M AINTENANCE C LEANING THE I NTAKE S PARK B AFFLES
The Reverse Flow TM spark baffles and metal mesh spark baffles are designed for inhibit and reduce the energy of sparks. Because these bafflers and filters are the first in line concerning air flow, they become soiled by welding smoke and need to be cleaned periodically. How often they need to be cleaned is dependent upon the amount and type of welding performed. Feedback from welding instructors, which we greatly value, indicates that many welding labs clean them every six to twelvemonths. It is recommends that educational facilities inspect the baffles every quarter, or every 3 months, and clean them as needed. It is recommended that the baffles can be washed with a garden hose or, if carefully used, a pressure washer. Be sure they are dry before placing them back into the Weld Station. Many welding instructors assert the easiest and most convenient way to clean the baffles is by first simply shaking the loose debris from the baffles, and then spraying them with a compressed air hose. Whatever method you prefer, it is IMPORTANT that the baffles be cleaned periodically. If the baffles are not cleaned, they can affect the performance of the Weld Station, restricting of air flow and reducing the performance quality. Examine the metal mesh filters at the inlet of the unit. These filters should be washed when they become visibly dirty / contaminated. How often they need to be cleaned is dependent upon the amount of welding performed and the given application. If they are not cleaned, they can affect the performance of the unit by reducing air flow.
