Cautions:
Avoid mixing combustible materials, such
as buffi ng lint, paper, wood, aluminum, and
magnesium dust, and with dust generated from
grinding ferrous metals due to the potential fi re
hazard caused by sparks in the dust collector.
Under no conditions should the persons operating
the dust collector be allowed to put cigarettes or
any burning object into the hood or ducting of any
dust collector system.
All users of Micro-Air Dust Collector Equipment
should comply with all National and Local Fire
Codes and/or other appropriate codes when
determinimg the location and operation of dust
control equipment.
Many of the processes outlined in this manual
will expose the installer to circuits powered by
high voltage. This installation is recommended
for professional electricians or MicroAir trained
personnel.
When dust collectors are used to collect fl ammable
or explosive dusts, the dust collector should be
located outside the building. Also, an installer
of fi re extinguisher equipment, familiar with this
type of fi re hazard and local fi re codes, should be
consulted for recommendations and installation
of the proper fi re extinguishing equipment. Dust
collectors do not contain fi re extinguishing
equipment.
Explosion relief vents are required on some
applications. Consult with an insurance
underwriter or a NFPA manual to determine proper
vent size ratio. Vents installed on dust control
equipment within a building, must be vented to
the outside to minimize changes of secondary
explosion. Consult the proper authority having
jurisdiction to determine proper method of venting.
Dust collectors do not contain Explosion Relief
Vents, except on special order.
All wiring must be done in accordance with
applicable National, State, and local electrical
code. MicroAir does not determine what is
acceptable in any local jurisdiction and cannot
be held responsible for wiring that does not
meet local codes.
Improper installation or operation of this
equipment can cause damage to equipment
and / or injury to personell. The installation/
operation manual must be read and followed in
its entirety.
