Kitchen Exhaust Pollution Control System
1. Follow all local electrical and safety codes, as well as
the National Electrical Code (NEC), the National Fire
Protection Agency (NFPA), where applicable. Follow
the Canadian Electrical Code (CEC) in Canada.
2. The rotation of the fan wheel is critical. It must
be free to rotate without striking or rubbing any
stationary objects.
3. Fan motor must be securely and adequately
grounded.
4. Do not spin fan wheel faster than maximum
cataloged fan rpm. Adjustments to fan speed
significantly affects motor load. If the fan RPM is
changed, the motor current should be checked to
make sure it is not exceeding the motor nameplate
amps.
5. Do not allow the wires to kink or come in contact
with oil, grease, hot surfaces or chemicals. Replace
immediately if damaged.
6. Verify that the power source is compatible with the
equipment.
7. Never open access doors to a duct while the fan is
running.
8. The precipitator contains safety electrical interlock
switches at all maintenance access doors. Do not
attempt to defeat these interlocks.
