General Instructions

(Induced Jet Fan)

IJA, IJB, IJC II

1 INTRODUCTION

Kruger Axial (IJA, IJB) and Cased Centrifugal (IJC II) Induced Jet Fan is special
design fan to achieve high impulse throw of discharging air. IJA & IJB fan consists of an
attenuator at the suction and discharge side, pre-designed inlet & outlet guide vane.
Kruger Induced Jet Fans are also tested and certified by TUV SUB PSB Pte Ltd in
compliance with the requirement of Standard EN 12101-3: 2015 for the following
temperature ratings;

Class Ff250 (250ºC for 120 mins)

Class F300 (300ºC for 60 mins)
Class Ff300 (300ºC for 120 mins)
Class F400 (400ºC for 120 mins)

Kruger Induced Jet Fans has been manufactured to the rigorous standards of production
and quality control in accordance with the International Quality Standards ISO 9001. All
components have been checked and tested at the end of the manufacturing process.

The purpose of this manual is to aid the user in the proper storage, installation,
operation and maintenance procedure to ensure maximum equipment life and trouble
free operation. These instructions are intended to supplement good general practices
and are not intended to cover detailed instruction procedures.

Handling and maintenance should always be performed by experienced and trained

personnel or technician.

2 RECEIVING, HANDLING AND STORAGE

Rough handling during shipment and improper storage can cause damage that is not
noticeable until the fan is in operation. This can be avoided with proper storage and
handling techniques.

Fan should be hoisted with slings placed around the fan housing. Touch up the scratch
coated surfaces during lifting, to prevent corrosion to occur at this area. Store the fan in
a clean and dry place, preferably indoor to ensure fan shaft, bearing and fan casing are
protected against dust and corrosion. Do not store the fan in a location where it will be
subjected to vibration. This can cause the internal surface to rub against each other and
damage the bearings.

3 INSTALLATION

1) Induced Jet fans are shipped mostly assembled, however final checking and
adjustments are required prior to hanging the fans to the ceiling.
2) Induced Jet fans should be installed close to the ceiling but below the beam and
free any obstruction at the inlet and discharge.
3) Induced Jet fans shall be installed to its proper location and position in accordance
to the final drawing used in the CFD simulation.
4) All electrical work must be done in accordance with all applicable electrical codes,
by a qualified electrician.
5) Connect the power termination in accordance to the motor nameplate and supply
voltage. Wiring diagram is shown in Section 3.2.
6) Ensure that the fan impeller rotates freely.

3.1 Installation Method

2
3.2 Wiring Diagram

Jet fans are installed with a single speed or 2 speeds motor.

3.3 Vibration Isolator Installation

1) Select proper isolator.

(Spring Isolator can be selected from Kruger selection program or isolator
catalogue)
2) Adjust deflection based on the selected isolator.
3) Maintain the operating / free height at the same level through step 2.
(The entire assembly must be levelled)
4) Check all the deflection and operating / free height is properly maintained.

4 START-UP

4.1 Start-up Checklist

Before putting any fan into the initial operation the manufacturer’s instruction must be
followed. Complete the following checklist to make sure the fan is ready to run.

 Lock out the primary and all secondary power sources.

 Make sure that all fasteners and screws are properly tighten.
 Spin impeller to see whether it rotates freely and is not grossly out of balance.
 Inspect impeller for correct rotation for the fan design.
 Make sure the inlet (and outlet for IJA & IJB only) protection nets are properly
installed & fastened.
 Switch on the electrical supply and allow the fan to reach full speed.
 Check carefully for:
1. Direction of rotation
2. Excessive vibration
3. Unusual noise
4. Proper amperage and voltage values

If any problem is arises, SWITCH OFF IMMEDIATELY. Lock out electrical supply, check
carefully for the cause of trouble and correct as necessary.

4.2 Start-Up

The fan may now be put into operation but during the first 8 hrs of running, it should be
periodically observed and checked for excessive vibration and noise. Checks should be
made of motor input current and motor & bearing temperature to ensure that they do
not exceed manufacturer’s recommendation. After 8 hrs of operation, the fan should be
shut down to check the following items: -

1. Hanger, screws and bolts

2. Impeller condition
3. Motor alignment
4. Motor temperature

5) Cooling fan striking shroud 5) Check motor assembly
6) Electromagnetic fault in motor 6-8) Replace motor
7) AC hum in motor or relay
8) Starting relay chatter

1) Impeller loose on shaft 1) Tighten impeller

Fan 2) Impeller unbalance 2) Balance impeller
Components 3) Impeller not in center 3) Adjust impeller to center
4) Blade broken/damaged 4) Replace blades
IJC II Only: IJC II Only:
5) Impeller in contact with inlet 5) Correct inlet cone position
cone
6) Impurities or foreign material 6) Clean inside fan and impeller
inside fan housing

5.2 Fan is vibrating excessively

Problem Possible Cause Remedy

1) Impeller unbalanced due to 1) Clean impeller, rebalance the
Impeller deposits (dirt or grease) fan
2) Impeller unbalanced due to 2) Replace impeller

Problem Possible Cause Remedy

1) Impeller/inlet dirty or clogged 1) Clean the impeller or inlet
2) Improper running clearance / 2) Change to correct clearance
inlet cone to impeller fit
3) Impeller installed or running at 3) Change to correct rotation by
Impeller wrong direction changing poles of electrical
feed line to motor
4) Incorrect speed of impeller 4) Change to correct speed:

Electrical disconnected
Supply 3) Wrong voltage 3) Check for correct power supply
4) Failure of one or two phases 4) Check for correct power supply
5) Low voltage, excessive line 5) Check for correct wire size
drop or inadequate wire size

1) Motor not correctly connected 1) Connect the motor according to

the motor label
2) Load inertia too large for motor 2) Change motor

5.5 High power absorption

Problem Possible Cause Remedy

Impeller 1) Blade angle/wheel rotation not 1) Adjust blade angle/wheel
set properly rotation

1) Faults in the motor windings 1) Replace motor

Motor 2) Motor power supply voltage 2) Check with motor supplier
lower than the value indicated
on the identification plate

1) Calculated horsepower 1) Check selection

requirements based on lower
air density (e.g. High
Gas Density temperature) but actual air
density is higher
(e.g. Cold start up)

6 ROUTINE MAINTENANCE

Maintenance should always be performed by experienced and trained personnel. Do not

attempt any maintenance on a fan unless the electrical supply has been locked out or
tagged out and the impeller has been secured.

Under normal circumstances, handling clean air, the system should require cleaning only
about a Year. However, the fan and system should be checked at regular intervals to
detect any unusual accumulation.

The fan impeller should be specially checked for build-up of material or dirt which may
cause an Imbalance with resulting undue wear on bearings and belt drives. A regular
maintenance program should be established as needed to prevent material build-up.

Periodic inspection of the rotating assembly must be made to detect any indication of
weakening of the rotor because of corrosion, erosion, or metal fatigue.
