How To

T-VAC - HT005 - Clean the vacuum filters jet wash Operation

Ensure the T-VAC is isolated prior to starting work
Open the three quick Release clamps to the filtration access doors (image 1)
Open Filter door and rest against rubber stop (image 2)
Remove the six nuts and washers which secure the filter securing plate. Keep these in a safe place for re-use (image 4)
Lift out the filter plate (image 6) shows it removed
Carefully remove each filter element. (image 5 and 7)
Jet wash filters down with warm soapy water. Do not place the nozzle to close to the filter element or damage could occur. (image 8)
Inspect for damage, holes & wear. Replace if damaged which would allow material to by-pass.
For best results, allow the filters to dry naturally.
Whist the filters are drying, use the HP water to clean the filtration compartment. Open the debris door to allow excess debris and water out.
Check and clean the chamber between the filters and debris area (image 10). It may be easier to remove the top inspection hatch or inlet (image 9)
Relocate the filters back in size order. (image 1 shows order)
Replace the filter securing plate and the six washers and nuts (image 3)
Final check – visually inspect inside each filter ensuring no tools or bolts have been left. Loose debris, this side of the filters can cause fatal damage to turbines.
Close the Filter lid door and secure. Repeat this process on the opposite filter chamber.

T-VAC - HT016 - How do you connect the AIR-EX AIR-EX

Correct P.P.E must be worn at all times when using the AIR-EX
The compressor should be turned off and depressurised before connecting the hose
Allways check the AIR-EX for damage and that the nozzles are tight
Check the hose is free from rips,tears and that the rubbers are intact on the brass claw fittings
Make sure the whipchecks are in good condition free from rust
Attach one end of the whipcheck over the claw coupling on the hose
attach the other end of the whipcheck over the claw coupling of the compressor
To connect push the hose fitting in to the compressor one and turn clockwise, when done correctly this will lock (video 1)
Using a whipcheck fit one side over the AIR-EX and the other over the hose, again connect the fittings by pushing them together and rotating clockwise (video2)
Turn on the compressor and klet it warm up (use preheat if required)
Open up the isolator valve (press power up button model dependant) and listen for any leaks (Turn of and isolate the compressor if there is and rectify the problem)
Have a feel around the connections and AIR-EX to check for leaks
Using a debris net squirt pull the trigger to check the AIR-EX is functioning correctly
