3.7 Installation of Media in the PORTA-Scrubber
There are several varieties of chemical media. Each media is designed to remove a specific
contaminant, or group of contaminants. The arrangement of media in the scrubber is significant.
Media bed #1 is located closest to the inlet. Review the drawing and ensure media is being placed
in the correct bed.
Respirator masks, chosen in accordance with the safety instructions found in the MSDS for the
chemical media, are required to be worn by all personnel during the media installation process,
as well as all other personal safety equipment listed on the MSDS.
Installing Media by Carton:
Loosen latch and remove top hatch. Gradually pour the media in a controlled manner. Avoid causing
significant impact loading by gradually metering the media into the PORTA-Scrubber. Media should
be filled no higher than 4 inches from the tank lid.
3.8 Latches on Tank Cover
Place the cover on the PORTA-Scrubber tank and latch the cover as shown.
