ures when installing this unit.
! Be sure the floor or other structural

! Do not use equipment to support
site-installed ducts, interconnecting
piping, or electrical services. All
ducts, piping, or electrical services
supplied by others must be ad-
equately supported.
! Use only mounting hardware spe-
cifically designed for the structure or
material supporting the equipment.

ware.
! Special installation may be required
where gasoline or volatile liquids are
present − see NEC Article 511 or CEC

 The extractor is intended to be installed
indoors on a reinforced concrete found-
ation. Units can be installed outdoors
when equipped with appropriate ex-
haust hoods and remote controls. See
Outdoor Installation section below.
 Prepare locations for rear bolt holes and
set anchors prior to final installation.
Moving The Equipment
1 Lifting Forks
Use lifting forks to move unit.
Extend forks beyond opposite side of small
containers and beyond midpoint of larger/
longer containers.
Use lifting eyes and hoist to lift unit. See Sec-
tion 5-3 for additional lifting information.
Water, Compressed Air, Power Supplies
2 Water Supply For Optional Sprinkler
Head − 1/2 NPT Fitting −15 psig (103
kPa) Minimum
3 Compressed Air Supply (1 in. NPT
Connection)
(90−100 psi/621 − 689 kPa)
4 AC Power Supply
 A dedicated 230 volt AC individual
branch circuit protected by time delay
(type J) fuses or circuit breaker is re-
quired for each unit. See Section 5-6.
Position unit near the welding operation and
close to water and compressed air supplies,
AC power supply, and particle collection
containers. Be sure equipment is accessible
for maintenance.
Clearance
Maintain adequate clearance from heat
sources and avoid interference with utilities.
See Section 5-2 for specific clearance re-
quirements.
Ductwork
Select a location that ensures straight inlet
and outlet ducts and minimizes directional
changes in ductwork. Avoid elbows immedi-
ately in front of inlet.
Foundation
The foundation must be able to support the
entire weight of the unit and the collected
material. Piping and ductwork must not be
supported by the extractor.
Prepare the foundation in the selected loca-
tion. Install 3/4 in. (19 mm) diameter anchor
bolts that extend a minimum of 1-3/4 in. (44.5
mm) above the foundation.
If explosion-protection devices will be part of
the installed system, locate the extractor in
accordance with local code requirements
(example NFPA 654). These codes may re-
quire units be located either outside or
against an exterior wall.
Outdoor Installation
If unit will be located outdoors, install an ap-
propriate exhaust hood and remote controls.
Consider the effects of condensation
caused by the temperature difference
between the process airstream and outdoor
temperatures.
