5.0 Maintenance and Cleaning

5.1 Filter Unit - Maintenance and Safety
The Metcal Fume Extraction System is designed with low maintenance in
mind. The housing is ESD safe plastic. Here are a few tips to keep your
system running in top shape:
To clean, use a light wipe with a gentle cleaner to prevent build up of
particulate and flux residue (be sure unit is turned off while cleaning).
Do not block the exhaust outlets; this will cause the operating temperature of
the system to rise, potential damaging the unit, and drop in performance.
Do not defeat the filter interlock switch. Running the system without a filter
will allow particulate and flux residue to adhere to the blower and decrease the life of
the system and increase noise.
Do not lift system while operating
Be sure to handle filters with care.
5.2 Filter Replacement Timing
Model BVX-201
When fumes are filtered inside the unit, the particulates captured will start
clogging the filter over time. The coarse particles are collected in the pre-filter
while fine particles will be collected in the HEPA filter. The clogging will result
in a reduction of the airflow, which may reduce the amount of fumes extracted
from the work area. This condition may not necessarily require filter
replacement. One step is to move the optional extraction arms closer to
application if possible. If the fumes are not extracted any longer to previous
satisfaction level, filter replacement is required.
Initially replace the pre-filter only. If this step does not sufficiently improve the
airflow, then replace the main filter (HEPA/Carbon).
Warning!
Do not attempt to clean filters. Attempted cleaning can
damage filters and cause potential risk to health and equipment.
Notice:
Metcal recommends replacement of filters annually as a minimum.
Use only original Metcal replacement filters.
