6 INSTALLATION

INSTALLING OR PLACING ANY TYPE OF FILTERING DEVICE WILL

RESTRICT THE VOLUME OF INTAKE AIR, THEREBY SUBJECTING

THE POWER SOURCE INTERNAL COMPONENTS TO

OVERHEATING. THE WARRANTY IS VOID IF ANY TYPE OF FILTER

DEVICE IS USED.

6.1 General

Proper installation is important for satisfactory and trouble-free operation of the

ESP-101 cutting package. It is suggested that each step in this section be studied

carefully and followed closely.

6.2 Equipment required

A source of clean, dry, oil-free air that supplies 500 cfh (236 l/m) at 90 psig (6.2 bars)

is required for the cutting operation. The air supply should not exceed 150 psig (10.3

bars) (the maximum inlet pressure rating of the air filter-regulator supplied with the

package).

POSITION THE POWER SOURCE AT LEAST 10 FEED (3 METERS)

FROM THE CUTTING AREA. SPARKS AND HOT SLAG VFROM THE

CUTTING OPERATION CAN DAMAGE THE UNIT.

6.3 Placement and location

After selecting an installation site, place the ESP-101 in the desired location.

The unit may be lifted by either an overhead crane or forklift truck. If using

forklift truck, be sure that the lift forks are long enough to extend completely

under the base. If using straps, use two separate straps as shown in the

illustration.

Adequate ventilation is necessary to provide proper cooling of the

ESP-101. The amount of dirt, dust, and excessive heat to which the

equipment is exposed, should be minimized. There should be at least

one foot of clearance between the ESP-101 power source and wall or

any other obstruction to allow freedom of air movement through the

power source.

6.4 Inspection

1. Remove the shipping container and all packing material and inspect for evidence

of concealed damage which may not have been apparent upon receipt of the

ESP-101.

Notify the carrier of any defects or damage at once.

2. Check container for any loose parts prior to disposing of shipping materials.

3. Check air louvers and any other openings to ensure that any obstruction is

removed.
