dirty-air plenums, may be considered OSHA Confined Spaces.
Refer to the appropriate OSHA regulations to determine if a
specific installation is a confined space and if a permit program is
required.
Do not use the fume extractor without an approved and properly
installed spark guard unless the unit is designed and intended to be
used without one. Without the spark guard, welding sparks may
ignite a non-fire retardant filter or fume collected on the filter, or
damage the filter and allow unfiltered air into the breathing zone.
Do not allow sparks or any burning materials to enter the hood or
duct of the fume extractor.
Only use the fume extractor to extract weld fumes. Do not use the
fume extractor to extract hot gases (above 140°F/60°C) wood or
cement dust, engine exhaust, liquid vapors, explosive materials,
aggressive fumes (acid), fumes from burning objects, or fumes
from cleaning, cutting, gouging, grinding, painting, flame spraying,
sand blasting, or other non−welding operations.
Fumes from some welding operations may be combustible. Do not
install or operate fume extractor where combustible weld fumes
may be present unless a fire/and/or explosion protection system is
present that has been selected and approved by a qualified person
familiar with applicable codes and fire/explosion protection
systems.
Use the fume extractor only in atmospheres for which it is
recommended. Do not use the extractor where contaminant levels
are unknown or are immediately dangerous to life, or where the
contaminant levels exceed the fume extractor specifications.
Do not weld until you are sure the fume extractor is correctly
assembled and working properly.
Before each use, inspect the fume extractor for damage and verify
it operates properly.
Dangerous contaminants may not smell or be visible. Leave the
area immediately if you notice the following:
a. Breathing becomes difficult.
b. You experience dizziness, impaired vision, or eye, nose, or
mouth irritation.
c. The equipment is damaged.
d. Air flow decreases or stops.
e. If you think the equipment is not supplying adequate
protection.
Do not repair, modify, or disassemble the fume extractor or use
with parts or accessories not supplied by the manufacturer. Use
only approved components from the manufacturer.
Replace damaged or clogged filter. Do not wash or reuse filter, or
clean filter by tapping or with compressed air, unless specifically
instructed by the manufacturer in the Owner’s Manual (filter
element may be damaged). Do not breathe the dust collected by
the fume extractor. Wear approved safety equipment (respirator,
gloves, long sleeve shirt) when performing filter maintenance.
Dispose of used filter element and collected dust according to
local, state, and federal requirements.
Read and understand the Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDSs)
and the manufacturer’s instructions for metals, consumables,
coatings, cleaners, and degreasers.
The fume extractor must be used with the extraction arm, hoses,
filter, and other components recommended by the manufacturer.

