Identification and Parts Description
Base plate
Pressed steel plate that carries the fan unit and the motor bolted to it. It
(See fig 2)
has numerous holes bored or cut into it, these are to mount the castor
wheels (if you elect to make the machine movable) or the cutout slots for
the wall mounting brackets if you elect to have it wall mounted.
Fan housing
Mainly circular metal box with a rectangular outlet duct. The face of the
(See fig 1)
box has a large circular access plate with the inlet duct extruded at its
centre. This plate is bolted to the fan housing over a gasket to form a
good seal.
Motor
Single phase 230V 50Hz motor rated at 750W. The NVR assembly is
(See fig 2)
fastened to the side of the motor casing.
Handle
Bent steel tube with a rubber hand grip fitted over one end and flattened
(See fig 1)
and bored at the other end to accept the two bolt fastenings that secure
the handle to the back of the fan housing.
Outlet duct
Moulded 120mm diameter duct with integral grill to which the dust bag is
(See fig 1b)
fitted. The dust bag is held in position by a large jubilee clip. The duct is
bolted to the fan housing over a rubber gasket to form as tight a seal as
possible to prevent ‘air spillage’.
Inlet duct
Formed 100mm diameter duct with integral grill on the front of the fan
(See fig 1)
housing access cover plate. The connecting hose from the machine is
positioned here and secured by jubilee clip et al.
N.B. Later models have the inlet grill as a separate item, to enable easier
access for cleaning.
Wall mounting
The kit provides two formed metal brackets, that can be used to mount the
(See fig 3)
extractor on a wall, clear of the floor.
