Cleaning
WARNING:
DO NOT USE gasoline or other petroleum products to clean the machine. They have low flash points and can explode or cause fire.
CAUTION: When using cleaning solvents work in a well-ventilated area. Many cleaning solvents are toxic if inhaled.
Your machine may be shipped with a rustproof waxy coating and/or grease on the exposed unpainted metal surfaces. Fully and completely remove this protective coating using a degreaser or solvent cleaner. Moving items will need to be moved along their travel path to allow for cleaning the entire surface. For a more thorough cleaning, some parts will occasionally have to be removed. DO NOT USE acetone or brake cleaner as they may damage painted surfaces.
Follow manufacturer’s label instructions when using any type of cleaning product. After cleaning, wipe unpainted metal surfaces with a light coating of quality oil or grease for protection.
Important: This waxy coating is NOT a lubricant and will cause the machine to stick and lose performance as the coating continues to dry.

INSTALLATION

IMPORTANT:
Consider the following when looking for a suitable location to place the machine:

  • This unit is specifically designed to circulate and filter non-metallic dust, which is generated throughout the work area.
  • Overall weight of the machine.
  • Space needed for clear air flow and service access.
  • Clearance from walls and other obstacles.
  • Maintain an adequate working area around the machine for safety.
  • Have the work area well illuminated with proper lighting.

WARNING: The mounts for this machine must be anchored to the building structure, which will support a minimum of 2 times the weight of the machine. Never mount to surfaces such as dry wall or false ceiling grids, etc.

  • CEILIING: This tool distributes a large amount of weight over a small area. Make certain that the ceiling and overhead support is capable of supporting a minimum of 2 times the weight of the machine.
  • If placing the air filtration unit on a stand, verify that the machine is secured to the stand and that the stand cannot tip over.
  • WORKING CLEARANCES: Take into consideration space around this machine to provide the air flow needed to allow for proper filtration. This unit will work best if it is located away from corners, and heating/cooling vents.
  • POWER SUPPLY PLACEMENT: The power supply should be located close enough to the machine so that the power cord is not in an area where it would cause a tripping hazard. Be sure to observe all electrical codes if installing new circuits and/or outlets.

Placement and Positioning
Placement and Positioning planning is a key step to maximize the effectiveness of the air filter.
Because each installation will be different, having different size, shape and obstructions, each placement and positioning consideration will be different.
Air flow patterners must be thought out with consideration for all obstructions to the air flow path. Think of air circulation in terms of the circular motion of the air before and after the air filter. The air exiting the filter is exhausted at a higher velocity than the air entering. Thus, exhaust air being vented inside a building will have an effect on the pattern of air circulation.
Air circulation patterns will vary depending upon which air flow speed is used and your specific shop setup.
In general, good air filter placement promotes a circular / recirculating air flow pattern.
An example of poor air circulation, is where the air filter is placed too close to obstructions. This situation will cause the velocity and flow of the air to be lost and circulation and thus filtration will be diminished. Common placement and positioning issues are placing the inlet toward the center of a room with the outlet toward the wall or corner with less than 3 -4 feet (.9 – 1.2m) of clearance. This will create a turbulence on the outlet side of the filter greatly reducing it efficiency.

Placement and Position considerations:

  • Examine the shop layout and try to determine the best location to hang the air filter. Air flow that is obstructed will cause poor air flow, producing unsatisfactory results. There must be a clearance of at least 3ft (.9m) from any obstructions in front and back of the unit.
  • Try to place the air filter in near high dust producers or near areas where the dust is created.
  • Do not place the hanging air filter where overhead items such as doors, cranes, etc. may impede the air flow, or where the air filter may impede the other device operation of movement.
  • Consider the air flow of other air controlling devices such as HVAC and ceiling fans. Try to have the air filter work with the air flow of these devices.
  • Plan for placement to allow the air filter to be operated, serviced, cleaned, and maintained.
  • Plan for and consider the proximity to the power source. Consider the air flow of other air controlling devices such as HVAC and ceiling fans. Try to have the air filter work with the air flow of these devices.
  • Ability of the remote to operate the air filtration unit.

It is very important that the hanging air filter be supported properly. Please follow these guidelines when planning where to mount the unit:

  • ONLY hang the air filter from the mounting brackets attach to the top of the unit.
  • Make sure that an electrical outlet with a properly grounded receptacle is available at the location you choose. DO NOT allow the power cord to become an interference or entanglement to this or other machines or people.
  • The hanging air filter must be supported by structurally solid components such as joists which must be capable of supporting a minimum of 2 times the weight of the unit. DO NOT attach the hanging air filter to items such as but not limited to sheet rock, press board or paneling. These materials cannot support the filter, and it will fall.
  • DO NOT use anchors such as are commonly used for mounting items to sheet rock. These anchors cannot support the weight of the filter long term and it may fall.
  • Hang the air filtration unit so that the bottom is 8 – 10ft (2.4 – 3m) above the floor. This typically provides the best operation.
  • Avoid hanging the filter so low and / or in a location that will cause / allow personnel to hit their head on the hanging air filter. Make sure there is enough clearance between the unit and the ground, especially important in low ceiling height locations. If possible, position the air filter in an area that has little foot traffic but still offers easy access to the switch and filters.

