Installation

 

 

 

 

 

The AD500 iQ has been designed to remove and filter fume 
containing potentially hazardous particulate and gases 
generated during manufacturing processes. Such hazardous 
substances are captured within a multistage filtration 
system after which the cleaned air is returned to the 
workplace.

 

Fume Capture Methods 

The fume is normally captured by 1 of 3 methods.

 

 

Flexible arm/ Nozzle

 

 

Enclosures

 

 

Cabinets

 

General Guidelines for a successful installation

 

 

Keep duct run length to a minimum

 

 

 

Avoid sharp bends / turns in the ductwork 

 

Avoid multiple bends / turns in the ductwork 

 

Use a larger diameter duct where able 

 

Position the capture device as close as possible to 
the marking point. (if used on high speed lines, 
position the capture device slightly downstream)  

Flexible Arm & Nozzle Extraction 

The stay put arm should be mounted as close as possible to 
the marking point using the horseshoe clips. Unscrew the 
push fit connector from the other side of the flexible hose. 
Cut the flexible hose to suit the distance back to the 
extractor connection and push onto the extractor inlet. 

Purge air should be kept to a minimum, where possible, to 
prevent the fume being blown away from the nozzle. 
High speed bottling lines may need bigger scoops or nozzles 
both sides of the bottles because of the turbulence caused 
by the speed of the bottles. 
 

Moving products

 

For applications where the product to be marked is moving 
past the stationary laser head the capture nozzle should be 
positioned as close as possible to the marking area on the 
side the product is moving towards. 

 

 

 

 

 

Enclosures 

The extraction hose and nozzle can be attached to the 
enclosure surrounding the marking zone provided that the 
extraction point is within 50-75mm of the marking point. 

 

 
 

 

 

 

 

 

 
Cabinets 

Cabinets normally have a 75mm 0r 100mm spigot for fume 
extraction. For best performance use the same diameter 
hose as the spigot and reduce at the extractor end if 
necessary. 

Keep the hose run as short as possible. 

 

 

 

 

 

Connection to extraction unit 
All ductwork should be installed and connected to the 
extraction unit before the iQ system is turned on.

 

 

 
Exhausting filtered air outside 

If requested your iQ extraction unit will have been fitted 
with an exhaust outlet spigot. This provides a connection 
point for exhaust pipework to be fitted. It is important to 
keep any ducting to a minimum, in order to reduce back 
pressure within the system.
