- Page 4 The contents are dispersed down and directly into the receiving drum; the partic- ulate laden propellant is coalesced in the first stage of the Aerosolv 3601 high efficiency combination filter providing propellant flow to the carbon cartridge.
- Page 5 2. DO NOT use Aerosolv while smoking or near open flame. 3. Install anti-static wire to properly “ground” drum. 4. DO NOT use Aerosolv on a drum with less than 30-gallon capacity. 5. Remove Aerosolv to an empty drum once collection drum is 70% full (when contents reach within 10”...
- Page 6 Ensure the bung caps for each hole are in place. Remove the bung caps and store them in a safe place so that they may be used later. Thread the Aerosolv® unit into the 2” bung. Rotate clockwise until ground support plate firmly engages drum rim.
- Page 7 USING THE AEROSOLV® 6000 SYSTEM • Wear safety goggles while operating Aerosolv • Insert aerosol can, NOZZLE END DOWN, into Aerosolv housing sleeve, so that shoulder of can rests on gasket. Be sure to remove cap from aerosol can prior to insertion.
- Page 8 FILTER MAINTENANCE • Replace the activated carbon filter insert (inside upper portion) and the coalesceing filter with pull tab (inside Pull Tab lower housing) every 1000 cans or when the adsorption indicator no longer appears ‘RED’ when venting aerosol cans. More frequent change-outs may be necessary based on use and volume of the cans processed.
- Page 9 • Periodically check and empty the collected liquid content in the filter base if needed. To empty, remove the carbon filter housing from the aluminum filter base. • Unscrew the filter base from the drum and carefully drain the collected liquids through the AEROSOLV housing directly into the drum.
- Page 10 To assure proper seal during Aerosolv usage, check gaskets frequently and replace as required. • To replace gasket, remove white plastic sleeve from Aerosolv housing, then simply pull out old gasket and snap in replacement. COMPLIANCE...
- Page 11 • By installing Aerosolv® systems on two drums, non-chlorinated aerosols can be collected separately, then reclaimed as solvents, resulting in waste minimization credits. • Cans punctured using Aerosolv may be recycled with other scrap steel. Aerosolv leaves only a smooth edged hole.
- Page 12 If the liquid level has not yet reached the ruler, continue to puncture aerosol cans in accordance with the Aerosolv 6000 manufacturer’s operation and maintenance instructions. Repeat steps 2 through 6 to check the liquid level every 500 cans.
