1. Installation preparations

1.1. General preparations


Ensure that the dimensions of the installation site and the positions of
connections correspond with the information given in the drawings.
Refer to the Mechanical Drawings and any site-specific installation
drawings.
NOTE! Check that the required service areas, as shown in the installation
drawings in the Mechanical Drawings, comply with the installation site.
Check that the installation site is accessible for spare part deliveries.
Check that the equipment meets the local legislation demands
regarding personnel safety, emissions or other legal aspects. In case of
doubt, please consult local authorities or local authorized personnel.
It is possible to prepare parts of the installation before the main
installation of the cone crusher, for example placement, foundation and
electricity.
If the site does not meet all of the specifications given in this manual,
please contact Sandvik.
Use the check list in section Installation preparations checklist on page
11 as a guide and for documenting the installation procedure.

1.2. Machine access


Every machine requires access for personnel who carry out inspections
and/or maintenance work. Suitable access platforms and guard rails
must be installed. Walkways, stairs and ladders must be designed in
accordance with applicable regulations. Also make sure that they are
not overloaded by spillage and spare parts.
These parts are not included in the crusher’s standard specification. For
advice, contact Sandvik.
Areas where access is required are indicated on installations drawings,
see the Mechanical drawings.

1.3. Crusher capacity and performance


A cone crusher is normally a component in a crushing and screening
process. The performance of the crusher is dependent on the operation
and design of the whole process including conveyors, feeders, feed
hoppers, motors, site design and structure, etc. The following factors
also have an effect on the capacity and performance of a cone crusher:

• Choice of crushing chamber


• Choice of eccentric throw
• Feed size distribution and moisture
• Feed rate
• Discharge system design
Copyright © Sandvik
10 S 223.1048 - 2 en-US 18/06/2015 13:08:06
1. Installation preparations

• Screening capacity
• Automation controls (options), both ASRi and main control system for
the crushing plant
The following factors are very likely to lower the capacity and
performance of a cone crusher:

• Adhesive or moist process material


• Excessive amount of fines (> 20% of process material smaller than
CSS value)
• Very tough process materials
• Uneven distribution in the crushing chamber
• Not choke feeding the crusher
• Insufficient feed control
• Incorrect feeding and screening arrangement
• Incorrect discharge design
• Motor power less than recommended

1. Installation preparations

1.5. Placement
Sandvik recommends:

• marking with paint the limits of service areas in the vicinity of the
crusher and the oil tank unit.
• fencing in the site to avoid damage and unauthorized operation, if
applicable.
Make sure that there is easy access to the crusher. A well planned
installation will result in better overall performance of the cone crusher,
easier service, and lower down-time.
NOTE! The oil tank unit can be installed on any side of the crusher. This is
important to decide before the foundation is designed. Refer to the
installation drawings in the Mechanical Drawings.
Place the tank unit as close to the cone crusher as possible.
Excessively long oil lines as well as many or sharp bends will increase
the flow friction and lower the performance.
Place the tank unit below the level of the cone crusher. Return oil must
run back to the oil tank unit and be pumped to the cone crusher.
Make sure that there is sufficient room to drain out all oil.
Make sure there is access to a lifting device meeting the requirements
stated in chapter Transport handling on page 33.
Consider additional clearance for the feed arrangement (for example
chute, feeder or other equipment).
Consider additional clearance for the discharge arrangement, see
section Discharge arrangement on page 24.
Consider the placement of the motor for a crusher with V-belts. There
are several possible installation arrangements for a crusher with V-belt
drive. If the optional Sandvik motor bracket is used, ensure that the
motor is correctly positioned and aligned.

1.5.1. Height differentiation in the return line


For the oil to flow freely in the return line there must be a minimum
height difference between crusher and oil tank. The required height
difference depends on the pressure build-up created by the piping and
bends.
The tables below show how to calculate the minimum height difference.

Minimum height difference in mm 1500 cSt (cold start), DN 100 new/clean


stainless steel pipes
Specified flow: 120 lit/min
Per meter pipe 130 mm
90° bend R=1×D 200 mm
90° bend R=2×D 110 mm
90° sharp turn 910 mm

Copyright © Sandvik
12 S 223.1048 - 2 en-US 18/06/2015 13:08:06
1. Installation preparations

Minimum height difference in " 1500 cSt (cold start), 4" new/clean stainless steel
pipes
Specified flow: 31.7 US gal/min
Per foot pipe 1.56"
90° bend R=1×D 7.87"
90° bend R=2×D 4.33"
90° sharp turn 35.83"

NOTE! The minimum height difference is directly proportional to oil viscosity, so


at 750 cSt viscosity the numbers in the table above should be reduced
by 50%.
NOTE! Place bends as far from the crusher as possible since they create a
relatively high pressure drop.

Example ISO units:


The specified flow is 120 l/min, and the return line consists of:

15 meters DN 100 piping 15 × 130 = 1950 mm


4 × 90° bends R=1×D 4 × 200 = + 800 mm
1 × 90° sharp turn 1 × 910 = + 910 mm
Minimum height difference needed = 3 660 mm

The crusher should be placed 4 m above the tank.


Example US units:
The specified flow is 31.7 US gal/min, and the return line consists of:

49 ft 4" piping 49 × 1.56 = 76.44"


4 × 90° bends R=1×D 4 × 7.87 = + 31.48"
1 × 90° sharp turn 1 × 35.83 = + 35.83"
Minimum height difference needed = 143.75"

The crusher should be placed 12 ft above the tank.

1.5.2. Maximum allowed pressure in pressure line


To prevent the lubrication pump from being overloaded there is a
maximum allowed pressure in the pressure line. The pressure build-up
depends on the components and piping dimensions, and on the height
difference between crusher and oil tank.

