric designation. Each letter and number
represents a specific aspect of the vibrator.
Prefix letters:
• HSV = Hydraulic Screen Vibrator
Model numbers:
• First two digits = Maximum speed (x 100 rpm)
• Remaining digits = Maximum force output in lbs. at the maximum rpm
• Optional suffix letter (V) = High-pressure Viton®seals
Example: HSV12-6050
• HSV = Hydraulic Screen Vibrator
• 12 = 1200 rpm
• 6050 = 6050 lbs force
Safety All safety rules in the above documents and all owner/employer safety rules
must be strictly followed when working with this unit.
Materials required Only standard hand tools are required to install and maintain this equipment.
Storage Store vibrator in an ambient temperature not less than 41°F (5°C) with a
relative humidity not more than 60%. If the vibrator has been stored for 2 or
more years, remove bearings, wash them, and repack them with new grease
(see “Lubricating vibrator”).
