3.4.3  HEATER WIRING

in cold or damp environments, the heater serves to 

prevent the electric solenoid valves from freezing 

due to cold temperatures or condensation. if 

optional solenoid valve heater is purchased, each 

4 solenoid valve enclosures will contain a 70-watt 

cartridge heater, 6, 8 and 10 solenoid valve 

enclosures will contain a 120-watt cartridge heater 

internally prewired to a thermostat.
the customer must provide a 100-130Vac, 

50/60Hz, 1 amp power to the heater circuit for each 

module. the power must be available to the module 

solenoid valve enclosure(s) at all times (even when 

the blower is shut down) to ensure temperature 

regulation inside each solenoid valve enclosure 

is continual. When multiple module solenoid 

valve enclosures with heaters are installed, daisy 

chain the wiring so that each heater will have 

100/115Vac, 50/60 Hz at all times. Make certain 

enough current is available to supply all heaters.

Example:

 if three solenoid valve enclosures are supplied 

with cartridge heaters, make certain the voltage 

supply can deliver 3 amps (1amp per heater). 

3.5  COMPRESSED AIR CONNECTION

    Do not allow water and/or oil from the compressed 

air system into the compressed air manifold 

reservoir. to ensure a clean, dry air supply, 

especially when the unit is installed outdoors, a 

water filter with automatic drain and a coalescing 

filter should be installed (refer to figure 10).

clean, dry, 90-110 PSiG (6.2-7.6 Bar) compressed air 

is required for the pulse cleaning system to function 

properly. compressed air consumption is noted on 

the uaS sales drawing. a shut-off valve, pressure 

regulator and pressure gauge should be installed close 

to the Sfc unit. uaS recommends dedicated oil and 

water removal filters be used to ensure clean, dry air is 

delivered to the pulse system. contact your local Sfc 

representative for information about uaS’ Pneumatic 

Valve assembly. refer to figure 10 for recommended 

compressed air piping and table 1 below for proper 

compressed air line sizing.

NOTE:

   using table 1, select the proper diameter 

compressed air line pipe to supply your dust 

collector. the final connection size is a female 

1” nPt fitting on each module.

NOTE:

   Purge the compressed air line to remove any 

debris prior to making the final connection to 

the Sfc compressed air manifold(s). apply 

pipe fitting sealant on all compressed air supply 

pipe fittings and connections.

3.6  ASSEMBLY OF OPTIONAL EQUIPMENT
3.6.1 BLOWER PACKAGE INSTALLATION

TIP OVER HAZARD

    anchor dust collector to concrete pad prior to 

installing blower assembly. Make certain all 

hardware is properly tightened.

if a top-mount blower package was ordered, read 

the manufacturer’s 

Installation and Operation Manual

 

completely before installing the blower. the blower 

Installation and Operation Manual

 is attached to the 

fan package. Perform all pre-installation checks prior 

to installing the blower.

TIP OVER HAZARD

    if blower package has a 20 HP (15 kW) motor or 

larger, ensure the blower support legs are installed 

beneath the clean air plenum of the module to  

which the blower will be mounted.

for top-mount blower packages of 20 HP (15 kW) or 

larger, an additional set of support legs is provided. 

the additional support legs must be mounted under the 

filter module supporting the blower package (refer to 

figure 11). Bolt the mounting plate to the bottom of the 

appropriate clean air plenum with the hardware provided. 

Bolt the leg assemblies to the mounting plate with the 

hardware provided. Secure leg assemblies to the concrete 

mounting pad with appropriate anchoring hardware.
remove the clean air plenum cover plate on top of the 

filter module and save the mounting hardware. ensure 

ribbon gasket remains on the unit. Lift blower package 

using safe, suitable means and position blower base holes 

over filter module holes with blower discharge pointing in 

the desired direction. Secure with bolt/washer assemblies 

previously removed. top-mount blower packages include 

a blower outlet damper. install blower damper to outlet of 

blower assembly with hardware provided.
if the blower package is a ground-mount blower, read 

the manufacturer’s 

Installation and Operation Manual

 

completely before installing the blower. the blower 

Installation and Operation Manual

 is attached to the 

fan package. Perform all pre-installation checks prior 

to installing the blower.
outlet ducting from the Sfc unit to the blower 

package can be connected to either the top or bottom 

clean air section access panel(s). it is recommended 

industry practice to provide vibration isolation between 

the blower inlet and the dust collector outlet ducting.