Manuals, industry standards, and national, state, and local
codes.
1-3. Arc Welding And Plasma Cutting Hazards
ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.
Touching live electrical parts can cause fatal shocks
or severe burns. The electrode and work circuit is
electrically live whenever the output is on. The input
power circuit and machine internal circuits are also
live when power is on. In semiautomatic or automatic
wire welding, the wire, wire reel, drive roll housing,
and all metal parts touching the welding wire are
electrically live. Incorrectly installed or improperly
grounded equipment is a hazard.
Keep cords dry, free of oil and grease, and protected from hot metal
and sparks.
Frequently inspect input power cord for damage or bare wiring −
replace cord immediately if damaged − bare wiring can kill.
Turn off all equipment when not in use.
Do not use worn, damaged, undersized, or poorly spliced cables.
Do not drape cables over your body.
If earth grounding of the workpiece is required, ground it directly
with a separate cable.
Do not touch live electrical parts.
Do not touch electrode if you are in contact with the work, ground,
or another electrode from a different machine.
Wear dry, hole-free insulating gloves and body protection.
Insulate yourself from work and ground using dry insulating mats
or covers big enough to prevent any physical contact with the work
or ground.
Do not use AC output in damp areas, if movement is confined, or if
there is a danger of falling.
Use AC output ONLY if required for the welding or cutting process.
If AC output is required, use remote output control if present on
unit.
Additional safety precautions are required when any of the following electrically hazardous conditions are present: in damp
locations or while wearing wet clothing; on metal structures such
as floors, gratings, or scaffolds; when in cramped positions such
as sitting, kneeling, or lying; or when there is a high risk of unavoidable or accidental contact with the workpiece or ground. For these
conditions, use the following equipment in order presented: 1) a
semiautomatic DC constant voltage (wire) welder, 2) a DC manual
(stick) welder, or 3) an AC welder with reduced open-circuit voltage. In most situations, use of a DC, constant voltage wire welder
is recommended. And, do not work alone!
Disconnect input power or stop engine before installing or
servicing this equipment. Lockout/tagout input power according to
OSHA 29 CFR 1910.147 (see Safety Standards).
Do not touch electrode holders connected to two welding machines at the same time since double open-circuit voltage will be
present.
Properly install, ground, and operate this equipment according to
its Owner’s Manual and national, state, and local codes.
Always verify the supply ground − check and be sure that input
power cord ground wire is properly connected to ground terminal in
disconnect box or that cord plug is connected to a properly
grounded receptacle outlet.
When making input connections, attach proper grounding conductor first − double-check connections.
OM-263 001 Page 2
Use only well-maintained equipment. Repair or replace damaged
parts at once. Maintain unit according to manual.
Wear a safety harness if working above floor level.
Keep all panels and covers securely in place.
Clamp work cable with good metal-to-metal contact to workpiece
or worktable as near the weld as practical.
Insulate work clamp when not connected to workpiece to prevent
contact with any metal object.
Do not connect more than one electrode or work cable to any
single weld output terminal. Disconnect cable for process not in
use.
SIGNIFICANT DC VOLTAGE exists in inverter power sources AFTER removal of input power.
Turn Off inverter, disconnect input power, and discharge input
capacitors according to instructions in Maintenance Section
before touching any parts.
HOT PARTS can burn.
Do not touch hot parts bare handed.
Allow cooling period before working on equipment.
To handle hot parts, use proper tools and/or
wear heavy, insulated welding gloves and
clothing to prevent burns.
FUMES AND GASES can be hazardous.
Welding and cutting produces fumes and gases.
Breathing these fumes and gases can be hazardous
to your health.
Keep your head out of the fumes. Do not breathe the fumes.
If inside, ventilate the area and/or use local forced ventilation at the
arc to remove welding and cutting fumes and gases.
If ventilation is poor, wear an approved air-supplied respirator.
Read and understand the Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDSs)
and the manufacturer’s instructions for metals, consumables,
coatings, cleaners, and degreasers.
Work in a confined space only if it is well ventilated, or while
wearing an air-supplied respirator. Always have a trained watchperson nearby. Welding and cutting fumes and gases can displace
air and lower the oxygen level causing injury or death. Be sure the
breathing air is safe.
Connect work cable to the work as close to the welding or cutting
area as practical to prevent welding or cutting current from traveling long, possibly unknown paths and causing electric shock,
sparks, and fire hazards.
Do not use welder to thaw frozen pipes.
