1 Scope of manual
This manual covers set-up, operation and maintenance of the Suction Blast Cabinets Pulsar II.
2 Application and restrictions
Pulsar Suction Cabinets are designed to utilize most blast media < 0,8mm. There are additional require-
ments as stated below:
−
S
TEEL
:
Metallic media may require additional modifications, which must be reconfirmed with the manufac-
turer
−
ALUMINIUM OXIDE
:
Aluminium oxide, silicon carbide and garnet are extremely aggressive blast media that may acceler-
ate wear. When using these blast media the most exposed parts of the cabinet should be equipped
with wear resistant materials and boron carbide nozzles. (See optional accessories in chapter 7.1).
−
G
LASS BEADS
:
Most beads are treated to ensure free flow operation even under moderate to high humidity. Glass
beads subjected to excessive moisture may clump and therefore the compressed air must be dry
(the use of an after cooler is recommended). They may be reused after thorough drying and breaking
up of the clumps.

:
When using media finer than 60
µ
m (240 mesh) a special cyclonee is recommended, so that an ex-
treme loss of media can be avoided. The same is valid when using light weight media like plastic or
other organic abrasives (nut-shells, starch).
The cabinets and controls are designed for a maximum working pressure of 7bars . Higher working pres-
sures only for special designs. Pulsar II cabinets are designed for discontinuous blasting activities (because
of cartridge filter size). A trouble-free operation can only be guaranteed if:
⇒
original parts from Clemco / Zero are used.
⇒
the equipment is compatible and designed according to the operating conditions
⇒
the blast cabinet is operated and maintained according to our instructions.
