Introduction
The Role of a King Cobra Plus™ Shaker
The NOV Brandt King Cobra Plus Shaker is a fine screen shaker with several motor/starter options
producing either linear or tuned elliptical motion. The shaker is almost always located at the flow
line unless it is preceded by a “scalping” or gumbo separator. The King Cobra Plus Shaker
removes a large percentage of drill cuttings before the mud is circulated through the surface mud
system, leading to improved performance of downstream solids control equipment.
The King Cobra Plus Shaker is designed to do two primary jobs:
 separate drilled solids from the mud
 transport the solids rapidly and efficiently off the screens.
How the King Cobra Plus Shaker Works

The three features key to the operation of the King Cobra Plus Shaker are the basket and angle
adjustment system, the vibrator system, and the screen locking system. These systems work with
the uniquely designed shaker basket to give the highest fluid throughput and driest solids in a
compact and reliable shaker.
King Cobra Plus Basket and Pivot System

The basket’s patented screen configuration is a major advance over previously available shakers.
During normal operation, with the basket in the neutral position, the first screen is evenly flooded
with 1 to 2 in. (25 to 51 mm) of mud. The pool of mud creates an even hydrostatic head on the
screen surface that increases the amount of mud that can pass through the first three screens.
(See Figure 2-1.)

Revision 2 2: Product Information

In traditional shakers, with all screens in the same plane, the operator must raise the basket to
create a liquid pool. The resulting pool is wedge shaped and can cause a slow-moving solids bed
to form. (See Figure 2-2.) The material in the slow-moving solids bed is very slow to convey and is
ground into fine solids, which negatively affects the mud system. Screen life is also jeopardized
due to slow-moving solids bed formation. Because the first screen of the King Cobra Plus Shaker
is flooded more evenly and shallowly, a slow-moving solids bed does not form, thus increasing
screen life and optimizing shaker performance.

The design of the King Cobra Plus basket also includes a drying screen. During normal operation
the liquid pool extends to the end of the third screen, and the fourth screen is used to remove all
excess liquid from the screened particles (dry the cuttings). During flow surges or changes in flow
conditions, liquid can run off the end of the third screen and onto the fourth screen. Fluid on the
fourth screen flows back to the baffle plate and builds up a second pool, preventing the loss of any
whole mud off the end of the shaker. (See Figure 2-3.)

Figure 2-3. King Cobra Plus Shaker under upset operating conditions
The King Cobra Plus Shaker has a basket angle adjustment system that allows the basket to be
tilted upward by as much as 2° and downward by as much as 3°. During unusually heavy flow
conditions the basket can be pivoted upward to increase the depth of the pool. This deeper pool
allows the shaker to handle the unusual flow conditions without a loss of whole mud off the end of
the shaker.

Sticky clays and gumbo often do not convey upward and may not convey horizontally with a linear
motion shaker. When sticky clays or gumbo are encountered, the basket can be tilted downward to
make sure that the material conveys. The operator can adjust the basket angle while the unit is
running.
You may find that switching from linear motion to tuned elliptical motion results in improved
conveyance of sticky clays and gumbo.
Vibrator System
The vibrator system includes the two canister type vibrator motors, a motor mounting motion tube,
and a plate. Each vibrator motor contains eccentric weights that generate a circular shaking force
when rotated. During operation the two motors rotate in opposite directions, creating either a net
linear or a net elliptical shaking force on the basket. This shaking force is directed through the
center of mass of the basket, resulting in equal motion along the entire length of the screening
surface. The motion conveys the solids along the screen, even upward, and off the discharge end
of the shaker. The basket motion has been carefully designed to give the unit optimum
performance over a wide range of drilling conditions.
The angle of the basket’s vibratory motion relative to a line perpendicular to the screen surface is
called the angle of attack (conveyance angle). The angle of the basket’s motion relative to a line
parallel to the screen surface is called the conductance angle. The King Cobra Plus Shaker uses a
40° conveyance angle and a 50° conductance angle. See Figure 2-4 for a diagram of these
angles.

Electrical Options
The King Cobra Plus Shaker has several electrical options available for standard voltages and
frequencies. These options can be grouped into two catagories:
 Standard electrical option
 Dual Motion electrical option
Standard Electrical Option
The standard King Cobra Plus Shaker electrical system just has a START and STOP button on the
front of an electrical enclosure.
Dual Motion Electrical Option

The Dual Motion electrical option has a selector switch to change from linear to tuned elliptical
motion. You may find that switching from linear motion to tuned elliptical motion results in improved
conveyance of sticky clays and gumbo.
Screen Wedge System

The King Cobra Plus Shaker comes equipped with the screen wedge system, a simple screen
hold-down mechanism. Tighten the screen wedge by using a non-sparking hammer or by prying
the wedge into place. (See Figure 2-5.) The screen wedge’s mounted, pre-tensioned screens
eliminate the need for a screen-tensioning system. Two different screen wedges are available; a
black wedge for BHX screens and a yellow wedge for VNM screens. If both types of screen are to
be used, complete sets of both wedges are required.

Introduced in 2008, VNM screens have limited market availability.

Installation
Inspection
Prior to setting up and operating a new King Cobra Plus Shaker, inspect the goods as received
from the shipping company. A claim for damage or loss should be reported immediately to the
carrier and to NOV Brandt. Eight screen wedges, 24 screen crown rubbers and a wedge
installation/removal tool ship in a separate box located in the backtank of the unit. Check the bill of
lading for any separately shipped items, including manuals and CDs.
Once it is confirmed the order has been received complete in undamaged condition, installation of
the King Cobra Plus Shaker may begin.
Lifting and Handling Procedure

Shale Shaker Assembly
The King Cobra shaker can be lifted with the use of a properly rated forklift, or by utilizing the four
designated lift points on the skid. These lift points can be fitted with properly rated lifting shackles
and slings in order to safely handle the unit.
Never attempt to lift a King Cobra shaker by attaching shackles or slings to anything
other than the designated lift points.
Lifting equipment needs to be rated to handle the dead weight of the shaker, 5300 lbs (2404 kg),
plus a safety factor. Always utilize certified lifting equipment and follow manufacturers'
recommended practices.
Basket Assembly
Figure 3-1. Lifting points
The King Cobra basket assembly, consisting of the basket and drive motors, can be lifted by either
wrapping soft slings around the motor tube, below the motor base plate; or by connecting properly
rated lifting eyebolts and slings to the four basket spring mounts.
The former method is only recommended for short, close proximity lifts in which a guide line is
used to continuously control the load; for example when installing a basket into a skid or support
structure. Always utilize the latter four-point method for major lifting operations.

Installation
The following information provides the proper installation procedures for efficient and safe
operation. Please follow the recommendations closely. As always, adequate working space,
walkways, and handrails should be considered.
Throughout this manual, the “back” of the King Cobra Plus Shaker is the feed tank end,
and the “front” is the end where the dried solids fall off. Left and right are determined by
looking at the unit from the front.
Location and Suppor t

The King Cobra Plus Shaker is shipped assembled on a box type skid with an integral sump and
backtank. Although most of the basket vibration will not be transmitted through the coil spring and
into the skid, it is recommended to skip weld or bolt the skid to the support structure on which it is
placed. The support structure must be designed to support the shaker’s dead weight of 5500 lb
(2495 kg), plus a fluid load of 500 lb (227 kg) for a total of 6000 lb (2722kg) per unit.
Ensure the skid is grounded before welding. Failure to do so can result in electrical
system damage.
The operator needs access to both sides of the unit to change the screens. Allow at least 24 in.
(0.6 m) of free space around the unit. Catwalks or walkways around the entire unit are very
important, because they increase the chances of proper maintenance.
Minimum access distance recommended is sufficient for maintenance and operation of the
unit. User should check local regulations to ensure that additional space is not required.
Surfaces of the equipment are slippery. Use caution when working on or around to avoid
falling.
Some other guidelines for locating and installing the shaker include:
 The unit(s) must be level in both directions to ensure even fluid distribution.
 Do not weld or attach discharge troughs to the vibrating basket.
 Do not install the solids slide above the bottom of the front shaker skid cutout.
Electrical Options
Several electrical options available for the King Cobra Plus Shaker are listed in the table below.
The list of parts in the kits and the wiring diagrams are shown in Chapter 7.

Electrical Connections
Carefully proceed through this list to assure proper and safe operation of the unit(s). As with any
electrical equipment, all electrical work should be performed by a qualified electrician. (See Figure
3-4.)
Follow all LOCKOUT/TAGOUT procedures when making electrical connections.
1. Determine the rig voltage supplied to the unit. Ensure that the motor operating voltage
matches.
2. LOCKOUT/TAGOUT power from the power supply cable that will be connected to the unit.
3. Install the power supply cable to the motor starter. (See Figure 3-4 for the starter wiring
diagram.) Connect power to the starter by connecting the incoming power to L1, L2 and L3
of the contactor. Connect the incoming ground to a grounding post inside the enclosure.
Wires in the motor junction box must not be allowed to touch the inside of the junction box.
Use the foam cushions supplied with the motor to protect the wires.
4. Remove the weight covers from one side of the vibrator motors.
5. Turn on the power supply to the unit.
6. Check the motor rotation direction of the King Cobra Plus Shaker as follows:
a. Turn the motion selector switch to Elliptical.
b. Bump start the motors by pushing the START button and quickly pushing the STOP
button. Make sure both weights follow the rotation arrows and the top motor is rotating
toward the front (discharge) end of the shaker. If so, go to Step 7.
c. If both motors are rotating incorrectly, switch the positions of any two of the wires L1, L2
and L3. Bump start the motors again to confirm correct rotation direction and go to
Step 7.
d. If one motor is rotating correctly and the other motor is rotating incorrectly, switch the
positions of any two of the wires T1, T2 or T3 at the overload relay for the motor with the
incorrect rotation. Bump start the motors again to confirm correct rotation direction.
Operation with both motors turning in the same direction results in very poor shaker
performance.
7. Replace the motor weight covers. Bolt down the motor junction box covers and the starter
enclosure cover.
8. Start the unit and check for proper vibration.
There should not be any side-to-side motion of the basket. Check side-to-side motion by placing a
thumb and forefinger on either side of the upper basket rail. The motion of the basket should cause
the rail to slip between the thumb and fingers without touching the fingers.
If side-to-side motion does occur:
1. Check that the shaker is level.
2. Check that the counter weights are set identically.

Flow Line Connection

The flow line should connect near the bottom and center of the backtank. This minimizes settling
of solids. “Over the top” connection of the flow line to the backtank is discouraged. If necessary,
the pipe must be inserted at least two-thirds to the bottom of the backtank to prevent solids
buildup. Solids buildup in the backtank results in an undesired reduction in the volume of the
backtank and blockage of the dump valve. The drop or slope of the flow line should be a minimum
of 1:12, or 1 ft (0.3 m) of drop for each 12 ft (3.7 m) of the flow line.
The preferred hookup between multiple shakers, if not utilizing an I.D.S. (Integrated Distribution
System), is to use “Y” or “T” connections between the shakers. Use valves to regulate flow to each
shaker. This way, one shaker can still function while repairing or changing a screen on the other
shaker. For controlling flow, knife gate valves are preferred over butterfly valves.
www.nov.com/brandt
Page 20 of 72
Basket Angle Adjustment Installation

You must connect an air supply of at least 60 psi to the air filter/regulator. Adjust the regulator on
the shaker to 60 psi, which should be sufficient for most operations. If you encounter extreme
loading during operation and the basket fails to lift as desired, you may increase the air pressure at
the regulator to a maximum of 100 psi.
Ensure that all air fittings are tight and do not leak. Check for leaks by spraying water or WD-40®
on the fittings and looking for air bubbles. Leaks cause the basket to drift toward a fully uphill angle
after you have set the desired position. A shaker without air leaks should hold its desired position
without adjustment for several days.
Screen Installation
Screen installation requires minimal time or effort. However, if you do not follow these basic steps,
the result may be poor screen life and solids bypassing into the active system.
1. If mud is circulating, open the backtank bypass valve or divert mud to the other shaker.
2. Wash down the screens while the shaker is running.
3. Shut down the shaker.
4. Remove the screen wedge on each side of the basket for the screen being removed. Each
pre-tensioned screen on the King Cobra Plus Shaker may be removed individually without
removing the others.
5. Place screen wedges outside the basket in a safe place so they cannot fall into the sump of
the shaker or into the mud tanks.
6. Remove the screen panel.
Wash down the screen support area prior to installing a new screen.
7. Replace worn or missing screen seals, screen supports, and crown rubbers. Screen seals
must be replaced in pairs and crown rubbers in sets.
Do not operate the unit without all screen seals and crown rubbers in place. See section
titled "Replacing Seal Strips and Crown Rubbers" on page 32.
8. Carefully lay in the new pre-tensioned screen panel.

