MAINTENANCE
ROUTINE SERVICE & mAINTENANCE
To sustain optimal performance level, routine Service &
Maintenance of the System is required. it is recommended to
empty the Drums based on level of annual Consumable usage,
Type of welding process,
Condition of Base metal & Overall type of usage & air quality
extracted through the systems.
Statiflex 6000 Routine maintenance includes:
•
Check & clean the Preseparator aluminium mesh filters.
recommended to keep a supply of new preseperator filters to
allow zero system down time during cleaning routine.
•
Replace main filter catridge's if necessary
•
Check for correct cleaning system air pressure at filter units.
•
Check Statiflex 6000 control panel, ensure there is no Alarm
status & filter cleaning system is functioning properly.

When using the Weld fume Extraction or local exhaust
Ventilation (LEV) equipment, sparks from welding,
Cutting or grinding Process can cause fire with in the
equipment. To minimize the potential fire, operation,
service 7 maintenance guidelines for fume extraction or
LEV equipment should be followed..
Check with local authorities for regulations governing the
disposal of this material.
Turn off all fans before opening or inspecting the drums or filters.

SEE WARNING ABOVE.
Install a new bag, replace the drum, seal
tightly. Check with local authorities for regulations governing the
disposal of this material. SEE WARNINGS ABOVE.
REPLACING THE FILTER CARTRIDGES
Replace the filter cartridges when they have been damaged or
when the indicator shows that the filter is clogged. The filter
indicator will flash slowly and the alarm buzzer will sound if the
cleaning function does not reduce the pressure drop below the set
point after 240 pulses (-4 hours). This could be due to a saturat ed
filter, Jack of compressed air, low air pressure, cleaning
equipment malfunction or dirt, oil or moisture in the compressed
air . Oil or moisture in the inlet airstream will also greatly reduce
the life of the filter.
Improper maintenance of the filter unit such as operating with fully
saturated main filter over extended period of time may reduce
equipment life, filter efficiency & increase chance of over heating
blower motors & potential fire hazard.
If routine service & maintenance is not performed, appli-
cations & process with oils, anti spatter, tip-dip and/or
moisture may cause damage to the system equipment,
CFM level & may void the equipment & filter warranty.
Check with local authorities for regulations governing the
disposal of this material.
