IMPORTANT NOTICE

Vibrators and vibrating equipment can be dangerous if not used correctly.
1. DO NOT hold or touch when running.
2. DO NOT stand or sit on vibratory equipment when running.
3. USE ONLY for the purpose intended.
4. USE ONLY when vibrators are securely mounted.
5. USE ONLY when pneumatic hoses and fittings are securely tightened.
6. ALWAYS wear ear protectors.

We reserve the right to improve, modify or withdraw specifications or products without notice or obligation.

OPERATING AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

The VTC range operate on compressed air from 3.5 up to 6.0 bar max.
Lubricated air does not need to be used when vibrator requires no lubrication i.e. GT, FPLF.

The working temperature should be in range -10°C to +70°C.

Installation

The VIBTEC Vacuum Clamps come with fitted hose sets and pre-drilled for all the appropriate vibrators stated in this leaflet.
Vacuum caps hold best on flat surfaces, but can be applied to almost any radiused surfaces indicated in the table on the front page of this leaflet.
Surfaces must be fairly smooth (no dents), dry and clean.

1. Hold unit against surface and switch on vacuum control valve.

2. Connect safety cable vertically above the unit and adjust, then switch on the vibrator.

3. If the supplied air fails releasing the vacuum clamp, it should not be able to swing dangerously to cause damage or injury.

4. When not in use, wipe/ clean vacuum cups and protect from damage.

Maintenance

Generally little maintenance is required if good quality filtered air is used.

1. To remove the vacuum generator/ venturi for cleaning, unscrew air fitting and silencer,
then lightly tap to remove spacer and generator/ venturi.
If these do not readily drop out, push out with wooden stick.

2. Make sure the silencer is cleaned and re-fitted in the same port.

ATTENTION

Always ensure compressed air is off during installation or maintenance.
Always ensure only filtered air is used and the filter cleaned regularly.
Always use suitable bolts, locking washers or Loctite for mounting vibrators.
Always maintain a regular check on the tightness of the fixing bolts and hose connections.
Always ensure vacuum exhausts to each cup are regularly inspected and cleaned.
Always ensure lubrication (when required) is adequate. Use lubricator accordingly to vibratory unit fitted.
Always ensure safety cables are fitted and adjusted on the VTC range.

Vacuum Clamps

The flexible solution –
Fixing, vibrating, unfixing.

VTC-10 with Vibrator GT-10

VTC-20D

Mounting plate with bores for
fixing the vibrator

VTC-15S

Properties

Fast and flexible solution to mount the vibrator temporary
Sturdy and simple construction
Easy connection to the air supply of the Vibrator together with the vacuum clamp

Field of application

Wherever vibration is needed for a short time, at silos, containers, reactors and pipelines…

A smooth, clean and not too high-crowned surface increases the retention of the Vacuum-Clamps .

Construction

Air-actuated suction cups. Single or two-way (series D) with mounting plate for fixing the vibrator and – if desired – of the compressed-air conditioner.
