INSTALLATION
The system’s weight must be taken into account when choosing the proper installation method
(see specification). Follow all applicable building and electrical codes.
The RH60 Series Hood Assembly comes with (4) eyelets for rod hanging the system or can be
floor mounted with optional column support assembly. When using the eyelets for hanging, it is
critical that you do not angle the support rods, they must be installed straight above the eyelet to
maintain the integrity of the eyebolt. See Figure 2 below. For complete Assembly drawing and
parts list, refer to appendix.
Mounting materials must be able to support the weight of the air cleaner plus the additional
weight of the material collected. Consult your local building code for proper installation methods
and materials. Failure to use the proper materials could result in injury or damage equipment
and will void the warranty.
HEIGHT REQUIREMENTS
To insure worker and building safety, Industrial Maid recommends that RH series hoods be
mounted a MINIMUM of 5 ft or greater above the highest point of arc in welding applications.
The hoods are designed with a low intake velocity and spark baffle to avoid capturing sparks and
flammable debris generated during the welding process. Failure to maintain a safe distance
from the welding arc can result in unsafe operating conditions, injury or property damage.
Consult with your distributor , Insurance underwriter and local fire authority to insure a safe
installation.
