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.
