As the accumulation of aluminium grinding dust produces a potential risk of explosion, the interior of the WNA-AL protected against sparking due to the explosion-proof engine and the grounded internal parts. The operator has to ensure that in the environment of the unit, such accumulations are not produced, e.g.
3.2. General safety instructions WARNING Dangers arising from improper use / unauthorised operations. The operator must ensure that their authorised personnel are familiar with all the safety indications in this manual in advance. The operator is responsible for ensuring that all work is carried out by authorised and qualified personnel.

● First the filter unit as delivered must be transported to its destination. Then lift the filter unit off the pallet. Therefore use the lifting rings (B). Use appropriate lifting tools (forklift truck, transport crane,...) with a sufficient minimum load-carrying capacity. The filter unit must be secured against tilting and slipping when it is moved, lifted or put down.
5. Commissioning WARNING Dangers arising from a defective condition of the unit. Make sure that the measures described in this chapter are completed before the commissioning of the unit. All doors of the unit must be closed and all necessary connections must be attached before turning the unit on.
Only operate the system if the necessary suction line is fitted. The suction line must be dimensioned according to the application. If this has not already been carried out by TEKA, a suitably qualified employee must be consulted. If the suction line includes extraction elements (e.g.
According to the temperature and the relative air humidity of the extracted air, the exhaust air can also be moisture. In every case, the exhaust air has to be returned outside so that the work-ing space is not too highly moisture which can lead to the formation of condensate. 5.2.
5.3. Water supply / water quality Due to the moistening of the outlet air, the water is little by little extracted from the filter unit. That is why water must be regularly be refilled. It is ensured by the automatic monitoring of the water level and the automatic refilling through the electrovalve.
5.3.1. Additive: corrosion protection "hebro®protect 95-103" (optional) A corrosion-protective agent should be added to the water in order to prevent the formation of rust, especially in case of separation of acidly reacting substances. This is primarily required when separating metal dust and scale dust. If you ordered a corrosion-protective agent when ordering the unit, add it to the water when commissioning the unit.
6. Operating the system 6.1. Explanation of the operating elements Control functions, setting options for programs, menu navigation, error messages, etc. are described in the enclosed operating manual of the unit control. There is also an explanation of the elements of the control panel. CAUTION Possibility of hazardous dust accumulation.
7. Maintenance In accordance with national regulations, the operator is obliged to carry out repeat and functional tests. Unless otherwise specified by national regulations, we recommend regular visual inspections and functional tests of the device as described in the chapter “Maintenance intervals”. You find the chapter “Maintenance intervals”...
7.2. Cleaning/replacing: aluminium mesh filter and droplet separator ● Open the service door (see chapter 2.1). ● Detach the grounding cable of the mesh filter and the mist eliminator (see chapter 2.1) from the housing wall. Therefore detach the protective grid, if necessary (see chapter 2.1). ●...
7.4. Maintenance of the magnet valves The magnet valves (see chapter 2.1) must be regularly checked for their proper functioning. ● Set the wet separator to maintenance condition. For that purpose the power supply for the control must be maintained, but the fan must be switched off. The door of the control housing must be opened.
8. ATEX operation The following ATEX zoning and ignition source analysis is applied to the filter unit. 8.1. ATEX zoning for WNA-AL Area Ex zone Reason/Cause Dusts Gases, vapours, mist Installation location of No Zone Installation in areas at risk of explosion not filter unit, spark permitted.
Blower line No Zone Penetration of dust is reliably excluded Zone 2 Emission of hydrogen cannot be definitively excluded. 8.2. Sources of ignition If the operator is not able to reliably exclude the possibility of the presence of effective sources of ignition, such as a) flames and hot gases b) mechanically generated sparks...
A recommissioning of the device must only occur if it is ensured that the system is functionally equivalent to the original state. Repairs may only be carried out by TEKA personnel or, after consultation with TEKA GmbH, by the personnel authorised by the operator.
