ARM-EVAC® 250 & 200 SYSTEMS
SAFETY AND APPLICATION
PACE Fume Extraction systems are designed to reduce the level of harmful contaminants from the work
environment and to assist in the achievement of recommended health and safety requirements for local
exhaust ventilation and contaminant removal. Be sure to follow all Application and Maintenance
guidelines contained herein and precautions contained in other relevant product safety literature (i.e.,
Material Safety Data Sheets) provided with the substances and equipment producing the fumes to be
extracted.
DISCLAIMER
PACE hereby disclaims all responsibility for any personal injury, property damage, fine, citation or
penalty imposed by any government or private entity which results from any use, misuse or mis-
application of this product, failure of the user to regularly maintain the product according to the
recommended guidelines, or failure to adequately monitor fume extraction exhaust air and the ambient
workplace air for the presence of harmful levels of gases, fumes and particulates. Compliance with all
applicable environmental and personnel safety regulations is the sole responsibility of the user and
adequate self-monitoring of exhaust air released into the atmosphere or the workplace as well as
monitoring of the ambient workplace air is strongly recommended. To insure continued effective
performance, the following guidelines must be followed.
SAFETY
DANGERS
1. PACE Fume Extractors are not intended to be used as a substitute for devices such as personal
protective respirators which are designed to remove poorly adsorbed substances including carbon
monoxide, methane, hydrogen, acetylene and other gases. Risk of serious injury or death, fire or
explosion may result from improper use. If in doubt, consult with your industrial hygienist or PACE.
2. Never use PACE Fume Extraction Systems to extract fumes from highly flammable liquids and gases
such as Ether, Gasoline (Petrol) and others. Risk of serious injury, death, fire or explosion may result.
3.
High concentrations of airborne contaminants such as Methyl Ethyl Keytone, Cyclohexone,
Ozone and others, when contacted with activated carbon, can undergo oxidation, decomposition or
polymerization resulting in exothermic reactions or heat generation. PACE Fume Extraction Systems
must not be used to extract fumes from these substances when high concentrations are present.
4. Failure to comply with the application and maintenance guidelines, filter replacement schedules,
monitoring recommendations and safety guidelines contained herein and in other relevant product
safety literature (i.e., Material Safety Data Sheets) provided with the substances and equipment
producing the fumes to be extracted could result in risk of serious injury, fire or explosion.
WARNINGS
1. Do not attempt to clean any PACE fume extraction filters for reuse. Cleaning the filters will severely
damage the filter media and, consequently, the filter's performance. This will result in unfiltered,
contaminated air being returned to the working environment. Unfiltered air can also damage the motor
pump.
