Parker SmogHog SHM-C, Owner'S Manual

5

Ensure there is adequate access to the electrical components with 
ducting installed. 

3.3   Discharge Component Installation

Ensure to position the unit so that the clean air discharge is directed 
into an open area free of obstructions and with consideration for 
personnel safety.

3.4  Mechanical Installation

CRUSH HAZARD

Use adequate safety measures when lifting and 
assembling any heavy components. Consult your  
plant safety personnel for recommendations.
 Connect lifting slings and spreader bars to lifting lugs 
with clevis pins. Use spreader bars to distribute the 
load evenly. Location must be clear of all obstruc-
tions, such as utility lines or roof overhangs.

When the SHM unit is to be 

mounted directly to a machine, 

you 

will be furnished with a mounting flange and drawing to illustrate 
the bolt pattern and hardware required for proper mounting to their 
equipment. Be sure to seal around the entire perimeter between the 
mounting flange and the existing machine with an appropriate seal-
ant in a figure-eight pattern around each bolt hole.

Units with 

sumps

 utilize 10˝ inlets and optional collar flange(s) that 

come mounted to the unit. They can be rearranged and mounted 
however desired based on application needs. Be sure to use a poly-
urethane sealant or gasket to prevent leaks. It is recommended to use 
ducting that is liquid tight to prevent leaks.
All other transitions, ducting or plenums required for unit set-up and 
operation are not included with the equipment.

Unit should always be secured to the floor when 

installed in this configuration. 

Secure the unit at all four corners using the standard unit feet or exten-
sion leg foot pads. At least one of the two holes per foot pad on the 
extension legs should be secured. See Figure 1 for reference.

Ceiling mounted

 units are suspended by means of 1⁄2˝ threaded rods 

(item #1 in Figure 3) which run through weld nuts (item #2 in Figure 3) 
in the top corners of the units. Refer to Figure 2 for weld nut locations 
on SHM-11 models. Additional support should be used for auxiliary 
equipment or ducting. Do not suspend units larger than the SHM-11 
from the ceiling.

The SMOG-HOG should not be used for support of 

personnel or material. Check with local building code/

structural engineer to ensure proper installation to roof 

truss or any other mounting method.

3. Installation

3.1 Inspection and Off Loading

As soon as your equipment arrives, it should be carefully inspected 
to make certain that it is in good condition and that all items listed 
on the packing list have been received. Even though the items are 
carefully loaded and tied down at the time of shipment, it is possible 
for them to be damaged or become dislodged in transit. 

Report any damage(s) and/or shortage(s) immediately. It becomes 
increasingly difficult for either the carrier or the supplier to assume 
responsibility for any damages after too much time has elapsed. 
Check all loads separately. 

The following steps should be taken immediately upon receipt 
of your shipment; this will assure and expedite claim payments 
 and replacement of missing or damaged items.

1.  Begin your inspection of the shipment BEFORE it is unloaded.

2.  Check for damage to any exposed items, particularly at the tie-

down locations.

3.  Photograph any damage. Do this BEFORE the equipment is 

unloaded.

4.  Check Bill of Lading quantities and description. Note any discrep-

ancies on all copies of the Bill of Lading and have them acknowl-
edged (the carrier should sign). Damage description should also 
be written directly on, or attached to, the Bill of Lading, and 
should also be signed by the driver.

Contact the insurance company and the shipper at once so that 
damages and/or shortages can be corrected and a claim can be 
filed without delay.

TIP OVER HAZARD

Lift the SHM unit and components by the packing  
skids or on the lifting eyes located on the top of the 
unit in each corner. Do not lift the unit by placing 
lift truck forks through the legs on the underside of  
the unit.

3.2   Installation Preparation and Planning

Prior to the actual installation of the SHM, the location should 
be readied. This would include having an adequate lay-
down area for all components, and access for the crane, 
forklifts and other machinery. The unit will come pre-assembled. 
The majority of installation will be electrical hook-up, and hanging, 
mounting, or securing the unit. An electrical source, lighting and 
other equipment should be readily available to aid in the installation.

In most cases engineering drawings of your specific equipment and 
options will be provided. These and all available documentation 
for your system should be thoroughly reviewed prior to beginning 
any installation work. This includes the unit and electrical controls. 
Ensure to leave an appropriate amount of room around your unit to 
allow for maintenance and servicing. A minimum of 2-1/2 feet (0.76 
m) of clearance is recommended for service in front of the filter 
access door and 3 feet (1 m) for the rear electrical access per NEC.