Pressure drop in piping 800 cSt (cold start), DN 38 new/clean stainless steel
pipes
Specified flow: 120 lit/min
Per meter pipe 27.9 kPa
90° bend R=1×D 14.0 kPa
90° bend R=2×D 7.0 kPa
90° sharp turn 69.6 kPa

Pressure drop in piping 800 cSt (cold start), 1.5" new/clean stainless steel pipes
Specified flow: 31.7 US gal/min
Per foot pipe 1.23 psi
90° bend R=1×D 2.03 psi

Copyright © Sandvik
S 223.1048 - 2 en-US 18/06/2015 13:08:06 13
1. Installation preparations

Pressure drop in piping 800 cSt (cold start), 1.5" new/clean stainless steel pipes
90° bend R=2×D 1.02 psi
90° sharp turn 10.09 psi

NOTE! The viscosity value at cold start is usually lower in the pressure line than
in the return line since the oil is warmed by the oil heaters.
NOTE! If you measure the pressure ahead (upstream) of filter/s and/or cooler/s
on the pressure line to the crusher, you must add the pressure drop for
these components to the values above.
The height difference between crusher and oil tank will add to the
pressure build-up with 10 kPa per meter (0.44 psi per foot) difference.
Example ISO units:
The oil tank unit is placed 4 m below the crusher with 15 m DN 38
piping and 10 × 90° bends R=2×D. Specified flow is 120 l/min.

15 meters DN 38 piping 15 × 27.9 = 418.5 kPa


10 × 90° bends R=2×D 10 × 7.0 = + 70.0 kPa
4 meters height difference 4 × 10.0 = + 40.0 kPa
Pressure build-up in oil line = 528.5 kPa
Crusher minimum oil pressure + 300.0 kPa
Minimum required pump pressure 828.5 kPa

The required pump pressure will be approximately 850 kPa.


Example US units:
The oil tank unit is placed 13.1 ft below the crusher with 49 ft 1.5" piping
and 10 × 90° bend R=2×D. Specified flow is 31.7 US gal/min.

49 ft 1.5" piping 49 × 1.23 = 60.27 psi


10 × 90° bends R=2×D 10 × 1.02 = + 10.2 psi
13 ft height difference 13 × 0.44 = + 5.72 psi
Pressure build-up in oil line = 76.19 psi
Crusher minimum oil pressure + 43.51 psi
Minimum required pump pressure 119.7 psi

The required pump pressure will be approximately 123 psi.

1.6. Foundation
The crusher equipment must have a stable, adequately dimensioned
foundation. A well designed and level foundation is of the utmost
importance for the successful operation of the crusher equipment. The
foundation can be either a cast concrete foundation or a steel
supporting structure.
The design and construction of the concrete foundation or steel
supporting structure must be undertaken by qualified and experienced
personnel
NOTE! The concrete foundation or steel supporting structure must be designed
and constructed in accordance with the applicable national and local
engineering regulations and building codes, etc.

Copyright © Sandvik
14 S 223.1048 - 2 en-US 18/06/2015 13:08:06
1. Installation preparations

The foundation must be designed to accommodate the static and


dynamic loads generated by the crusher, with an adequate safety factor.
Refer to the Technical Specifications.
Anchor plates and foundation bolts must be sufficiently strong and must
be well anchored.
NOTE! Anchor plates and foundation bolts for casting into the concrete
foundation are not included in the delivery.
The foundation must be constructed to accurate dimensions. The
crusher's mounting points must be level, that is, max ±1 mm (±0.04")
deviation at load application points.
NOTE! It is important to decide on the placement of the drive motor and the oil
tank unit before the foundation is designed. The oil tank unit can be
installed on either side of the crusher. For a crusher with a V-belt drive it
is possible to install the motor on either side of the crusher. This is done
by changing the placement of the mounting feet on the crusher, see
section Crusher mounting feet on page 20.
For general information on placement, see section Placement on page
12. Contact Sandvik to discuss any questions about the way in which
you plan to install the crusher.

1.6.1. Foundation loads


Refer to the Mechanical Drawings for information on the static and
dynamic forces transmitted to the foundation via the crusher's mounting
points. The information about dynamic loads applies for the crusher's
maximum eccentric throw.

1.6.2. Natural frequencies


It is important that the foundation/supporting structure has no natural
frequencies close to the normal operating speed (frequency) of the
crusher's eccentric. Refer to the Mechanical Drawings for information
on this frequency.

1.6.3. Movement of the crusher


If the crusher is mounted on rubber dampers, it will oscillate horizontally
up to ± 15 mm (±0.6") during normal operation. During starting and
stopping the movement is greater – up to ± 50 mm (±2"). Make sure
that there is room for the crusher's movement all around.
If the crusher is mounted on rubber dampers, the sub-frame or motor
bracket, the motor and the drive assembly will move with the crusher.
Provide sufficient space all around the sub-frame or motor bracket, the
motor and the drive assembly.
The feed hopper is bolted to the crusher's topshell and thus moves with
the crusher. Do not attach any chute or conveyor to the feed hopper, as
this would subject the crusher and the other attachment points to
abnormal loads.

S 223.1048 - 2 en-US 18/06/2015 13:08:06 15
1. Installation preparations

Hoses and cables attached to the crusher and motor will also move.
Provide adequate space for this movement and protect hoses and
cables from falling stones and dust.

1.6.4. Using an existing concrete foundation


If you intend to utilize an existing concrete foundation that has
previously been used for another type of cone crusher, it is essential to
check that it can cope with the dimensions and loads of the crusher,
with due regard paid to the condition of the concrete and reinforcement.

• Thoroughly clean and inspect the top surface of the foundation.


• If the foundation is in good condition, make sure that the attachment
points for the crusher (support pads) are level and firmly anchored.
NOTE! It is essential that the support pads are firmly anchored so
that they can withstand the loads generated by the crusher.
• If the existing foundation is damaged or has cracks on the top, it must
be repaired in an appropriate way.
• It is often convenient to install a large installation plate on top of the
old foundation (>30 mm (>1.2") thick steel plate), but it is essential
that it is properly anchored. If the old crusher's foundation bolts are
still in place and are in good condition, it may be possible to use them
to anchor the new installation plate. Make sure that the upper ends of
the old bolts are cut off at the correct level so that they do not
interfere with the new installation.
• If you are using one of Sandvik's standard installation packages,
make sure that anchor plates are provided in the correct positions for
the rubber dampers. Also make sure that the rubber dampers are
level. See section Installation alternatives on page 17 for more
details.