Remove stick electrode from holder or cut off welding wire at
contact tip when not in use.
Wear oil-free protective garments such as leather gloves, heavy
shirt, cuffless trousers, high shoes, and a cap.
Remove any combustibles, such as a butane lighter or matches,
from your person before doing any welding or cutting.
After completion of work, inspect area to ensure it is free of sparks,
glowing embers, and flames.
Use only correct fuses or circuit breakers. Do not oversize or bypass them.
Follow requirements in OSHA 1910.252 (a) (2) (iv) and NFPA 51B
for hot work and have a fire watcher and extinguisher nearby.
FLYING METAL or DIRT can injure eyes.
Welding, cutting, chipping, wire brushing, and
grinding cause sparks and flying metal. As
welds cool, they can throw off slag.
Wear approved safety glasses with side
shields even under your welding helmet.
Do not weld or cut in locations near degreasing, cleaning, or spraying operations. The heat and rays of the arc can react with vapors
to form highly toxic and irritating gases.
Do not weld or cut on coated metals, such as galvanized, lead, or
cadmium plated steel, unless the coating is removed from the weld
area, the area is well ventilated, and while wearing an air-supplied
respirator. The coatings and any metals containing these elements
can give off toxic fumes if welded.
BUILDUP OF GAS can injure or kill.
Shut off compressed gas supply when not in use.
Always ventilate confined spaces or use
approved air-supplied respirator.
ARC RAYS can burn eyes and skin.
Arc rays from welding and cutting processes
produce intense visible and invisible (ultraviolet and
infrared) rays that can burn eyes and skin. Sparks fly
off from the weld.
ELECTRIC AND MAGNETIC FIELDS (EMF)
can affect Implanted Medical Devices.
Wearers of Pacemakers and other Implanted
Medical Devices should keep away.
Wear an approved welding helmet fitted with a proper shade of
filter lenses to protect your face and eyes from arc rays and
sparks when welding, cutting, or watching (see ANSI Z49.1 and
Z87.1 listed in Safety Standards).
Wear approved safety glasses with side shields under your
helmet.
Use protective screens or barriers to protect others from flash,
glare and sparks; warn others not to watch the arc.
Wear protective clothing made from durable, flame-resistant
material (leather, heavy cotton, or wool) and foot protection.
Implanted Medical Device wearers should consult their doctor
and the device manufacturer before going near arc welding, spot
welding, gouging, plasma arc cutting, or induction heating
operations.
NOISE can damage hearing.
Noise from some processes or equipment can
damage hearing.
WELDING AND CUTTING can cause
fire or explosion.
Wear approved ear protection if noise level is
high.
Welding or cutting on closed containers, such as
tanks, drums, or pipes, can cause them to blow up.
Sparks can fly off from the welding or cutting arc. The
flying sparks, hot workpiece, and hot equipment can
cause fires and burns. Accidental contact of electrode to metal
objects can cause sparks, explosion, overheating, or fire. Check and
be sure the area is safe before doing any welding or cutting.
Remove all flammables within 35 ft (10.7 m) of the welding or cutting arc. If this is not possible, tightly cover them with approved
covers.
Do not weld or cut where flying sparks can strike flammable
material.
Protect yourself and others from flying sparks and hot metal.
Be alert that welding sparks and hot materials from welding and
cutting can easily go through small cracks and openings to adjacent areas.
Watch for fire, and keep a fire extinguisher nearby.
Be aware that welding or cutting on a ceiling, floor, bulkhead, or
partition can cause fire on the hidden side.
Do not weld or cut on containers that have held combustibles, or on
closed containers such as tanks, drums, or pipes unless they are
properly prepared according to AWS F4.1 and AWS A6.0 (see
Safety Standards).
Do not weld or cut where the atmosphere may contain flammable
dust, gas, or liquid vapors (such as gasoline).
CYLINDERS can explode if damaged.
Compressed gas cylinders contain gas under high
pressure. If damaged, a cylinder can explode. Since
gas cylinders are normally part of the welding
process, be sure to treat them carefully.
Protect compressed gas cylinders from excessive heat, mechanical shocks, physical damage, slag, open flames, sparks, and arcs.
Install cylinders in an upright position by securing to a stationary
support or cylinder rack to prevent falling or tipping.
Keep cylinders away from any welding, cutting, or other electrical
circuits.
Never drape a welding or cutting torch over a gas cylinder.
Never allow a welding electrode or cutting torch to touch any
cylinder.
Never weld on a pressurized cylinder − explosion will result.
Use only correct compressed gas cylinders, regulators, hoses,
and fittings designed for the specific application; maintain them
and associated parts in good condition.
Turn face away from valve outlet when opening cylinder valve.
Keep protective cap in place over valve except when cylinder is in
use or connected for use.
Use the right equipment, correct procedures, and sufficient number of persons to lift and move cylinders.

