1 Foreword
This installation and maintenance manual
serves to help you become familiar with the
IQORON and its intended use.
This installation and maintenance manual
contains important information on operating
the components safely, properly and
economically. Observation of the manual
helps avoid potential risks, reduce repair
costs and downtimes as well as improve
machine reliability and increase its service
life.
The manual must be available to every
person charged with working on the filter.
Where necessary, this manual must be
supplemented by instructions containing
existing national laws on accident prevention
and environmental protection (particularly in
respect of disposing of disassembled parts).
We reserve the right to make technical
modifications to the filter and/or alter the
content of this installation and maintenance
manual without notification.
Information for the operator:
The operator is responsible for the provision
of working equipment complying with basic
health and safety requirements in accordance
with the Ordinance on Industrial Safety and
Health. This also includes deploying the work
equipment such that it is only used within the
scope of its intended use. The operator can
define individual maintenance and service
plans and intervals in addition to those
stipulated in the installation and maintenance
manual.
2 Scope of Delivery
The delivery contains the 3-piece air filter
housing with main filter element and dust
discharge valve. The filter is delivered fully
assembled.
The maintenance indicator and secondary
filter element are optionally available and,

component part of the delivery.
Compare the part number on the delivery with
that in our catalogue. Order the optional
parts, if necessary.
3 Safety
3.1 Warning labels and symbols
This symbol appears in all the
sections of the manual in which the
information provided must be strictly
observed to prevent damage or
destruction of system parts.
This symbol appears in all the
sections of the manual in which the
information provided must be
carefully observed to ensure
trouble-free, economic operation.
3.2 Intended use
The IQORON has been constructed
according to state-of-the-art technology and
accepted safety-related regulations. However,
the functional safety of connected equipment
can be at risk when:
the IQORON is used improperly,
the operating conditions have changed,
reconstructions have been made without
prior consultation with the manufacturer,
the necessary maintenance and repair work
has been neglected.
The IQORON may only be used when it is in
a technically safe working condition and for its
intended use, taking the relevant technical
design, safety and risk aspects into account
and observing the information in the
installation and maintenance manual!
Investigate faults (or have them investigated)
immediately, particularly those which could
impair safety!
The IQORON has been exclusively designed
for the mechanical filtration of air. An other
use above or beyond this, such as filtering
aggressive, combustible and/or explosive
materials, is considered unintended use.
The manufacturer/supplier is not considered
liable for damage resulting from unintended
use.
Intended use also includes observing the
information in the installation and
maintenance manual and meeting all the
inspection and maintenance conditions.
3.3 Operating safety
The IQORON may only be serviced and
operated by appropriately trained, authorized
personnel.
The operator is obliged to inspect the
IQORON once a week for visible signs of
damage and defects. Any changes (including
those in the operating behaviour) which could
affect functional safety must be reported
immediately.
All labels and identifications on the IQORON
must be kept in legible condition.
4 Function Description
The IQORON is a single-stage dry air filter
intended to clean the intake air of air
aspirating machines of all types
(e.g. engines, compressors, fans).
The air drawn in initially flows through the
cyclone block (Pos. 3). The cyclone cells filter
out 95% of the particulate matter. This prefiltered particulate matter must be drawn off,
e.g. by an ejector, at the dust discharge
connection (Pos. 5). This pre-filtering process
(filter stage 1) makes the IQORON
particularly suitable for use in applications
which involve large amounts of dust.
The cleaned air then flows through the main
filter element (2nd filter stage Pos. 2) and
downstream secondary element (option, Pos.
10) to the clean air connection (Pos. 8). The
filter elements form a seal when assembled
due to their shape. This shaping has the
following advantages:
minimal assembly and disassembly forces,
defined contact forces for the seals,

high level of protection against penetration
by dust.
In addition to the clean air connection (Pos.
8), there is also an adapter (M10x1, Pos. 7) to
connect a maintenance indicator or switch.
The maintenance indicator/switch indicates
when the vacuum produced by the suction
has exceeded a prescribed value (e.g. +50
mbar). This means that the prescribed
maximum filter flow resistance has been
exceeded and the filter must be serviced.
The secondary element (Pos.10) protects the
engine from penetration by dust during
maintenance and, to a certain extent, during
operation with a main filter element damaged
through improper handling. A secondary
element can be retrofitted on the IQORON at
any time.
Operation with only a secondary
element is not permitted and can
lead to engine damage!