9. Install the screen wedges in the designated slots on each side of the basket.
10. Check to see that the screen is straight across the basket and is engaging the retainer pins.
If your screens do not have holes to accommodate the retainer pins, contact your NOV
Brandt representative for assistance in retrofitting your screens. To locate the NOV Brandt
office nearest you, see Chapter 8, titled "Worldwide Locations".
11. Tighten the screen wedges using a non-sparking hammer or pry bar.
12. Check that screen wedges are tightly secured.

Storage
Store the King Cobra Plus Shaker in a cool, dry place with the ability to test the unit for three hours
once a month.
During Storage
If the King Cobra Plus Shaker is to be stored after receipt instead of being immediately installed
and operated, the following steps should be taken to ensure the unit does not degrade during
storage.
When stored in a cool, dry location with adequate power:
1. Keep shipping bolts on the shaker at all times while in storage, if movement is possible. The
only exception is when the shaker is tested once a month. After the test or before shipment,
replace the shipping bolts. (See Figure 3-2 on page 16).
2. Test the operation of the shaker once a month. This requires connecting power to the
shaker, removing the shipping bolts, and running the shaker for three hours.
3. Open the starter enclosure cover and spray the components with a water displacing solvent
(for example, WD-40®). Allow the solvent to dry, and then close the starter cover tightly.
Keep all other connections intact. Use desiccant bags in starter and junction box in order to
minimize moisture buildup.
4. Replace the cable with a water-resistant material or short piece of cable if the power source
cable is removed from the starter enclosure coupling. The starter enclosure must be sealed
at all times. Unused cable entries should be plugged to prevent moisture buildup.
When stored outside or with inadequate power:
1. Cover the shaker with a protective tarp if possible.
2. Keep shipping bolts on the shaker at all times while in storage.
3. Replace the cable with a water-resistant material or short piece of cable if the power source
cable is removed from the starter enclosure coupling. The starter enclosure must be sealed
at all times.
4. Remove the starter enclosure cover and spray the components with a water displacing
solvent (for example, WD-40®) once a month. Allow solvent to dry then put the starter cover
back on tightly. Keep all other connections intact. Use desiccant bags in starter and junction
box in order to minimize moisture buildup.

Retur ning to Ser vice

Before returning the shaker to service after three or more months of storage, complete the
following steps:
1. Remove the motor covers and rotate the shafts by hand.
2. Continue to rotate the motor shaft while installing 5.7 grams (4 shots from a 400 gram
grease gun) of Kluber Isoflex® Topas NB52 or NB152 grease into each bearing.
3. Remove the shipping bolts and connect power to the unit.
4. Turn on the power supply to the unit.
5. Check the motor rotation direction of the King Cobra Plus Shaker as follows:
a. Turn the motion selector switch to Elliptical.
b. Bump start the motors by pushing the START button and quickly pushing the STOP
button. Make sure both weights follow the rotation arrows and the top motor is rotating
toward the front (discharge) end of the shaker. If so, go to Step 6.
c. If both motors are rotating incorrectly, switch the positions of any two of the wires L1, L2
and L3. Bump start the motors again to confirm correct rotation direction and go to
Step 6.
d. If one motor is rotating correctly and the other motor is rotating incorrectly, switch the
positions of any two of the wires T1, T2 or T3 at the overload relay for the motor with the
incorrect rotation. Bump start the motors again to confirm correct rotation direction.
Operation with both motors turning in the same direction results in very poor shaker
performance.
6. Run shaker for three hours and monitor motor bearing temperatures. At startup the motors
can run very hot, but after approximately three hours they should stabilize between 160°F
(71°C) and 180°F (82°C).

