Inlet Installation
6.4.1. Inlet Suction Dip Tube
One of the biggest factors of a successful Purge install is where you place the suction
dip tube in the tank. There is only one suction tube on standard models, and it can only
be placed in one location.
•
The maximum chip size the Purge can handle is ¼”. If larger chips are
present, an optional screen or basket can be added to separate the larger
chips out.
•
In less-than-ideal cases where some of the debris may be missed, the Purge
will still provide an excess of clean coolant directly to the clean side of the
machine tool tank.
•
This will provide the machine tool with more coolant up-time; however, you
may have to clean out the tank periodically. Also, because of the Purge’s high
flow, it will eventually capture debris that is in suspension, even with a poorly
placed dip tube.
•
A minimum coolant depth
of 4” at lowest is required. 5” or more is preferred.
•
Can be installed in spare coolant pump opening or a hole may need to be cut.
•
A 1 ¾” hole saw may be required. Refer to hole saw guide for more info.
