5.4 Maintaining the dust discharge
valve
Dust discharge valves should be checked
according to dust concentration in the sur-
roundings and preferably daily at heavy dust
occurence. Remove any dust deposits by
squeezing the valve (see Fig. 6). The valve
must be free and should not strike anything.
Replace damaged valves.
6. Storage of filter elements
Protect stored filter elements from
exposure to dust, moisture and dam-
age. Store vertically, preferably in their
original packaging.
It is practical to keep at least one replace-
ment element in stock for each filter element
required.
