BE SURE TO READ ALL DANGER, WARNING AND CAUTION NOTICES BELOW BEFORE PROCEEDING WITH
ANY INSTALLATION OR OPERATION OF THIS DUST COLLECTOR. MAKE SURE YOU ARE IN COMPLIANCE
WITH ALL LOCAL, STATE, FEDERAL AND SAFETY GUIDELINES, REGULATIONS AND STANDARDS.
The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) has
defined the following materials as “reactive metals”:
Aluminum, Magnesium, Tantalum, Titanium and
Zirconium.
Improper handling, machining, collection and disposal of
these materials can result in a severe explosion and/or fire
resulting in death, severe personal injury and extensive,
immediate and surrounding property damage. Consult the
NFPA for current standards.
Review of your application
and future type of installation must be completed by
your local Fire Marshal or an Authorized Fire Department
Official prior to the installation of any equipment for this
purpose.
This Standard combines the following previous Standards
into one Standard: NFPA 480, NFPA 481, NFPA 482, NFPA
485 and NFPA 651. NFPA 484 was approved as an
American National Standard on July 19, 2002.
We have reviewed the latest NFPA Standard 484 for
“Combustible Metals, Metal Powders, and Metal Dusts, 2002
Edition” and we have determined:
Cincinnati Fan Dust Collectors ARE NOT designed to
collect any ”reactive metal” material. They DO NOT meet
NFPA Standard 484.
According to the National Fire Protection Agency
(NFPA), this dust collector CANNOT be used to collect

Hot metal dust or chips from grinders can start a fire or
cause an explosion if mixed with wood dust or chips.
Also,
this dust collector CANNOT be used with sanders or
abrasive planners that have mechanical material feeds.
For clarification, see “NFPA standard 664, NFPA Standard
for the Prevention of Fires and Explosions in Wood
Processing and Woodworking Facilities 2007 Edition” for the
proper design, installation, operation and maintenance of
dust collectors and dust collection systems.