1.6.5. Using a steel supporting structure


If the crusher equipment is to be placed on a steel supporting structure,
the structure must be carefully designed for the duty. Take the following
points into consideration:

• Design the steel supporting structure so that it is strong enough to


accommodate the loads to which it will be subjected. Refer to section
Foundation loads in the Technical Specifications.
• When using one of Sandvik's standard installation arrangements,
note that the rubbers dampers are level, regardless the size of the
dampers beneath the motor and the crusher.
• Make sure that the crusher's mounting points are level (max. ±1 mm
(±0.04") deviation at load application point).
Make sure that the structure is mounted horizontally and rests on a firm
foundation. If the foundation is not sufficiently stable, the supporting
structure will vibrate and thus be subjected to abnormal stresses.

1.7. Installation alternatives


The crusher can be installed in different ways:

• On a new foundation or on an existing foundation, previously used for


another cone crusher
• On a concrete foundation or on a steel supporting structure
• With a direct drive or with a V-belt drive
• On rubber dampers or directly on the foundation or supporting
structure
NOTE! If the crusher is mounted directly on a foundation without the rubber
dampers, the dynamic loads transmitted to the foundation or supporting
structure will be higher.
In this manual, Sandvik provides installation drawings and detailed
descriptions of installation sequences for the two installation
alternatives, for which Sandvik can supply a standard installation
package:

• Crusher with direct drive and rubber dampers – crusher and motor
mounted on common sub-frame – on a concrete foundation, with dust
sealing ring (see section Direct drive installation package on page
18 and section Crusher with V-belt/direct drive and rubber dampers,
on a concrete foundation on page 42).
• Crusher with V-belt drive and rubber dampers – with motor on motor
bracket attached to crusher – on a concrete foundation, with dust
sealing frame (see section V-belt drive installation package on page
18 and section Crusher with V-belt/direct drive and rubber dampers,
on a concrete foundation on page 42.
In the Technical Specifications you will find information that will be
useful for the design of other installation alternatives:

• Crusher on a concrete foundation – fixed installation (see section


Crusher on a concrete foundation – fixed installation on page 45.
NOTE! If the crusher is fixed rigidly to the foundation, the dynamic
forces transmitted to the foundation will be higher than when
rubber dampers are used. Make sure that the foundation is
designed accordingly.
NOTE! As the motor is installed directly on the foundation, there is
no machined structure (sub-frame or motor bracket) between
the motor and the crusher. It is therefore extremely important
that the alignment of the motor is very carefully checked.

S 223.1048 - 2 en-US 18/06/2015 13:08:06 17
1. Installation preparations

• Crusher with rubber dampers on a foundation, and with motor fixed


(see section Crusher with rubber dampers on a steel supporting
structure on page 45.
NOTE! If the crusher is mounted on rubber dampers it will gyrate
(see section Movement of the crusher on page 15). If the
motor is fixed to the foundation, there will be relative
movement between the crusher and the motor. This normally
means that a V-belt drive will be used in such a case. If so,
make sure that the center line of the motor's shaft is within
15° of the vertical plane through the center line of the
crusher's pinionshaft. Otherwise there is a major risk of
problems with the V-belt drive.
Sandvik recommends that the motor is mounted on a frame, similar to
the arrangement used in Sandvik's standard V-belt drive installation
package. See section V-belt drive installation package on page 18.
NOTE! As the motor is installed directly on the foundation, there is no machined
structure (sub-frame or motor bracket) between the motor and the
crusher. It is therefore important that the alignment of the motor is very
carefully checked.
Other installation arrangements are possible, to suit the individual
requirements of the plant in question. Please contact Sandvik to discuss
the way in which you intend to install your equipment.

1.7.1. Installation packages


The installation components supplied by Sandvik depend on what has
been ordered in each individual case. Sandvik offers two different
installation packages, one with a direct drive and one with a V-belt drive.
Drive alternatives vary depending on crusher model.

1.7.2. Direct drive installation package


The crusher is bolted to a sub-frame constructed of steel sections. The
motor is also mounted on the sub-frame. Between the motor and the
crusher there is a flexible coupling and a torque-limiting coupling. This
arrangement makes it easy to keep the motor, drive and crusher in the
correct alignment. Refer to the Mechanical Drawings and Motor and
direct drive on page 46 for more details of the direct drive installation.
The sub-frame is supported by rubber dampers, fixed on the foundation.

1.7.3. V-belt drive installation package


The crusher is mounted on four rubber dampers fixed to the top of the
dust sealing frame, which incorporates a sponge rubber sealing strip.
The crusher has two normal mounting feet and two connector-type
mounting feet, to which the motor bracket is attached. Two additional
rubber dampers are installed beneath the motor bracket.

1. Installation preparations

Mounted on the motor bracket is a motor frame that carries the motor
and a jack shaft assembly. Between the motor and the jack shaft is a
flexible coupling, with a guard. The jack shaft carries a V-belt pulley. A
set of V-belts transmits power to the crusher's drive pulley, protected by
a guard. Pulleys and V-belts have either SPC or 8V profiles.
The entire V-belt drive assembly can be fitted to either side of the
crusher (viewed from the outer end of the pinionshaft) and the
components are delivered from the factory set up for the desired side.
Refer to the Mechanical Drawings and Motor and V-belt drive on page
46 for more details of the V-belt drive installation.

1.7.4. Rubber dampers


To reduce the stresses in the concrete foundation or steel supporting
structure, it is advisable to install the crusher on anti-vibration
compression mountings which absorb the vibrations generated when
the equipment is running.
Crushing hazard
If the crusher is mounted on rubber dampers, there is a risk
of crushing fingers etc. when the machine is running,
WARNING! especially when starting and stopping.
Make sure that there is room for the crusher's horizontal
movement. Information on this movement is given on the
installation drawing.

