Safety Instructions

Note: The term NOTE is used to call attention to useful information and is not a
safety notice. Information appearing in a NOTE provides additional information that
is helpful in understanding the item being explained.

1.5 Safety Precautions


The success of any safety program depends primarily on the attitudes and training of
the installation, maintenance, and operating personnel. The very nature of their work
makes it necessary that they develop a complete and firsthand knowledge of each
piece of equipment that is within their care. This familiarity enables them to recognize
the hazards resulting from improper usage.

1.5.1 Guards and Guarding


Where necessary for the protection of personnel from hazards, all exposed moving
machinery parts that present a hazard to employees at work stations or operator’s
stations shall be mechanically or electrically guarded, or guarded by location or
position.

Interfacing of Equipment
When two or more pieces of equipment are interfaced, special attention shall be given
to the interfaced area to ensure the presence of adequate guarding and safety
devices.

Guarding Exceptions
Wherever conditions prevail that would require guarding under these standards, but
such guarding would render the conveyor unusable, prominent warning means such
as signs or warning lights shall be provided in the area or on the equipment in lieu of
guarding.

4 IntelliSort HDS | Maintenance Manual | 29157701


May 3, 2021
Safety Instructions

Guarded by Location or Position


Remoteness from frequent presence of public or employed personnel shall constitute
guarding by location. Overhead conveyors, such as trolley equipment and hanger-
suspended tray conveyors, for which guarding would render the equipment unusable
or would be impractical, shall have prominent and legible warnings posted in the area
or on the equipment, and, where feasible, lines shall be painted on the floor
delineating the danger area.

When the equipment passes over a walkway, roadway, or work station, it is


considered guarded by location if all moving parts are at least 8 ft. (2.4 m) above the
floor or walking surface or are otherwise located so that the employee cannot
inadvertently come in contact with hazardous moving parts. Although overhead
conveyors may be guarded by location, spill guards, pan guards, or equivalent shall
be provided if the product may fall off the conveyor for any reason and endanger
personnel.

1.5.2 Headroom
When the equipment is installed above exit passageways, aisles, or corridors, there
shall be a minimum clearance of 6 ft. 8 in. (2.03 m) measured vertically from the floor
or walking surface to the lowest part of the equipment or guards. Where system
function will be impaired by providing the minimum clearance of 6 ft. 8 in. (2.03 m)
through an emergency exit, alternate passageways shall be provided. It is permissible
to allow passage under the equipment with less than 6 ft. 8 in. (2.03 m) clearance
from the floor for other than emergency exits if a suitable warning indicates low
headroom.

1.6 Controls
All electrical installations and wiring shall conform to the National Electrical Code
(Article 670 or other applicable articles) as published by the National Fire Protection
Association and as approved by the American National Standards Institute, Inc.

IntelliSort HDS | Maintenance Manual | 29157701 5


May 3, 2021
Safety Instructions

1.6.1 Control Stations


Control stations should be arranged and located so that the operation of the affected
equipment is visible from them. Control stations shall be clearly marked or labeled to
indicate the function controlled.

Equipment that would cause injury when started shall not be started until employees
in the area are alerted by a signal, or by a designated person, that the equipment is
about to start. When the equipment would cause injury and is automatically controlled
or must be controlled from a remote location is started, an audible device shall be
provided which can be clearly heard at all points along the conveyor where personnel
may be present. The audible warning shall be actuated by the controller device
starting the equipment and shall continue for a required period of time before the
equipment starts. A flashing light or similar visual warning may be used in conjunction
with, or in place of, the audible device if a visual warning is more effective. Where
system function would be seriously hindered or adversely affected by the required
time delay, or where the intent of the warning may be misinterpreted (e.g., a work
area with many different pieces of equipment and allied devices), a clear, concise,
and legible warning sign shall be provided. The warning shall indicate that the
equipment and allied equipment may be started at any time, that danger exists, and
that personnel must keep clear. These warning signs shall be provided along the
equipment at areas not guarded by position or location.

Remotely and automatically controlled equipment, and equipment where operator


stations are not manned or are beyond voice or visual contact from drive areas,
loading areas, transfer points, and other potentially hazardous locations on the
equipment path not guarded by location, position, or guards, shall be furnished with
emergency stop buttons, pull cords, limit switches, or similar emergency stop devices.
All such emergency stop devices shall be easily identifiable in the immediate vicinity
of such locations unless guarded by location, position, or guards. Where the design,
function, and operation of such equipment clearly is not hazardous to personnel, an
emergency stop device is not required. The emergency stop device shall act directly
on the control of the equipment concerned and shall not depend on the stopping of
any other equipment. The emergency stop devices shall be installed so that they
cannot be overridden from other locations.

