1.0 Introduction
The Amada dust collector is used for the
collection of airborne dust and particulate.
Whether in answer to the problem of air
pollution, or as part of a manufacturing process,
this collector provides highly efficient,
continuous, on-line dust collection.
The Ultra-Web II FR filter cartridges are the
heart of the Amada dust collector. These filter
cartridges help ensure that only clean air is
returned to the plant environment.
1.1 Operational Explanation
(See Figure 2)
1.1.1 Normal Operation
During normal operation, contaminated air
enters the ADF4 dust collector through the inlet
and passes down and through the filter
cartridges. Dust is collected on the outside
surface of the filter cartridges. The clean,
filtered air flows through the center of the filter
cartridges into the clean-air plenum, where it
exits through the clean-air outlet.
Technical and field support are always available
from your local Amada representative and
distributors.
Clean-Air Outlet
1.1.2 Filter Cartridge Cleaning
Filter cartridges are cleaned automatically and
sequentially. The result is that only one filter
cartridge will be off-line at any given time.

During the filter cartridge cleaning purge, the
solid-state timer energizes a solenoid valve,
causing the corresponding diaphragm valve to
send a pulse of compressed air through the filter
cartridge from the inside outward, removing the
collected contaminants from the outside surface
of the filter cartridge. The dust falls into the
hopper and then into the dust storage container.
2.0 Quick Start
(See Figure 1)
This section provides the basic steps to be
completed before operation and is for reference
only. Follow all guidelines in Section 3.0,
Installation.
1. Connect 208-V, 3-Phase power.
2. Check that fan rotation is clockwise.
3. Connect compressed air with pressure
regulator and filter.
4. Connect duct to unit.
5. Ready to start up.
3.0 Installation
(See Figure 1)
3.1 Inspection
The unit is normally shipped by truck and
should be checked for any damage that may
have occurred en route. Any damage should be
noted and the carrier notified immediately.
3.3 Preinstallation
(See Figure 1)
The Amada dust collector is usually mounted on
a reinforced concrete foundation; however, roof
mounting is also possible. When calculating for
foundation or roof mounting, the weight of the
dust collector plus the material being collected
and all auxiliary equipment must be considered
together with wind, seismic, and other live loads.
See the Specification Control Drawing for the
dust collector weight.
CAUTION
Location must be free of obstructions, such
as utility lines or roof overhang. See
Specification Control Drawing. A crane
must be used to position the collector.
To avoid delay, install foundation in the proper
location. Pay particular attention to the anchor
bolt size and location. The collector should be
located with consideration for emptying the
hopper storage area, shortest runs of inlet and
outlet ductwork, electrical and compressed air
connections, and convenience of maintenance. In
case of hazardous dust collection, consult with
local authorities for the proper location of the
dust collector.

3.4 Assembly of Standard Equipment
(See Figure 1)
3.4.1 Delta P Control
CAUTION
NOTE
A crane or forklift is recommended for
unloading, assembly, and installation of
the dust collector.
CAUTION
• Connect the lifting sling to the four (4)
cabinet lifting lugs.
• Use clevice pins, not hooks, on the
lifting sling.
• Do not lean unit on legs.
Remove all crating and strapping from the unit.
Remove all miscellaneous parts such as bolts,
nuts, or loose components before lifting the unit
off of the truck. Check the parts received
against the packing slips. If there are parts
missing, the carrier and your local Amada
Representative should be notified immediately.
• All electrical work must be performed
by a qualified electrician according to
all applicable national and local codes.
• Turn electrical power OFF during
installation.
• Do not apply in classified hazardous
atmospheres without an appropriatelyrated enclosure.
NOTE
• Do not mount controls in high-vibration
areas without shock mounts.
• Do not mount controls in corrosive
atmospheres without an appropriate
enclosure.
• Do not operate with enclosure open.