Following rubber dampers are used:

• Dampers (Type A) are used on the sub-frame beneath the crusher,


when the crusher and motor are mounted on a common sub-frame.
• Dampers (Type B) are used on the sub-frame beneath the motor,
when the crusher and motor are mounted on a common sub-frame.
For details of the rubber dampers, see the figures below.
To ensure that the crusher's motion is harmonic, the rubber dampers
must be adjusted vertically to the correct level(s), as shown on the
appropriate drawing. Refer to Mechanical Drawings.

NOTE! The crusher can also be mounted directly on the foundation without the
rubber compression mountings, but dynamic loads will in this case be
higher.

1.7.5. Crusher mounting feet


The crusher has four mounting feet, bolted to the bottomshell. The
crusher is mounted on a sub-frame (as in the case of Sandvik's direct
drive and V-belt drive installation package), on four rubber dampers
(without a sub-frame or a motor bracket) or directly on the foundation
(i.e. a fixed installation), the four mounting feet are all of the normal
type.

The crusher is delivered with the mounting feet already fitted, so if either
of Sandvik's installation packages is ordered, the mounting feet will be
correct.

1.8. Crusher arrangement

1.8.1. Electrical installation - general


Make sure all local requirements are fulfilled, also the ones that are site
specific.
NOTE! The crusher must be installed in such a way that it can be operated as a
standalone unit during maintenance sessions. Secure that any power
shutdown related to crusher activity does not interfere with other site-
critical operations.
External cables, disconnecting switches and fuses must be ordered
before installation. See chapter Electrical installations on page 57 for
further information. Contact Sandvik for further information about the
cables, switches and fuses.

1.8.2. Remote control system (option)


At most sites a main control system is used to control the process. Has
the main control system been prepared for the addition of the
equipment?

1.9. Process material


Sandvik recommends the prior testing of the quality of the material that
is to be processed with the cone crusher. Process material wears the
cone crusher and the adjacent equipment in varying ways. Sandvik can
assist with such testing.

1.9.1. Dust protection


The inhalation of dust from the process material can be unhealthy with
many types of material. Dust can cause death or severe injuries.
Sandvik recommends installing dust protection equipment to prevent
dust spreading from the process equipment. Such equipment is not
included in the crusher's standard specification.

1.9.2. Feed arrangement


The efficiency of the cone crusher is dependent on the design of the
feed arrangement. To achieve maximum crusher capacity, the following
parameters must be met:

• The material is fed into the crusher at a sufficiently high rate


• The material is evenly distributed around the crushing chamber
• The material fed to the crusher is not segregated
However, it is important to design the infeed so that the construction is
removable to facilitate easy maintenance of the equipment. The cone

S 223.1048 - 2 en-US 18/06/2015 13:08:06 21
1. Installation preparations

crusher can be delivered with a feed hopper and without a distributor to


control the distribution of the process material into the cone crusher.
The feed hopper is divided so that the machine can be disassembled
without the need to remove the feed conveyor or feeder. If a belt
conveyor or a chute is used to feed the crusher, coarser material will
tend to separate from the finer material (segregation).
The feed arrangement must be electronically connected and interlocked
in such a way that it cannot be started before the crusher and the
discharge system are running.
Sandvik recommends the following:

• mount a level monitor in the crusher feed hopper to stop the feed to
the crusher if the material level rises too high. Another method is to
use a variable speed drive for the feeder to maintain a constant
material level in the feed hopper.
• install a surge bin ahead of the crusher. The surge bin should have a
high and a low level monitor connected to the control system to
ensure choke feed condition.
• install a screen ahead of the crusher to remove fine material before
crushing to increase the performance and capacity of the crusher.
• install a magnet conveyor ahead of the cone crusher to remove
magnetic metal from the process material and a metal detector to
prevent metal objects from entering the crusher.
The drawing below shows a crusher without a distributor. The spider
arms must be aligned with the feeder or the conveyor.

Cone crusher without a distributor

The process material should be de-segregated before it is fed into the


crushing chamber. This can be accomplished in different ways, for
instance with a distributor. The drawing below shows a cone crusher
with a distributor. The spider arms are at right angles to the feeder or
conveyor.

22 S 223.1048 - 2 en-US 18/06/2015 13:08:06
1. Installation preparations

Cone crusher with a distributor

Regulate the feed so that there is a build-up of process material in the


feed hopper (choke feed). The process material should be level with the
top of the spider cap. Choke feeding will create a better result in the
form of a finer and more uniform product size. This will also make the
crusher run more smoothly and lower the power consumption.
If a distributor is not used, it is important to optimize the feed
arrangement as far as possible. This can be accomplished with a feed
box above the crusher's feed hopper, as shown below. The feed box
must be designed so that it can be moved longitudinally to correctly
guide the material.

Feed from a belt conveyor Feed from a chute. The chute Feed from a feeder without a feed
can be attached to a belt box. The feeder must be adjustable
conveyor

1.9.3. Feed arrangements for fine crushing


Fine crushing gives rise to the highest loads on the crusher. To obtain
correct feeding, always use a splitter for feed sizes up to 80 mm (3.1")
This part is not included in the normal scope of supply from Sandvik.
The splitter prevents segregation and also distributes the material
evenly around the crushing chamber.
For installation dimensions of the feed hopper, see the installation
drawing.

Copyright © Sandvik
S 223.1048 - 2 en-US 18/06/2015 13:08:06 23
1. Installation preparations

NOTE! The topshell arms must be correctly oriented relative to the splitter and
the material must not be segmented to the sides.
The material must be led into the splitter through the area highlighted in
the drawing. This area can normally be adjusted. The duty of the splitter
is to split up the material stream into equal parts on either side of the
topshell spider arms.

Feed arrangements with EC or C crushing chamber


To prevent damage to the crusher and/or unnecessary wear on the
spider cap and arm liners, the feed to the crusher must be arranged so
that the material falls onto a “stone box” before it enters the crusher.
This reduces the drop height and speed of the material, particularly
important with EC or C crushing chambers that are fed with relatively
coarse material. The “stone box” contributes to a reduction of
segregation.
When processing coarse material, keep the level of material in the feed
hopper a little lower than normal to prevent bridging.
Contact Sandvik for advise on design of feed arrangements.