1-7. EMF Information
Electric current flowing through any conductor causes localized electric
and magnetic fields (EMF). Welding current creates an EMF field
around the welding circuit and welding equipment. EMF fields may interfere with some medical implants, e.g. pacemakers. Protective
measures for persons wearing medical implants have to be taken. For
example, restrict access for passers−by or conduct individual risk assessment for welders. All welders should use the following procedures
in order to minimize exposure to EMF fields from the welding circuit:
a. Keep cables close together by twisting or taping them, or using a
cable cover.
b. Do not place your body between welding cables. Arrange cables
to one side and away from the operator.
c.
Do not coil or drape cables around your body.
d. Keep head and trunk as far away from the equipment in the
welding circuit as possible.
e. Connect work clamp to workpiece as close to the weld as
possible.
f.
Do not work next to, sit or lean on the welding power source.
g. Do not weld whilst carrying the welding power source or wire
feeder.
About Implanted Medical Devices:
Implanted Medical Device wearers should consult their doctor and the
device manufacturer before performing or going near arc welding, spot
welding, gouging, plasma arc cutting, or induction heating operations.
If cleared by your doctor, then following the above procedures is recommended.

Fixer le câble de retour de façon à obtenir un bon contact métalmétal avec la pièce à souder ou la table de travail, le plus près possible de la soudure.
Isoler la pince de masse quand pas mis à la pièce pour éviter le
contact avec tout objet métallique.
Ne pas raccorder plus d’une électrode ou plus d’un câble de
masse à une même borne de sortie de soudage. Débranchez
le câble pour procédé non utilisé.
Il reste une TENSION DC NON NÉGLIGEABLE dans
les sources de soudage onduleur UNE FOIS
l’alimentation coupée.
Arrêter les convertisseurs, débrancher le courant électrique et
décharger les condensateurs d’alimentation selon les instructions
indiquées dans la partie Entretien avant de toucher les pièces.
LES PIÈCES CHAUDES peuvent
provoquer des brûlures.
Ne pas toucher à mains nues les parties
chaudes.
Prévoir une période de refroidissement avant de
travailler à l’équipement.
Ne pas toucher aux pièces chaudes, utiliser les outils recommandés et porter des gants de soudage et des vêtements épais pour
éviter les brûlures.
LES FUMÉES ET LES GAZ peuvent
être dangereux.
Le soudage et le coupage produisent des vapeurs
et des gaz. Leur inhalation peut être dangereuse
pour votre santé.
Eloigner votre tête des fumées. Ne pas respirer les fumées.
A l’intérieur, ventilez la pièce ou ayez recours à une ventilation
aspirante installée près de l’arc pour évacuer les vapeurs
et les gaz.
Si la ventilation est médiocre, porter un respirateur anti-vapeurs
approuvé.
Lire et comprendre les spécifications de sécurité des matériaux
(MSDS) et les instructions du fabricant concernant les métaux, les
consommables, les revêtements, les nettoyants et les dégraisseurs.
Travailler dans un espace fermé seulement s’il est bien ventilé
ou en portant un respirateur à alimentation d’air. Prévoyez
toujours un surveillant formé à proximité. Les vapeurs de soudage
et de coupage peuvent déplacer de l’air et abaisser le niveau
d’oxygène, cause de lésion ou de mort. Assurez−vous de la qualité
de l’air que vous respirez.
Ne soudez pas ou ne coupez pas près de zones où sont effectuées des opérations de dégraissage, nettoyage ou pulvérisation.
La chaleur et les rayons de l’arc peuvent réagir en présence
de vapeurs et former des gaz hautement toxiques et irritants.
Ne soudez pas ou ne coupez pas des métaux enrobés tels que
des métaux galvanisés, contenant du plomb ou de l’acier plaqué
au cadmium, à moins que l’enrobage ne soit ôté de la surface
de soudage, que l’endroit où vous travaillez ne soit bien ventilé, ou,
si nécessaire, que vous ne portiez un respirateur alimenté en air.
Les enrobages ou tous métaux contenant ces éléments peuvent
créer des vapeurs toxiques s’ils sont soudés ou coupés.
LES RAYONS DE L’ARC peuvent
provoquer des brûlures dans les
yeux et sur la peau.
Les rayons d’arc issus des procédés de soudage et de
coupage produisent des rayons visibles et invisibles
intenses (ultraviolets et infrarouges) qui peuvent
entraîner des brûlures aux yeux et à la peau.
Des étincelles jaillissent de la soudure.
OM-263 001 Page 8
Portez un casque de soudage approuvé muni de verres filtrants
appropriés pour protéger visage et yeux contre les rayons et les
étincelles d’arc pendant le soudage, le coupage ou la surveillance
(voir ANSI Z49.1 et Z87.1 énuméré dans les Normes de Sécurité).
Porter des lunettes de sécurité avec écrans latéraux même sous
votre casque.

