7.6. Precoating of new filter cartridges
Before the first commissioning new filter cartridges can be pre-treat with precoat consumable. The
precoat consumable assists against a "caking" of extracted particles on the filter surface and thus
prolongs the life of the new filter cartridge
Unlike with other maintenance work, this step must be carried out with the system switched on and
operating. This is necessary to allow the filter aid to disperse on the surface of the filter cartridges
through suction.
CAUTION
On contact the precoat consumable can be hazardous to the
respiratory tract and cause skin irritation or eye irritation.
Observe the listed manufacturer instructions provided:
Handling:
Avoid the formation of dust!
Storage:
Seal the container tightly before storage!
Respiratory protect:
Dust mask without protection level!
Hand protection:
Protective gloves in cloth, rubber or leather!
Eye protection:
Safety glasses with side shields!
Body protection:
Anti-static work shoes!
CAUTION
During operation of the device an automatic cleaning can take place. This involves the
risk of a sudden jet of high-pressure air and excessive dust formation at the point of
entry of the filter aid.
At first make sure that there is no compressed air in the compressed air tank. Please refer to
the chapter "Reset to factory settings". Before switching the device back on, disconnect the
compressed air hose from the device.
●
Provide sufficient filter aid. We recommend using
10 grams
for each
square metre
of the
filter
surface
. The filter aid is available at TEKA (see list of spare parts).
●
Choose the capture point in the suction pipe that is the closest to the filter cartridges. E.g. an
inspection flap can be used as a capture point.
●
Switch the device on.
●
Let the filter aid bit by bit be sucked in via the capture point.
