2 Preface Congratulations on purchasing the filter system from TEKA.

Our engineers ensure that our filter systems reflect the state of the art through continuous devel-opment. Nevertheless, misuse or misconduct can endanger your safety. Please observe the following for a successful use of the filter system:

Please read these instructions before operating the system, and observe the safety pre-cautions to avoid injury!

Improper use of the equipment can cause serious injury or death!

Store this manual in a safe place! These instructions are to be regarded as a compo-nent of the product!

Adhere to all product notes!

Observe the local regulations in force at the installation site!

Observe the manufacturer’s instructions. Contact the manufacturer in case of any un-certainty. Tel.: +49 28 63 - 92 82 - 0 Fax: +49 28 63 - 92 82 - 72

We thank you for your confidence in us and wish you every success.

3 Intended use

The filter unit is mainly used for the local extraction of dusts and fumes. To this end, the unit can be equipped with a flexible suction arm or another extraction device suitable for the individual applica-tion.

AirToo may only be used indoors and has to be supervised during operation!

Improper use of the equipment can lead to damage to individual parts and endan-ger life and limb! The system must not be used for the extraction of oil containing welding smoke, explo-sive dusts and gases, hybrid mixtures, burning or glowing substances, gases, water, etc. The system must also not be operated in explosive zones. Please contact the manufacturer in case of doubt!

The polluted air is taken in by the suction hood and enters into the filter unit in passing by the suc-tion arm. In the filter unit, the gross dust particles are separated in the gross filter (pos. 10), while the finer dusts are separated in the prefilter (pos. 11). The activated carbon filter (pos. 12) absorbs disturbing odours. The consecutive main filter (pos. 13) separates the fine dust particles with a separation efficiency of more than 99%. The cleaned air is taken in by the fan and returned to the working space via the outlet grid at the back of the unit.

Attention: As soon as the resistance of the filter, due to the separated dust particles and smoke, has achieved a maximum value, the integrated monitoring electronics triggers off the alarm of the signal horn (pos. 3) indicating that the filters must be renewed.

4 Safety instructions

The filter system is constructed according to the state of the art and the recognised safety regula-tions. Nevertheless, during use threats to life and limb of the user or other persons may arise. The impairment of the machine or other property are also possible. Read and observe the following safety precautions before using the product.

The work on the system and on electrical voltage components represent consid-erable danger to life and limb in the event of improper handling. 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.

Do not work on live electrical components and elements (electric motors , cabi-nets , etc.) if you are not sure that these are indeed disconnected. Electric shock represents a danger to life. If necessary, disconnect the device from the mains.

Do not use the system if parts of the system are faulty , missing or damaged. Do not operate the system without filter elements. A defective condition of the sys-tem could represent hazards to health. Check the orderly condition of the system before switching on. Please refer to the in-formation in this manual. Protect the wiring plug from heat, moisture , oil and sharp edges. Dispose of the filter elements according to the national statutory provisions.

5 Transport

Overturning or not permanently fixed equipment may represent a danger to life and limb. The system must be secured against overturning and sliding during the storage and transport. Do not stand under or next to the load when lifting and lowering. Lift trucks or forklift trucks or transport cranes must have sufficient minimum loading.

BA_AirToo_161118_GB.doc 6 18.11.2016

6 Commissioning

The filter unit is delivered completely assembled. The extraction element (suction arm or suction hose) is separately packed. The extraction element must be connected to the device before com-missioning.

6.1 Connecting the extraction elements

If you use a suction arm, fix it with the help of the flange ring (pos. 19), the screws (pos. 17) and the lock washers (pos. 18) to the upper connection of the housing.

Attention: Take care that the flange must be pivotal!

6.2 Connecting the device

• Connect the filter unit to the mains supply.(Observe the indications on the name plate!)

7 Explanation of the control elements

Pos.1 The main switch switches the filter unit on or off.

Pos.2 The operating hours meter counts the operating hours as soon as the main switch is pushed.

Pos.3 The signal horn indicates if the suction performance is sufficient. If it is triggered off, the fil-ters must be replaced.

BA_AirToo_161118_GB.doc 7 18.11.2016

8 Maintenance

The filtration of the dust particles increases the saturation degree of the filter cartridge and reduces the extraction performance. The saturation degree of the filter cartridge is monitored electronically. In order to maintain the ex-traction performance of the device, the filters must be replaced if the signal horn (pos.3) is triggered off. The mechanical filter element makes sure that more than 99 % of the extracted pollutants remain in the filter. This also applies if the filter element is completely or partly saturated. Nevertheless, the increasing saturation of the filer reduces the extraction performance of the filter unit. Gross filter, prefilter and activated carbon filter must be replaced regularly. However, they should be renewed at the latest when replacing the main filter. The lifetime of the filter elements heavily depends on the individual conditions of application. There-fore, it cannot be defined in advance.

Attention: The operation of the filter device must be interrupted when the filters are replaced. Only replace and dispose of the filters in sufficiently ventilated area and in wearing an appropriate respirator mask! We recommend a respiration half mask according to DIN EN 141/143 protection level P3. Also we recommend to use suitable safety gloves. Dispose of the filter according to the legal regulations! Contaminated filter elements must be packed into a suitable container (e.x. PE-bag), the bags are optionally available (see the spare part list). We recommend to take in time the PE-bags into your stock. If the filter is beaten, washed or blown out manually, the filter medium may be destroyed. The pollu-tants penetrate the ambient air.

BA_AirToo_161118_GB.doc 8 18.11.2016

The correct fitting of the filter elements corresponds to the following order:

8.1 Replacing the gross filter

• Disconnect the filter unit from the mains supply.

• Release the snap fastener (pos.7) land open the maintenance flap.

• Withdraw the gross filter that is inserted in the main filter. Lift up and pull forward the main fil-ter if necessary.

• Insert the new gross filter.

Attention: Only use filter elements by TEKA!

• Put the main filter back into the device and position it correctly.

• Fold down the maintenance flap (pos.6) carefully. When doing this, make sure that the retainer (pos. 8) is placed exactly on the wood frame of the main filter (pos. 13) and that it moves to the back into the filter unit if the maintenance flap is closed further.

• When the maintenance flap is completely closed, close it with the help of the snap fastener.

• Reconnect the filter unit to the mains supply.

8.5 Recommended changing intervals of the filter elements

After a certain amount of operating hours, the filter elements must be replaced. The amount de-pends on the produced amount of dust or gas. Nevertheless, the filters must be replaced if the sig-nal horn (pos. 3) is triggered off. We recommend the following changing intervals:

Filter element Recommended operating

period

Gross filter 50 operating hours

Prefilter 100 operating hours

Activated carbon filter 100 operating hours

Main filter 200 operating hours
