29. use excessive chain wear noise or shock loading For most horizontal and incline drives the chain should be installed with an amount of sag in the unloaded span amounting to about 2 percent of the sprocket center distance length Sag then becomes the measure of chain tension For example if the span length between the sprocket centerlines as shown below are 18 then the sag should be 3 8 if the belt is tensioned correctly To measure the actual amount of sag one side of the chain should be pulled up tight allowing all of the excess chain to accumulate in the opposite span A straight edge over the sprockets and a scale can be used to measure the sag The chain tension should be checked on a regular basis and adjustments made as necessary Span Length OAU GUST 2004 LNS asii a a PUBLICATION NO 864510 0012 Page 12 TURBO ECONOVEYOR PARTS AND SERVICE MANUAL TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE The following chart will show some problems and their probable causes and possible solutions PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE POSSIBLE SOLUTION Conveyor has 1 Chip jam Let torque limiter slip for ten to fifteen seconds this will often clear jam Do not let torque limiter clutch slip for extended period of time If jam does not clear with above procedure run Stalled and the torque limiter Slips conveyor in reverse no more than 4 to 6 inches Start conveyor in proper direction to see if jam has cleared If jam has not cleared
