2. INTRODUCTION 2.1 Amtech Streamer Ambient Towers are designed to improve the air quality in a facility by removing airborne smoke, fume, and dust from the airstream. The Amtech Streamer comes in an 8-cartridge version, with a corresponding air flow rate of 6,000 CFM, with the ability to upgrade to 7,500 CFM. Multiple collectors can be placed within a facility to achieve the required flow rate to effectively filter the air in the facility or work area. The Amtech Streamer Ambient Tower provides a relatively safe workstation. However, given the combustible nature of welding fume/smoke and the inherent generation of sparks from grinding, prudent operation of the system and periodic maintenance is essential. Clean Air Industries Spark Eliminator inlet plenum is a recommended option to use on the Amtech Streamer Ambient Tower when sparks are present in the dust collection process. 2.2 Installation is complete after: • The collector unit is positioned appropriately and secured to the floor. • Electrical power is connected. • Fire detection/suppression systems connected, if equipped. • Compressed air is connected to the air reservoir. 2.3 MOST FILTERING MEDIA IS COMBUSTIBLE EVEN WHEN IT IS TREATED WITH FLAME RETARDANT MATERIALS. PRECAUTIONS SHOULD BE TAKEN TO PREVENT BURNING MATERIAL FROM COMING INTO CONTACT WITH THE FILTERING MEDIA. 2.4 FIRE OR SMOKE DETECTION DEVICES, AND APPROPRIATE EXTINGUISHING SYSTEMS, MAY BE REQUIRED, DEPENDING ON LOCAL CODES AND AUTHORITIES. PLEASE VERIFY WITH THE APPROPRIATE AGENCIES WHICH MAY INCLUDE, BUT MAY NOT BE LIMITED TO THE FIRE DEPARTMENT, INSURANCE COMPANY, AND LOCAL, STATE, OR FEDERAL AUTHORITIES. SHOULD YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE CONTACT THE MANUFACTURER OR HER/HIS REPRESENTATIVE PRIOR TO OPERATING THE EQUIPMENT. 2.5 It is imperative that the equipment be verified, cleaned, and properly maintained on a continual basis to ensure proper and safe operation. If help is needed with collector maintenance, please contact your Clean Air Industries distributor for assistance. 2.6 All employees should be familiar with the on/off controls. No welding, grinding, cutting, should occur while the filters of the dust collector are exposed. Ensure that the appropriate inlet components, especially spark baffle filters, are cleaned, maintained, and always secured to the unit while in operation. Also, ensure that appropriate fire extinguishing equipment is in the area and readily accessible. 2.7 Good judgment should be always utilized. If you are unsure about the system components or function, please contact your Clean Air Industries distributor for further information. 2.8 ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT SAFETY COMES FIRST!

4. INSPECTION 4.1 Upon receipt of the Amtech Streamer Ambient Tower, all 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 upon receipt of the unit, regarding any missing or lost components. 5. THEORY OF OPERATION 5.1 The Amtech Streamer Ambient Tower features a plug and play setup for general dust collection ambient applications. During normal operation, air flows into the collector through the louvered inlet, or the optional Spark Eliminator plenum. Once into the filter cabinet, the air is filtered through the cartridge filter, allowing clean air to pass through the blower and out through the multi-directional outlet of the Amtech Streamer Ambient Tower. A portion of the dust will collect on the surface of the cartridge media as the air passes through the filter, 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 usually 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, which can either be a drum system or dust tray system.

7. INSTALLATION
7.1 Initial Considerations
7.1.1 The location of the unit(s) must be planned to maximize effective operation and simultaneously afford access for service/maintenance, while keeping safety considerations at the forefront. Explosions and fires in collection systems are not uncommon; therefore, systems should be designed and placed with those two aspects in mind and in accordance with any local, state, or national fire/safety codes/regulations. Thought should also be given to electrical and compressed air sources, keeping in mind that the collector will need to be connected with electricity, compressed air, and fire detection/suppression systems, if equipped. Should additional questions arise, or assistance is needed, consult your Clean Air Industries distributor. 7.1.2 After installation, access/clearance must be available to service the following components:
1. Filters 2. Blower Assembly 3. Compressed Air Valves 4. Controls 5. Dust Trays or Drums
Page 8
sales@clean-air.com
1-866-665-1829
www.clean-air.com
7.2 Mechanical NOTE: All mechanical installation must be performed by a qualified installer and in accordance with local, state, and national codes/regulations/laws (if any). 7.2.1 Ensure that the Amtech Streamer Ambient Tower is placed in the best location. Ensure that there is enough serviceable area around the dust collector. It is vital to have at least 36 inches in front of the collector to be able to open the inlets for filter changes. 7.2.2 Ensure that all bolted connections are sealed with a proper sealant. 100% silicone, or other equivalent sealants will be acceptable. 7.2.3 After placement, the collector stand should be secured to the ground with wedge anchor bolts, or equivalent. NOTE: Should questions arise concerning total weight, consult your Clean Air Industries Distributor or Clean Air Industries Factory. 7.3 Electrical NOTE: All electrical installation must be performed by a qualified electrician and in accordance with local, state, and national codes/regulations/laws (if any). 7.3.1 The blower motor is typically configured to operate with 208-230/460 volt, 60 cycles, and 3 phase electrical power, unless specified otherwise with the equipment order. A magnetic motor starter, with overload protection is attached to the unit. The voltage for which the starter control (and motor) is configured should be labeled on the starter control box. The electrical connections to the box (and wiring) must be sized and selected in accordance with local, state, and national codes. 7.3.2 Nominal Full Load Amperes are as follows:
Full Load Current Chart

