Cartridge Dust Collector

Collected dust may be hazardous. Consult proper
authorities for handling and disposal.
4. The filter monitor gauge should read between
0.1" and 0.5" w.g. while unit is operating with
clean filters.
5. The discharge plenum on the V Series collector
can be rotated in 90
Ý
increments to direct the
discharge air in multiple directions. The discharge
housing will be factory installed with the discharge
pointing towards the floor as shown in Figure 7.
Collecting Particles
1. Locate the unit, arm and hood in the best position
to collect contaminants as generated by the
process or operation, and where operator
interference is minimal.
2. Position the hood to minimize the influence of
cross drafts from outside air sources or other
operations.
3. Position the hood slightly higher than the source,
with the face of the hood approximately 45° from
horizontal. The hood shape is designed for high-
velocity pick up. It should be located as close to
the source as practical and no further than 14-16"
from the contaminant source.
3. Check diaphragm valves to ensure proper pulse
cleaning. With the cleaning cycle activated, the valve
should pulse at approximately 10-second intervals.
Remove lid of control panel enclosure to view the
timer.
4. Check the filter monitor gauge at start-up. The
cleaning system should be activated when the gauge
has increased 0.5" w.g. above the start-up pressure
drop. Allow unit to pulse clean until the original
reading is achieved or until the gauge reading will
not decrease after six consecutive pulses.
5.2 CHECKLIST
1. Check the clean air outlet. Discharge air should
remain visibly clean. If a leak should develop, it will
be first noticed after a cleaning pulse as a puff of
dust.
2. Check pressure drop on the pressure gauge
(see Figure 6). Pressure drop across elements is
considered normal between 0.5-5.0" w.g. Pressure
drop will generally read between 1-2" for “seasoned”
filters.
The following procedure requires access to an area of
the unit where high voltage is present. Access should
be restricted to qualified personnel.

3. Turn the unit on by pushing the "Power" rocker
switch to the ON position (refer to Figure 6). On
3-phase units, fan rotation will need to be verified
by matching fan rotation with the rotation decal on
the blower housing. Rotation should be clockwise
as viewed from the motor or drive side. Any two
motor starter leads should be reversed if the
rotation is not correct.