1.9.4. Discharge arrangement


Design the discharge arrangement so that there is no possibility for
material to build up beneath the crusher and damage the crusher’s dust
seal ring. Protect the lubrication and Hydroset lines from falling material.

• The diameter of the cone crusher’s discharge opening is


1 970 mm (77.6") .
• Concrete foundations or discharge arrangements below the cone
crusher must be constructed with a larger inner diameter than the
diameter of the cone crusher’s discharge opening to minimize wear.
The volume of the discharge below the cone crusher must be larger
than the volume of the process material in the crusher and the feed
hopper together. This volume is approximately 4 m3 (140 ft3). If a

24 S 223.1048 - 2 en-US 18/06/2015 13:08:06
1. Installation preparations

discharge conveyor stops, the feed arrangement must stop and allow
the process material in the crusher to pass out from the crusher.
The discharge arrangement must have an inspection door for cleaning
and inspection. The Hydroset cylinder must be easily accessible.
A ledge or shelf inside the discharge compartment will absorb the
impact of the material falling onto the discharge conveyor.
A chute should have a slope angle of at least 45° to avoid material build
up. In some cases, the inclination needs to be steeper. Contact Sandvik
for further information.

1.9.5. Guards
All moving and rotating parts on the machine must be covered with
guards. The belt drive and coupling or direct drive coupling must be
equipped with guards. The oil tank unit has only one moving part, the
pump P1 of the pump motor M2.
Conveyors and feed arrangements always present a potential risk of
falling process material. Design overhead conveyors and feed
arrangement so that guards protect walkways and platforms from falling
process material.

1.9.6. Platforms and guard rails


All equipment need inspection and maintenance. It is important to
design suitable platforms for this purpose. The standard scope of supply
for a cone crusher from Sandvik does not include platforms and guard
rails.
A well-designed platform never relies on the cone crusher for support as
vibrations and movement of the crusher make it unsuitable. The floor of

Copyright © Sandvik
S 223.1048 - 2 en-US 18/06/2015 13:08:06 25
1. Installation preparations

the platform should preferably be “solid” (instead of wire mesh) to avoid


the risk of falling tools or equipment accidentally falling and hitting
someone below. Use kicking boards and wire mesh on the sides under
the handrails for the same reason.
NOTE! Never use conveyors as walkways. Always design walkways along the
conveyors with guard rails, and ensure sufficient carrying capacity to
meet local rules and legislation. Take into account the build-up of stone
and dust, as well as the weight of tools and parts for service work. Make
sure overloading is not possible.

1.10. Operating in low temperatures


The cone crusher's oil tank unit needs special preparations for reliable
operation in low temperatures. The following section describes
recommended methods.
The accompanying flow chart Low temperature problems – symptoms
and remedies on page 27 can be used to determine which method to
use.
NOTE! If it is difficult to start the crusher even when the appropriate
recommendations have been followed, contact Sandvik for further
assistance.

1.10.1. Measures for easier starting and running in cold


climate
The following methods will increase the oil flow at low temperatures.
The order in which these methods are applied should be judged in each
individual case. A combination of several methods may be necessary.
Part numbers for ordering the modification kits are listed under the
respective methods.

• Heating cables on oil lines


• Additional oil heaters
• Diesel heating system
• Heating in the component section of the oil tank unit
• Synthetic oils
• Mineral oil for the winter season
• Blanking off the oil cooler radiator
• Two-speed fan motor for oil cooler
• Insulation of the oil tank
• Continuous running of the lubrication oil pump
A cone crusher that is fitted with “low temperature equipment” will
normally be equipped with:

• Additional oil heaters


• Insulated bottom in the component section of the oil tank unit

1.10.3. Heater set - cold climate


In order to heat the oil to the correct temperature, it can be necessary to
install extra heaters. Installation is easiest if this equipment is ordered
together with a new crusher, but extra heaters can also be fitted in the
tanks of older crushers.
The component section of the oil tank unit is normally open at the
bottom to provide good ventilation and cooling of the oil pumps. In a
cold climate it might be necessary to insulate the tank to keep the oil at
working temperature and prevent pressure drop.

1.10.4. Diesel heating system


In plants without 24-hour electrical power, a timer-controlled diesel
heating system can be used. The system starts heating the oil up to
three hours before electrical power is available.
The tank unit is prepared for diesel heating.
The diesel heating system uses a 12 V DC supply.

Modification kit
452.5389

1.10.5. Heating cables on oil line


Refer to the installation drawings in Mechanical drawings.
At low temperatures, the oil in the lines between the tank unit and the
crusher can solidify and block the lines. This problem can be minimized
by insulating the oil lines and installing heating cables.
It is preferable to use a heating cable of the self-regulating type which
needs no thermostat. The heating cable should have a rating of 8-10 W/
mand 40 mm (1.6") insulation.
Install the heating cable on the underside of the oil line and use
insulating tape to keep the cable in place. If possible, increase the slope
of the return oil line before installing heating cables.

S 223.1048 - 2 en-US 18/06/2015 13:08:06 29
1. Installation preparations

If the oil lines are more than 50 mm (2") in diameter, or if the oil needs
to be heated to a temperature of 50 ºC (122 ºF) above the ambient
temperature, the heating cable can be led backwards and forwards on
the same line.
Heating cables are in many countries considered as high voltage
equipment and must therefore be installed by an authorized electrician.
The heating cable can be purchased from a local supplier who can
usually also install it. Heating cable is normally supplied for 230 V.

1.10.6. Heating in the component section


Extra heating in the tank unit can be provided by a standard fan heater
with a rating of about 600 W. The fan heater must have a thermostat
which prevents overheating.
Risk of equipment or property damage
NOTICE Position the fan heater so that oil cannot drip onto it.

Sandvik does not supply modification kits with fan heaters. Select a
suitable fan heater from any supplier.