Le SOUDAGE ET le COUPAGE
présentent un risque d’incendie
ou d’explosion.
Le soudage ou le coupage effectué sur des conteneurs fermés, tels que réservoirs, tambours ou
conduites, peut causer leur explosion. Des étincelles
peuvent être projetées de l’arc de soudure. La projection d’étincelles,
des pièces chaudes et des équipements chauds peut provoquer des
incendies et des brûlures. Le contact accidentel de l’électrode avec
des objets métalliques peut provoquer des étincelles, une explosion,
un surchauffement ou un incendie. Avant de commencer le soudage,
vérifier et s’assurer que l’endroit ne présente pas de danger.
Ecartez tout produit inflammable situé à moins de 35 pieds
(10,7 m) de l’arc de soudage ou de coupage. En cas d’impossibilité les recouvrir soigneusement avec des protections
homologués.
Ne soudez pas ou ne coupez pas dans un endroit où des étincelles
pourraient atteindre des matières inflammables.
Se protéger et d’autres personnes de la projection d’étincelles et
de métal chaud.
Assurez−vous qu’aucune étincelle ni matière chaude provenant
du soudage ou du coupage ne peut se glisser dans de petites
fissures ou tomber dans d’autres pièces contiguës.
Surveiller tout déclenchement d’incendie et tenir un extincteur à
proximité.
Si vous soudez ou coupez sur un plafond, un plancher ou
une cloison, soyez conscient que cela peut entraîner un incendie
de l’autre côté.
N’effectuez pas de soudage ou de coupage sur des conteneurs
ayant stocké des combustibles ou sur des conteneurs fermés
tels que des réservoirs, tambours, ou conduites, à moins qu’ils
n’aient été préparés correctement conformément à AWS F4.1
et AWS A6.0 (voir les Normes de Sécurité).
Ne soudez pas ou ne coupez pas si l’air ambiant est chargé
de particules, gaz, ou vapeurs inflammables (vapeur d’essence,
par exemple).
Fixez le câble de masse sur la pièce à couper, le plus près possible
de la zone à souder ou à couper afin d’éviter que le courant de
soudage ou de coupage ne prenne une trajectoire inconnue ou
longue et ne cause ainsi une décharge électrique ou un incendie.
Ne pas utiliser le poste de soudage pour dégeler des conduites gelées.
En cas de non utilisation, enlever la baguette d’électrode du porteélectrode ou couper le fil à la pointe de contact.
Porter des vêtements de protection dépourvus d’huile tels que des
gants en cuir, une chemise en matériau lourd, des pantalons sans
revers, des chaussures hautes et un couvre chef.
Avant de souder, retirer toute substance combustible de vos poches telles qu’un allumeur au butane ou des allumettes.
Une fois le travail achevé, assurez−vous qu’il ne reste aucune
trace d’étincelles incandescentes ni de flammes.
Utiliser exclusivement des fusibles ou coupe−circuits appropriés.
Ne pas augmenter leur puissance; ne pas les ponter.
Suivre les recommandations dans OSHA 1910.252(a)(2)(iv) et
NFPA 51B pour les travaux à chaud et avoir de la surveillance et un
extincteur à proximité.

2-7. Informations relatives aux CEM
Le courant électrique qui traverse tout conducteur génère des champs
électromagnétiques (CEM) à certains endroits. Le courant de soudage
crée un CEM autour du circuit et du matériel de soudage. Les CEM
peuvent créer des interférences avec certains implants médicaux
comme des stimulateurs cardiaques. Pour les personnes portant des
implants médicaux, il convient de prendre des mesures de protection
en limitant par exemple tout accès aux passants ou procédant à une
évaluation des risques individuels pour les soudeurs. Tous les
soudeurs doivent appliquer les procédures suivantes pour minimiser
l’exposition aux CEM provenant du circuit de soudage:
a Rassembler les câbles en les torsadant ou en les attachant avec
du ruban adhésif ou avec une housse.
b Ne pas se tenir au milieu des câbles de soudage. Disposer les
câbles d’un côté et à distance de l’opérateur.
c Ne pas courber et ne pas entourer les câbles autour de votre
corps.
d
Maintenir la tête et le torse aussi loin que possible du matériel du
circuit de soudage.
e
Connecter la pince sur la pièce aussi près que possible de la
soudure.
f
Ne pas travailler à proximité d’une source de soudage, ni
s’asseoir ou se pencher dessus.
g
Ne pas souder tout en portant la source de soudage ou le
dévidoir.
En ce qui concerne les implants médicaux :
Les porteurs d’implants doivent d’abord consulter leur médecin avant
de s’approcher des opérations de soudage à l’arc, de soudage par
points, de gougeage, du coupage plasma ou de chauffage par induction. Si le médecin approuve, il est recommandé de suivre les
procédures précédentes.