Inactive and unused actuators, controllers, and wiring should be removed from control
stations and panel boards, together with obsolete diagrams, indicators, control labels,
and other material which may confuse the operator.

6 IntelliSort HDS | Maintenance Manual | 29157701


May 3, 2021
Safety Instructions

1.6.2 Safety Devices


All safety devices, including wiring of electrical safety devices, shall be arranged to
operate so that a power failure or failure of the device itself will not result in a
hazardous condition.

Emergency Stops and Restarts


The controls shall be arranged so that, in case of emergency stop, manual reset or
start at the location where the emergency stop was initiated shall be required of the
conveyor(s) and associated equipment to resume operation.

Before restarting the equipment that has been stopped because of an emergency, an
inspection of the conveyor shall be made and the cause of the stoppage determined.
The starting device shall be locked or tagged out before any attempt is made to
remove the cause of the stoppage, unless operation is necessary to determine the
cause or to safely remove the stoppage. Refer to American National Standard
Institute’s Control of Hazardous Energy - Lockout/Tagout and Alternative
Methods (ANSI Z244.1) and The Control of Hazardous Energy (Lockout/Tagout)
(OSHA Standard 29 CFR 1910.147).

1.7 Operation Safety Precautions


Only a trained person shall be permitted to operate a conveyor. Training shall include
instruction in operation under normal conditions and emergency situations.

Where safety is dependent upon stopping devices, starting devices, or both stopping
and starting devices, they shall be kept free of obstructions to permit ready access.

The area around loading and unloading points shall be kept clear of obstructions that
could endanger personnel.

No person shall ride on a conveyor under any circumstances.

Personnel working on or near a conveyor shall be instructed as to the location and


operation of pertinent stopping devices.

A conveyor shall be used to transport only material it is designed to handle safely.

Under no circumstances shall the safety characteristics of the conveyor be altered if


such alterations would endanger personnel.

IntelliSort HDS | Maintenance Manual | 29157701 7


May 3, 2021
Safety Instructions

Routine inspections and preventive and corrective installation and maintenance


programs shall be conducted to ensure that all guards and safety features and
devices are retained and function properly.

Personnel should be alerted to the potential hazard of entanglement in conveyors


caused by items such as long hair, loose clothing, and jewelry.

Conveyors shall not be newly installed, maintained, or serviced while in operation


unless proper installation, maintenance, or service requires the conveyor to be in
motion. In this case, personnel shall be made aware of the hazards and how the task
may be safely accomplished.

1.8 Installation and Maintenance Safety


Installation and Maintenance shall be performed only by qualified and trained
personnel.

It is important to establish an installation and maintenance program to ensure that all


conveyor components are maintained in a condition which does not constitute a
hazard to personnel.

When a conveyor is stopped during installation or for maintenance, starting devices or


powered accessories shall be locked or tagged out in accordance with a formalized
procedure designed to protect all persons or groups involved with the conveyor
against an unexpected start. Personnel should be alerted to the hazard of stored
energy, which may exist after the power source is locked out. Refer to ANSI Z244.1-
1982, American National Standard for Personnel Protection – Lockout/Tagout
of Energy Sources – Minimum Safety Requirements, and OSHA Standard 29
CFR 1910.147, “The Control of Hazardous Energy (Lockout/Tagout).”

Replace all safety devices and guards before starting equipment for normal operation.

Conveyors shall not be lubricated while in operation unless it is impractical to shut


them down for lubrication. Only trained and qualified personnel who are aware of the
hazards of the conveyor in motion shall be allowed to lubricate a conveyor that is
operating.

Guards and safety devices shall be maintained in a serviceable and operational


condition. Warning signs shall be maintained in a legible and operational condition.
Examples of warning signs are shown later in this section.

8 IntelliSort HDS | Maintenance Manual | 29157701


May 3, 2021
Safety Instructions

It is the responsibility of the owner/user to add any additional protective components


that may be needed whenever changes or variations are made to any of the
equipment components or operational characteristics.

1.9 Lockout/Tagout Guidelines


Appropriate lockout and tagout policy and procedures shall comply with the Code of
Federal Regulations, 29 CFR 1910.147 and the minimum safety requirements
outlined in the current publication of the American National Standard Institute’s
Control of Hazardous Energy – Lockout/Tagout and Alternative Methods (ANSI
Z244.1).

