Installation, Operation and Maintenance manual DFPRE Large Dust Collectors MPORTANT Please read this manual carefully before installation. This manual should be read in conjunction with the respective controller manual supplied with the dust collector. Product reliability, warranty and safe operation may be compromised by not following the guidance given in these documents.
Delivery is an integral part of the manual. Other items of equipment, not supplied under the Scope of Delivery from Donaldson, should be installed, operated and maintained according to the documentation supplied with the respective equipment. Any modification carried out on the ‘as supplied’ equipment may reduce reliability and safety, and will nullify warranty;...

This can be achieved by applying a continuous 5 mm bead of sealing compound to the mounting surface, along each side of the hole pattern. For non-Donaldson equipment please also check supplier’s IOM manual for any specific requirements.
Snow and wind loads on outside installations. For collector weights and dimensions refer to the datasheet, publication number DOCAM1382701 (DFPRE 4L and 6L) or DOCAM1449401 (DFPRE 9L and 12L). General guidance to lifting The collector should be lifted using either the four-point lifting arrangement or the fork-lifting arrangement by a qualified competent person (refer to figures 2 and 3).
Installation, Operation and Maintenance manual DFPRE Large Dust Collectors Positioning the collector Lift the collector into position following the general guidance to lifting. Take care not to damage dust container and cables when using fork lifting method. 2. Using spirit levels, line up both horizontally and vertically, using shims where required.

Check that the compressed air supply is maintained at the recommended pressure. 3. Adjust the slide gate as described in commissioning. 4. Switch on controller. Shut-down sequence At the end of any period of operation it is most important that all residual deposits are cleared from the filter cartridges, casing, and discharge hopper.
Installation, Operation and Maintenance manual DFPRE Large Dust Collectors OPERATION On installations where the inlet duct is relatively short, this procedure may result in a dust emission occurring at the inlet and therefore may not be an appropriate procedure if the dust being handled is dangerous. Therefore a Risk Assessment must be carried out to ensure the final procedure is safe.
Installation, Operation and Maintenance manual DFPRE Large Dust Collectors Dust disposal For safe handling of the dust container an assessment must be made to satisfy the requirements of the European Directive 90/269/EEC on manual handling of loads. Dust containers may require regular emptying. Dust containers should securely replaced and resealed prior to collector restart.
Ensure the pneumatic system is fully isolated and depressurized before any work is carried out. For ancillary equipment not manufactured by Donaldson, refer to manufacturer’s instructions. If it is unavoidable to work on the equipment while a potentially explosive atmosphere is present, care should be taken to avoid introducing ignition sources not present during expected operation.
Installation, Operation and Maintenance manual DFPRE Large Dust Collectors Routine inspection To maintain the optimum performance of the dust collector, a routine inspection should be made to minimise down-time in the event of equipment malfunction, particularly on continuous performance applications and to ensure the equipment is maintained to its original supply condition.
