SAFETY RULES
Follow all electrical and safety codes as well as the National Electrical Code (NEC), National Fire Protection Association (NFPA),
and the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA). Qualified personnel should perform all electrical connections and wiring only.
National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) standards require specific duct design and dust collector configuration when collecting
potentially reactive metal dusts, such as aluminum, magnesium, and other materials. NFPA also covers other dusts such as grain
and plastics, etc. A guideline for determining the precautions to be taken can be found in NFPA 497. Other NFPA standards may
apply to your specific application. Consult current NFPA standards, available for NFPA, 1 Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA, 02269,
800-344-3555, for applicable safeguards which may be required for the Installation, Operation, and Service of this product.
Additional references are the Uniform Building Code and the Uniform Mechanical Code.
ALWAYS USE BLUE OX REPLACEMENT FILTERS & PARTS TO MAINTAIN WARRANTY.

DISCLAIMER
Although instructions and recommendations are included for installation or your mist or dust collector equipment, the manufacturer does not
assume responsibility for the installation of this equipment nor shall be held liable for direct or consequential damages resulting from
improper methods, structural failure or inadequate supports.
WARNING
1. Avoid mixing combustible materials such as (but not limited to) buffing lint, paper / wood dust, aluminum or magnesium
with dust generated from the grinding of ferrous materials. This creates a potential for fire due to the mixing of sparks
and combustible materials.
2. Under no conditions should the machine operator be allowed to put lit cigarettes or any burning object into this or any
dust/mist control system.
3. Installation of this unit in applications where there is a chance for heated and/or flammable materials to enter the unit
should be evaluated to determine if a fire protection/extinguishing system should be installed. Federal, state or local
codes, a required by organizations such as NFPA and Factory Mutual Insurance or your insurance carrier may require
such a system. Air Cleaning Specialists, Inc. can offer basic guidelines for such an installation; however, final
installation design is the responsibility of the filtration unit
Owner/User.
4. Explosion relief vents are required on some applications. Consult with an insurance underwriter or an NFPA manual to
determine proper vent size ratio. Dust or mist collectors must be located outdoors unless otherwise indicated by NFPA
standards. Dust and mist collectors DO NOT CONTAIN EXPLOSION RELIEF VENTS as shipped from the factory and
must be field installed per NFPA standards.

SAFETY
READ AND SAVE THIS MANUAL COMPLETELY AND COMPLY AS DIRECTED. THIS MANUAL CONTAINS
PRECAUTIONARY STATEMENTS RELATING TO WORKER SAFETY. WORKERS HANDLING EQUIPMENT OR
SYSTEMS SHOULD BE INSTRUCTED TO CONDUCT THEMSELVES IN A SAFE MANNER. ALL THE POTENTIAL
HAZARD OF DUST AND MIST CONTROL SYSTEMS AND EQUIPMENT ARE IMPOSSIBLE TO LIST. THEREFORE,

Initial Inspection
If your new BLUE OX units were shipped in by truck you should inspect the carton for damages or possible shortages. If
there are any signs of possible shipping damages, unpack the units and make a note of the shortage or damage on the
freight bill before signing it. If the carton is opened at a later time and there is damage to the unit, you should file a
concealed damage claim with the delivery carrier. They are responsible for any damages in shipment or shortages that
were actually shipped.
Installing Your New Blue OX Units
All installations must meet all electrical or mechanical building codes that may apply in your particular area. If there are
no local requirements, you should follow the National requirements. If the optional Drain Plug was installed in your
unit, you can connect an appropriate 3/8” I.D. rubber hose for oil/mist routing.
All chains, hooks, bolts or other items used in the installation must be at least strong enough to support FOUR times the
weight of each unit. Unit weights are as follows:
BLUE OX2500D ..................................175 lbs.
BLUE OX2500D-CF .............................205 lbs.
BLUE OX2500D-CC .............................225 lbs.
BLUE OX2500D-HE .............................215 lbs.
BLUE OX2500D-WAL ..........................210 lbs.
BLUE OX2500D-WAR .........................210 lbs.
Methods for Mounting your OX2500D Unit
There are many different ways to install your units. The most common method of installing the units is to
support them from the ceiling structure with four chains. If the factory is going to utilize this method, you
should have 4 holes drilled down through the top of the unit approximately 6” from each end and 1” from each
side of the unit. The factory will then install Eye-Bolts that can be used to attached chain or rod. An eye bolt kit
is available at an additional cost.
Another available option is Strut Channel, which will be placed underneath the Blue OX and then hung with
appropriate steel chains and Q-Links.
The top end of the chains must be secured to the ceiling structure in a safe and acceptable manner.
The last typical method for installation is a duel L-Bracket mount, which is ideal for wall mounting.
The next page includes sketches indicating possible methods of mounting your OX2500D cabinets. Please ensure
all installations are secure and meet all local, state, and federal codes. Be sure your unit is connected to the
proper voltage and is protected by correct size fuses or breakers.