1.10.7. Synthetic oils


Synthetic oils will allow for trouble-free starting at about 10 ºC lower
temperature than a mineral-based oil, and are in all respects superior to
mineral-based oils:

• Longer change intervals due to high stability


• Easier starting at low temperature
• Lower energy consumption due to lower friction
• Wider temperature range
• No oxidation and “coking”
The synthetic oil shall meet the same requirements as for mineral oil.
For further information about lubricant requirements, refer to the
Technical specifications.
The following synthetic oils are recommended by Sandvik for the
lubricating system. Other brands can be used after consulting the
supplier.

Brand Type Minimum pour point Viscosity (cSt) at 40 °C


Mobil oil SHC XMP 150 -48 °C 150

The recommended synthetic oils can be mixed with mineral-based oils,


but should be diluted as little as possible.
NOTE! Empty the crusher and oil tank carefully before refilling with synthetic oil.
To reduce the risk of dilution of a synthetic lubricating oil, the Hydroset
oil should also be synthetic. A grade with a viscosity down to 30 cSt at
40 °C can be selected for the Hydroset system.

1.10.8. Mineral oil for the winter season


In ambient temperatures below 0 ºC, an ISO VG 100 oil can be used,
refer to section Lubrications systems in the Technical Specifications.

1.10.9. Blanking off the oil cooler radiator


If the cooling fan is started at a low ambient temperature, the pressure
drop across the cooler will cause the by-pass valve CV4 on the cooler
to open. The oil is then not sufficiently cooled, and can overheat.
The easiest way to avoid this is to blank off the radiator so that less air
passes through the radiator matrix. The degree of blanking depends on
the ambient temperature and must be determined by trial-and-error.

1.10.10. Frequency converter


Another way to reduce the air flow through the radiator is to use a
frequency converter for the oil cooling fan.
Frequency converters are not supplied by Sandvik.

1.10.11. Two-speed fan motor for oil cooler


Another way to reduce the air flow through the radiator is to use a two-
speed motor on the cooling fan. The speed of the cooling fan is
determined by the oil temperature in the return line.
Examples of switching points with ISO VG 150 oil:

Return oil temperature Cooling fan


Rising oil temperature 43 °C (109 °F) The fan starts at low speed
43–46 °C (109-115 °F) Runs at low speed
Over 46 °C (115 °F) Runs at high speed
Falling oil temperature Over 43 °C (109 °F) Runs at high speed
43–40 °C (109-104 °F) Runs at low speed
40 °C (104 °F) The fan stops

1.10.12. Insulation of the oil tank


Insulating the oil tank will reduce the overnight drop in oil temperature at
low ambient temperatures. In warmer weather the insulation should be
removed to prevent overheating.
Insulation can easily be installed by the plant personnel. A suitable
material is Paroc Pro Slab 35, 50 mm (2") thick. The insulation material
must be protected from moisture, as it will otherwise lose its insulating
properties.
Insulation kits are not supplied by Sandvik.

1.10.13. Continuous running of the lubrication oil


pump
Running the oil pump continuously while the cone crusher is stopped
will prevent the oil from solidifying in the lines and crusher.
Leave the oil tank heaters switched on. Cover the crusher’s feed
opening to prevent excessive cooling by cold air passing through the
crusher chamber.

Starting equipment for the motors, pumps and heating elements are
normally not part of the supply from Sandvik. Fuses, relays, motor
protectors and control units must be installed in the appropriate switch
gear cabinets. Starting and stopping can be made possible either by
buttons or via software.

4.3.1. M1 – Crusher motor


The main drive motor of the crusher can be started in several different
ways, depending on the power supply available:

• Direct on-line starter


• Electronic soft starter
NOTE! The crusher drive motor’s (M1) relay must be interlocked with the
lubrication oil pump motor M2, so that it is only possible to run the
crusher when the lubrication pump M2 is in operation.

NOTICE the lubrication oil M2, so that it is only possible to run the
crusher when the lubrication pumpM2 is in operation.

TIMS (option)
Risk of equipment or property damage.
The M2 relay must be interlocked so that it is only possible to
NOTICE run the lubrication oil pump when the “Lubrication oil pump
ready for start” signal from the TIMS is present.

4.3.3. M3 - Oil cooler fan motor


Every crusher has an air/oil cooler or water/oil (option) cooler in the
lubrication system. The temperature is controlled by the temperature
switch TS2. For further information about the temperature switches,
refer to the Technical specifications.
With a water/oil cooler it can be convenient to open/close the cooling
water supply with a magnetic valve.
TIMS (option)
The cooling fan motor is controlled by the temperature sensors TT1 and
TT4 that generates the “Cooling fan on/off” signals from the TIMS.
If a water/oil heat exchanger is used, it can be convenient to open/close
the cooling water supply with a solenoid valve controlled by the
temperature transmitter TT5 that generates the “Cooling fan on/off”
signals.
NOTE! When the air/oil or water/oil cooler is in operation, the “Cooling fan in
operation” signal must be sent to the TIMS.

4.3.4. M6 - Hydroset pump


Starting and control equipment for the Hydroset pump is normally
delivered by Sandvik included in the ASRi system. The delivered
electrical cabinet L3 contains a fuse, a relay and a motor protection for
operation of the Hydroset pump.

pinionshaft oil pump (M9) when the lubrication oil pump (M2)
is running.

TIMS (option)
The pinionshaft lubrication oil pump motor is controlled by the pressure
transmitter PT3 that sends the “Lubrication oil pump pinionshaft on/off”
signals to the TIMS.
NOTE! When the pinionshaft lubrication pump is in operation, the “Pinionshaft
lubrication oil pump in operation” signal must be sent to the TIMS.

4.4. TIMS (option)


The overall control logic for the oil tank unit is provided by the Tank
Instrumentation Monitoring System (TIMS), see section TIMS
installation (options) on page 60. Connections to the TIMS are made
to the connection box LC10 mounted on the oil tank unit.
To provide galvanic separation between the TIMS and the customer’s
electrical system, the relay box LC10.2 must be used. This relay box is
supplied with the TIMS.
Alternative to relay box LC10.2
Use a bus communication between the TIMS system and the customer
overview control system.