General Recommendations
 Use the same mesh screen on all four panel sections. The cut point is normally determined
by the coarsest mesh screen. If a coarser mesh screen is installed for any reason, it should
be installed at the discharge end.
 Use finer mesh screens, rather than coarse mesh screens, where gumbo or sticky clays are
encountered. Finer mesh screens provide a much smoother and wetter surface than coarse
mesh. Gumbo and clay tend to convey better on smoother wetter surfaces and using finer
screens often provides an immediate solution to conveying problems.
 Experiment with the basket angle to determine the best setting because conveyance rates
vary with drilling rates and hole conditions.
 Use the weir diverter plates in the backtank to balance the flow between two or more
shakers hooked to a common flow line. The weir diverter plates can also be used to change
the flow of the liquid onto the screen surface. Adjust the weir plates to get a less curved
horseshoe to improve overall shaker performance.
 If the solids being discarded are channeling to one side of the end screen, the shaker may
be out of level. Correct this situation by shimming the corners of the shaker skid until it is
level.
 Close the backtank bypass valve during normal operation. After opening and closing the
valve, check to make sure that the valve is fully seated. Gravel or hard cuttings may prevent
the bypass valve from providing a positive seal.
 Add replacement or makeup water while drilling as required. Adding the water to the feed
tank generally reduces the mud viscosity and allows more efficient screening.
 Operate the King Cobra Plus screens wet. Running with dry screens may result in
premature screen failure. Lower the basket angle or install finer mesh screens to extend the
liquid pool. The end of the pool should be on the third screen.
 Do not allow substantial amounts of mud to build up inside the vibrating basket. This may
affect the unit’s performance. A buildup of solids on or around the motors may cause
overheating.
 Check basket springs for bottoming-out. Worn or weak springs may allow the vibrating
basket to fully collapse the springs under heavy mud loads. This causes unusual vibration
patterns and damage to the unit. Replace springs in pairs, front or rear pair, or all four
springs immediately. Slow bouncing or rocking movements on the basket may indicate
spring problems.
 Inspect and replace worn or missing wear strips and crown rubbers. The wear strips provide
a positive seal around the screen panel. Worn or missing seals result in solids bypassing
into the active system. Worn crown rubbers reduce screen panel support, causing poor
conveyance throughout.
 Wash down screens before shutting down the unit for any length of time or before storing the
screens.
 Do not walk or lay tools on the screens.

Operation
Start Up and Operation

The following sections provide instructions for normal operation. Before operating the unit(s) make
sure that you performed all steps in section titled "Installation" on page 17. The unit is factory set to
provide a g-force suitable for most drilling applications. Once the unit has been installed, the only
changes or adjustments that should be made are screen mesh and basket angle. Screen selection
depends upon your specified drilling parameters, such as circulating volume, mud viscosity,
penetration rate, etc.
Basket movement is higher during start up and shut down than under normal
running conditions. Keep body parts away from basket and spring pinch points
during these periods.
Basket Angle
The pivoting system is used to change the angle of the screening surfaces relative to the neutral
position. (See Figure 4-1.)
Figure 4-1. Angle adjustment system
It is not necessary to shut down the shaker before changing the basket angle.
To change the basket angle, press and hold either the UP or DOWN buttons until the basket is at
the desired position. There may be some temporary bouncing after moving the basket, but this is
normal and does not affect shaker performance.
For normal drilling conditions the unit should be operated with the basket tilted between 2° uphill
and 2° downhill so the end of the liquid pool is near the discharge end of the third screen.
www.nov.com/brandt
Revision 2 4: Operation
Page 26 of 72
Increasing the basket angle moves the end of the liquid pool toward the back of the basket, and
allows the shaker to handle higher flow rates and/or produce drier cuttings.
The disadvantage of running the basket steeply uphill is the reduced conveyance and a thicker
solids bed. A thicker solids bed causes solids to be ground into smaller pieces, wears out screens
faster, and may increase the amount of fine solids returned to the active mud system.
Cuttings are generally dry enough for most applications when the end of the liquid pool is
near the end of the third screen.
When gumbo or sticky clays are encountered it may be necessary to lower the basket angle to get
the solids to convey properly. Although some baskets can be lowered to as much as 3° downhill,
running the shaker at a lower angle than necessary requires use of coarser screens to prevent
excess drilling fluid loss.
To move the basket to the maximum downhill position, press and hold the Down button until the
rocker arm firmly contacts the bumper. A rocker arm that only lightly touches the bumper may
experience higher than normal vibrations, which does not affect shaker performance but does
increase the noise level.
Screen Blinding
If the screen’s openings plug (blind) with sand, there are several methods by which the screen
may be unplugged. If the screens are in the unit, rub the screens in a circular motion with a cloth
rag or cloth gloves. Or, with the screen removed, you may try blowing out the solids with
high-pressure air or water from the bottom.
Never use a wire or stiff fiber brush on the screens.
Changing to a finer mesh screen may cause the near size sand that is blinding the screens to be
removed and discarded. Changing to a larger mesh screen may solve the blinding problem, but
increases the amount of solids returned to the active system.
Often it is necessary to experiment with several mesh sizes to minimize blinding while
drilling through unconsolidated sand formations. As a general rule, try finer screens first.
Salt-water muds sometimes cause calcium deposits to coat the wires in the screen. As the layer of
calcium increases in thickness around the wires, the openings become plugged off. This usually
results in flooding. Steam cleaning usually removes the calcium deposits.

