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!