Clean Air
The filters are cleaned by reverse-pulsing
the filter packs with controlled bursts of
compressed air. Cleaning control is activated by the pressure drop across the filter
packs or by manually initiating the controls
to pulse continuously (when the extractor is
operating). The cleaning sequence starts
at the top filter packs and continues down
through each filter pack set. The filter packs
are serviced by opening the access door,
unclamping the filter banks, and sliding the
filter packs out.
Fumes enter the unit through the top inlet.
Airflow is then directed downward through
the extractor and heavier particulate falls
directly into the hopper. The filter packs remove fine particulate and filtered air passes
through the packs to the clean-air plenum

Alarm
Menu
The controller monitors the differential pressure between the clean and dirty-air plenums to indicate the filter condition. It controls the pressure drop by turning the cleaning mechanism on and off at the set limits.
There are three set points: High Pressure
On, Low Pressure Off, and Alarm. High
Pressure On and Low Pressure Off control
the filter cleaning system. The Alarm set
point provides a relay output to activate an
external alarm (customer supplied).

Controller Features
24 Volt DC Motor Start/Feedback Relay
Clean filters while the extractor is running to maintain a constant pressure
drop across the filters.
Clean filters only after the extractor is
shut down (after-shift cleaning).
Clean filters while running and at end
of shift.
The 24 volt DC start relay allows customer-supplied equipment to start the fume extractor fan and cleaning systems. The low
voltage feedback signal allows the fume extractor to interlock with other customer-supplied equipment (when the extractor is running) by relaying the low voltage signal back
to the sending equipment.
6-4. Operating The Controller
“wg
daPa
Alarm
Menu
Set
Description
The controller continuously monitors and
displays differential pressure drop in inches
of water or decaPascals on the panel face.
When combined with a pulse timer, it can
control the extractor cleaning mechanism to
maintain the differential pressure drop
between chosen limits. Three cleaning
modes are available along with an alarm
function and a 4 – 20 mA signal output.
Normal Operation
Three cleaning modes, Differential Pressure Cleaning (DFF), Downtime Cleaning
(DTC), and Combined Differential and
Downtime Cleaning (ALL) are available with
this controller and can be individually
chosen by the user.
Differential Pressure Cleaning (DFF)
− When the differential pressure drop
reaches the controller’s High setpoint, the controller closes an output
relay initiating the cleaning cycle.
When the differential pressure drop
reaches the Low setpoint, the relay
opens and the cleaning cycle stops.
Downtime
Clean
This sequence continues as long as
the extractor is running, maintaining
the differential pressure drop within a
specified range.
Abnormal changes in pressure drop in­
dicate a change in operating condi­
tions and possibly a fault to be correc­
ted. For example, prolonged lack of
compressed air will cause an excess
build‐up of particles on the filters result­
ing in increased pressure drop. Down­
time cleaning with no flow usually re­
stores the filters to normal pressure
drop.
Cleaning
Downtime Cleaning (DTC) – The
controller monitors for the differential
pressure drop to exceed the Low setpoint (indicates the blower has been
started). When the differential pressure drop later approaches zero (indicating the blower has been shut
down), the controller engages the
cleaning cycle for a pre−selected
time. A delay timer allows the blower
to come to a stop before the cleaning
cycle starts.
The delay timer and cleaning cycle durations are both user adjustable but
password protected.
Combined Differential and Downtime
Cleaning (ALL) –The ALL mode combines the two functions described
above, maintaining the differential
pressure drop in a specified range,
then initiating a down−time cleaning
cycle when the differential pressure
drop approaches zero. The downtime cleaning function can be toggled
on or off from the keyboard.
The DTC and ALL cleaning modes in-
corporate compressed air cleaning of
the filters when the main extractor fan is
not running. This may result in collected material “drifting” out the inlet duct
of the extractor. An isolation valve in
the inlet duct of the extractor can reduce or eliminate that drifting.
Consideration should be made on the
use of the DTC or ALL cleaning mode
on small extractors where the relatively
low volume of the extractor may produce pressure spikes with each pulse
of the cleaning cycle. Such pressure
spikes may accelerate the fatigue, or
damage of ancillary items such as pressure sensors or explosion relief panels.
Alarm
The alarm is used to indicate that the differential pressure drop has exceeded a preset
value. The alarm setpoint is set to a value
exceeding the High setpoint used to start
the filter cleaning cycle. The purpose of the
alarm is to notify the user, via a light on the
panel or dry-contact output, that the cleaning system cannot reduce the pressure
drop due to a cleaning system failure, lack
of compressed air, or the end of the filter’s
useful life. It can also be used to notify the
user that the pressure drop has reached a
certain value (process related). There is a
time delay prior to activating the alarm to
prevent nuisance trips of the alarm. The
controller also provides an input connection
for a remote alarm reset/disable.
Once
the differential pressure drop
reaches the Alarm value, the relay and
LED remain activated until the pressure
drop falls below the value set for the
HIGH set point or until you deactivate
the alarm using a remote reset/disable.

