8.0 TESTING FOR GROUND CONTINUITY
WARNING:
Test the electrical continuity of the vacuum cleaner system before use.
This will ensure that any static electricity that is produced while
vacuuming will be discharged to ground.
WARNING:
Use only original replacement parts from the manufacturer or from one
of its authorized distributors.
An ohm-meter is required to perform the following electrical continuity test.
a. Disconnect the air supply hose from the compressed air supply.
b. Make sure that all the latches on the vacuum cleaner system are fastened.
c. Disconnect the suction hose from the vacuum cleaner system.
d. Connect the air supply hose to the compressed air inlet on the vacuum cleaner.
e. Using an ohm-meter test for the electrical continuity of the air supply hose from one metallic
end to the other. A reading of 10 ohms or less is satisfactory to ensure proper grounding
and static dissipation.
f. Using the ohm-meter test for the electrical continuity of the vacuum cleaner from the end of
the air supply hose to the suction intake of the vacuum cleaner. A reading of 10 ohms or
less is satisfactory to ensure proper grounding and static dissipation.
g. Using the ohm-meter test for the electrical continuity of the suction hose from one end to
the other. a reading of 10
9
ohms or less is satisfactory to ensure proper grounding and static
dissipation.
IMPORTANT: If you obtain a reading higher than what is indicated above it is possible
your vacuum cleaner system does not ensure a proper dissipation of
static electricity and needs some maintenance.
