Before assembly
!
IMPORTANT!
• Sections can be assembled together to a maximum of 8 metres in
length and then lifted into place. The weight must be distributed over
several lifting points.
• Ensure that the bracing requirements are followed for the elevator as
specied in the Assembly, machine chapter, in the Legs and Elevator
head sections.
• Ensure there is no risk of the elevator boot standing in water. Lift/
raise it if necessary.
NB! Position the elevator boot so that the clean out hatches on all sides
of the boot (A) are accessible and so that the planned connections can be
made.
The elevator boot is prepared for feeding to the upward side plate.
a.
When feeding from both side plates, remove the cover plate (B) from the
downward side plate and ret the rib plate (C) as illustrated.
b.
When feeding to the downward side plate only, rst remove the rib plates (C)
from both side plates, move the cover plate (B) from the downward to the
upward side plate and then ret the rib plates (C) on both side plates, turn
the rib plates as illustrated.

Connection of the machine
!
WARNING!
• Connections to, from and between machinery must be permanently
mounted and fully enclosed. If the design of the installation does not
allow this at an outlet, finish off with a 1 m pipe.
• Unused inlets are to be sealed.
• Always use the cover on the inlet hopper (A/B/C).
!
IMPORTANT!
• Mealy, light material and slow running material must always be fed on
the descending leg side.
• Use only recommended inlet, outlet and connecting components.
• Ensure the ducting is dimensioned sufficiently and that its angle of
inclination is at least 45°.
Location of inlet
The inlet hoppers (A/B/C) and the connection hoppers (D) are always
positioned at the same prepared height.
Applies to SEH 50/18-23::
NB! Inlet hopper (A) is designed for a descending leg side and extended inlet
hopper (B) for an ascending leg side.

Assembling the machine
Belt alignment switch
The belt alignment switch is an optional extra that stops the elevator if the
bucket belt starts to foul on the slatted pulleys.
!
WARNING!
All electrical equipment is to be connected by a qualied electrician.
See separate connecting directions for electronics.
Fit the belt alignment switch in the prepared location in the elevator boot
and/or the elevator head.
!
IMPORTANT!
The bucket belt must be able to move 20 mm laterally in both directions
without the belt alignment switch switching off the power.

16 SKANDIA ELEVATOR – SEH 50/18, 50/23 & 63/30
Elevator legs
Fit the legs with leg spacer plates (A) in each joint except for the lowest joint against the
elevator boot.
NB! The legs have female and male joining pieces that are to be tted together.
!
WARNING!
The leg spacer plates (A) must be braced horizontally to a xed structure every 6
metres. If the top horizontal bracing (B) is located more than 2 metres below the lower
edge of the elevator head, cable bracing or similar is required for the elevator head's
support frame (read more in the Elevator head section, in the following information).
NB! The bracing requirements above are a basic condition for the strength of the
elevator and must be followed. If there is a risk of gusts of wind stronger than 42
m/s, the distance between each horizontal bracing must be reduced in relation to the
increased load.
!
IMPORTANT!
• Always fit 2-metre legs against the elevator head and elevator boot in order to ensure
that all types of accessory can be retrofitted.
•If the elevator shall be equipped with explosion relief panels, read the instructions on
the next page before fitting the legs.
NB! Fit the leg with the service door on the ascending leg side at ground level.

Explosion relief panels
!
WARNING! & IMPORTANT!
If the elevator shall be equipped with explosion relief panels, t the
explosion relief panels in the associated legs and the end of the
elevator head. Align the rst pair of legs with explosion relief panels
directly against the elevator boot and the others with a maximum of 6
metres spacing. Fit the dust curtain with explosion relief panel in the
head. Use only explosion relief panels supplied by Skandia Elevator.
!
WARNING!
• Never stand in front of an explosion relief panel while the elevator is in
operation.
• All electrical equipment is to be connected by a qualified electrician.
See separate connecting directions for electronics.

Elevator head
Fit the elevator head.
!
WARNING!
If the top leg spacer plates (A) with horizontal bracing (B) to a xed
structure are positioned more than 2 metres below the lower edge of
the elevator head, cable bracing* or similar is required for the elevator
head's support frame. NB! The bracing requirements above are a basic
condition for the strength of the elevator and must be followed. If there
is a risk of gusts of wind stronger than 42 m/s, the distance between
each horizontal bracing must be reduced in relation to the increased
load.
* 4 pcs bracing cables, Ø = 8 mm, are tted so that their division relative to
the plane is 90° and the angle of the cables from the horizontal plane is 45°.
– Tension each cable using turnbuckles to 2.0 ± 0.5 kN. - The attachment of
the cable must withstand a load of at least 8 kN. – Use an M10 shackle for
mounting in the support frame.

Back stop
The back stop prevents the bucket belt reversing if the elevator stops during
operation. It is mounted on the drive shaft protected behind a touch guard.
!
WARNING!
Ensure back stop and its touch guard are tted at all times except
during start-up trial of elevator. The back stop (C) must be tted so that
the arrow sticker points to the outlet.
!
IMPORTANT!
• Remove the back stop from the drive shaft before the elevator is
test started for the first time. Ensure that the bucket belt runs in the
correct direction before refitting the back stop. The damage that can
be caused to the back stop/geared motor by an incorrectly connected
geared motor is not covered by the warranty.
• In the event of stoppage in operation, troubleshoot as described in
the maintenance instructions and ensure the elevator boot is free of
material before restarting.

Bucket belt
!
WARNING!
The bucket belt is always to be inserted/removed/tightened in situ
using a vertical force or there is a risk of uneven loading and collapse of
the legs.
!
IMPORTANT!
Ensure that the bucket belt is tted with the thickest rubber coating (X)
(3 mm) turned toward the slatted pulleys.

Check that the bucket belt is running on the slatted pulleys. If it gets twisted
it must be adjusted.
!
IMPORTANT!
If the adjustable slatted pulley in the elevator boot is to achieve
maximum capacity, it must be in as low a position as possible after the
bucket belt has been assembled and restretched.
1.
Remove the service doors on both sides of the elevator leg.
2.
Fit the sleeve prole (A) on the back of the elevator leg.
3.
Pull the bucket belt in place over the slatted pulleys so that the joins position
themselves in the service opening.
4.
Fit the descending belt end between the sleeve prole (A) and the backing
prole (B) with nut and bolt. NB! If the hole pattern does not align, only the
outer holes need to be used.
5.
Lubricate the threaded rods (C) and lower them into the sleeve prole (A).
