2.2 Functionality of the system

The filter unit serves to suck off and filter polluted air (according to the intended use). First of all, the
coarse particles are separated at the prefilter mat in the filter section of the unit. The subsequent particle
filter cleans even fine smokes and dusts. An automatic filter monitoring indicates when a cleaning or a
replacement of the filters is necessary. The purified air is led back into the working room.

2.3 Intended use

The filter unit is intended for extraction and filtration of dusts and fumes that result from thermal joining
and cutting of metals. The filter unit is amongst others suitable for separating welding smokes of
unalloyed and alloyed steels as well as of high-alloy chromium-nickel steels and therefore meets the
highest welding fume separation category “W3” according to DIN EN ISO 15012-1.

WARNING

Improper use can damage parts and be a danger to life and limb!

The device must not be used for the extraction of oil-laden welding fume, explosive dust and
gases, hybrid mixtures, glowing or burning substances, gases, water, etc. The device must
not be operated in explosive zones.

WARNING

Dangers arising from improper use / unauthorised operations.

The operator must ensure that their authorised personnel are familiar with all the safety
indications in this manual in advance. The operator is responsible for ensuring that all work
is carried out by authorised and qualified personnel. We therefore recommend using the
training protocol on the last page for that purpose (see chapter “Training protocol”).
Laymen are allowed to operate the device after having received the necessary instructions.
But they are not allowed to carry out any installation, repair or maintenance work.

Dangers arising from fire.
In case of fire, if possible, switch the unit immediately off or disconnect it from the power
supply. Fire extinguishing measures which the operator is obliged to determine beforehand
must be initiated immediately.

WARNING

Dangers arising from electricity.

The operator must ensure that electrical plants and equipment are only built, modified and
maintained by a qualified electrician or under the direction and supervision of a qualified
electrician. Do not work on components if you are not sure that these are disconnected. If
necessary, disconnect the device from the electric power supply and secure it against
unauthorized restarting.
