EO Abator Operation and Installation Manual

Arrangement 2
The exhaust system is a sealed type which uses the blower in the EO Abator to move the exhaust out of the
building. This duct is under positive pressure and must be sealed. It must be dedicated to the EO Abator exhaust
only. The suggested ducting to use is Selkirk Metalbestos Model PS in 152 mm (6 in.) size. It must be installed per
the manufacturer’s recommendation.
The 152 mm (6 in.) Model PS ducting can be used for runs up to 183 meters (600 ft.) long minus 12 meters (40 ft.)
for each 90° elbow.
The Metalbestos adapter (part number 78-8078-9813-1) is needed to connect the EO Abator exhaust to the
Metalbestos ducting, and is available through the 3M Health Care Service Center.
Connect the Metalbestos adapter to the EO Abator exhaust using high temperature RTV between the two flanges
and then clamp the flanges together with clamp (part number 78-8069-7474-3) to lock the parts together.
The termination for either ducting arrangement must not be within 8 meters (25 ft.) of any opening to the building
interior such as fresh air inlets, unsealed windows, and/or pedestrian traffic.
