How to..
Unpack Unit
- Inspect crated skid used for shipping for any possible damage.
Assemble Unit
- Bolt the four legs on the cyclone assembly.
- Install Cabinet Assembly and Cyclone Assembly 12” apart:
- Join the Cabinet and Cyclone using flex hose.
- Seal the interface between the flexible hose and the metal conduit using hose clamps and silicone.
- Use the female connector and male plug to connect the Dust Collector Cyclone Motor to the Control Panel.
Compressed Air Installation
- Use dry compressed air only. (Unit requires a minimum of 80 CFM at 90 PSI to operate correctly.)
- Connect compressed air (90 PSI) to the ½” inlet fitting located on the back of the unit.
- For safety purposes install a cut-off valve on the line.
- If the shop pressure is above 100 PSI, use a regulator to reduce supply air.
- A 1/2” NPT supply is required.
Barrel Installation
The Cyclone won’t operate correctly unless the Cyclone and Barrel connection is fully sealed.
- Slide barrel under cyclone cone.
- Apply liberal amounts of silicone sealant to the barrel inlet collar.
- Slide the flexible hose over the collar.
- Fasten the flexible hose to the collar using hose clamp.
- Check the pneumatic connections on the back of the unit.
- Connect the air hose and make sure that the air fittings don’t leak air.
- Ensure nothing is jammed up against the mechanism.
- Make sure that the Cyclone motor is plugged into the Control Box.
- Measure the height of filter in inches.
- Correct spacing is required.
- If the unit won’t function and the screen indicates “filter not sealed”, refrain from using the maintenance switch. This can cause bypass and damage internal components (not covered under warranty).
- Release both latches to open the top of the Cabinet.
- Install required spacers (refer to filter spacer chart in manual).
- Load filter.
- Close and secure the latches.
Use for the Maintenance Switch
The maintenance switch is used to inspect the function of the cleaning mechanism.
- Before use remove the compressed air.
- Activate the cleaning cycle.
- Inspect for any restrictions of movement.
- Inspect for dust.
- Apply an oil base lubricate alone to the acme rod to prevent build up.
Troubleshooting
- Confirm that you are supplying the correct voltage into the system.
- Confirm all fuses are functional.
- If your GFCM unit does not turn on, it is possible that the unit is in reverse phasing. An electrician is required to reposition phase lines.
- Check that the motor plug in is secured properly. The plug needs to be clicked in for the unit to function correctly.
- Confirm the correct rotation according to the arrows on the motor.
- If the problem continues, contact Diversitech support for assistance.
- The correct voltage for the unit to function properly is 2.5 AMPS DC Voltage.
- Check the wire connections to confirm that they are properly connected and in the correct position.
- Check the sensor and magnet. To do this, you will need to open the bottom panel to get access to gear motor. Inspect the sensor and magnet.
- If the sensor and magnet are dirty, the unit won’t function properly. You will need to clean them.
- Check to see if the magnet is in the proper location. For the sensor to function correctly, the magnet must be in place.
- If the problem continues, contact Diversitech support for assistance.
- Check the main unit. If it has begun to show signs of accumulation, air will be restricted thru the cyclone system and the unit won’t function properly.
- Remove the safety filter and inspect for air restriction.
- Remove the pleated filter on the exterior unit. Change filter if dirty.
- If the problem continues, contact Diversitech support for assistance.
