Installation and operation in dust-explosive or gas-explosive areas is for- bidden. From the first time it is used, the DUSTEX contains dusts that pose a health hazard. Emptying and maintenance processes, including removal of the dust collection container, must be performed by expert personnel who are wearing appropriate protective gear.
Note: To guarantee flawless operation of the system, the factory default operating pa- rameters can be modified only with the consent of the ESTA company. The connections must be performed by an authorized professional. The supply voltage and frequency data must correspond to those on the model plate.
High voltage! The connection must be made only when power to the grid is cut off. 4. Intended use Devices in the DUSTEX line are suitable for single- and multiple-location aspira- tion and as centralized exhaust equipment. P series devices, with cartridge filters, are for suction of dry, free-flowing, non- explosive dusts.

6. Transport and commissioning 6.1 Delivery and transport At delivery, the DUSTEX is fastened to a pallet. After the protective cover and the bottom fasteners have been removed, the device can be lifted by a crane using the 4 loops attached to the support feet on the upper side.
All work on the fan must be done only when it is not running. It must be ensured that the motor cannot be turned on unintentionally. This can be achieved by using a lockable safety switch, for example. DUSTEX 663064-52-03...
To start up the system, the red-yellow main switch is turned to the ON position. The system is now ready to operate. The rotary switch is for selecting the desired mode of operation. The red-yellow main switch serves as an emergency shut-off. 663064-52-03 DUSTEX...
Before the device is placed into storage, it is recommended that it be cleaned with a damp cloth, that the filter be cleaned, and that the dust container be emptied. The device must never be cleaned with flowing water. Get the most from ESTA’s maintenance service! DUSTEX 663064-52-03...

8.3 Replacing the filters / tubes Only original ESTA filters or tubes must be used; use of other products will void the warranty. Before the filter is replaced, it must first be cleared of loose dust using the available cleaning system.

Improper installation leads to considerably reduced per- formance, and perfect air filtration cannot be guaranteed. When installing the original ESTA filter, follow the same sequence as for removal, but in reverse. With antistatic filters, remember to attach the earthing (ground) strap to the provided screw connection.
