5 NORMAL USE
The MAXIREACH-BD swing boom is designed to remove fumes, gases or dust from the air resulting
from a fabrication process. Each MAXIREACH-BD swing boom is built as per the criteria and
information supplied by the customer for a specific application and should not serve any other
application without the approval of A.Q.C. Inc.
6 OPERATION AND PURPOSE
During normal operation, the MAXIREACH-BD swing boom is pulled or pushed into position for
source capture to vacuum dust or smoke laden air into the attached equipment such as the
MAXAIR fume arm. Particles are vacuumed into the equipment toward an exhaust fan and into a
dust collector or exhausted outside (when permitted).
The
Maxireach
swing boom is shipped partly
assembled but requires minimal final field
assembly. Because of carrier restrictions, swing
booms horizontal steel tubes longer than 10’
(3 meters) are shipped in two (2) pieces.
A joiner with fasteners is included for field
assembly.
