Page 5: Introduction
CAUTION These instructions are specific to the AAF PulsePak Prime filter system and filters. All ancillary tasks including, but not limited to, electrical and mechanical work, equipment handling, and safety procedures must be performed in accordance with industry accepted practice and all relevant local, state, and federal government codes, laws, and policies. -
Page 6: Safe Working Practices And Staff Training
2.2 Safe working practices and staff training AAF International is fully committed to the safety of its employees and those of its customers. In this spirit the following guidelines are offered for the consideration of those responsible: All personnel shall receive safety training specific to the site, the task, and the conditions under which the work will be conducted. - Page 7 For instance, if an explosion suppression system is being supplied by parties other than AAF, it is incumbent on the user to ensure that the dust collection equipment has been ordered to resist the internal pressure defined by the suppression equipment supplier.

Page 13: Product Shipment
Compare the collector(s) received to the description and/or drawing of the collector(s) ordered. Immediately report any differences or missing items from the order to AAF International. Remove loose items or components before lifting the collector from the truck. -
Page 14: Damaged Goods
5.4 Damaged goods If there is any visible damage to the packaging or the equipment notify the carrier and AAF before proceeding further and, if appropriate, file an immediate claim with the carrier against such damage. Be aware that damage to packaging may indicate hidden damage to the product that is not immediately discernable. -
Page 15: Storage And Protection
All lifting operations must be made in compliance with the relevant HSE legislation. STORAGE AND PROTECTION In the event the PulsePak Prime is not placed in service within 30 days after receipt, the Panel Pak cartridges must be removed and stored in a clean, dry place to prevent possible moisture accumulation in the media. -
Page 16: Anchoring
Safe and efficient operation of the PulsePak Prime depends on proper installation. AAF recommends that the ductwork going into the collector be as straight as possible, with at least 5 diameters of straight run recommended. Authorities with jurisdiction should be consulted before installing the PulsePak Prime to insure local installation laws, codes, regulations and procedures are followed. -
Page 17: Flanged Joints
Flanged joints exist where housing modules must be bolted together and where accessories are bolted to the outer faces of the housing. In all cases, AAF will provide sufficient tubes of sealant which must be applied to one of the opposing faces just prior to the faces being brought together. -
Page 18: Installing The Access Components
Refer to the electrical drawings issued with the general arrangement drawing. When the AAF Control Center or Pressure Demand controller is to be used, select a location for fixing the enclosure within 15ft of the static taps located on the PulsePak Prime side panels. -
Page 19: Installation Of The Filter Elements
AAF provides plastic tubing for the pulse controller to be located 15ft from the static taps. A more remote position is acceptable if additional tubing is obtained. A practical limit of 30ft applies. Once the pulse controller is fixed in position, connect two parallel lines of plastic tubing to the 2 connection taps on the pulse controller and the other ends to the static taps located on the side wall of the PulsePak Prime. -
Page 20: Installation Of Accessories
6. Once all filters in a column are installed, reinstall the mandrel support braces over the threaded rod. Tighten the retaining knob on the rods until the gasket is fully compressed against the back wall. 9.2.8 Installation of accessories When accessories, such as sprinklers, hopper discharge device(s), and airlocks, are ordered with the PulsePak Prime, separate installation instructions will be provided with the collector. - Page 21 To power up the DCT controller, connect power line to L1 and L2. Control Wiring must be field installed between the solenoid valves and the pulse output terminals as shown on the electrical connection diagram that is supplied with the specific PulsePak Prime collector ordered.
- Page 22 power requirements 85-270V/50-60Hz/1Ph. operating temperature range is -40F to 140F. Continuous cleaning operations do not require external inputs and can be used for time based cleaning by placing a jumper wire across the manual override and common, or across the high limit input and common. For on-demand applications, program the DCT controller by going through each selection available, setting up each step.
-
Page 23: Compressed Air Connections
When setting up the DCT, the “high limit” is normally set at 2.5” w.g. and the “low limit” is normally set up at 1.5” w.g. Different applications require different settings. Please contact AAF International for assistance. For troubleshooting and for further information, see the Dwyer DCT controller IOM. -
Page 24: Explosion Vents
The following only applies to AAF-supplied explosion vents. Additional and/or different steps, equipment, etc. may be needed for vents and other equipment not supplied by AAF. Further, the following is a non-exhaustive list of recommendations, and users must carefully read, among other things, the manufacturer’s explosion vent guide for further instructions. - Page 25 CAUTION: The edges of the explosion vent can be sharp. CAUTION: Incorrect installation of the explosion vent can cause the panel to not open at the rated burst pressure. Place the explosion vent over the protruding bolt holes of the frame. Make certain the dome is protruding outwards.
-
Page 26: Explosion Vent Burst Sensor
Explosion Vent Burst Sensor All standard explosion vents come with a burst sensor. This can be connected to an AAF Control Center or to the customer’s controls to shut down the unit when an event occurs. The magnetic sensor is suitable for use in Class I and II, Division I, Groups A to G. -
Page 27: Start-Up & Operation
START-UP & OPERATION 11.1 Start-up checklist Check the compressed air lines to be sure they are connected to the 1” NPT connection on the top of the compressed air manifold(s). Pressure available should be 80-100 psig. Check that the Panel Pak cartridges are properly installed. Close the access door(s) and secure tightly. -
Page 28: Normal Operation
The PulsePak Prime is assumed to be part of a system that will include a fan and possibly other components, supplied by AAF or other companies. For successful operation of the PulsePak Prime, it must be ensured that: A suitable, dry compressed air supply to the compressed air manifold(s) is available and connected to the collector at all times. -
Page 29: Maintenance
Effective cleaning is reliant upon pulse frequency, duration and pulse compressed air pressure. The pulse duration is pre-set at 100 milliseconds. DO NOT change the factory setting without contacting an AAF International representative. GDED-IOM-216-B PulsePak... -

Check the dust disposal equipment for correct operation and comply with any lubrication or maintenance instructions in the relevant manufactures’ instructions. If AAF barrel top adapter mechanism is installed, check the condition of the flexible sleeve and replace if showing signs of wear or if torn. -
Page 31: Annual Maintenance
Remove the used solenoids from within the solenoid box enclosure and replace them with new items if required. NOTE: AAF recommends having a spare set of diaphragm and solenoid kits available at all times. 12.5 Filter removal and installation Disconnect power and lock out any electrical power sources before servicing. - Page 32 Procedure: Ensure that protective personal equipment (PPE) is worn, which may include protective clothing, breathing masks or breathing apparatus, head, hand, eye and ear protection, approved footwear. Ensure that a sufficient quantity of polythene sacks is available at the cartridge access door level. Turn off the compressed air and run the pulsing sequence allowing time for the compressed air in the manifold to be fully exhausted.
