Cleaning the Fines Collector and Diaphragm
The fines collector and diaphragm are made of durable latex material.
With regular care, these parts can withstand a considerable number of
duty cycles. Both parts can be cleaned in a mild detergent and water
solution and rinsed with water. The parts should be allowed to air dry,
avoiding heat and sunlight.
After drying, both parts should be dusted lightly with talcum powder
(NYTAL 200 or any commercial unscented talcum powder). The excess
talcum powder can be blown off with low-pressure compressed air.
Return the parts to their protective foil envelopes for storage, as light
and some chemicals in the air can be harmful to the latex, causing
holes and cracks to appear prematurely.
Users' Tip: For longer life of the fines collectors, rotate the use of
several collectors over time. For example, use fines collector #1 on
Monday, wash and store the collector at the end of the day and use
collector #2 on Tuesday, etc.
collectors over the course of a week, or whatever your usage requires.
Allowing the latex to 'rest' before it is put back into regular service can
significantly extend the life of the individual collector.
