Start/Stop procedure
Start up with new filters
Shut 50% off all inlet and outlet dampers (if
any) before starting the unit. This procedure is
mostly helpful when the dust to be filtered
sticks to the filter surface. Do not operate the
filtration system until the pressure differential
has increased by at least 1’’ w.g. from the
starting point. This operation allows ‘’caking’’
onto the cartridges for a better filtration
efficiency.
Regular start up
Ensure all optional equipment (i.e. screw
conveyor, rotary valves, etc.) except the blower.
Open the compressed air valve and activate the
sequencer. Start the blower and allow dirty air
into the filtration unit. It is imperative that you
follow the sequence of this operation.
Shut down
To shut down the system, follow these steps.
Cut power to the fan. Shut off compressed air to
unit and sequencer. Close inlet and outlet
dampers in order not to have dirty air back into
the collector and avoid risks of explosion.
If optional equipments are installed, shut down
such equipment in reverse order.
