The Balancer
The vapor then moves through a transfer tube to the opposite cooler chamber where it condenses back into a fluid state resulting in a balanced rotor condition.
The rotary transformer--a non-contact power supply
The rotary transformer was developed and patented by BalaDyne. It consists of a stationary primary coil and a rotating secondary coil which allows for power and data to transfer across an air gap between the two coils. With no moving parts in either the transformer or balancer, the transformer is virtually maintenance-free!
The controller--entirely automatic
This computerized system provides automatic control of balancing operation. Self-calibrating, it tracks all balancing events and stores them in memory. Setup parameters are permanently stored in EEPROM, until you change them via the RS232 interface. With its advanced features the BalaDyne IV is uniquely capable of correcting large amounts of unbalance to help you achieve the low vibration levels your process requires.
Log data--The log graphing feature allows you to test balancer operation and fan vibration characteristics. Benchmark chamber function and fan stability for future analysis.
History data--The BalaDyne IV controller stores significant balance events in memory. You can retrieve this data and use it to analyze fan performance. Store max/min vibration levels, balance frequency, and fan sensitivity.
Signature--Measure frequency response throughout the entire rotor operating speed range, detecting problems inherent in the fan structure such as installation irregularities and fan resonant frequencies.
Spectrum--Measure vibration over a specified frequency range and detect vibration at frequencies other than rotor speed. Check for motors and other background vibration problems.