Maintenance & Repair
Maintenance
The King Cobra Plus Shaker requires very little maintenance. However, there are several
maintenance checks that, if done on a regular basis, provide extended service and performance.
Lubrication
Motor
Lubricate each bearing on the motors once every operating month (750 hours) per the following
instructions. Use only Kluber Isoflex® Topas NB52 grease (P/N 46AS) for operation in cold
ambient temperatures of -20F to +50F (-29C to +10C). You may use either NB52 or NB152 for
ambient temperatures of 50F to 100F (10C to 38C). For hot ambient temperatures above
100F (38C), you must use Isoflex Topas NB152 grease (P/N 46AY).
Using any grease other than Kluber Isoflex® Topas will void the motor warranty.
Do not mix Isoflex grease with any other grease.
1. Clean vibrator case around grease plug with a clean shop towel.
2. Remove grease plug from vibrator housing.
3. Install 1/8 in. NPT grease fitting (P/N 33B) into the vibrator housing. Always use a new
grease fitting. Even small amounts of another grease may cause a negative reaction with
the Isoflex grease.
4. Install 5.7 grams (0.2 oz) of grease with a grease gun into each grease fitting. 5.7 grams
equals 4 shots from a 400 gram grease gun.
5. Replace the grease fitting with the grease plug.
Do not leave the grease fitting(s) in the vibrator housing.
6. Do not lubricate for another operating month. Too much grease will ruin the motor and void
the warranty.
If the motor has been running and has not been lubricated for more than three months, put
20 shots in each bearing and then four additional shots each month per the above instructions.
Ordering Lubrication Kits

Follow the guidelines below to ensure that you order the proper lubrication kit.
Plastic laminated lubrication instructions are available free of charge for attachment to each
shaker. Request drawing PI7208.

straight, but should be bent upward at each bolt hole.
4. Tighten the seal from the center outward, alternating from side to side. Overtightening the
seal causes deformation and forms a gap between the frame and the seal, which can lead to
screw installation problems or leakage.
To replace crown rubbers:
1. Remove the crown rubbers.
2. Clean the metal support thoroughly.
3. Replace with new crown rubbers.

Martin Engineering M3603-12/01 1 MARTIN® CDX Electric Vibrators

Introduction
Materials required In addition to metric hand tools, the following materials are required to install
this equipment:
• Rigid beam or mounting plate
• BBAC Cable Kit, P/N 32271, or equivalent
(Mount Kit for Electric Vibrators, P/N 32401-XX includes W-Beam Mount,
mounting hardware, and BBAC Safety Cable Kit.)
Storage Store vibrator in an ambient temperature not less than 41°F (5°C) with a
relative humidity not more than 60%. If the vibrator has been stored for 2 or
more years, remove bearings, wash them, and repack them with new grease
(see “Lubricating Vibrator”).

