2.0 SAFETY
Every effort has been made to ensure that the OmniRAM is easy to use, reliable, and
safe. This section outlines the general safety considerations and defines caution and
warning symbols used throughout this manual. For safe operation, the OmniRAM must
be operated only within the limits outlined in the system specifications. Acceptable use of
the OmniRAM follows:
•Indoor use only
•Main supply voltage fluctuations do not exceed ±10% of the nominal supply voltage
•Equipment is suitable for continuous operation
Warnings and Cautions
Table 2-1 identifies the symbols used throughout this manual to identify warnings and cautions.
Table 2-1: Warning and Caution Symbols
Warning and Caution Symbols
Caution symbol indicates a potentially hazardous situation that could result in injury
to personnel or damage to the product.
High voltage symbol indicates the possibility of electrical shock.
Turn OFF the electrical supply before removing any cover with this symbol
attached. Failure to do so may cause exposure to electrical shock hazard.
Access to electrical components should only be carried out by a licensed
electrician or qualified electrical engineer.
NEVER attempt to modify any electrical components or circuits. This may affect the
safe operation of the machine.
Electrostatic-discharge sensitive (ESD) components.
Only trained, qualified personnel should remove the access panels.
This equipment should only be operated by trained and qualified personnel.
Do NOT use sharp objects on the touch screen.
Do NOT disable or tamper with any safety items (e.g., safety interlock switches).

Component Replacement
The OmniRAM is designed with components that are specifically rated for use with the
OmniRAM machine. Replace worn, or damaged, components only with direct factory
replacement parts, or parts approved by Resodyn Acoustic Mixers. Incorrect component
replacement can impair the safety of the equipment and risk injury to personnel.
Technical Support for Mixer Installation
The OmniRAM System should be installed as outlined in the Installation Manual. If the
system shows any signs of visible damage during unloading, installation, or fails to
operate as outlined in the User Manual, the system should not be operated.
For installation questions and troubleshooting, see Table 2-2 for Resodyn Acoustic Mixers

3.0 SYSTEM INSTALLATION OVERVIEW
The OmniRAM is a ResonantAcoustic®Mixer for use in industrial mixing and processing
applications. The OmniRAM consists of a main enclosure that includes a sliding hood,
access panels, and Human-Machine Interface (HMI) (see Figure 3-1 and Figure 3-2).
Optional subsystems that attach to the enclosure include the Hoist, Vacuum Module, and
Process Control Module. The main enclosure and optional attached subsystems ship
assembled, with the exception of the Hoist.

4.0 INSTALLATION
This Installation Manual details the installation process for the OmniRAM and all standard
options. Instructions pertaining to machine options will be clearly identified and, if not
purchased, can be skipped. Prior to installation, ensure the facility is prepped and ready
for the OmniRAM and all external components. Contact Resodyn (see Table 2-2) if an
installation team, or offsite support, is needed to work with the customer’s facility team
during the installation process.
Shipping
The machine is shipped stripped down and crated. The Mixing Vessel(s), RTD Bridge,
Hoist, and associated equipment are shipped in separate crates.
Moving the Equipment
All pallets and crates can be moved with a standard forklift. The mass of the crated
machine is approximately 3800 lbs. [1730 kg]. The OmniRAM base includes four locking
wheels for moving the unit small distances once removed from the crate.
Leveling the OmniRAM
Adjust the four leveling feet until all wheels are off the ground and the machine is level.
NOTE
OmniRAM is equipped with casters at all four corners to facilitate
movement and positioning. Leveling feet are provided at each
corner to raise the machine wheels and allow for floor variations.
Step 1:
Move the OmniRAM enclosure
into its final operating position.
NOTE: Adhere to the required
clearance areas around
OmniRAM.
Clear areas around OmniRAM are required to meet operational,
safety, and maintenance needs. Deviation from clear-area
requirements may compromise the safety of operating personnel
and may cause downtime and equipment damage.

Step 2:
Using a 5/16” Allen wrench and a
half-turn, remove the Lower
Enclosure Access Panel.
Step 3:
NOTE: The wing nuts are located
on the front left and front right side
of the leftmost module.
Remove the two (2) wing nuts
from the Amplifier Module.
Place the wing nuts in a safe
location (they will be required
when reinstalling the Amplifier
Module).
Step 4:
Disconnect the four (4)
connections to the Amplifier
Module.

Step 5:
Without removing it completely,
slide the Amplifier Module tray to
its outmost position.
Step 6:
Using a 5/16” wrench, loosen the
bolt just behind the back of the
opened drawer.
NOTE: This will allow the
raising/lowering of the leveling foot
at the end of the threaded rod.
Step 7:
Using a 5/16” Allen wrench, adjust
the leveling foot to raise the caster
off the floor.
IMPORTANT: This step will be
repeated for all four OmniRAM
wheels until they are off the
ground.
Level the machine with additional
adjustments to the feet, until the
machine is level within 5/8” front-
to-back, and 3/4” side-to-side.
When complete, tighten the bolt to
lock the leveling feet.
Commented [TF2]: Hand-tighten? Or is a tool needed?

out, repeat steps 6 and 7 with the
bolt in the back of the machine.
Step 9:
Moving to the opposite side of the
OmniRAM, use a 5/16” socket to
loosen the eight (8) outside bolts
on the Mix Process Control
Module.
IMPORTANT: Do NOT remove
the Process Control Module yet.
NOTE: The Process Control
Module is an optional accessory, if
it hasn’t been purchased, a cover
plate will be in its place and step
10 can be skipped.
Step 10:
Disconnect the three (3)
connections to the Mix Process
Control Module.
Reach through the opening to
behind lower access panel,
disconnect the one (1) I/O
connection.
Finally, disconnect the two (2)
Coolant quick-connects (red
hoses).

NOTE: Do NOT lose attachment
hardware. The bolts and washers
will be required when reinstalling
the Mix Process Control Module.
Step 12:
Using a 5/16” wrench, loosen the
bolt made visible by the removal
of the Mix Process Control
Module.
NOTE: This will allow the
raising/lowering of the leveling foot
at the end of the threaded rod.

Installing the Hoist (Optional accessory skip Section 4.4 if not purchased.)
The OmniRAM can be purchased with a Manual or Pneumatic Hoist attachment (Figure
4-1) that ships separately from the machine. The installation instructions outline the steps
to mount the Hoist on the OmniRAM, and apply to both the Manual and Pneumatic Hoists.
Additional installation steps specific to Pneumatic installation are addressed in Section
4.4.2.
Figure 4-1: OmniRAM Hoist Attachment
General Hoist Installation Steps
Before installing the Hoist, verify the OmniRAM is level, as outlined in Section 4.3. These
steps apply to both the Manual and Pneumatic Hoist.
Step 1:
Place the Spacer against the Lower
Enclosure.
Line up the bolt holes in the Spacer
with the holes in the Lower
Enclosure.
Apply 243 Loctite®, or equivalent, to
the bolts.
Secure the Spacer in place using
the six (6) washers and bolts.
NOTE: Orientation of spacer: The
Spacer’s angled face should be
towards the front of the machine.
Use a 1/2” wrench to torque the
bolts to 11 ft-lbf [14.9 Nm].
