The cooling air produced by the HazLoc Vortex A/C in the enclosure is vented into the hazardous area (outside of the enclosure) through the purge system’s spark arrestor vent. The spark arrestor vent must be properly sized to accept the additional cold air flow generated by the HazLoc Vortex A/C to prevent over-pressurization of the enclosure.
If it is suspected that the compressed air filter has not been maintained after an extended period of operation, there may be pipe scale or foreign material in the HazLoc Vortex A/C. If the unit is not cooling sufficiently, there may be pipe scale or foreign material in the orifices of the generator(s) in the unit.
1. The HazLoc Vortex A/C must be installed on the top of the enclosure on a flat horizontal surface of a Type 4X enclosure. Alternately, the HazLoc Vortex A/C can be mounted on the side of the enclosure. When the unit is side mounted (on a flat vertical surface of a Type 4X enclosure), the compressed air inlet for Models 7xx5 must be pointing up, and the stainless steel shroud must face down;...
Vortex A/C with a length of 3/8” pipe (not supplied). Install the compressed air filter as close as possible to the HazLoc Vortex A/C, in a location where the temperature does not exceed 125°F (52°C). Allow the filter to hang at the side of the enclosure as shown in the installation drawing.
Elevated Surface Temperatures Because the HazLoc Vortex A/C operates using the vortex principle, hot exhaust air is generated and released at low pressure from the opening in the stainless steel shroud on the back of the unit. This exhaust air can reach temperatures up to 225°F (107°C) under normal conditions.
