The Air Handling Unit will have banding straps to secure it to the pallet base which need to be removed and also a protective layer of ‘black wrap’, which needs to be carefully removed also.

  • Page 9: Cyclean-R System Overview

    CyClean-R is available as both a single-sided and double-sided cleaning configuration. To use the system in a double- sided configuration, it must be positioned over two separate rollers. A CyClean-R system includes the Meech Air Handling Unit (AHU) which incorporates the filtration for the system and provides the vacuum pressure and blowing pressure airflows.

  • Page 10: How Cyclean-R Works

    How CyClean-R Works CyClean-R delivers consistent removal of dry, unbonded contamination from the web surface (particle removal to 0.5 micron is achievable). The process is achieved from a combination of steps: 1. The web passes through a cloud of ionisation on web entry of CyClean-R. The cloud of ionisation is created by the 924IPS bars included, which neutralises any static charges.

  • Page 11: Installation Procedure

    Installation Procedure CAUTION Meech CyClean-R web cleaning systems should only be used in installations for which they are designed. If the CyClean-R is used in any other way than instructed in this manual, it will be considered improper use.

  • Page 31: Positioning Of Air Handling Unit

    Positioning of Air Handling Unit WARNING Keep a minimum distance of at 0.5m is kept around the Air Handling Unit (AHU) to permit proper airflow required for ventilation. Restricting airflow can damage the equipment. When positioning the Air Handling Unit, it is important to ensure the ducts being used reach the CyClean-R manifold.

  • Page 32: Ducting

    Meech does not supply ducting with CyClean-R systems. This can be purchased separately. Meech offers a standard ducting kit suitable for the system ordered. The kit comes in various lengths dependant on the CyClean-R web width. The kits offered as standard are specified below.
  • Page 33 Connecting the Ducting The CyClean-R manifold is designed with three pressure chambers, the two outer chambers are vacuum pressure and the central chamber is positive pressure. It is vital all ducting is connected to the correct chamber from the Air Handling Unit to the CyClean-R manifold. CAUTION Ducting configurations will differ depending on CyClean-R system purchased.
  • Page 34 All ducting kits supplied by Meech will include hose clamps, to secure the flexible ducting to the equipment. 1. Place the hose clamp over the flexible ducting and then slide the ducting over the spigot on the CyClean-R manifold.

  • Page 35: Operating The Cyclean-R

    Operating the CyClean-R Before Use Before using the CyClean-R system it is important that you have read and fully understand this manual. IMPORTANT Testing of the system is recommended before it is used for full production System Setup The net airflow into either side of the CyClean-R head is adjusted by bleeding off a volume of the blowing (positive) airflow to create an airflow bias in favour of vacuum.
  • Page 36 Once the bleed valve has been set, ensure the knurled screw is tightened. CAUTION It is recommended that you monitor the system when it is first installed. If any problems are found, please stop using the CyClean-R system and contact Meech International or your local distributor.
