INSTALLATION
A-2
Read this entire installation section before you
start installation.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Do not attempt to use this equipment until you have
thoroughly read all installation, operating and mainte-
nance information supplied with your eqUipment. They
include important safety precautions and detailed
operating and maintenance instructions.
A
WARNING
ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.
• Do not touch electrically live parts such
as internal wiring.
• Turn the input power off at the fuse box
before working on this equipment.
• Have a qualified person install and ser-
vice this equipment.
MOVING PARTS can injure.
• Do not operate with covers open or fil-
ter removed.
• Keep away from moving parts.
FIRE HAZARD!!
• Never use this product for filtering flam-
able, glowing or burning particles or liquids. Never use
this product for filtering aggressive vapors (such as
hydrochloric acid)
For safety reasons, most welding applications require
the installation of the preseparator along with a
Statiflex 6000-MS. This Preseparator will reduce the
risk of fire. Verify with a qualified engineer that the
complete system is properly designed to remove hot
particles from the airstream prior to the preseparator.
Only qualified personnel should install, use or service
this equipment.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Statiflex 6000-MS is a filtration system for low
vacuum, high volume extraction systems. This filter
system is often used in conjunction with Lincoln
SF2400 Fan units, maximum of 5 in operation at one
time, for a maximum capacity of 3,750 CFM (6,400
m
3 /h).
The Statiflex 6000-MS features two large cellu-
lose filter cartridges which provide 99.8% filtration with
1,400 ft2 of surface area (130m 2 ).
Dirty air enters through the preseparator, which sepa-
rates out larger particles, then into the inlet of the
Statiflex 6000-MS, through the outside of the filter car-
tridges and out the outlet.
The Statiflex 6000-MS uses an automatic filter clean-
ing system to maintain the filter and reduce mainte-
nance costs. Fume collected on the outside of the fil-
ter is knocked off by a blast of compressed air from
the cleaning system. Fume then drops into the dust
collection drum at the bottom of the unit.
When the pressure drop across the filter reaches a set
point due to an increase in fume on the outside of the
filter, a solenoid releases air from a compressed air
reservoir tank mounted inside the filter cartridge. This
air goes through several holes in the cleaning tube,
cleaning one section of the filter with multiple air jets.
The cleaning tube then shifts to the next section of the
filter until the pressure drop again reaches the set
point, triggering the next cleaning pulse.
A manual cleaning cycle is initiated by pressing the
button on the face of the control box. The system
pauses between sections of the filter, allowing the air
tank to repressurize. The Statiflex 6000-MS requires
90 - 105 psi of clean, dry compressed air to function
properly.
A timer in the control box can also set preset times for
automatic filter cleaning, on-line or off-line.
INSTALLING THE
STATIFLEX 6000-MS
A
WARNING
The installer is responsible for following local safety
codes and regulations.
Before drilling, verify locations of existing gas, water,
or electrical conduits.
This section describes installation of the Statiflex
6000-MS and preseparator only. For information
regarding the installation of wall mounted arms or
SF2400 Fans, consult the manuals packed with these
items. When using individual station fans, such as the
SF2400 fan, a K1743-1, 6" backdraft damper, should
be used at the outlet of each fan. This will prevent
dirty air from passing through idle fans and into the
room.
