Crossflow Dust Collector

5. ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION

Several types of standard electrical components can 

be installed to control and monitor your MCB system, 

ensuring proper cleaning of the cartridge filters.  

A blower motor starter (combination starter panel) 

is required to start and stop the system. The motor 

starter circuit should consist of a properly-sized, 

main fused disconnect or circuit breaker, short circuit 

protective device(s), contactor(s) and overload relay(s) 

for protection of the blower(s). A 115V/1PH/ 60Hz 

low voltage control (2 amp) circuit is required for the 

pulse control panel. Any one of the following control 

configurations can be used:

    •  Motor starter(s) with a Digital Pulse Monitor for 

continuous pulse (DPM). 

    •  Motor starter(s) with a Digital Pulse Control for 

setpoint pulse cleaning (DPC). 

    •  VFD with DPM for continuous pulse cleaning.
    • VFD with DPC for on-demand pulse cleaning.  

 Refer to UAS sales order to verify the number of motor 

branch circuits (number of modules) and the pulse 

control configuration purchased with your unit.

5.1 MOUNTING THE CONTROLS

Mount the combination starter panel for the fan motor 

control in a convenient location. The panel is provided 

by the customer, unless specifically ordered from UAS. 

Mounting hardware for a UAS combination starter panel 

is provided by the customer or contractor.
 Mount the cleaning panel in a convenient location. It is 

recommended that the controls be mounted on  

a wall or pedestal in a convenient area subject to 

minimal vibration and electrical noise. 

5.1.1  DIGITAL PULSE MONITOR (DPM) 

PANEL INSTALLATION

If your system was ordered with a Digital Pulse Monitor 

(DPM) panel, remove it from the box. Instructions for 

mounting and connecting the panel are available in the 

DPM/DPC Installation and Owner’s Manual. The panel 

should be installed within close proximity of the unit as 

shown in Figure 7.

5.1.2  DIGITAL PULSE CONTROL (DPC) 

PANEL INSTALLATION

If your system was ordered with a Digital Pulse Control 

(DPC) panel, remove it from the box. Instructions for 

mounting and connecting the panel are available in the 

DPM/DPC Installation and Owner’s Manual. The panel 

should be installed within close proximity of the unit as 

shown in Figure 7. The DPM/DPC panel requires field 

electrical connections.

5.1.3  FINAL CONNECTIONS FOR ALL GAUGE 

OPTIONS

For all pulse control panels, connect the black, plastic 

pressure tubing (25' [7.5 meters] provided by UAS) from 

the clean air plenum of the MCB to the low pressure 

port (clean air) on the panel. The high pressure post/

dirty air is vented to atmosphere.

5.2  ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS FOR 

BOOTH LIGHTS

Follow local codes for wiring lights in parallel. Light 

wiring and on/off switch are not provided by UAS. 

Mount the on/off switch in a convenient location.

5.3 SOLENOID VALVE ENCLOSURE WIRING

The solenoid valves at the MCB must be wired correctly 

to the pulse control panel. Refer to Figure 8 when 

making connections from the pulse control panel to the 

solenoid valve enclosure(s). The system pulses with "1" 

as the first pulse, "2" as the second pulse, "3" as the 

third pulse, etc.
Unless specified on the UAS sales order, the customer 

will supply interconnecting material (conduit, wiring, 

etc.) from the pulse controls to the dust collector.

6.  OPERATION

6.1 START-UP

1.  Inspect the installation area and make certain no 

tools, parts, etc. have been left on or inside the  

MCB unit. Check each blower discharge  

to make certain it is free from all debris.

  D A N G E R

ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD

All electrical work should be performed by a qualified 

electrician in accordance with local electrical codes. 

Disconnect electrical power before installing or 

servicing any electrical component.

C A U T I O N

Avoid mounting the cleaning panel on the collector due 

to vibration generated from blower assembly and the 

pulsing system.

 

!

  WA R N I N G

Never operate the dust collector without the front 

access panel properly installed.

Prior to unit start-up, all installation set-up instructions 

must be completed as specified by this manual and 

DPM/DPC Controls Installation and Operation Manual

as well as any manuals supplied by other equipment 

manufacturers, as they apply to your dust collector.
