WARNING! 

The Port-A-Cart is NOT designed to collect 
wet or oily particulate and should not be in-
stalled in applications collecting coolants, 
grease, processing fluids or other types of 
liquid aerosols. Contact the Trion sales de-
partment for special units for these type in-
stallations at 800-884-0002. 

The Port-A-Cart Cartridge Air Cleaner is de-
signed to pick-up and collect dry solid particu-
late such as weld fumes and industrial dust.     
Clean air is then discharged back into the 

work space.  The unit is equipped with cast-
ers, a source capture arm, a filtration compart-
ment, and a blower compartment.  Simply roll 
the unit to a level location near the source of 
pollutants, adjust the arm, and place the cast-
ers in the locked position.  Then connect the 
electrical power and the unit is ready for op-
eration.  
 
In operation, the pick-up arm delivers the con-
taminated air to the cartridge filter for collec-
tion.  A Minihelic gauge monitors the pressure 
across the cartridge filter and indicates when 
cleaning should take place. 
 

INSTALLATION 
 

1. 

UNPACK AND INSPECT

 

 

Upon receipt, all shipping containers and their 
contents should be examined for damage. Any 
damage occurring in shipment must be imme-
diately reported to the carrier, an inspection 
report completed and a claim filed with the 
carrier at the receiving point. 
The Port-A-Cart cabinet is shipped assem-
bled.  Please check to ensure all components 
are included: 

• 

Painted steel cabinet with integral car-
tridge filter,  casters, and power cord 

• 

Minihelic gauge 

• 

Drop-Out tray 

• 

Source capture arm, hood, and mounting 
hardware (shipped loose) 

• 

Impregnated carbon filter (odor control)

 

 

2. 

INSTALLING SOURCE CAPTURE ARM

 

 
To simplify packaging and reduce the possibil-
ity of shipping damage, the source capture 
arm is shipped separately.  The necessary 
mounting hardware is included with the arm.  
Using washers and bolts provided, secure the 
arm to the cabinet.  The mounting holes are 
pre-drilled.  The tension is adjustable at each 
arm elbow (five places).  The hood tension 
adjustment is located outside the hood.