Filtering Performance

When used together with an efficient dust collection system, this air filter removes most fine particles up to 1 micron from the air.
At full speed, this air filter is capable of recirculating the air in a 30′ x 30′ x 10′ room approximately 10 times an hour. If the recirculation calculation falls below 5 times per hour it is recommended to have either a larger air filtration unit or a second air filtration unit. Often, a second air filtration unit is the better answer as it will generally provide the opportunity for placement and positioning that will be complimentary to the first air filtration unit. In short, rooms with a larger volume may require two or more air filters to achieve proper filtering.
To calculate the recirculating rate for your shop space:

  1. Calculate the volume of air in your shop by multiplying the length x width x height of the room. Then, divide the volume by the speed (CFM) you have chosen to operate the air filter.
    This will give you how many minutes it takes to recirculate the air in the room.
    Example: For a room that measures 30′ x 30′ x 10′ with this air filter running at 1600CFM, hi speed, the following calculation indicates the number of minutes to recirculate the air in the room.

  2. Once the first calculation is complete to determine the minutes to recirculate the air, the next calculation may be completed by dividing 60 minutes by the circulating time. This will give you how many times an hour the air in the room is recirculated

Important: These calculations provide results based upon best case conditions.
Specific results and actual performance will vary based upon each individual installation, obstructions, motor speed, cleanliness of the filters etc.

ASSEMBLY AND SET UP

WARNING: For your own safety, DO NOT connect the machine to the power source until the machine is completely assembled and you read and understand the entire instruction manual.

  1. To assemble, first place the hanger (NO.3) to cabinet (NO.4) and tighten up. See FIG.1BAILEIGH AFS-1600 Air Filtration System - fig 1

  2. Installed the Inn-Bag Filter (NO.2) into the cabinet (NO.4). See FIG.2

  3. Installed the Outer Pre-Filter (NO.1) into thecabinet (NO.4). See FIG.3 IMPORTANT: Never operate the air filtration blower without the proper filters installed.
    Two Person Lift. Use an assistant or lifting devise to support the weight of the air filtration unit.

  4. Following the Installation guidelines and the placement and positioning guidelines, install mounting hardware (customer supplied) into/onto the support structure of the building.

  5. Verify that the mounting is into/onto solid components such as joists which are capable of supporting a minimum of 2 times the weight of the unit. DO NOT attach the hanging air filter to items such as but not limited to sheet rock, press board or paneling. These materials cannot support the filter, and it will fall.

ELECTRICAL

CAUTION: HAVE ELECTRICAL UTILITIES CONNECTED TO MACHINE BY A CERTIFIED ELECTRICIAN!
Check if the available power supply is the same as listed on the machine nameplate.
WARNING: Make sure the grounding wire (green) is properly connected to avoid electric shock. DO NOT switch the position of the green grounding wire if any electrical plug wires are switched during hookup.

Power Specifications
Your tool is wired for 120 volts, 60Hz alternating current. Before connecting the tool to the power source, make sure the machine is cut off from power source.
Before switching on the power, you must check the voltage and frequency of the power to see ifthey meet with the requirement, the allowed range for the voltage is ±5%, and for the frequency is ±1%.

Considerations

  • Observe local electrical codes when connecting the machine.
  • The circuit should be protected with a time delay fuse or circuit breaker with a amperage rating slightly higher than the full load current of machine.
  • A separate electrical circuit should be used for your tools. Before connecting the motor to the power line, make sure the switch is in the “OFF” position and be sure that the electric current is of the same characteristics as indicated on the tool.
  • All line connections should make good contact. Running on low voltage will damage the motor.
  • In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This tool is equipped with an electric cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The  plug must be plugged into a matching outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

WARNING: In all cases, make certain the receptacle in question is properly grounded. If you are not sure, have a qualified electrician check thereceptacle.

  • Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in risk of electric shock. The conductor with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is the equipment-grounding conductor. If repair or replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment-grounding conductor to a live terminal.
  • Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether the tool is properly grounded.
  • Repair or replace damaged or worn cord immediately.

Extension Cord Safety
Extension cord should be in good condition and meet the minimum wire gauge requirements listed below:
