Site Planning

Site planning is an important step to maximize the
effectiveness of the hanging air filter. Air circula-
tion must be thought out and all obstructions to
the air path considered.
Think of air circulation in terms of the circular
motion of the air before and after the air filter. The
air exiting the filter is exhausted at a higher veloc-
ity than that entering it. Consequently, exhaust
being vented inside a building can have an effect
on the pattern of air circulation.
Air circulation patterns will vary depending upon
which air flow speed is used and according to
your specific shop setup. Figure 7 shows an
example of good air circulation.

Figure 8 shows an example of poor air circulation,
where the air filter is placed too close to obstruc-
tions. In this situation, the velocity of the air is lost
and circulation is diminished.

much of the room unfiltered.
Study your shop layout and try to determine
the best location for the hanging air filter.
Air flow that is obstructed will cause a short
cycle effect, producing unsatisfactory results.
There must be a clearance of at least 3 ft.
from any obstructions in front and back of the
unit.
Try to place the air filter in front of high dust
producers like sanders or near areas where
sanding will take place.
Do not place the hanging air filter where
garage doors may pass closely or where it
may impede transport or movement of any
other object.
Try to place the unit where it is easy to access
for turning it on, cleaning and maintenance.