Before Installing Vibrator
Before Installation
IMPORTANT
The delivery service is responsible for damage occurring in
transit. Martin Engineering CANNOT enter claims for
damages. Contact your transportation agent for more
information.
1. Inspect shipping container for damage. If damage has occurred, report
damage to delivery service and fill out delivery service’s claim form.
2. Remove vibrator from shipping container.
3. If anything is missing, contact Martin Engineering or a representative.
! WARNING
Turn off and lock out/tag out all energy sources.
4. Before installing vibrator, turn off and lock out/tag out all energy sources
to mounting structure according to ANSI standards (see “References”).
! WARNING
Gas level or dust content must be tested before using a cutting
torch or welding. Using a cutting torch or welding in an area
with gas or dust may cause an explosion.
5. If using a cutting torch or welding, test atmosphere for gas level or dust
content.
6. Make sure mounting surface is strong and flat, 0.010 in. (0.25 mm) across
vibrator feet. (This will minimize internal stress to vibrator casting when
tightening mount bolts. Welding in the area of the mounting surface could
affect flatness.)
7. Make sure mounting surface and vibrator are clean and free of debris,
paint, and oxidation.

Installing Vibrator
Installation
IMPORTANT
Mounting vibrator Read entire section before beginning work. This manual
onto structure provides instructions for installations onto steel bins and
hoppers only. For other installations, call Martin Engineering
or a representative.
! CAUTION
If installation instructions are not followed, structure and
vibrator can be damaged. Abusing or dropping vibrator will
accelerate wear and cause bearing damage.
1. See Figure 1. Locate vibrator in lower 1/4 to 1/3 of structure slope length.
If second vibrator is required, mount 180° from first vibrator and halfway
up slope.
Figure 1. Locating Vibrator on Hoppers
! CAUTION
Never weld structure with vibrator mounted and wired.
Welding may cause damage to motor windings and bearings.
IMPORTANT
The object of rotary vibration on bins, hoppers, and chutes is
to transmit vibration through the wall into the product
contained inside. If structure is not made rigid, vibrator may
draw high amperage and move material less efficiently.
Make sure structure is free of paint before mounting vibrator.
2. If using customer-supplied mounting plate to mount vibrator onto
structure, do the following:
a. Make sure plate is at least the size of vibrator base.
b. Locate plate so that vibrator can be positioned as shown in Figure 2.
c. Weld mounting plate onto structure.
Installation
3. If using MARTIN W-Beam Mount (or equivalent) or T-beam to mount
vibrator onto structure (see Figure 2), do the following:
a. Locate beam so that vibrator can be positioned as shown in Figure 2.
b. Extend beam at least 3/4 the length of sloped wall. Cut off end(s) of
beam if necessary to fit on structure.
c. Skip-weld beam in place: Weld 3 in. (76 mm), then skip 2 in. (51 mm).
Repeat for entire perimeter of beam. Do not weld last 1 in. (25 mm) of
either end of beam or any corner.
d. Install vibrator onto W-beam mount or ECF bracket.

care not to pinch the o-ring.
! CAUTION
Installing Install overload protection for vibrator. If vibrator is not
overload, short- protected from overload, vibrator can be damaged and
circuit, and warranty will be void. Determine size of overload protection
ground-fault according to NEC Article 430, and have it installed by a
protection qualified electrician only.
1. Determine overload, short-circuit, and ground-fault protection according
to NEC Article 430.
2. Have qualified electrician install overload, short-circuit, and ground-fault
protection.
3. If overload trips during operation, fix problem before resetting.

Installation
! CAUTION
For equipment using two vibrators, the two vibrators must be
electrically interlocked. If using a single contactor, each
vibrator must be provided with separate overload protection.
The vibrator control circuit must be arranged so that if one
vibrator becomes de-energized, the other vibrator will
automatically and immediately become de-energized. Failure
to properly interlock vibrators could result in damage to
equipment if one vibrator fails.
4. If using two vibrators, interlock the two vibrators and install separate
overload protection for each.

IMPORTANT
Read entire section before beginning work.
Checking shaft 1. Remove one weight cover.
rotation
! WARNING
Before checking shaft rotation, make sure area is known to be
non-hazardous.
! CAUTION
DO NOT run vibrator with eccentric weights removed.
Running vibrator with eccentric weights removed will
damage bearings.
! WARNING
When checking shaft rotation with weight cover removed,
keep hands away from swinging weights. Weights can crush
fingers.
2. Start vibrator(s) only for a few seconds, then stop.
3. Observe direction of vibrator rotation. If vibrator is not rotating in correct
direction, lock out/tag out energy source and reverse rotation. To reverse
rotation of three-phase vibrator, reverse any two of the three power supply
wires.
4. Replace weight cover, taking care not to pinch o-ring.

