8.3 If the unit should include a Leg/Hopper assembly, then position the main body in the planned installation location. Assemble the leg kit to the hopper as illustrated in the “typical” drawing on the cover page of this manual (if more detailed instructions are necessary, then contact your Amtech distributor). Anchor the Leg/Hopper assembly to the concrete floor using 3/4” tapered anchor bolts, 1 per anchor pad for a total of 4 each, tapered anchor bolts. 8.4 Use silicone or equivalent high quality sealant on all flanges and place the collector on the Leg/Hopper assembly. Using the supplied bolts, nuts and washers secure the collector to the Leg/Hopper assembly. A drift pin or alignment tool will aid in the aligning the holes. 8.5 Should the collector include a Cradle/Hopper assembly for suspension from overhead, locate and attach the Cradle/Hopper assembly to adequate overhead structure. Be certain the overhead structure and suspension connectors are capable of easily handling the total weight of the collector, all attached components/options and the maximum added weight due to dust load and personnel with a factor of safety that is acceptable to the responsible party of the equipment/building.
NOTE: Should questions arise concerning total weight, consult your AMTECH Distributor or AMTECH Factory.
8.6 Should the collector include a factory installed dust drawer, position the collector in the planned location and secure it in place using 3/4” tapered anchor bolts, 1 per anchor pad for a total of 4 each.
9.0 COMPRESSED AIR SUPPLY
NOTE: The compressed air installation should be performed by a qualified installer and in accordance with local, state, and national codes/regulations/laws (if any).
9.1 The compressed air supply is used to clean the dust coated cartridge filters with a high pressure reverse jet pulse. A 2” diameter (minimum 1.5” diameter) dedicated supply with a minimum of 90 PSI and a maximum of 100 PSI is recommended. If a supply line smaller than 1.5” is used, then a 30-gallon accumulator tank should be installed with a 2” line from the tank to the collector manifold. The largest supply line available should feed the accumulator tank. The unit has a 2” diameter connection. 9.2 The air supply line to the accumulator tank must include water, oil and particulate filtration. Water and, especially, oil in the compressed air will significantly reduce the effectiveness of the reverse jet pulse cleaning by destroying the cartridge filters and causing excessive differential pressure across the filters, which results in greatly reduced air flow along with premature filter replacement.
NOTE: The air line MUST be free of oil and water to avoid failure of the cartridge filters.
9.3 A 200 PSI gage must be installed to monitor air pressure. Prior to the final connection of the air line to the collector manifold, the air line should be purged. This will remove debris that could damage the valves and block the nozzles in the blow pipes.
