4.0 Equipment Calibration
1.
Dust Collector Pulse Timer
- Set for approximately 10 seconds for concrete
cleaning; 15 seconds for steel cleaning.
2.
Compressor Pressure Setting
- 80 PSI max. The unloader adjustment
determines pressure (30 PSI drop for Pulse).
3.
Pressure Drop Across Filters
- Minihelic gauge should read between 1 and
4 inches. An indication above 4 indicates that the filters are dirty and should
be replaced.
4.
Dust Bin Change Interval
. - Inspect at 1/2-hour intervals to estimate fill time.
Do not allow dust bin to overfill.
5.
Vacuum Adjustment Gate
on the 6-54 Dust Collector is used to reduce or
increase the suction through the hose between the dust collector and the
surface preparation equipment. Closing the vent increases the suction.
Vacuum Adjustment Gate
Normal surface preparation will usually be accomplished with the vacuum
adjustment gate partially open. A period of trial and error may be necessary
for specific job applications. Generally speaking, the more dust generated by
your surface preparation equipment, the greater the suction you will need
from the dust collector to keep the abrasive as clean as possible.