NOTE
After Installation
Adjusting All Vibrators have one set of eccentric weights on each end of
eccentric weights shaft. Eccentric weights are set at 50% at factory. See Figure
10.
The percentage increments on the weight adjustment disks are
percentages of the total force pounds listed on the nameplate.
For example, if the nameplate shows 8340 lb, setting the
weights to 50% would produce 4170 pounds of force.
IMPORTANT
For the most efficient operation, vibrator eccentric weights
should be adjusted to the lowest force setting required to move
the material. This will increase vibrator life and reduce energy
costs.
! WARNING
Before adjusting eccentric weights, turn off and lock out/tag
out energy source to vibrator.
1. Turn off and lock out/tag out energy source to vibrator according to ANSI
standards (see “References”).
2. Remove weight cover.
3. Loosen nut or screw (A, Figure 9) so adjustable weight (B) will rotate
around shaft (C).

NOTE
The fixed weight is attached to the shaft. The adjustable
weight rotates around the shaft. The weight adjustment disk
will be attached to either the fixed or the adjustable weight.
4. See Figure 10. Rotate adjustable eccentric weight to proper setting. To
produce more force, move weight to higher setting (i.e., higher number).
When set, tighten cap screw or nut according to Table II.

5. Check o-rings for damage. Replace if damaged.
! CAUTION
Do not operate vibrator with weight covers removed. Dust
accumulating around vibrator shaft could cause unit to fail.
6. Replace weight covers.
! CAUTION
Adjust both sets of eccentric weights to same setting number
(mirror images), or force output will be uneven and damage
vibrator.
7. Repeat steps 2 through 5 for second set of weights. Set both sets of
weights to same setting number so they are mirror images, as shown in
Figure 12.

After Installation
Initial start-up/ 1. Close power supply disconnect switch and allow vibrator(s) to operate.
checking line 2. If vibrator makes unusual or excessive noise, make sure mounting bolts
current are tight and mount welds are not damaged.
! WARNING
Vibrator may produce loud noise during operation when
mounted on structure. See OSHA 1910.95 for guidelines. If
required, wear ear protection to avoid impairment or loss of
hearing.
3. Check decibel level of vibrator noise during operation. See OSHA
1910.95 to determine whether noise exceeds safe limits. If required, wear
ear protection to avoid impairment or loss of hearing.
! CAUTION
If vibrator is operated continuously with line current above
nameplate rating, vibrator can be damaged.
4. After a few hours of operation, check each line current. If reading is
higher than nameplate rating, check for correct phase voltage ensuring
that it is correct and balanced. If phase voltages are correct (± 10% of
nameplate rating) and balanced, recheck wiring, ensure that mounting
bolts are correctly installed, or contact Martin Engineering for assistance.
After making adjustments, check line current again to ensure line current
does not exceed nameplate rating.
5. After first 8 hours of use and periodically thereafter, check mounting bolt
torque and tighten if necessary.
! CAUTION
Variable All vibrators can be supplied with a pulse-width modulated
frequency inverter variable frequency inverter. NEVER operate the vibrator at a
frequency higher than that specified on the nameplate.
Damage to vibrator can result.
Do not operate vibrator at frequency higher than specified on nameplate.

Throughout frequency range, verify that each line current does not exceed
current rating on nameplate. If reading is higher than nameplate, consult
inverter manual. If necessary, adjust inverter. After making adjustment, check
line current again to ensure line current does not exceed nameplate rating.

Maintenance Maintenance
Lubricating
vibrator IMPORTANT
Read entire section before beginning work. Allow vibrator to
cool to ambient temperature before working on it.
NOTE
All vibrators are lubricated at the factory.
! CAUTION
Use only prescribed grease in vibrator. If a different grease is
used, vibrator can be damaged and warranty will be void.
Use only prescribed amount of grease to lubricate vibrator.
Too much grease will cause bearings to overheat and result in
premature bearing failure.
1. Lubricate the vibrator with Kluber Isoflex Topas NB 52 grease according
to Table III.
Table III. Lubrication Schedule
