9 START/STOP PROCEDURE
9.1 Starting the unit with a new filter envelope
Shut inlet and outlet dampers (if installed) at about 50% before starting the unit. Allow a few hours
for dust to penetrate the filter envelope before starting the shaker system. This will result in a
better filtration efficiency and longer filter envelope lifetime.
9.2 Normal start-up
Start the collector and allow dust to enter the unit.
9.3 Shutting the unit OFF
Shut down power to the collector and close all inlet and outlet dampers so that dust does not flow
back into the unit. You may now access the collector for inspection, drum change or drum empty
out and/or filter envelope replacement.