Effective January 8, 1990, O.S.H.A. has designated the need for a ‘positive, lockable’
means to remove all energy sources from equipment prior to new installation(s) or
any maintenance. The electrical power to the equipment can be locked out at the
main disconnect switch, which is normally located on the electrical cabinet. When
this is done, residual energy remains for some time in the capacitors associated with
the electrical system. This residual energy is automatically depleted by features built
into the equipment. After locking out the main disconnect switch, wait at least 60
seconds before beginning any installation or maintenance procedures. This allows
the residual energy to diminish. (If an equipment-mounted plate indicates that you
should wait longer than 60 seconds, wait the recommended period of time before
beginning any installation or maintenance work.)

Whenever you need to install new equipment or perform maintenance on the


equipment, or whenever you need to shut it down for any other reason, a lockout
procedure must be followed. Your employer is required by O.S.H.A. to develop a
written lockout/tagout procedure for this equipment.

1.10 Safety Signs


In an effort to reduce the possibility of injury to personnel working around conveying
equipment, safety signs are placed at various points on the equipment to alert them
of potential dangers. Please check the equipment and note all safety signs. Make
certain all personnel are alerted to and obey these signs.

The following illustration shows pictograms designed by the Conveyor Equipment


Manufacturers Association (CEMA) Safety Committee as a service to the industry.
They also mirror, to the extent practical, the pictograms on the associated CEMA
Safety Labels placed on the equipment. CEMA Safety Posters are also available to
place in work areas and break areas to remind personnel of safe practices.

2.1 Introduction
The IntelliSort® HDS is designed for applications requiring high rate positive sortation
of products. It is typically supplied with a flat extruded aluminum flight which acts as
the carrying surface.

The sliding shoe is actuated, or switched, under the carrying surface of the machine.
Once the sliding shoes are switched by the control system, products are diverted off
the machine to a chute. These sliding shoes are assembled in a flight and are
transported by a set of hardened industrial grade carrying chains. These carrying
chains contain roller bearings which reduce friction and optimize energy
requirements.

The sorter is shipped to the job site in several assemblies. Every sorter begins with a
feeding belt conveyor that is integrated with the sorter infeed terminal end, called the
idler. This is followed by a pre-sort section and then intermediate sorter sections
which contain the divert mechanisms. Divert mechanisms will be pre-engineered to
align with specified chute locations. Intermediate sections with a divert mechanism
come in 20° divert angles. Divert switches can be removed in intermediate sections,
as needed. Near the discharge end of the sorter, one of the intermediate sections will
include a catenary which is used to accommodate the excess slack in the chain. The
sorter ends with a large chute, which is integrated with the sorter discharge end,
called the drive.

General Description

Figure 2-1 IntelliSort HDS

Do not touch the chains or belt while they are in motion. Keep clothing and jewelry
away from the rollers or belt. Failure to follow this instruction may result in serious
personal injury and/or equipment damage.

General Description

Figure 2-2 IntelliSort HDS General Layout

2.2 Idler Section with Infeed Belt


The idler section with infeed belt is located at the infeed end of the IntelliSort. The
general function of this section is to induct product onto the sorter. The infeed belt is
driven by the sorter drive using a Power Take-Off (PTO). The divert shoes are
guided from the bottom to the top of the infeed idler by a pin guide channel, into the
cam retainer, and to another pin guide channel on the top of the sorter. The pin guide
channels maintain the position of the divert shoes as they travel between divert
locations.

IntelliSort HDS | Maintenance Manual | 29157701 13


May 3, 2021
General Description

Figure 2-3 Idler with Infeed Belt

2.3 Pre-Sort Section


In the pre-sort section, the setup switch selects shoes to enter on the correct side of
the cartons for left or right divert. The carton is then properly aligned to divert in
either direction. This section includes a calibration switch that is located on the
bottom side of the sorter that is used when the controller calibrates the sorter divert
switches. The pre-sort section is located directly after the idler and has no chutes.

The setup switch is used in conjunction with the pre-sort section to assign carton and
shoe relationships based on the side to which the carton will be diverted. The setup
switch is located on the bottom side of the sorter, upstream of the first divert.
IntelliSort HDS sorters require a setup eye that detects cartons at induction. The
setup switch and setup/induction photo-eye are equal distances from the sorter idler
roller. This positioning is critical because the shoes and cartons must meet at the
intersection of the sorter and induction belt.

14 IntelliSort HDS | Maintenance Manual | 29157701


May 3, 2021
General Description

When a carton is detected at the setup photo-eye, a carton marker is entered in the
first tracking array zone. The carton marker contains the information that the sorter
controller uses to divert the carton to the assigned chute. The assigned chute is
either on the left or right side of the sorter. The setup switch directs the assigned
shoes to the left or right, as required to divert the carton to the assigned lane.

