AW16000 - Instruction Manual
Install conduit, and wire the exhauster motor per instruction on the motor plate, and the motor starter (for 3 PH
wiring), or terminal strip (for 1 PH wiring) as shown on the schematic.
Install conduit, and wire 115 volt power to the reverse pulse control panel as shown on the schematic.
after the wiring is completed, observe the subsequent warning, and check the motor rotation. To check rotation,
jog the starter (momentarily turn switch on and off ). This will cause the motor to rotate slowly. look through the
slots in the fan housing on top of the motor where rotation of the fan can easily be observed. Proper rotation is
indicated by the arrow on the exhauster housing. The fan should rotate toward the exhauster outlet
WARnInG : do not look into the exhauster outlet while the paddle wheel is turning.
Injury to the eye or face could occur from objects being ejected from the exhauster.
Check the amperage on initial start up. If the motor draws excessive amperage, gradually close the damper until
the amperage is within the specifications shown on the motor plate. The damper is located on the exhauster
outlet.
Ground Dust Collector
To prevent static electricity build up, attach an external grounded wire from an earth ground to the grounding
lug located on the rear wall of the dust collector.
Compressed Air Connections
NOTE: For maximum filter life and efficiency, the pulse air source should be 30% relative humidity or less, and be
free of any oil contaminants. If line air does not meet this requirement, an air dryer is recommended.
Connect a 1» or larger air hose to the pressure regulator located (Picture C, page 17) on the pulse manifold inlet.
an isolation valve should be installed at the air source to enable depressurization for service. If rigid pipe is used
for the air line, a flexible section of hose must be used at the connection, to enable the top access door to swing
open for service.
WaRNING if twist-on type air hose couplings are used, they must be secured by safety pins or wires to prevent
accidental disconnection while under pressure. Hose disconnection while under pressure could cause serious
injury.
WARnInG all persons operating this equipment must be made aware of the hazards
of abrasive blasting. Prolonged exposure to any dust could result in serious lung
disease and death. Short term ingestion of toxic materials, such as lead dust or dust
from other heavy metals and corrosives, could cause serious respiratory injury or
death. Identify all materials that are to be removed by blasting, and obtain a Materials
Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for the blast media. If lead coating or other toxic materials
are being removed by the blasting process, HEPA after-filters must be used for those
applications.
