1. Only competent, safety conscious personnel should have access to the area.
2. Work crews should consist of 2 or more people.
3. All areas below the collector must be “OFF-LIMITS” when overhead work is performed.
4. Objects lifted by crane or hoist must be securely fastened and carefully handled to prevent
injury.
Maintenance Procedures
With sound periodic and routine maintenance programs you will receive a long service life from
your DIVERSITECH collector. Schedules should be changed as a result of experience,
determined after a reasonable period of operation.
IMPORTANT: Please remove the spark baffle filters in each booth on a monthly basis and
wash with detergent. Not cleaning these filters could result in a fire.
Routine maintenance consists of the following:
1. Observe the filter differential pressure at least once every 8 hours of operation. Each
application will vary. Refer to “Comments Filter Differential Pressure during Operation” at the
beginning of page 7.
2. Assure the collected dust is removed from the dust storage container as required.
3. Assure the predetermined cleaning schedule is proper to maintain pressure differential
equilibrium.
4. Confirm the reverse jet pulse cleaning takes place at the predetermined schedule.
5. Observe compressed air supply to confirm pressure of 80 PSI minimum.
6. Perform general house keeping on collector and surrounding area.
Periodic maintenance consists of the following:
1. Replace filters when reverse jet pulse cleaning is no longer effective to reduce differential
pressure to the normal operating range.
2. Clean the internal parts of the reverse jet pulse control with a quality electrical cleaning
chemical.
3. Clean the internal components of the fan control.
4. Remove any accumulated dust from the pressure port that is connected to the Magnehelic
Gage or Reverse Jet Pulse Control or both. This is located inside the dust collector on the dirty
air side.
5. Replace the cartridge filter caps after every 4th filter change or before if failure of gasket
seal occurs.
