Collector Location
Donaldson Torit equipment is not
designed to support site installed
ducts, interconnecting piping, or electrical
services. All ducts, piping, or electrical
services must be adequately supported to
prevent severe personal injury and/or property
damage.
When hazardous conditions or materials are
present, consult with local authorities for the
proper location of the collector.
Dust collection equipment may reach peak
sound pressure levels above 80 dB (A). Noise
levels should be considered when selecting
collector location.
Locate the collector to ensure easy access to electrical
and compressed air connections, to simplify solids
collection container handling and routine maintenance,
and to ensure the straightest inlet and outlet ducts.
Provide clearance from heat sources and avoid any
interference with utilities when selecting the location.
Foundations or Support Framing
Prepare the foundation or support framing in the
selected location. Foundation or support framing must
comply with local code requirements and may require
engineering.
Foundation and support framing must be capable of
supporting dead, live, wind, seismic and other applicable

foundation or support framing.
The collector is suitable for either indoor or outdoor
installations. Reference the Rating and Specification
