Humidity in the surrounding air:
• The higher the humidity, the higher the moisture content in the surrounding air. This not only
affects the compressed air quality on the internal surface of the equipment but on the dry ice
itself.
• Humidity (moisture in the air) that seeps into the trough will settle on the dry ice. The result is
that the moisture freezes on the dry ice pellets or blocks causing them to stick together. A sign
of this is dry ice that is not free flowing but rather presents itself as one or more large masses.
NOTE – Do not use a foreign object such as a stick or metal rod to break up the ice. Contact
Cold Jet’s customer service department.
• It is important to keep the trough lid closed as much as possible. Leaving it open on a regular
basis allows the humidity to settle on the dry ice.
Ensure that the power cord, air supply hose, blast hose, and applicator control cable are properly
connected and that all safety precautions are understood.
Never blast the display screen area of the machine with dry ice as this
will cause permanent damage to the screen.
Use caution when handling the applicator to prevent accidental
discharge.
