INSTALLATION

  All external equipment connected to the inlet, outlet or discharge 

(e.g. ducting, rotary valve) should be correctly sealed. This can be achieved 

by applying a continuous 5 mm bead of sealing compound to the mounting 

surface, along each side of the hole pattern. For non-Donaldson Torit 

equipment please also check supplier’s IOM manual for any specific 

requirements.

Unloading and transport to location

  Before unloading, remove all packing and strapping.

A crane is recommended for the unloading, transport and installation of the dust 

collector.

  Connect lifting sling to the lifting lugs with clevis pins and distribute loads 

equally. Use spreader bar if necessary.

In case of inside installation, a vented dust collector will be provided with a special roof 

flange. This allows the mounting of a blow off channel (max 3m) around the bursting 

panel. Channel will divert escaping pressure outside the premises.
Ensure blow off channel is mounted on roof flange with the pre-drilled hole on the 

same side as the sensor brackets of the bursting panel. This hole is used to pass the 

cable of the sensor through the blow off channel.