General Description

2.4 Intermediate Section with Divert Switch


2.4.1 Divert Switch Operation
The divert switch assembly is positioned in the middle of the sorter. The shoes move
down the pin guide track to each divert switch assembly. A pivoting divert blade
activated by a control signal is located in the divert switch assembly. When the divert
switch is not activated, the divert shoe will pass straight through the divert switch
assembly and continue down the middle of the sorter. When activated, the divert
blade will pivot into the divert position through the switch, guiding the shoe to the
divert location, along the soft touch rail, and then along the divert rail and into the re-
entry block. Some HDS configurations will not have a divert rail due to width and
divert angle, which means the path goes directly from the soft touch rail to the re-
entry block. The diverted shoes continue out of the re-entry block into the pin guide
and down the sorter. All shoes are returned to the infeed idler section where they are
positioned on the proper side of the sorter by the pre-sort section.

The control system determines how many, and which specific, shoes will be used to
divert an item. In general, one divert shoe is sent for every 5 in. of product length.
The lead edge of the divert shoe is timed to connect with the leading edge of the
product to be diverted. This timing and calibration process occurs during the
induction of the product where photo-eyes are used to identify the leading and
trailing edges of the product. The divert switch uses through-beam photo-eyes to
determine the exact position of the shoe prior to entering the divert switch assembly.
The signal from the photo-eye is used by the control system to coordinate the timely
diverting of both the shoe and the product through the divert switch assembly.

May 3, 2021
General Description

Figure 2-5 Intermediate Section with Divert Switch

2.4.2 Divert Switch Detail


The IntelliSort HDS is supplied with an electrically actuated divert switch. The divert
switch is actuated by a signal from a central control system. The central control
system maintains the signal to release the appropriate number of divert shoes
needed to guide the product onto predetermined chutes. The photo-eyes are used to
detect the guide pin on each divert shoe. Divert chutes are positioned at stationary
divert locations along the side of the IntelliSort HDS. As the sorter conveying surface
cycles around the conveyor, all shoes are returned to the middle of the flight
assembly prior to the pre-sort section. The shoes are returned to charge positions in
the pre-sort section.

IntelliSort HDS | Maintenance Manual | 29157701 17


May 3, 2021
General Description

Figure 2-6 Divert Switch

2.5 Intermediate Section with Catenary


The catenary is where the carrying chains sag to their lowest point on their return
path below the sorter's carrying surface. The catenary is equipped with windows
through which maintenance personnel can gauge the amount of sag in the chains
and monitor the wear rate of the left and right chains to ensure consistent growth
rates.

IntelliSort HDS catenary sections are 21 in. deep. To ensure proper tension on the
chains, maintenance personnel must maintain the sag within the limits indicated.

Detailed checks and adjustment procedures are provided in the Chain Adjustment
and the Catenary section of the Service and Repair chapter.

Additional optional sensing equipment can be used in an HDS intermediate section


with catenary. The Chain Slack Detection Kit detects when the chain slack in the
catenary has reached its lowest allowable point and requires maintenance. The
Chain Jump Detection Kit detects the skipping of one chain, either the right- or left-
hand chain, over the tooth of its sprocket. The sprocket or chain would then need to
be re-clocked to ensure the sorter slats run perpendicularly in the machine relative to
the slat’s length.

May 3, 2021
General Description

Figure 2-7 Intermediate Section with Catenary

It is important to maintain chains in the recommended sag range. Failure to do so


could result in excessive sorter alarms, shutdown, or even mechanical damage.
Refer to the Chain Adjustment and the Catenary section in the Service and
Repair chapter for monitoring and maintenance instructions.

2.6 Carrying Chain and Drive Unit


Tension on the carrying chain is adjusted during installation and maintained by the
catenary take-up section. Carrying chains are driven by drive sprockets located on
the drive shaft. The drive shaft is driven by V-belts, which are installed from the drive

2.7 Divert Shoes and Flights


IntelliSort HDS utilizes streamlined divert shoes and runs at 400 fpm. Appropriate
gap is required between cartons for effective sortation of the product; gap
requirements vary based on the product mix and the control system. Smooth sliding
divert shoes are attached to each flight and are capable of sliding freely on a fixed
divert angle. The patented soft touch diverting system minimizes shoe-to-carton
impact speed. The flights operate at right angles to the direction of divert travel and
function primarily to carry product quickly and seamlessly to the divert chutes,
allowing the sliding shoes to divert where appropriate. In all configurations, the divert
shoes travel down the middle of the sorter prior to sorting.

