Horizontal downflow pleated cartridge dust collector
13
10.3 Compressed air connection
WARNING!
Compressed air must be free of oil and humidity.
Contamination of compressed air may result in a poor
cartridge filtration, decreased cleaning and reduced life time.
Purge the compressed air line to remove any debris prior to
connecting air line to the dust collector air tank.
Shut off the compressed air system and purge all air lines
prior to servicing or maintaining the collector. Locate the
pneumatic air tank(s) behind the MAXIFLO dust collector.
Connect air line to the tank(s) using pipe seal. Check for
possible leak(s).
Note :
The use of an air dryer is strongly recommended to avoid any problems related to
humidity in the compressed air system. Install a shut off valve, pressure regulator and filter on
the compressed air line. Those components are not supplied by A.Q.C. unless required by the
customer. All components must meet a maximum 90 psig pressure. NEVER ALLOW MORE THAN
100 PSIG. Damages to components may occur.
10.4 Ventilation ducting
1.
The dust collector should be installed as close as possible to the source of dust in order to
minimize the length of ventilation ducting.
2 .
Do not install short radius elbows.
3.
Install taps with 30 degrees inlet or less.
4.
Do not install straight T taps.
5.
Join ducting using tapping screws and caulking for a proper seal.
