Location
To avoid overheating, the clearance to any material must be no less than 0,5 m on any side and no less than 1 m above the unit. Make sure that there are no obstacles and no flammable material closer to the unit. The unit must never be covered. Place the unit in a dry place on a flat surface. The enclosure class of the silo is IP 20, it must not be subject to dripping or splashing water. The unit may not be used in environments where there is danger of explosion (EX).
Using the unit
Connect the unit to the mains. Set the thermostat at the desired temperature. The red pilot light is lit whenever the unit is connected to the mains. Pour the welding powder to be stored into the silo from above. The upper level of the powder must not be above the upper end of the air circulation tubes inside the silo. Select the temperature recommended by the manufacturer of the powder. The lid must be slightly ajar when the silo is on. This is achieved by setting the support lever of the lid against the rim of the silo.
Other matters to be considered
When pouring fine powder into and out of the silo, the powder may cause dust. A dust respirator filter should be worn when handling the powder. Extreme care should be exercised when pouring powder from the dryer, as it may be very hot, depending on the temperature chosen, and may cause burns if handled carelessly.
Remove the plug from the wall socket whenever the silo is not in use.
