Dust Collectors – Series CPV

COMMISSIONING

It is a requirement of the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations

1992 to provide adequate isolation and emergency stop facilities. Due

to the varied nature of site installations this cannot be provided by

Donaldson but instead is the responsibility of the customer.

Commissioning check list 

Ensure the dust collector is securely bolted over the aperture.

Open the access door(s) and ensure the seal is intact, then close and secure

the door(s).

Ensure controller is connected to the correct voltage and that the pulse

interval and duration settings are correct. For 24V DC ensure polarity is

correct. It is essential that the controller is earthed for both AC and DC

connections.

Ensure electric power is available.

Ensure the compressed air manifold has sufficient protection for over-

pressure.

Start the compressor and check that the air supply is maintained at the

recommended pressure.

Switch on the controller and check that all valves operate in sequence (look

and listen for exhaust pulses). As each valve operates, the air pressure

reading should drop to approximately 50% of the initial setting and then

return to the initial value.

If any of the above check boxes are not ticked, then the reasons why should be

investigated. (Refer to fault location table in ‘Maintenance’ section).

Start-up sequence

Having completed all the necessary checks, the equipment may be put into

operation. A typical installation should be started up as follows:

1 Start up compressed air supply.

2 Set the equipment being served, if applicable, in motion.

3 Switch on controller.
