According to the 99/92/EC ATEX 137 Directive, manufacturer
carried out the classification of the internal and external zones,
connected with the explosion hazard during the operation
of the filtering unit.
In the Fig. No.1 is presented the classification of the internal
zones. The chamber of filters and the hopper chamber along
with the waste container have been specified as zone 20/21,
because in these areas always and in long periods potentially
explosive atmosphere occurs.
Whereas, the regeneration chamber is classified as zone 22,
because the dust occurs in this area sporadically, in case of
failures consisting in damage of the cartridge filter or the filter
mounting.
External zones can be created:
while opening the inspection doors,

STRUCTURE ADN FUNCTION
5.1 Structure
BIG-12000/Ex filtering unit consists of three functional assemblies:
Regeneration chamber, being the upper part of the device, where are located outlets from the cartridge filters and
Venturi Orifices. Outside the regeneration chamber is installed the compressed air installation, consisting of:
–
compressed air tank –constructed for operational pressure not exceeding 0,8 MPa, the tank meets the re-
quirements of the European Union Directive 87/404/EEG and 90/488/EEG;
–
four electromagnetic valves of diameter 1”½, designed for regeneration of the cartridge filters, these valves
meet the requirements of directives: ATEX 94/9/EC and EMC 2014/30/EC;
Chamber of filters –forms the middle part of the filtering unit and contains the cartridge filters. On the chamber
housing is located the inspection door, (for filter replacement) and a decompression panel lowering the pressure
in case of potential explosion. Outside the chamber is installed a micro-controller –to activate the electromagnetic
valves, (described in details in Section 7);
Supporting construction along with the hopper chamber. Underneath the hopper chamber is placed a self-loading
funnel for dust / waste and a cell feeder –providing a continuous dust discharging and its loading into the transport
container or into the discharge ducting. Discharge of the accumulated dust ought to be carried out by operator.
Fig. No.2 –BIG-12000-/Ex –Structure and dimensions
BIG-12000/Ex filtering unit is served by an Ex execution fan (as additional equipment upon separate order). To
control the device is applied a switchgear, which should be installed outside (beyond)the zone of
explosion hazard. Detailed description can be found in Section 7 of the present Use and Maintenance Manual.
CAUTION:The switchgear is delivered upon separate order.
5.2 Function
BIG-12000/Ex filtering unit provides separation of the air containing dry dust fraction. The dust laden air is guided
to the chamber of filters. Here, in the decompression process and because of the flow velocity reduction, larger
particles of dust are extracted into the hopper chamber, and subsequently they fall into the waste container.

Precise dust cleaning proceeds while the air flows through the cartridge filters. In the Fig. No.3 is presented a run
diagram of the air flow through the filtering unit. As the dust accumulates on the operational surface of the cartridge
filters, this reduces the air flow intensity. To limit this disturbance, the device is equipped with a continuous
regeneration system of the filters. The impulses of compressed air (directed into the cartridge filters) strike off the
dust particles. The cleaning air is supplied from the compressed air tank, through the electromagnetic valves that
are operated by the micro-controller (as in details described in Section No.7).
In the Fig. No.4 is illustrated a schematic diagram of regeneration of the cartridge filters.

ASSEMBLY AND STARTUP
6.1 Description of mounting
Before the assembly of the device in the place of use, check if the device is complete, and if it is not damaged, or
there are indentations, etc. The appliance is delivered in two assemblies, so it should be installed by means of
adequate lifting devices and by a specialised assembly team.
First, put the supporting structure with the hopper chamber. The supporting frame should be levelled and its legs
fastened firmly to the floor. Having installed the first assembly, put the chamber of filters (with the fixed to it
regeneration chamber) on it. Handle with care, as the assembly is of large dimensions. At the upper part of the
regeneration chamber are installed lifting hooks (for lifting and positioning during the transport and assembly
activities).
After the chamber of filters is connected with the supporting structure, seal up the join surface with “silicone” and
screw it up thoroughly with bolts. The screws, bolts and “silicone” are delivered by manufacturer along with the
device.
The compressed air tank and the electromagnetic valves are delivered to the operator in completely assembled
state. Having installed the device, connect it to the external compressed air installation of 0,6 0,8 MPa. The
pressure air must not contain pollutants, oil and humidity.
The connection must be equipped with a cut-off valve, air filter and a dewaterer. These elements are not
delivered along with the device. The nominal diameter of the compressed air connection (for the device of 16
cartridge filters and at the nominal diameter of the compressed air tank of 8”) should be 1”1/2.
6.2 Start-up
Upon first operation of the compressed air installation (of the device), check if the connected part of the
compressed air system is sufficiently cleaned of the metal particles, raspings, rust, etc., because the membrane
of the electromagnetic valves would get damaged. If in the first stage of start-up there is not enough air flow
intensity (in the system) –this means the valves are not tight enough. Shut the cut-off valve in the supply of the
compressed air tank. Wait until the air pressure in the system reaches 0,6 0,8 MPa, and then quickly open the
cut-off valve.
Connect the electrical system, power supply and the control units –strictly according to the enclosed Connection
Diagram Fig. No.6, 7 and 8. As the control system is very complicated, any activity of device connection/energizing
must be carried out by an authorised installing team with qualifications. The filtering unit and the fan should be
connected to the equilibrating grounding profile.
Connect the motor with reference to the adequate data placed on the nominal data plate and in conformity with
the Connection Diagram on the cover of the terminal box (fastened to the motor).
Switchgear A1 should be mounted in area, beyond the explosion hazard zone.
