5.0 Assembly, installation and start of
operation
5.1 Location
It is recommended to use the PERMA arm indoors.
5.2 Installation
The PERMA arm is delivered in separate parts. Base,
hoods and other accessories are to be assempled on
site.
Procedure:
1. The Spiro pipe or wall/ceiling bracket is mounted
with brackets on the wall or ceiling at the appropria-
te height.
2. Typical installation height is adapted to the work po-
sition: Standing or sitting.
3. The base of the arm is mounted in the spiro pipe
/ ceiling bracket / wall bracket pipe with screws or
pop nuts. It is IMPORTANT that the arm is mounted
on the right side of the pipe. (See photo below)
3A. Press the base up into the pipe.
3B. Drill 3 holes distributed around the pipe.
3C. Drill the holes 9 mm over the edge.
3D. Do not drill the holes on the 4 white markings, shown
with the 2 red arrows.
3E. Do not drill deeper than 6 mm.
4. The first arm joint must be installed so that it can be
placed in a horizontal position from the wall.
5. The hood or extraction pen is mounted.
6. Tighten the arm joint, so that the arm can hold itself.
Mounting of optional equipment
Geovent o󰀨ers a great range of accessories for the
PERMA arm: Round hood, extraction pen, at hood,
aluminium hood. There are di󰀨erent types af acces-
sories for each type of arm ø57, ø57 ESD, ø76 and ø76
ESD.
As standard the arm is delivered with manual damper for
opening and closing the air passage.
When the product is to be used to ATEX or ESD it must
be secured, that the product is marked as such. Further
it is important that the arm is grounded.
5.3 Control and test of the security system
After the final mounting, the PERMA arm should be
adjusted to the typical working area, for optimum utilisa-
tion of the arm. Do so by adjusting the points mentioned
in item section 3.3.1.
After some time of use the arm may have difficulty with
holding itself. In this case the finger screws at the joints
must be tightened.

6.0 Commissioning
For normal use the arm is self-retaining in the required
position within the working area. The bracket of the arm
supplies a 360° rotary working area.
If the arm has been correctly dimensioned, the hood of
the arm should be placed in a vertical position.
That is just above the pollutant.In this case up to 99% of
the polluting particles will be caught.
Always check that the correct volume of air is extracted
by the suction pen or/hood.
The Arm does not work if …
• unauthorised parts have been mounted on the arm.
• if anything is suspended from the arm. The arm is
only intended to support the weight of the arm.
7.2 Maintenance
Periodic maintenance
• When it becomes difficult to position the arm, e.g. if it
will not remain in the required position, please adjust
the finger screws on the joints.
• Please check the condition of the hose and the
spring, and exchange them if necessary.
Please contact your dealer in respect of spare parts.
At least once annually, the whole point extraction system
should be overhauled by an authorised serviceman.
7.3 Replacement of equipment
Geovent has made it easy to replace equipment on the
PERMA arm. When you need to change a hood or a
at hood, screw o󰀨 existing hood or extraction pen and
mount the new hood.
8.0 Cleaning
The outside of the product is cleaned with a vacuum
cleaner or a cloth.
9.0 Troubleshooting
If there is insufficient suction in the hood: Check if there
is full flow in the arm, if the ventilator is switched on and
if the ventilator is working as prescribed.
If the arm does not stay up, check that the arm is corre-
ctly mounted as in 5.3 above.
10.0 Dismantling, disabling and scrapping