4.4.1. TIMS installation (options)


4.4.1.1. General description TIMS
The Tank Instrumentation Monitoring System, TIMS, is an option that
provides the control logic necessary for the proper operation of the
lubrication and overpressure air systems.
TIMS can be connected to the plant control system via hard-wired
digital inputs and outputs or via Profinet. It receives input signals from
sensors and transmitters in the lubrication and overpressure air
systems. The system monitors the values, compares them with set-
points in the TIMS program, and sends the appropriate output signals to
the plant control system.

4. Electrical installations

The functions monitored by TIMS are:

• Inlet and return oil temperatures (main lubrication)


• Inlet and return oil flows (main lubrication)
• Lubrication oil pressure (main lubrication)
• Lubrication oil pressure (pinionshaft lubrication)
• Differential pressure across filter (main lubrication)
• Differential pressure across filter (pinionshaft lubrication)
• Oil level in tank (main lubrication)
• Pressure in over pressure dust sealing system (crusher)
• Temperature of oil in tank (main lubrication)
• Temperature close to spider bushing (crusher)
• Temperature of oil at cooler outlet
The TIMS outputs are used to control the oil heaters, the lubrication oil
pump, the over pressure fans, the pinionshaft lubrication oil pump, the
air/oil or water/oil cooler, and to give a signal permitting operation of the
crusher drive motor.
The TIMS unit is built into an encapsulated box LC10 mounted on the
outside of the oil tank unit. The plant control system can be connected
to LC10 or LC10.2, refer to the Mechanical Drawings.
There are three other connection boxes:

• LC9, to which the various power cables are connected to the motors
inside the oil tank unit.
• ASR-CBT, to which all connections in the tank unit for the ASRi
system are made.
• LC10.2, which contains relays for galvanic separation between the
TIMS system and the customer’s electrical system.
PT1 is connected to the TIMS, but the two relays for the level
transmitter LT2 and the speed switch SS1 shall be connected directly to
the customer’s control system.
For further information, refer to the connection and circuit diagrams in
the Mechanical drawings.

Pinionshaft lubrication oil pump M9 ON

Signal category: Run command


Output signal: PNP transistor output
Function: Start/stop signal for the pinionshaft lubrication oil pump. The pump will start at
the same time as the crusher’s drive motor and stop 30 seconds after the
crusher's drive motor has stopped.

4.4.1.5. Alarms
Any fault discovered by TIMS is designated as an A-alarm or a B-alarm.
A-alarm
An A-alarm is a serious fault which shall stop the crusher’s drive motor.
When an A-alarm has been indicated it is necessary to go out to the oil
tank unit and investigate the fault. When the fault has been corrected,
the operator must press the RESET ALARM push button on the TIMS
box before the crusher can be restarted.
Risk of equipment or property damage
The signals “Low flow in the return oil line”FS1, and “Low
NOTICE flow in the main oil supply to the crusher” FT4 are very
serious alarms which must stop the crusher drive motor
immediately.

All other A-alarms should first stop the material feed by cancelling the
signal “Material feed to the crusher permitted” about 1 minute before the
crusher drive motor is stopped.
The A-alarms are:

• FS1 - Low flow in the return oil line


• FT4 - Low flow rate in the main oil supply line to the crusher
• PT3 - Low pressure (lubrication oil – pinionshaft)
• TT1 - High temperature in the return oil line
• TT1 - High temperature (limit value 2) in spider bearing
B-alarm
A B-alarm is less serious and does not shut down the crusher’s drive
motor. However, it indicates that a fault has occurred which should be
corrected as soon as possible. The operator must press the RESET
ALARM push button to cancel the alarm. If nothing has been done to
correct the fault, a new B-alarm is registered almost immediately, so it is
recommended to correct the fault right away.
To avoid damage to the equipment it is recommended to stop the
material feed to the crusher when a B-alarm is activated. Cancel the
signal “Material feed to the crusher permitted” approximately 1 minute
before the crusher drive motor is stopped.
The B-alarms are:

• TT1 - Low oil level in the main tank


• FU1/M2 - Filter blocked

Output signal: PNP transistor output and indication on the TIMS alarm panel with a yellow
LED.
Function: A less serious fault or operational interruption has occurred. The crusher
continues to run, but the cause of the fault should be corrected as quickly as
possible. A LED on the TIMS alarm panel indicates the cause of the alarm.

Fault: Low return oil flow, main lubrication FS1

Signal category: A-alarm


Output signal: PNP transistor output and indication on the TIMS alarm panel.
Function: Continuous signal = Main lubrication oil return flow is below the minimum
permitted value.
Flashing signal = FS1 activated with the lubrication oil pump not running.
Indicates fault in FS1

Fault: Low oil flow to crusher, main lubrication FT4

Signal category: A-alarm

Output signal: PNP transistor output and indication on the TIMS alarm panel.
Function: Excessive pressure drop across the main lubrication oil filter FU1
(PT2 and PT4).

Fault: Filter blocked FU2/M9

Signal category: B-alarm


Output signal: PNP transistor output and indication on the TIMS alarm panel.
Function: The pinionshaft lubrication oil filter FU2 is blocked (PS3).

Fault: Low overpressure at crusher PT1

Signal category: B-alarm


Output signal: PNP transistor output and indication on the TIMS alarm panel.
Function: The pressure in the overpressure air supply to the crusher is too low. The
probable cause is that the air filter is blocked.

