BNP PRESSURE BLAST CONVERSION KIT Page 6
2.8 Connect Urethane Control Tubing
2.8.1 Uncoil the 1/8" urethane control tubing. The end
of each tubing is numbered 1, 2 or 3. Connect the tubing
to the adaptor with the corresponding number on the
pressure regulator, piping, and 4-way air valve. Check
the schematic in Figure 4 to confirm the connections.
2.9 Connect Compressed Air Supply Line
2.9.1 Install an isolation valve at the air source to
enable depressurization for service, and connect a 1" ID
or larger air line from the air source to the air filter on the
blast machine. A smaller diameter hose may reduce
blasting efficiency.
If twist-on type air hose couplings are used, they
must be secured by safety pins or wires to prevent
accidental disconnection while under pressure.
Hose disconnection while under pressure could
cause serious injury.
2.10 Ground Cabinet
2.10.1 To prevent static electricity build up, attach an
external grounded wire from an earth ground to the
cabinet.
2.11 Connect Electrical Service
Shorting electrical components could result in
serious electrical shocks, or equipment damage. All
electrical work must be performed by a qualified
electrician, and comply with applicable codes.
2.11.1 Provide service from the users disconnect and
starter, and wire the motor per instruction on the motor
plate.
2.12 Check Motor Rotation
Do not look into the reclaimer exhauster outlet while
the paddle wheel is turning. Injury to the eye or face
could occur from objects being ejected from the
exhauster.
2.12.1 Check the motor rotation by jogging the starter
(momentarily turn switch on and off). This causes the
motor to rotate slowly. Look through the slots in the fan
housing on top of the motor, where rotation of the fan
can easily be observed. The fan should rotate clockwise
when viewed from the fan end of the motor. Proper
rotation is indicated by the arrow on the exhauster
housing.
2.13 Anchor Blast Machine
2.13.1 When all the components are in their permanent
position, remove the temporary supports, and bolt the
blast machine to the floor. Anchor holes are located in
the blast machine leg pads. Anchor through the holes to
secure the machine to the floor.
2.14 Position the foot pedal on the floor at the front of
the cabinet.
3.0 FIELD INSTALLED ACCESSORIES
3.3 Manometer
3.3.1 A constant static pressure balance is necessary
for precise separation, as the reclaimer's efficiency is
accomplished by a centrifugal balance of particle weight
and size. The air balance and static pressure are set by
adjusting the outlet damper. The manometer measures
static pressure. Use the instruction sheet provided with
the manometer, for installation and operation
instructions. The optional manometer kit is listed in
Section 9.1.
4.0 OPERATION
4.1 Media Loading and Unloading
4.1.1 Media Capacity: Media capacity depends on
the reclaimer size. Media capacity of 600 cfm units is
approximately 1.6 cu. ft. Full capacity will be below the
opening of the pop-up valve. Capacity of 900 cfm units is
approximately 2.0 cu. ft. Full capacity will be at the pop-
up valve opening. Overfilling will result in media
carryover to the dust collector and possible blockage in
the conveying hose. The optional storage segment
provides nearly 2 additional cubic feet of media storage,
and raises the overall height by approximately 17 inches.
4.1.2 Media Loading: With the exhauster off, add
clean dry media, by pouring it into the reclaimer hopper
through the reclaimer door. Do not pour media directly
into the cabinet hopper, as overfilling may occur.
Overfilling will result in media carryover to the dust
collector and possible blockage in the conveying hose.
Refill only after all media has been recovered from the
cabinet.
