Remarks:
(a) Locations with normal levels of contaminants, experienced in urban areas with industrial
activities scattered over the whole area, or with heavy traffic. Also applies to locations with
immediate neighborhood of industrial sources with chemical emissions.
(b) Locations without special precautions to minimize the presence of sand or dust. Also
applies to locations in close proximity to sand or dust sources.
3.4 Identification tag
Each PQFM is fitted with nameplates for identification purposes.
For cubicle versions, the main filter nameplate is located at the top of the master panel
door, at the outside. Other unit identification nameplates may be present at the inside
of the cubicle.
For IP00 / plate versions of filter, the nameplate is fixed on the top plate of the filter
plate.
The nameplate information should always remain readable to ensure proper
identification during the whole life of the filter. The main filter nameplate includes the
filter type, the nominal voltage range and frequency as well as a serial number, the DSP
software version and an ABB internal article code.
Before connecting the filter to an already existing master, the DSP and
µ
c software
versions of both filters have to be checked. If the versions are different, contact your
ABB representative.