Control Description

3.2 DCM Operation


The electric switch DCM provides two basic functions on the sorter. The DCM
controls the voltage to the brushless rotary actuator that moves the divert switch
trigger. The DCM also handles the precise timing of switch actuation to ensure no pin
trigger impact. Once the DCM receives an enable signal from the control system, it
fires the trigger in the next gap between divert shoes. If the enable signal arrives at
the DCM while a shoe bearing is blocking the switch photo-eye, that shoe bearing
will be the first shoe diverted.

The enable signal from the control system should remain active until the last required
shoe has been diverted. Upon seeing the trailing edge of the first shoe bearing not to
be diverted, the DCM will return the trigger to its home, non-divert position.

Figure 3-1 Shoe Leaving Switch Photo-Eye

Note: To ensure proper voltage is supplied to the DCM, a constant voltage


transformer should be used in the electrical design of the system. A constant
voltage transformer recreates a well-regulated sinusoidal waveform that is isolated
from input disturbances including: impulses, brownouts, waveform distortion,
swells, and sags.

Control Description

The DCM includes four jumpers that alter the operation of the board. All jumpers
should remain in their default position as supplied unless specifically instructed to
move by Honeywell engineering.

Table 3-4 Jumper Description

Jumper Description
Label

W1 Controls the timing of the switch activation. It affects the polarity of the
photo-eye signal sent back to the control system. When the jumper is set
to the “INV” position, the switch will fire when it sees the trailing edge of
the shoe bearing. When the jumper is set to the “REG” position, the switch
will fire when it sees the leading edge of the shoe bearing. This jumper
should normally be set to the “INV” position.
W2 Controls the motion profile during a divert and retract cycle. Some of the
jumper settings are in place to allow the same board to work for historical
revisions of the DCM board. The default position for this jumper is P1 for
the most current standard switch diagram.
W4 Should be connected across the two pins.
W5 Changes the timing relationship between detecting the bearing and firing
the switch. This jumper is on the board for future product development
purposes. This jumper should not be connected across the pins.

The DCM also includes a fuse. If this ever needs to be replaced, use a 250 volt,
3 amp, 216 series fuse.

3.5 Oiler Control


The IntelliSort HDS is supplied with an electric pump brush oiler. The electric pump
brush oiler should be cycled continuously at a rate of 100 revolutions ON, 100
revolutions OFF.

The length in feet of one sorter revolution can be found by counting the pushers.

Revolution length in feet = # sorter pushers x 0.42

To increase or decrease the flow of oil during an oiling cycle, adjust the set screws
on the solenoid valves as described in the installation chapter of this manual.

4.1 Introduction
This chapter contains instructions for removing, replacing, and adjusting various
components on the IntelliSort HDS. Be sure to follow all safety precautions and
Lockout/Tagout Procedures when servicing and repairing the conveyor.

Before performing any maintenance, follow the lockout/tagout procedure in


Chapter 1 Safety Instructions to ensure that equipment is safe to work on. Failure
to follow this instruction may result in serious personal injury and/or equipment
damage.

4.2 Flight Removal and Installation


1. Remove the chain cover from the section(s) where you plan to remove the flight.
Using screwdrivers or pry bars, lift the chain up and away from the flights. This will
allow the chain pins to pull out of the flights. Grasp the flight to be removed and pull it
toward you, taking care not to let it fall into the sorter frame.

2. Insert the replacement flight onto the chain pins on the far side of the conveyor.
(Make sure the sliding shoe faces the same direction as the other flights.) Use the
slots in the flight end caps to guide the other end of the flight onto the chain pins.

Service and Repair

3. Use screwdriver or pry bar to re-seat the chain in its resting position.

4.3 Chain Adjustment and the Catenary


The catenary is equipped with windows through which maintenance personnel can
gauge the amount of sag in the carrying chains and monitor the wear rate of the left
and right chains to ensure consistent growth rates.

To ensure proper tension on the chains, maintenance personnel must maintain the
sag within the limits described below. Failure to do so could result in excessive sorter
alarms, shutdown, or even mechanical damage.

36 IntelliSort HDS | Maintenance Manual | 29157701


May 3, 2021
Service and Repair

The approximate acceptable chain sag range, with the sorter running, depends on
catenary depth. All IntelliSort HDS sorters use a 21 in. catenary.

• For 21 in. catenary: -3.00 in. to +11.00 in. sag

The configuration of each sorter is different, so it may not be possible to achieve the
exact sag range of -3.00 in. to +11.00 in. On shorter sorters, removing 5 in. of chain
can have a more dramatic effect on elevation change in the catenary. In those
situations, it is better to have the chain too high rather than too low in the catenary.
Once the chain has worn such that it needs to be shortened, 5 in. of chain (one flight
assembly) will need to be removed from each side.