460VAC
575VAC
10HP 15HP
32.2 48.3
28 42

11 17
7.3.3 The blower is designed to rotate clockwise when viewed from the motor side (top of blower). If the blower is running in reverse, the air volume will be approximately 50% of the designed air volume and excessive noise will be generated. Therefore, once the motor is wired, check motor rotation by energizing the blower motor for a brief instant (“JOG”). If direction is reversed, then correct. Switching two (2) of the 3-phase connections on the output side will reverse the direction of rotation. 7.3.4 If your unit is equipped with the Turbo Digital Pulse Control, then this feature will need to be connected to a 120VAC power source that is independent of the blower power. A 24VDC pulse controller is available as an option. Power consumption is less than 50 Watts. 7.3.5 If your unit is equipped with any optional electrical features, then these will need to be connected to the appropriate power source. NOTE: Instructions that detail the operation of the Turbo Digital Pulse Control is available under separate cover. A copy of the instructions should have been supplied with the unit.
Page 9
sales@clean-air.com
1-866-665-1829
www.clean-air.com
NOTE: The digital reverse jet pulse controller with “Pulse on Shut down” feature must be wired with a continuous 115-volt supply. The control must not be wired in parallel with the fan motor starter. (Exception is when using an Amtech combination motor starter with disconnect as this has a dedicated 115V transformer.) 7.4 Compressed Air 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). 7.4.1 Compressed air is used to clean the dust coated cartridge filters with a high pressure reverse jet pulse. A 1-1/2” diameter dedicated supply with a minimum of 80 PSI and a maximum of 90 PSI is recommended. An air regulator may be necessary to step down the supply air if the plant pressure is above the recommended rating. NOT complying will result in component damage. 7.4.2 The air supply line must include water, oil, and particulate filtration. Any contaminants in the compressed air will significantly reduce the effectiveness of the reverse jet pulse cleaning by contaminating the cartridge filters and causing excessive differential pressure across the filters, which results in greatly reduced air flow along with premature filter replacement. 7.4.3 A 200 PSI gauge has been pre-installed to monitor air pressure. Prior to the final connection of the compressed air 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. 7.5 Fire Suppression & Mitigation NOTE: All smoke detection/fire suppression installation must be performed by a qualified technician and in accordance with local, state, and national codes/regulations/laws, if applicable. 7.5.1 Fire suppression and mitigation techniques are an important aspect of the installation procedure. Fires can occur in a dust collection system if the appropriate factors are present, so it is imperative that the necessary fire suppression & mitigation techniques are present in the system to reduce the chance of fire events. The Amtech Streame r can come equipped with a fire sprinkler system. The sprinkler system MUST be properly connected. In most cases, this is the closest building’s fire sprinkler system. ALL fire suppression and mitigation systems should be periodically inspected and maintained. 7.6 HEPA / Safety After Filters (Optional)
7.6.1 The HEPA/SAFETY filter assembly option is shipped as a separate component.
Therefore, to install the after filter module, complete the following steps:
• Remove any protective covering from the outlet of the Amtech Streamer unit. • Apply silicon sealant to the outlet of the Amtech Streamer unit. • Place the after filter module on top of the Amtech Streamer body. Fasten to the body with supplied 3/8”ø x 1-1/4”L bolts and flat washers. • Ensure that the shipping cover is removed from the top of the after filter module.

