  • Page 13: Bi Blower

    BI BLOWER The BI motor (Figure 14) requires little or no routine servicing. The motor, blower wheel, and motor compartment gaskets should be checked twice a year under normal usage. It is very important that the blower wheel be aligned correctly to prevent interference with the inlet horn and also to maximize the air flow performance.

  • Page 15: Filter Service

    FILTER SERVICE Filter service is required when a reduction of airflow (suction) is observed. The optional pressure gauge (Figure 18) is used to judge the amount of particulate collected on the filter. In most applications, a reading of 2.0” is typical of when the filter(s) should be replaced. Figure 18.

  • Page 16: Ad Module - Refillable

    AD MODULE - REFILLABLE: WEAR ADEQUATE PERSONAL PROTECTIVE DEVICES WHEN REFILLING AS AIRBORNE CARBON DUST IS RELEASED DURING THIS OPERATION. AD’s are NOT factory-filled and must be filled with charcoal before unit operation. The adsorption material (activated carbon or other) can be emptied from the module and refilled with fresh adsorber. Refer to Figure 22. It is important to get the AD module as full as possible as any low spots or air gaps will allow the gas being captured to by-pass or be exposed to a reduced amount of scrubbing.
