SPCL36104-S Suction System
9.7.2 Band Adjustment
9.7.2.1 Horizontal Slot Pattern Reclaimer and Band (refer to Figure 4)
Rotate the band by sliding in one (1) direction until 1/16” of the opening is
created between the band and Reclaimer slots. Place a pencil mark on the band
and a corresponding reference mark on the Reclaimer body.
9.7.2.2 Vertical Slot Pattern in Reclaimer/Solid Band (See Figure 4)
Slide the band up on the Reclaimer body exposing approximately 1/16” of
opening between the band and each Reclaimer slot. Place several reference
pencil marks around the Reclaimer at the bottom edge of the band.
9.7.3 Operate the blast system for one (1) hour to create dust to coat the filter bags. See
Section 3.6.
9.7.4 Press the red “SYSTEM OFF” pushbutton. Check the Dust Collector Waste Drum for
good reusable media.
9.7.5 If no media is found in the waste, adjust the Reclaimer metering band 1/16” exposing
more Reclaimer body slot area. Make a new corresponding reference mark on the
Reclaimer body.
NOTE:
Repeat 9.7.2 through 9.7.5 until media is present in the Dust Collector waste.
9.7.6 When only small amounts of media have been found in the Dust Collector waste, the
band is adjusted correctly. If large quantities of media are found in the Dust Collector
waste, move the Reclaimer metering band back to the last reference mark on the
Reclaimer body.
9.7.7 As a new system is used, the filters become coated (seasoned) and air in the media
recovery system will decrease to normal operational flow. If media again becomes
present in the Dust Collector waste, repeat 9.7.4 through 9.7.6.
9.7.8 Some dust may be present in the Storage Hopper after normal operation. The
Reclaimer slot openings may have to be opened in several more fine adjustments to
remove this dust. This is a final fine adjustment to tune the Reclaimer. Press the red
“SYSTEM OFF” pushbutton, increase the slot opening the metering band 1/16”.
Operate the system for one (1) hour and repeat this step until only small amounts of
dust are present in the Storage Hopper.