1. Using the wiring diagram provided with the
control, wire the alarm circuit labeled
AUXILIARY, if desired. When the pressure
drop reaches the preset alarm value, the
relay will actuate and the LED light
ALARM, on the user interface, will
illuminate. The relay can be used to actuate
visual/audible alarms (by others).
3. Apply power to the Delta P Control and
timer. Adjust the setpoints for the high- and
low-pressure drop. These are the pressure
drop setpoints that start and stop the
cleaning process, and the alarm setpoint.
NOTE
2. Check the tubing to the high and low
pressure ports on the control enclosure. The
high-pressure connection goes to the dirtyair, or filter side of the collector. The lowpressure connection goes to the clean-air
side of the collector.
Do not attempt to adjust the ON or OFF
time. These values are factory set for
maximum performance of pulsing system
and minimum compressed-air use.

Optional Settings
(See Figure 4)
1. Change from English to metric units
Locate the jumper block labeled J1, just
above the PROG DISABLE terminals at the
bottom edge of the printed circuit board.
Remove the jumper from the center and left
pins (2 and 3), and reinstall on the center
and right pins (1 and 2).
2. Disabling the setpoint adjustments
To restrict the ability to change the
setpoints, install a jumper wire across the
PROG DISABLE terminals on Terminal
Block 2 (TB2). This will allow the operator
to press the appropriate set keys to
determine the current settings, but will not
allow any changes until the jumper wire is
removed. Installing a key-operated normally
closed switch through the door of the
enclosure that interrupts the jumper wire,
will provide temporary access to the setting
function without opening the control
enclosure.
3. External Alarm reset
Locate the ARM RESET (TB2) terminal
block in the lower right quadrant of the
printed board. Wire this terminal block to a
key-operated normally open switch. Closing
the switch will turn off the alarm. If the
alarm conditions still exist, the alarm relay
will latch on again in 10 seconds.

4. Disable the alarm
Locate the MODE (J5) jumper block in the
lower right quadrant of the printed circuit
board. Remove the jumper from the alarm
position. Disabling the alarm relay reduces
the alarm function to lighting the LED on
the user interface.
1. Reinstalling the jumper in the SLAVE
position—upper and middle pins—causes
the AUXILIARY relay to operate in
parallel to the HI/LO CONTROL relay.
2. If the jumper is not installed in either
position, the AUXILIARY relay does not
function.
5. Analog Output
Locate the SENSOR (TB4) terminal block in
the upper left quadrant of the printed circuit
board. This connector provides a 1 to 5
VDC output proportional to the 0 to
maximum span of the pressure sensor,
10K ohm load minimum.
3.5 Electrical Operation
Each dust collector comes equipped with 115VAC solenoid valves that control the pulse
cleaning valves, which clean the filter
cartridges.
Make the proper electrical and pneumatic
connections to the collector and motor starter
per the diagrams and instructions supplied with
the control panel.
Verify proper blower rotation by pushing the
start-stop button on and off very quickly. The
rotation should be clockwise when looking
down at the top of the motor. Also reference the
rotation sticker on the fan housing. Proper fan
rotation is extremely important.

3.6 Compressed Air Supply Installation
(See Figure 1)
4.0 Prestart-Up Check
(See Figure 1)
NOTE
• The compressed-air supply must be
both oil and moisture free.
Contamination in the compressed-air
used to clean filter cartridges will result
in poor cleaning or cleaning valve
failure and poor collector performance.
• Purge compressed-air lines to remove
debris before connecting to the
compressed-air manifold on the unit.
CAUTION
Turn compressed-air supply OFF and bleed
supply lines before performing service work.
CAUTION
Check that the blower-fan exhaust is free
of debris before starting.
On hoppers with drum arrangements, make sure
that all the connections are airtight.
NOTE
Check that the hopper discharge is sealed
and not open to the atmosphere. Too
much airflow to the blower fan will cause
electrical failure.
1. Remove the plastic pipe plug from the end of
the unit's compressed-air manifold and
connect the compressed-air supply line.
2. The compressed-air supply line should be
installed with a safety exhaust shutoff valve,
a bleed-type regulator with a gauge adjusted
to 90-psi, and a coalescing filter with an
automatic drain, all supplied by others. Use
pipe sealant on all compressed-air
connections and locate components for
convenient service.
3. Be sure that all compressed-air components
are adequately sized to meet the maximum
system requirements of 1.1 scfm per pulse at
90- psi supply pressure.
