AQC Dust Collecting Systems
Compressed air connection
Warning!

Compressed air must be free of oil
and humidity. Contamination of
compressed air may result in a poor
cartridge filtration, decreased
cleaning and reduced life time.

Purge the compressed air line to
remove any debris prior to connecting
air line to the dust collector air tank.

Shut off the compressed air system and
purge all air lines prior to servicing or
maintaining the collector.

Locate the pneumatic air tank(s) behind the
Maxiflo-VC dust collector .

Connect air line to the tank(s) using pipe
seal. Check for possible leak(s).
Note :
The use of an air dryer is strongly
recommended to avoid any problem related
to humidity in the compressed air system.
Install a shut off valve, pressure regulator and
filter on the compressed air line. Those
components are not supplied by
A.Q.C. unless
required by the customer.
All components must meet a maximum 90 psig
pressure.
NEVER ALLOW MORE THAN
100 PSIG . Damages to components may occur.
Ventilation ducting
·
The dust collector should be installed as
close as possible to the source of dust in
order to minimize the length of ventilation
ducting.
·
Do not install short radius elbows.
·
Install taps with 30 degrees inlet or less.
·
Do not install straight T taps.
·
Join ducting using tapping screws and
caulking for a proper seal.
