Amtech AV AutoVent Weldcell Collector User Manual

4. INSPECTION

4.1 Upon receipt of unit, the AutoVent collector, welding cell, and any optional components must be checked for damage or potential loss incurred during shipping. Damage must be noted on the bill of lading and a claim filed with the carrier immediately. CLEAN AIR INDUSTRIES should be notified immediately, regarding any missing/lost items/components/parts.

5. THEORY OF OPERATION

5.1 The AutoVent collector features (usually) a custom designed welding cell and a factory assembled collector. The system is designed to enhance the air quality both for a relatively confined area (where an individual/s can performing welding or grinding or other dust generating procedures) and the area surrounding the welding cell. During normal operation, air flows into the collector, through the (optional) metal baffles and (optional) metal mesh filters. The air then moves between the cartridge filters and towards the blower. A portion of the dust will collect on the surface of the cartridge media as the air passes through the filter media, and into the blower. The dust that collects on the cartridge media will periodically be dislodged by the reverse jet pulse cleaning system. This system is electronically controlled and is configured to monitor the differential pressure across the filter media. When the differential pressure reaches the adjustable set point, a brief burst of compressed air will be released into the core of the cartridge filter to dislodge the dust from the filter surface. The dislodged dust gradually migrates towards the settling chamber (dust drawer or hopper), for subsequent manual removal through the dust drawer or hopper.

6. FEATURES

6.1 Standard

6.1.1 DUST DRAWER – The dust drawer provides an area where dust can accumulate and easily be removed.

6.1.2 FIRE RETARDANT CARTRIDGE FILTERS – The filters have been treated with a chemical to “retard” against combustion; however, the cartridge filters are NOT “fire proof”, that is, under certain conditions the filters will combust. 6.1.3 TURBO DIGITAL PULSE CONTROL – This electronic device constantly monitors the differential pressure across the cartridge filters and, when the programmable set point is met, automatically reverse pulse cleans the cartridge filters. The unit also offers a cycle down feature, whereby the filters are cleaned offline on shutdown.

6.2. Optional

6.2.1 AFH/AFS - After filter housings are available with either HEPA or Safety filters. HEPA filters are 99.97% efficient at specified flow/pressure rates and Safety filters are 95% efficient at specified flow/pressure rates. 6.2.2 EXPLOSION VENT - An Explosion Vent is designed to relieve rapid pressure build up, as is experienced from an explosion within the dust collector. If your explosion vent should experience a burst, then contact your CLEAN AIR INDUSTRIES Distributor to order a replacement. 6.2.3 FIRE SUPPRESSION – Fire suppression is available in a variety of technologies. Fire suppression systems should be installed by qualified individuals and in accordance with any local, state, or national codes/regulations/laws (if any).
