Commercial Series Cyclone Owners Manual

Cleaning
The Cyclone Separator, given its unique function, must be periodically emptied and the solid parts that have
been eliminated must be removed.
Cleaning the Cylinder-holder plates
Given the geometric arrangement of the cyclones within the suction chamber, it is possible that during adjust
-
ment some suspended particles may be deposited before being centrifuged. The side seal doors allow for ac
-
cess to the suction chamber for ash removal.
Cleaning the suction plenum
The fumes, after having passed through the cyclones, are collected in an upper plenum on which the fan
connection fitting is located. The reduction in speed, consequent of the passage from the return tubes, of a
restricted diameter, to the plenum chamber, may cause the depositing of residual ash on the plenum plate. To
clean the plate, remove the fitting with the valve that connects the filter to the fan.
Cleaning the fan
The fan will need to be checked and cleaned regularly, to keep the system running properly and to prolong the
life span of the parts. Disconnect power to the fan before cleaning or servicing, and allow to cool. Refer to the
manual for the fan for proper cleaning procedures.
WARNING!
BEFORE CLEANING THE SEPARTOR, ENSURE THAT THE
POWER IS DISCONNECTED