8. PRE-START UP 8.1 If not already verified in the electrical section, check the rotation of fan by energizing the fan for an instant to verify rotation. Rotation must be clockwise when viewed from the end of the motor discharge side. If the rotation is correct, start the motor. 8.2 Check the compressed air system for leaks. Confirm 80 PSI minimum air pressure (maximum 90 PSI). 8.3 Ensure that all joint connections, such as the connection between the unit body and discharge module, or the unit body and stand, are sealed with an appropriate sealant to guard against air leaks. 8.4 Visually inspect that all cartridge filters are present and installed properly. 8.5 Check that the compression couplings of the pulse valves are tight. 8.6 Manually activate the reverse cleaning valves. This can be done in F06 on the Turbo pulse controller. 8.7 Check each valve for leaks. NOTE: It is normal for the bleed port to release a burst of air at each pulse. 8.8 Check the adequacy of air supply by assuring no less than 35% drop in pressure during pulsing. 9. START UP 9.1 Apply compressed air to the manifold. 9.2 Enable power to the main blower. 9.3 Enable power to the Turbo Digital Pulse Control or any other cleaning controls. 9.4 Enable power to any other auxiliary equipment, if applicable. 9.5 COMMENTS REGARDING FILTER DIFFERENTIAL PRESSURE DURING OPERATION: 9.5.1 Depending on operating conditions, reaching equilibrium for filter differential pressure may vary from a few hours to several weeks. Low dust loading will normally develop 2-3”w.g., normal loading typically generates 3-6”w.g., and high loading varies from 6 - 10”w.g. 9.5.2 Low dust loading typically shows a steady level of differential pressure with very little fluctuations once equilibrium is reached. By contrast, heavy loading can produce significant variance in operating differential pressure. 9.5.3 If your unit is equipped with the Turbo pulse controller, then it is usually necessary to gradually raise the high and low set points to reflect the normal buildup on the filters.

10. PRE-COAT (OPTIONAL) 10.1 Pre-coat is a specially formulated conditioner that enhances the performance of filter cartridges. It creates a highly permeable, protective layer on the surface of the filter media. When applied to new filters, pre- coat forms a protective barrier on the surface of the filter media that stops fine particles from becoming trapped in the media structure. By keeping particulate on the surface, away from the media, the media remains open over a longer period which provides longer filter life. This feature also improves particulate release as surface-loaded dust releases more easily during pulse cleaning. 10.2 When replacing cartridge filters, new filters need to be pre-coated with silica based cellulose or other acceptable pre-coat material available on the market. The following steps should be taken to introduce the pre- coat to the cartridges: • Remove or open the inlets on the front of the unit (the filter cartridges are now visible) • Power up the fan • Slowly introduce the pre-coat. Clean Air Industries recommend 1/2 pound of pre-coat per filter. • Try to coat the cartridges evenly 10.3 Pre-coat can be purchased through your distributor or from Clean Air Industries. However, it is not a requirement to operate your dust collection system. 11. SHUTDOWN 11.1 Disable power to the blower motor. The Turbo digital pulse controller features an offline cleaning mode that will automatically begin once the controller recognizes that the blower is off. This feature will clean through a preset number of cleaning cycles. Once the offline cleaning cycle is complete, the collector is ready for operation when needed. 11.2 Secure power to the digital reverse pulse control. 11.3 Secure power to any other auxiliary equipment. CAUTION: Offline cleaning can cause pressure waves to feed back through the system. Precautions may be necessary to prevent dusting.

12. Maintenance
12.1 Procedures
12.1.1 Dust Tray or hopper: The dust trays, or hopper contents should be checked and emptied periodically. The frequency of this step will depend on the number of shifts operating and conditions in the plant. However, it is a good practice to frequently remove residual build up. 12.1.2 HEPA/SAFETY Filters: The HEPA/SAFETY filters, if equipped, are located on top of the unit (inside the HEPA/SAFETY module). Periodically, these filters should be inspected and replaced. Condition of the HEPA/SAFETY filter will generally be a function of the magnehelic gauge (for the HEPA/SAFETY filters – NOT the cartridge filters) reading. To examine: • Remove the two wing nuts for each filter • Lift off the filter strut.
• Remove HEPA/SAFETY filters • Install new HEPA/SAFETY filters • Reinstall HEPA/SAFETY filter strut • Reinstall the two wing nuts for each filter.
12.1.3 Spark Baffles: The spark baffles, if equipped, are located on front of the Spark Eliminator inlet plenums. These baffles should be periodically cleaned with mild soap and water. To examine: • Pull the baffle filters out of the inlet plenums. • Inspect for build-up and cleanliness. • Wash with soap and water. Let filters dry before reinstalling. • Reinstall the filters. 12.1.4 Cartridge Filters: The cartridge filters will need to be replaced periodically. The frequency varies from a few weeks to a few years, depending on factors such as density of fumes/dust, particle size, humidity of air, oil or grease contents of matter, etc. To change out: • Open the dual-hinged inlets by opening the clamps at the top and bottom of the inlets. • Pull both cam lock levers OUT. The filter guide bars should drop down. • Slide the cartridge filters out of the unit. Dispose appropriately. • Slide the new filters into the unit. Be sure to push the back row of filters as far back as possible. • Push both cam lock levers IN to clamp the filters to the tube sheet. • Close the inlets and clamp to the dust collector body. 12.1.5 Drain Valve: Periodically open the drain valve attached below the compressed air reservoir to drain the liquid build-up in the air tank.
