Permit-Required
Conned Spaces
A conned space has limited openings for
entry or exit, is large enough for entering and
working, and is not designed for continuous
worker occupancy. Conned spaces include
underground reservoirs, ground storage tanks,
elevated tanks, silos, manholes, and pipelines.
Conned Space Tips
• Do not enter permit-required conned spaces
without being trained and without having a
permit to enter.
• Review, understand and follow employer’s
procedures before entering permit-required
conned spaces and know how and when
to exit.
• Before entry, identify any physical hazards.
• Before and during entry, test and monitor for
oxygen content, ammability, toxicity or
explosive hazards as necessary.
• Use fall protection, rescue, air monitoring,
ventilation, lighting and communication
equipment according to entry procedures.
• Maintain contact at all times with a trained
attendant either visually, via phone, or by
two-way radio. This monitoring system
enables the attendant and entry supervisor
to order you to evacuate and to alert
appropriately trained rescue personnel to
rescue entrants when needed.
Refer to 29 CFR 1910.146 for complete
regulations set by OSHA. Refer to your state's
regulations if your state established and operates
their own safety and health programs approved
by OSHA.
Protect Yourself
It is important that you comply with all relative
OSHA and local regulations while installing
and performing any maintenance to the mixer
circulation equipment.
Key OSHA Compliance Standards that must
be followed (and not limited to) are:
• 1910.146 Permit-required conned spaces
• 1910.147 Lockout/Tagout
• 1926.500 Fall Protection
Fall Protection Tips
• Identify all potential tripping and fall hazards
before work starts.
• Look for fall hazards such as unprotected
oor openings/edges, shafts, open hatches,
stairwells, and roof openings/edges.
• Inspect fall protection and rescue equipment
for defects before use.
• Select, wear, and use fall protection and
rescue equipment appropriate for the task.
• Secure and stabilize all ladders before
climbing.
• Never stand on the top rung/step of a ladder.
• Use handrails when you go up or down stairs.
• Practice good housekeeping. Keep cords,
welding leads and air hoses out of walkways
or adjacent work areas.
Refer to 29 CFR 1926.500 for complete
regulations set by OSHA. Refer to your state's
regulations if your state established and operates
their own safety and health programs approved by
OSHA.
Lockout Tagout
When the On/Off switch is in the "ON" position,
the mixer may start up at any time if not already
operating. The mixer's On/Off switch can be
locked out by placing a pad lock thru the door latch
of the controller after the switch has been turned
to the "OFF" position. The On/Off switch is to be
used as the emergency stop.

Interior Assembly (After Fitting Through Hatch)
The SN1 Unit at this point is ready to be deployed, but it’s important to make a lowering/support plan, because
there a two interior assembly procedures that need to take place:
1. When the Torque Bar Assembly at the bottom of the hose is just through the hatch, it needs to be expanded into it’s
cross conguration. This involves:
A) Removing an existing M8 bolt/nut, B) Expanding Torque Bar, then C) Reinserting/Tightening the M8 bolt/nut
2. When the Collapsed SN1 Core Unit’s Floats just pass all the way through the hatch, they each need to be:
A) expanded all the way out until the square tubing is set inside the oat arm channel, B) Insert the Float Lock Pin and
Hair Pin to secure the oat in the expanded conguration, C) Repeat for other two Floats.

F1 Blower Operation
Motor Amperage
When the 1/2HP Blower is operating at peak performance, the motor amperage will be in between full and max load of
the rated motor current. The following table can be referenced for a 1/2HP Blower Unit.
HP Voltage Typical Full Load Amperage
0.5 230vAC 1-Phase 1.5 to 2.6 Amps
Amperage Readings Outside Normal
If amperage readings are not within range, it may be indicating that there is an excessive restriction to the air ow of the
machine or that the blower is no longer performing optimally. For low motor amperage, check the air lter for restriction
and clean or replace as necessary. The Replacement Air Filter Element is readily available by searching for the
following make and model number: SOLBERG 19P
For very high motor amperage or tripping breaker, additional checks may be required, such as measuring voltage, current,
and taking resistance readings for the electric power leads and motor windings.
Operation SN1:
Motor Amperage
When the SN1 is operating at peak performance, the motor amperage will be in between full and max load of the rated
motor current. The following table can be referenced for a SN1 Spray Unit.
HP Voltage Typical Full Load Amperage
1.5 230vAC 1-Phase 11.0 to 13.5 Amps
Amperage Readings Below Full Load Amperage
If amperage readings are signcantly below the Typical Full Load Amperage, it may be indicating that there is an
excessive restriction to the water ow of the machine or that the submersible pump is no longer performing optimally. For
low motor amperage, check that there is not blockage of the center nozzle opening for each of the multiple nozzle heads.
Amperage Readings Above Full Load Amperage
If amperage readings are signicantly above the Typical Full Load Amperage, it may indicate that the pump screen is
blocked with large debris or that the nozzle assembly has worn openings and requires replacement. The pump and motor
assembly can be removed from the oating frame assembly for inspection.
For very high motor amperage or tripping breaker, additional checks may be required, such as measuring voltage, current,
and taking resistance readings for the electric power leads and motor windings.