Figure 4-1 Intermediate Section with Catenary

IntelliSort HDS | Maintenance Manual | 29157701 37


May 3, 2021
Service and Repair

Measure each chain separately, using the window on the corresponding side of the
catenary. The amount of sag is the distance from the 0 mark at the top of the
catenary window to the top of the chain.

Figure 4-2 Catenary Window

Keep in mind, removing 5 in. of chain will raise the catenary sag by approximately
8 to 10 in. Ensure there is enough sag before initiating the following procedure.

To reduce chain sag, adjust chain length as follows:

1. Turn the conveyor OFF and perform lockout/tagout.

2. Remove approximately 12 ft. of chain cover from both sides of the sorter, near or
above the catenary.

3. Remove the lockout/tagout.

May 3, 2021
Service and Repair

4. Slowly advance the sorter until the corresponding master links (chrome-plated chain
coupler) are positioned in the middle of the chain cover opening.

5. Turn the conveyor OFF and perform lockout/tagout.

6. Remove six or seven flight assemblies that are near the connecting link, as
described in the Flight Removal and Installation section.

7. Identify the four chain links that will be removed from each chain.

Note: Work on one chain at a time after this step.

8. Install 3/8 in. forged eyebolts with washers between the chain rollers approximately
30 in. from both sides of the links being removed. Make sure the master link is
between the eyebolts.

9. Connect a 1-ton minimum chain or cable puller (come-a-long) to the eyebolts, add
tension to the chain until the four links being removed are doubled over the adjacent
links in a manner that will allow a full flight to be removed.

10. Use an appropriate chain breaker (McMaster-Carr #6051K16 or Grainger #1A912) to


remove the chain links identified in Step 7.

11. Use the puller to create the necessary slack and reconnect the sorter chain with the
master link.

12. Make sure the drive shaft is square and the carrying flights are perpendicular to the
side frame, not skewed.

13. Remove the puller and eyebolts.

14. Repeat Step 8 to 14 on the opposite side of the sorter.

15. Reinstall flights, chain covers, and guarding.

16. Restore power and slowly rotate the sorter to check operation.

17. Make sure that both sorter chains are properly lubricated.

18. Recalibrate the chain in the machine control HMI. Sorter recalibration is necessary to
ensure correct pusher to carton assignments.

Any time the chain has been altered it should be recalibrated in the machine
control HMI.

4.4 Chain Lubrication


Chain lubrication is the single most important preventive maintenance function on a
sliding shoe sorter. Be sure to follow the instructions provided in the Preventive
Maintenance chapter of this manual to ensure the chain oiler is properly filled and
functioning. While improper chain lubrication is not the only possible cause of chain
elongation due to pin and bushing wear, proper lubrication and application can
extend the life of a chain and save significant costs and downtime associated with
chain replacement.

4.5 Chain Temperature


An effective method of evaluating the lubrication being applied to the conveyor chain
is by checking the temperature of the left-hand and right-hand chains. The
temperature of the running chains should be initially checked after six hours of
operation.

To check the temperature of the chains:

• Take ambient temperature readings (temperature readings of steel objects in the


vicinity of the conveyor).

40 IntelliSort HDS | Maintenance Manual | 29157701


May 3, 2021
Service and Repair

• Take infrared thermometer readings of the chain at the idler end of the conveyor
with the thermometer as close to the chain as is safely possible. Measure the
temperature of the side plates of the chain, not the rollers.

• The chain temperature should be 5°F to 10°F (3°C to 6°C) higher than the
ambient temperature.

• If the temperature variance is greater than 10°F (6°C), the oiler system may need
to be adjusted to deliver more oil. Freezer applications give different readings
than room temperature environments.

• Each chain should be checked separately. Take the chain temperature at the
same place on both sides of the conveyor.

4.6 Chain Wear


Chain wear is checked by measuring the elongation percentage over a new chain.
Chains should be replaced when they reach a 2.0% elongation over their original
length. Elongation can be checked by measuring the center-to-center distance over
25 extended pins (48 chain pitches). A brand new chain will measure 60 in. center-
to-center over 25 extended pins. At 2.0% elongation, a chain will measure 613/16 in.
center-to-center over 25 extended pins and should be replaced. For good statistical
data, this measurement should be checked on both sides of the sorter (LH and RH
chain) every 100 feet to ensure elongation on the entire chain.

4.7 Cleaning the Divert and Crossover Switches


1. Make a window by removing approximately 15 flights in the conveyor to access the
divert switches.

2. Move the window to the location of a divert switch.

3. Use compressed air to blow out the debris in the switch mechanisms.

4. Wipe the switches with a clean, dry soft cotton towel to remove any oil or debris
which may have collected.

5. It may be necessary to use a mild detergent to remove all of the debris from the
switches.

Never use a solvent-based cleaner on the divert switches. Solvent-based cleaners


may damage the polymer materials in the switch and will destroy the photo-eye
lens cover. Failure to follow this instruction may result in equipment damage.

