2.2 EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION
this section will briefly describe each component in the
SHM and its role in the system’s operation.
Inlet Sump
Most units will include an inlet sump with multiple 10˝
inlets where all incoming dirty air will enter. the sump
provides an expanded volume allowing contaminant to
drop out of the airsteam reducing loading on the filters. a
1-1/2” fnPt coupling is included at the peak of a sloped
bottom allowing the collected contaminant to be reclaimed
or drained.
Filter Cabinet
each unit has a filter access door that provides access
to both the prefilter and primary filter for service and
replacement. the mesh prefilter rests on tracks near the
bottom of the cabinet. the PeacH coalescing filter option
are mounted on a removable cassette secured by a cam
bar mechanism. the fiberglass bag option uses a hanging
rod system.
