INSTALLATION INSTALLATION WARNING WARNING: Flammable material. Risk of fire Paper label and small cardboard applications that are at risk of being drawn into the extractor, must be fitted with a spark arrestor device.

Tech and plus (BCP6 and BCP7). The internal DPX board has a potential free contact connected to pin 4 and 5 of the Lumberg connector on the rear panel of the DPX fume extraction system. If the extractor motor is running and no alarm condition is detected, the contact will be closed.
The hose can be shortened by removing the end connector with an internal thread, cutting the hose with a knife and wire cutters, then refitting the connector to the hose. Special extraction enclosures may be required for optimum performance, contact a local Domino distributor for assistance.

It is possible for the build up to break off and enter the extraction unit; where the build up is hot, it can ignite the dust in the DPX. If incorrectly setup and maintained, particle collections can build up, forming lumps of debris. In high production rate applications and/or with some materials, these lumps may be hot.
WARNING: Flammable material. Risk of fire Carry out the following recommendations. Smouldering debris can be drawn from the laser head into the DPX. This represents a fire risk. The practices detailed below, will reduce that risk. • Carry out a risk assessment for your installation.
The main filter is heavy. Do not lift the equipment by yourself. Notes: (1) The DPX has visual alarms: refer to “Fault Finding and Repair” on page 33. (2) Instruction sheets are provided with each filter exchange kit, not in this manual.
RECOMMENDED ROUTINE MAINTENANCE The User’s own risk assessment of the laser equipment setup, the materials being lasered and any changes to the setup, plus their experience of local conditions (e.g. dust build up) must be used to create a preventative maintenance and replacement schedule. Due to the local variations that may be present in any particular laser application, the following Daily, Weekly, Monthly, Annual frequencies are for guidance only and must be backed up by local risk assessment and experience.
Example of a Maintenance Schedule: Activity Interval Extraction nozzle Removal of debris build-ups onto the nozzle or within the extraction area Extraction nozzle and hose Check correct installation condition and that all fumes are being drawn into the nozzle Check and Clean Lens Check correct positioning of extraction nozzle to ensure it has not been moved dangerously close to the position of the laser marking area Extraction unit display status...
HOW TO EMPTY A HOSE In order to remove any dust deposits in the hose, we recommend to tap the hose while the extraction unit is running. If possible, position the hose in such a way that a gradient is created in the direction of the extraction, so detached dust residues can be sucked into the pre-filter.
CHANGING MAIN FILTER WARNING: Potentially harmful substance. Risk of personal injury Always wear appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) as identified during your risk assessment, when working on the equipment and when changing filters. Filters must be changed in accordance with the instruction sheet provided with the filter kit.
Filter Bag WARNING: Do not attempt to lift the main filter by the handle. DPX Fume Extraction System - Filter Locations AIRSPEED SETTING Note: The lowest air speed level possible should be used, so that all fumes produced by the process are drawn into the capture nozzle, and debris deposits on the laser lens, guarding and local machinery are minimal.
FAULT FINDING AND REPAIR FAULT SYMPTOMS, CAUSES AND REMEDIES Warning Status Audible alarm sounds every 20 seconds and the keypad will flash red every 10 seconds. Allows operator time to identify fault and take remedial action. Alarm Status Audible alarm sounds every 1 second and the keypad will flash red every 1 second.