6. Look for loose or broken parts. Replace as required.

Maintenance 5
5.1 Introduction

Before performing any maintenance or lubrication services, follow the


Lockout/Tagout procedure in the Safety Instructions chapter to ensure that the
equipment is safe to work on. Failure to follow this instruction may result in serious
personal injury and/or equipment damage.

The satisfactory performance and reliability of this equipment is dependent upon a


proficient preventive maintenance program with scheduled equipment inspections
under normal operating conditions. Accurate records of maintenance and repairs will
help to identify problem areas and repetitive problem patterns. It is imperative that
adequate records be kept in connection with the preventive maintenance program.
These records should contain the date of inspection, inspection results, equipment
services, repair history, part replacement history, and any other information that will
help to make the maintenance process more efficient and accurate. It is
recommended that each conveyor have its own record. Properly kept, the conveyor
record sheet will form a mechanical history of the equipment covered.

IntelliSort HDS | Maintenance Manual | 29157701 61


May 3, 2021
Preventive Maintenance

Preventive maintenance consists of regular service (lubrication, adjustments,


cleaning, etc.). Part of preventive maintenance is becoming aware of potential
problems by simply using your senses. Use your eyes to see potential component
failure. Use your ears to listen for abnormal or louder than normal noises. Use your
nose to smell a motor running abnormally warm in time to prevent its burnout. These
sights, noises, and smells can be indicators of lack of lubrication, misalignment, or
other potential trouble. Ignore them and you will be replacing a control card,
motorized roller, or whatever does go out when a component is lacking proper
preventive maintenance.

Only qualified maintenance specialists should maintain the mechanical, electrical,


and pneumatic portion of the conveyor.

5.2 Maintenance Precautions

Read and understand these precautions completely before operating, setting up,
running, or performing maintenance on the equipment. Failure to follow this
instruction may result in serious personal injury and/or equipment damage.

• When testing operating performance, do not start the equipment until all
operations and maintenance personnel are notified and clear of the unit being
tested.

• Be certain that required safety guards are never removed without authorization.

• Never run the equipment under production conditions without safety guards in
place.

• Do not make any equipment repairs while the conveyor is running.

• Keep hands, hair, and clothing clear of any moving parts.

• Never attempt to clear load jams while equipment is running.

• Always use appropriate tools when making repairs or adjustments.

• Observe all warning labels and follow plant safety rules.

May 3, 2021
Preventive Maintenance

5.2.1 Cleaning and Inspection


Generally, there are many reasons for cleaning:

• To allow heat to dissipate (motors and gearboxes).

• To prevent wear on moving parts.

• To prevent binding.

• For proper operation.

• Operating personnel will most likely treat clean equipment with more care.

Any prescribed cleaning schedule should be modified as experience is gained. A


thorough inspection should be performed while cleaning problem areas.

The total value of inspection procedures is determined largely by the consistency


and regularity of the schedule. A definite interval of inspection must be established
and obeyed. This is usually easier to accomplish if a “round robin” system of
inspection is used. It is recommended that a general inspection that will ensure a
thorough examination of each component and assembly contained in the system be
done at least once for each thirty-day period of operation. Results of these general
inspections should be documented in the conveyor record of the unit inspected.

The probability of mechanical/electrical problems increase during periods of heavy


usage, so an additional inspection immediately before and after these periods is
recommended.

5.3.2 Weekly Tasks


Table 5-2 Preventive Maintenance Weekly Checklist

Weekly Checklist

Task Date: Checked By: Changes/Repairs Made:

Check with Conveyor Running


Visually inspect for wear, improper
alignment, or buildup of foreign
materials and repair/clean as required.
Visually inspect all motors.
While inspecting shoes being diverted,
listen for any abnormal clicking sounds
at each divert switch location and
UHMW transition. If a clicking sound
happens at random, then the guide pin
of a divert shoe may be faulty. If the
sound happens continually at the same
divert switch, the divert switch may be
out of adjustment or improperly
synchronized (control timing). If the
sound happens continually at the same
UHMW transition, the UHMW transition
may be out of adjustment or worn.
Calibrate the sorter to check for correct
divert operation.
Check the oil level in the chain
lubricator reservoir. Add oil to the full
level. If the oil level has not changed
since the last check, check to make
sure the pump is operating correctly.
Lack of chain lubrication will allow the
chain to stretch and greatly reduce the
life of the chain. Use only 20wt non-
detergent oil, such as Mobile DTE
Heavy Medium ISO 68.
Check the tension of the carrying
chains by viewing their location in the
windows on the catenary. The chain
tension is correct if the carrying chain
is visible in the window. Adjustments
are made by removing chain links in 5
in. (2 links) segments. See the Chain
Adjustment and the Catenary section
in the Service and Repair chapter.