4.4.1.7. TIMS programs


TIMS can store a maximum of four programs. The only difference
between these programs is for the oil temperatures at which various
control signals are given.
Three of the programs that cover the operating conditions are described
in the Technical specifications:

Copyright © Sandvik
68 S 223.1048 - 2 en-US 18/06/2015 13:08:06
4. Electrical installations

Program 0 Normal operating conditions


Program 1 Operation at high temperatures
Program 2 Operation at low temperatures

Program 3 is only included if the operating conditions of the crusher


cannot be covered by any of the three standard programs. If the crusher
is supplied with program 3 already programmed, the temperature set
points are shown in a table. For further information about the TIMS
(option) temperature settings, refer to the Technical specifications.
If it appears that it is necessary to change from one program to another,
this can be done by moving the program selector switch S2 inside the
TIMS connection box LC10. The number visible on this switch indicates
the selected program.
NOTE! Contact Sandvik for more information before changing the program.
Installation of custom programs and modification of existing programs
can be done on-site by a specialist from Sandvik.
4.4.1.8. Control logic TIMS
As explained in section General description TIMS on page 60, the TIMS
monitors the instruments and safety devices in the oil tank unit and
provides the control logic necessary for correct operation of the various
ancillary systems. The TIMS outputs must be used by the plant’s control
system to start and stop the various motors, etc. A description of how
the TIMS and the plant’s control system work together is given below.
In the explanation below, the following symbols are used:

• (IN/to TIMS) = Signal from plant control system to TIMS input


• (OUT/from TIMS) = Signal from TIMS output to plant control system
Starting the crusher
• TIMS checks that the flow switch FS1 and the flow monitor FT4 are
functioning correctly. If all is well, a signal is sent to start the oil pump:
(OUT/from TIMS “Lubrication oil pump ON” M2)
• The plant control system must be configured to start the oil pump and
send a confirmation signal back from the contactor:
(IN/to TIMS “Lubrication oil pump in operation”)
• Oil is pumped to the crusher and the TIMS makes the following
checks:
- Oil returns to the tank - FS1
- Oil temperature not too high - TT1
- Oil flow to the crusher sufficient - FT4
- No A-alarm initiated
• If the correct signals are obtained from the instruments, a
corresponding signal is sent to the plant control system:
(OUT/from TIMS “Crusher ready for operation”)
NOTE! The “Crusher ready for operation” signal is an absolute
condition for the operation of the crusher’s drive motor.
• If this signal is not present – i.e. there is some fault in the circulatory
oil system – the crusher’s drive motor must not be allowed to run.

S 223.1048 - 2 en-US 18/06/2015 13:08:06 69
4. Electrical installations

• If the “Crusher ready for operation” signal is not given, the LEDs on
the TIMS box LC10 indicates which monitor that is not ready
FS1 and/or FT4.
• When the “Crusher ready for operation” signal is given, TIMS sends a
start command for the overpressure fan:
(OUT/from TIMS “Overpressure fan ON”)
The plant control system now starts the overpressure fan M8.
• The crusher drive motor can now be started by the plant control
system. When the contactor closes, a confirmation signal must be
sent back from the contactor:
(IN/to TIMS “Crusher in operation”)
• The TIMS then generates a command signal to start the pinionshaft
lubrication pump:
(OUT/from TIMS “Pinionshaft lubrication pump ON”)
• The plant control system must start the pinionshaft lubrication pump
and send a confirmation signal back from the contactor:
(IN/to TIMS “Pinionshaft lubrication pump in operation”)
• If no confirmation signal is received back from the contactor by the
TIMS within 1 minute, an alarm signal is generated by TIMS:
(OUT/from TIMS “Low pressure lubrication oil (Pinionshaft)”)
During operation
• During operation, the flow of oil to and from the crusher is constantly
monitored. If the signal from any of the sensors FS1, TT1, FT4 or TT5
goes outside the permitted limits, an A-alarm is generated. The
“Crusher ready for operation” signal immediately disappears and the
crusher’s drive motor must stop. The TIMS alarm panel indicates
which sensor has initiated the alarm.
• When the crusher is operating the main lubrication return oil
temperature will rise, and when the temperature exceeds the limit
value the oil must be cooled. A command signal is generated so that
the plant control system can start the air/oil or water/oil cooler:
(OUT/from TIMS “Cooling fan ON”)
When the return oil temperature drops below the limit value, the air/oil
or water/oil cooler must be stopped. For further information about the
temperature settings for the air/oil and water/oil coolers, refer to the
Technical specifications.
• To reduce contaminating dust in the lubrication oil there is an
overpressure blower, either a fan or with compressed air with a
regulator, which introduce air at a slight overpressure into the crusher
and the oil tank. The air pressure at the inlet to the crusher is
monitored by a pressure transmitter PT1. If the pressure drops below
the limit value, a B-alarm is generated:
(OUT/from TIMS “B-alarm”)

4. Electrical installations

Normal stop of the crusher


• When the crusher is to be stopped, the feed to the crusher must be
stopped first.
NOTE! With an A-alarm, the crusher drive motor may be stopped
immediately, see section Alarms on page 66.
• After the feed has been stopped, the crusher must continue running
for a few minutes to allow all material to pass through the crusher.
This time delay depends on the layout of the plant. If in doubt, please
contact Sandvik.
• When the time delay has elapsed, the crusher’s drive motor can be
stopped. The confirmation signal from the contactor (IN/to TIMS
“Crusher in operation”) disappears.
• The pinionshaft lubrication oil pump must be stopped at the same
time as the crusher’s drive motor.
• After the crusher's drive motor has stopped, there must be a delay of
two minutes before the command signal for the main lubrication oil
pump (OUT/from TIMS “Lubrication oil pump ON”) disappears. This is
to ensure that the crusher’s bearings continue to be properly
lubricated while the crusher is slowing down.
• After the crusher’s drive motor has stopped, there is a delay of three
minutes before the command signal for the overpressure fan (OUT/
from TIMS “Overpressure fan ON”) disappears. This is in order to
allow all dust to disappear from the crushing chamber before the
crusher has come to a complete stop.
• If the oil cooling fan is in operation when the crusher's drive motor is
stopped, it will be stopped by TIMS at the same time as the main
lubrication oil pump is stopped.

4.4.1.9. Communication
TIMS communicates with the plant’s control system via a number of 24
V digital inputs and outputs. Some of these inputs and outputs are
essential for the operation of the system, while others are optional.
In some plants it is desired to integrate the TIMS more completely into
the plant control system. For this reason, the TIMS incorporates a
communication port. The standard communication protocol is Siemens
Profinet. Other communication protocols are available on request.
