7. You are now ready to begin using the unit for
production. Press the “Start Fan” button on the
control panel and turn the “Clean” button to the
on position.
IMPORTANT
It is recommended that you document the static
pressure in critical locations throughout your process
when the filters are clean and your system is running
as intended. This will aid in troubleshooting your
installation and allow you to accurately predict when
it is time to change your filters.
Initially, some dust may discharge from the unit and
may last for several minutes. As the filters season and
begin to build up a dust cake, the discharge should
remain visibly clear.
If you are operating the unit in short intervals, it may be
necessary to leave the cleaning button in the off
position during the first several intervals until a
sufficient dust cake is obtained.
4.2 SHUT-DOWN AND FILTER CLEANING
Press the “Stop Fan & Clean” button on the control
panel with the selector switch in the “Clean” position.
This will place the SDC off line and initiate a
cleaning sequence. The unit will pause for
approximately 70 seconds to allow the blower to coast
down to a speed where it is no longer pulling a
significant amount of air through the cabinet.
At the end of the 70 seconds, the shaker motor will
be on line. The bags will be shaken at a high frequency,
low amplitude vibration for 35 seconds, and will
dislodge collected dust from the bags. The dust will
then gravitate to the hopper and collect in the drum
below the unit.
If required, this sequence can be repeated by pressing
the “Stop Fan & Clean” button again. This will initiate a
cleaning sequence after a 70-second delay.
5. SERVICE
Before servicing dust collector:
• Wear appropriate protective clothing.
• Disconnect electrical power to the unit and
control panel.
• Collected dust may be hazardous. Consult
proper authorities for handling and disposal.
• Collected dust may be a potential fire hazard.
Welding, grinding or operations involving open
flames should not be performed without fire
protection measures in place. Refer to Section
1 of this manual for additional safety
precautions.
• Disposal of collected dust must be according to
federal, state and local regulations and all
appropriate authorities.
5.1 FILTER REMOVAL AND REPLACEMENT
To remove the SDC filter assembly(s), first open the
filter access door. The filter is held in place by a cambar
mechanism located on each side of the filter cassette.
This mechanism is illustrated in Figure 11.
When in the locked or sealed position, the cambar
handles will be in a horizontal position towards the
center of the filter assembly. To unlock the filter, each
cambar handle must be rotated down 90 degrees.
The filter will become loose and drop into a position
from which it can be removed from out of the unit.