Weekly Checklist

Task Date: Checked By: Changes/Repairs Made:

Check for uneven stretch of the


carrying chains by comparing their
locations in the windows on the
catenary. They should be at the same
position. Uneven chain stretch is a
result of insufficient lubrication. Make
sure the chains are being lubricated
properly.

Check with Conveyor Shut Down


Check the operation of the Emergency
Stop Pull Cord.
Check the operation of the Debris
Detection Device.
Check the operation of the Product jam
photo-eyes.

photo-eye, if installed
Verify the divert switch access covers
are in place.
Check the operation of the Proximity
sensor at the infeed and discharge
ends.
Check the operation of any application
or site-specific safety device.
Make sure the carrying chains are
properly lubricated and that oil
applicator brushes are not worn out.
The brushes will appear wet with oil
when properly lubricated, but do not
over lubricate. Use only 20 wt. non-
detergent oil.
Make sure the fasteners on all photo-
eyes and reflectors are securely
attached. Check for proper operation of
the air pressure switch. Inspect
tightness and physical condition of all
wire/conduit fittings.

Quarterly Checklist

Task Date: Checked By: Changes/Repairs Made:

Inspect all plastic parts for signs of


unusual wear and deterioration.
Replace any worn plastic parts.
Check tightness of reducer mounting
bolts and torque arm (if equipped). For
information on changing oil, oil type,
and operating oil level, see reducer
checks below.
Check that warning signs and labels
posted on or near the conveyor
equipment are not removed, painted
over, or altered at any time. All safety
devices, warning lights, and alarms
associated with the conveyor system
should be regularly tested for proper
operation and serviced as needed.

Perform the following checks to the reducer:

Check the oil level in the reducers. Use


only Mobile SHC 634 Synthetic gear
lubricant. Also make sure the breather
cap was installed during setup and
installation.
Note: For operating temperatures of
40°F and above, use Mobile SHC 634.
For operating temperatures of 40°F
and below, use Mobile SHC 630.
Ensure that the reducer shaft set
screws are properly torqued.
Check the torque arm fittings for
tightness, wear, and level.

Preventive Maintenance

Quarterly Checklist

Task Date: Checked By: Changes/Repairs Made:

Check the unit for oil leakage and find


the source of that leakage. The most
common leak points are pipe plugs, oil
seals, and the cover gasket. Rather
than waiting for parts during
unscheduled down time, you may wish
to order replacement parts when the
leaks are minor. Occasionally, the
breather plug is not properly located at
the highest point in the unit. Relocate
the breather plug, if required,
especially if the lubricant is foaming out
of the breather. Many leaks are caused
by overfilling the unit with oil. Check
the proper oil level. Do not let any leak
go unattended as loss of oil will
eventually cause a failure.
In accordance with the reducer
manufacturer’s recommendations,
change the reducer oil after an initial
operating period. Thereafter, change
the reducer oil on a regular schedule,
and follow the reducer manufacturer’s
recommendations.
For better drainage, drain the oil when
the unit is warm. Remove and examine
the magnetic drain plug for metal chips
and filings. An excessive amount of
metal filings signals internal problems.
Consult the manufacturer if you think
the amount is excessive. Small
amounts of metal filings are normal
and should simply be cleaned off prior
to reinstallation.
After draining, remove debris by
thoroughly flushing the inside of the
unit with clean oil. Remove and clean
the breather plug to ensure that the air
passage is clear. Reinstall the drain
plug and breather plug after using a
thread sealant.

7.1 Introduction

Before performing any maintenance or lubrication services, follow the


lockout/tagout procedure in the Safety Instructions chapter to ensure that the
equipment is safe to work on. Failure to follow this instruction may result in serious
personal injury and/or equipment damage.

When troubleshooting equipment problems, it is essential to completely understand


how the system functions during normal operation. Thoroughly review the
operational description, the circuit drawings, and the electrical diagrams sent with
your equipment. Once the system operation is understood, it is usually best to start
at the problem, and then work back to the source.

Procedures are discussed at length in the following pages; however, certain


guidelines should be followed for all troubleshooting problems:

1. Locate the problem.

2. Listen and observe.

3. Identify the problem as electrical or mechanical.

4. Determine symptoms through observations.

5. Think and act with caution and clear thinking.

6. List short- and long-term solutions.
