Safety
Please follow the below safety precautions. If there are
any questions, please call INDCO at 800-942-4383.
Please read this complete manual before trying to operate
your mixer. Failure to follow these instructions could result
in serious bodily injury or death.
• Do not touch moving parts while mixer is operating.
Do not wear loose-fitting clothes or jewelry around an
operating mixer. Keep all hands, feet, clothes, neckties,
necklaces and other objects clear of moving parts.
• Never move the unit without a suitable lifting device.
• Have a qualified individual bring power to your unit.
• Always ground the unit. Never use an extension cord.
• Never run the unit in open air.
• Never adjust the speed without the unit running.
• Always lockout the power when working on the unit.
Electric Motor Safety:
Motors should be installed, protected and fused in
accordance with latest issue of National Electrical Code,
NEMA Standard Publication No. MG 2 and local codes.
Frames and accessories of motors should be grounded in
accordance with National Electrical Code (NEC) Article 430.
For general information on grounding refer to NEC Article
250.
Not all rotating parts are guarded. Keep hands and clothing
away from moving parts.
Trained, qualified personnel should make electrical repairs
and non-standard connections.
If environment has hazardous combustible fumes present,
use only explosion-proof electric motors.
Air Motor Safety:
The air motor is designed to be driven by compressed air
and under no circumstances be driven with any other gases.
Fluids, particles, solids or any substance mixed with air,
particularly combustible substances likely to cause
explosions, must not drive air motor.
• Do not drive with flammable or explosive gases or
operate unit in an atmosphere containing them.
• Air motor is designed for air only. Do not allow corrosive
gases or particulate material to enter motor. Water
vapor, oil-based contaminants, or other liquids must be
filtered out.
• Do not use a hammer or force coupling or drive pulley
onto shaft when installing drive onto air motor. This
causes end thrust that could damage air motor.
• Ambient temperature should not exceed 250°F.
• Beware of any exposed and/or movable parts. Proper
guards should be in place to prevent personal and/or
property damage.
• Solid or liquid material exiting unit can cause eye or
skin damage. Keep away from air stream.
• Always disconnect air supply before servicing.
• Do not allow air motor to “run free” at high speeds with
no loads. Excessive internal heat build-up, loss of
internal clearances and rapid motor damage will result.
• Some models may exceed 85dB(A) sound level.
Hearing protection should be worn when in close
proximity to these models.
General
• Single-phase TEFC models include cord, plug and switch.
• EP models must be wired in the field by the user.
• DC-Variable-Speed electric models have a controller
mounted to the mixer and they are pre-wired.
• Air motors include exhaust muffler.
FL(G) - Flange Mount Series
Flange mount mixers are ideal for agitation of un-sealed
vessels and can be fastened to almost any flat surface above
the tank.
Receiving
Before removing any packing, visually inspect the exterior of
the shipment for any sign of damage. Should there be any
damage, bring it to the attention of the delivering UPS or
truck line and note the same on the receiving ticket. Should
there be damage you must place a claim with the truck line.
They are the only ones who will pay for the damage done and
you are the only one who can place that claim.
Installation
Your new mixer requires some assembly. Ensure ALL set-
screws and fasteners on the unit have been tightened
completley before operating the equipment. The impeller(s)
and impeller-shaft have to be fitted to the machine before it’s
operational.
