We are working on a system for one of our customers that uses a WX 3000 dust collector. We need price for new filter material and water level sensor. We are also wondering if the XXZPB 100 is suppose to be removed once unit is running. We ar having problems with the unit showing an alarm and shuting off. The filters are extremely dirty and the unit tank has not be cleanned for a long time. Do you have any suggestions
