Information about the device

Device description

Air cleaners are used to filter the room air. On building sites and renovation areas high concentrations of dust can arise, for instance when using angle grinders or during blasting, chiseling or demolition operations as well as when mixing dry mortar or tile cement.
Depending on the inserted filter, the air cleaners of the TAC series serve to eliminate various dusts, e.g. from asbestos, building rubble, quartz, flour, wood, etc., but also mold spores, paint particles and mineral fibres in the air, possibly arising during the above-mentioned operations.
This dust is to be vacuumed off as close as possible to the point of origin in order to reduce the pollution of the breathing air to a minimum. Depending on the used filter quality it is permissible to employ the device for the separation of quartz ferrous mineral  dusts, wood dust, lead-containing dusts, artificial mineral fibers high-temperature fibers.
Application as vacuum generator for mold remediation and asbestos abatement is also a possibility. In case of other hazardous substances there are additional requirements; hence  observe the corresponding Technical Rules for Hazardous Substances (TRGS) or the country-specific regulations.

The device is suited for:

• producing a vacuum in a room, e.g. in heavily contaminated spaces;
• air purification in workspaces via air circulation, e.g. indoor building sites, workshops etc.;
• producing overpressure in a room, e.g. cleanroom;
• supplying filtered fresh air.

The device is structured as follows:

• housing with stacking aid
• adjustable fan for air transport
• filter monitoring for air volume flow

The device may be equipped with various filters. It provides the  user with the possibility of configuring both the filter quality and the filter chain arrangement for the respective field of application. The filters must be selected according to the area of application.
The device is approvable for asbestos abatement as per TRGS 519, dust class H.

Info
The filters are not included in the scope of delivery! Choose the filters according to the area of application from our filter range. Insert the selected filters prior to initial start-up.

Transport and storage

Note
If you store or transport the device improperly, the device may be damaged. Note the information regarding transport and storage of the device.

Transport

Before transporting the device, observe the following:

• Switch the device off.
• Hold onto the mains plug while pulling the power cable out of the mains socket.
• Do not use the power cable to drag the device

After transporting the device, proceed as follows:

• Set up the device in an upright position after transport.

Storage

When the device is not being used, observe the following storage conditions:

• dry and protected from frost and heat
• in an upright position where it is protected from dust and direct sunlight
• with a cover to protect it from invasive dust, if necessary

Assembly and start-up

Scope of delivery

• 1 x Device
• 1 x Manual

Unpacking the device

1. Open the cardboard box and take the device out.
2. Completely remove the packaging.
3. Fully unwind the power cable. Make sure that the power cable is not damaged and that you do not damage it during unwinding.

Assembly

Inserting the filters

Info
The filters are not included in the scope of delivery! Choose the filters according to the area of application from our filter range. Insert the selected filters prior to initial start-up.

Prior to start-up the filter chain of the device must be configured according to the desired field of application

1. Open the tension locks (2) on both sides of the device.

2. Remove the front cover (3).
   

3. For all filter installations always observe the correct flow direction according to the direction of the air current (air flow direction: from back to front)!

4. If installed, remove the coarse or fine filters (9, 10, 11) from the device.
   

5. Loosen the knurled screws (13) and remove the filter frame (14) from the device.
   

6. If installed, remove the HEPA filters (12) from the device.
   

7. Insert the HEPA filter (12) into the device.
   

8. Put the filter frame (14) back into the device and tighten the knurled screws (13).
   

9. Insert a new coarse or fine filter (9, 10, 11) into the device.
   

10. Reassemble the front cover (3) and close the tension locks (2).
    

Filter types (not included in the scope of delivery)

The designated air filters are especially geared to these devices and come with the largest possible filter surface based on the geometric dimensions. This ensures maximum air flow rate and service life for safe operation.

Note
Please note that only one refilter (9, 10, 11) can be implemented in the device at a time. Operation without profiler is not advisable, for otherwise the fan could be damaged and the lifetime of the high efficiency particulate air filter (14) is reduced. Filter ladder and configuration depend on the pollutant particle size, filtration efficiency and the field of application. The filter technology is monitored by a sensor. The fan and filter arrangement in the device corresponds to the general configuration for the air filtration of coarse dusts and fine particulates or the separation of suspended matter according to EN 60335-2-69 up to dust class H. Here the filtration of dust particles and other suspended material harmful and hazardous to health has priority. The filter chain must be operated in a vacuum, i.e. with a terminal fan

Start-up

When positioning the device, observe the minimum distance from walls or other objects as described in the chapter Technical annex.

• Before restarting the device, check the condition of the power cable. If there are doubts as to the sound condition, contact the customer service.
• Only put up the device in an upright, stable position on firm ground.
• Do not create tripping hazards when laying the power cable or other electric cables, especially when positioning the device in the middle of the room. Use cable bridges.
• Make sure that extension cables are completely unrolled.
• Position the device near the source of air contamination.
• When positioning the device, keep a sufficient distance to heat sources.
• Make sure that no curtains or other objects interfere with the air flow.
• Make sure that the air inlet and outlet are not obstructed.

Connecting the power cable

• Insert the mains plug into a properly fused mains socket.