6-10. Prestart Checklist (Before Welding)
Do not use the fume extraction
equipment unless you are sure it is
correctly assembled and working
properly.
!
Do not look into the fan outlet to
check fan rotation. View fan rotation
through the top fo the inlet cone.
(Fan should rotate counterclockwise.) Make sure the exhaust plenum is free of tools or debris before
checking fan rotation.
!
Keep away from exhaust outlet.
Verify all ductwork and tubing is tight, secure, and does not leak.
Verify clean air outlet is not obstructed and
discharge air appears clean (free of welding
fumes). Check filter if discharge air appears
dirty. Make sure panels are closed (and
latched) to ensure a tight seal around the filter.
Verify electrical connections are tight.
!
Motor and fan should be wired for counterclockwise rotation when viewed from the inlet cone. Access this view by ”bumping” the
motor (quick start, then stop the motor),
then open the control panel access door
from view from above through the inlet
cone.

To
Start unit and adjust damper control.
reverse fan rotation (three-phase
power supply) disconnect input power
and switch any two leads on the motor
junction box. Do not interchange a
power lead with the ground wire.
Verify the particle collection bin is properly
sealed and clamped.
Set the exhaust damper to the fully−closed
position.
Remove all loose items in or near the inlet
and outlet of the unit. Confirm that all remote−mounted controls and solenoid enclosures (if applicable) are properly wired
Verify all optional accessories are installed
properly and secured.
Turn on compressed air supply. Adjust air
pressure to 90 psi (621 kPa)
The exhaust damper can be adjusted to
regulate or limit airflow when unit is in operation. Before start-up, set the exhaust
damper to the fully-closed position. Adjustments to airflow can be made by loosening
the wing nut and sliding the handle to open
or close the damper. When replacing filters,
reset the damper to the fully-closed position
and then open the damper to reestablish
desired airflow.
NOTICE − Excess airflow can shorten filter
life and cause electrical system and blower
motor failure.

Items furnished by Miller, but manufactured by others,
such as engines or trade accessories. These items are
covered by the manufacturer’s warranty, if any.
Equipment that has been modified by any party other than
Miller, or equipment that has been improperly installed,
improperly operated or misused based upon industry
standards, or equipment which has not had reasonable
and necessary maintenance, or equipment which has
been used for operation outside of the specifications for

MILLER PRODUCTS ARE INTENDED FOR PURCHASE AND
USE BY COMMERCIAL/INDUSTRIAL USERS AND PERSONS
TRAINED AND EXPERIENCED IN THE USE AND
MAINTENANCE OF WELDING EQUIPMENT.
In the event of a warranty claim covered by this warranty, the
exclusive remedies shall be, at Miller’s option: (1) repair; or (2)
replacement; or, where authorized in writing by Miller in appropriate
cases, (3) the reasonable cost of repair or replacement at an

as determined by Miller. Therefore no compensation or
reimbursement for transportation costs of any kind will be allowed.
TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE REMEDIES
PROVIDED HEREIN ARE THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE
REMEDIES. IN NO EVENT SHALL MILLER BE LIABLE FOR
DIRECT,
INDIRECT,

FURNISHED BY MILLER IS EXCLUDED AND DISCLAIMED BY
MILLER.
Some states in the U.S.A. do not allow limitations of how long an
implied warranty lasts, or the exclusion of incidental, indirect,
special or consequential damages, so the above limitation or
exclusion may not apply to you. This warranty provides specific
legal rights, and other rights may be available, but may vary from
state to state.
In Canada, legislation in some provinces provides for certain
additional warranties or remedies other than as stated herein, and to
the extent that they may not be waived, the limitations and
exclusions set out above may not apply. This Limited Warranty
provides specific legal rights, and other rights may be available, but
may vary from province to province.
