Shop Preparation
Machine Mobility
The Model G0572 has a balanced fan and uses digital components that are sensitive to jarring. Move this air filter unit with care, and do not drop or handle it roughly.
Operating Location
Operating this air filter unit in the incorrect envi- ronment can cause an explosion or respiratory damage to you and others. Read safety instruc- tions on Page 6 to verify that the filter capabilities will work in your environment.
Locate the air filter unit where the signal path for the remote control is unobstructed and is used within 75 feet of the control panel. Often, the optimum location for this air filter unit is at an overhead central shop location and not at the corners.
Working Clearances
Consider your current and future shop needs with respect to the machinery and the dust col- lection system used. Make sure that the inlet and the outlet have at least 12" of clearance between obstructions as not to restrict the air flow. The air filter inlet should be a minimum of 3' from outside air sources, such as windows, vents, and doors. If the filter is too close to an outside air source, it will filter the outside air instead of the shop air.
Outlets
Make sure the electrical circuits have the capacity to handle the amperage requirements of the new air filter unit. Refer to Page 7 for more informa- tion. Electrical outlets should be located near the unit so power or extension cords are clear of
Site Planning
Site planning is an important step to maximize the effectiveness of the hanging air filter. Air circulation must be thought out and all obstructions to the air path considered.
Think of air circulation in terms of the circular motion of the air before and after the air filter. The air exiting the filter is exhausted at a higher veloc- ity than that entering it. Consequently, exhaust being vented inside a building can have an effect on the pattern of air circulation.
Air circulation patterns will vary depending upon which method is used and according to your spe- cific shop setup. Figure 4 shows an example of good air circulation.
