dust separator WE-5,5/D 08.11.2019
1. Introductory Remarks
The purpose of the present Use and Maintenance Manual is to supply User with directions wi-
thin the range of application, installation, start-up and the use of the WE-5,5/D dust separator.
Installing, start up and operational use are exclusively admissible after getting acquaint-
ted with the contents of the Use and Maintenance Manual.
With regard to continuity of work carried on improvement of our products, we reserve for oursel-
ves the revision possibility of the draft and technological changes improving their functional fea-
tures and safety.
Construction of the WE-5,5/D dust separator meets the requirements of the current state of te-
chnology as well as the safety and health assurances included in:
2006/42/EC Machinery Directive of the European Parliament and of the Council of May 17th,
2006 on machinery –amending the 95/16/EC (recast) /Journal of Laws EC L157 of 09.06.2006, page 24/
2014/35/EC Directive of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 February, 2014
on the harmonisation of the laws of the Member States relating to the making available on the
market of electrical equipment designed for use within certain voltage limits. /Journal of Laws
EC L96 of 29.03.2014/
The appliance meets the requirements included in:
2009/125/EC (ErP) Directive of the European Parliament and of the Council of October 21th,
2009 establishing a framework for the setting of ecodesign requirements for energy-related
products / Journal of Laws L 285 of 31.10.2009 /
327/2011 (EU) Regulation of March 30th, 2011 on implementing the 2009/125/EC Directive
of the European Parliament and of the Council with regard to ecodesign requirements for fans
driven by motors with an electric input power between 125W and 500 kW
/ Journal of Laws L No. 90 of 06.04.2011 /
Additionally, the appliance meets following harmonized standard:
“Safety of machinery –Basic concepts, general principles
for design. Risk assessment and risk reduction”
“Safety of machinery –Electrical equipment of machines
Part 1: General requirements”
“Safety of machinery –Safe distances to prevent hazard
zones being reached by upper and lower limbs”
“Degrees of protection provided by enclosures (IP Code)”
“Low-voltage switchgears and controlgear assemblies
Part 1: General resolutions”
“Safety of electrical appliances for household and similar
use –Part 1: General requirements”.
CAUTION: The fan and the vibration mechanism included in the device as a rotating ma-
chine constitute a potential source of risk in case when:
installation, start up or servicing is not carried out by a qualified personnel,
the device is not used in compliance with its purpose and designation.
2. Application
WE-5,5/D dust separator has been engineered to solve the problems pertaining to the extraction
and filtering the health hazardous dry dusts, arising during the grinding of non-sparking materials,
cast iron machining, powder painting, packing and re-packing the powdery materials, dust extrac-
tion from processing machines being used at various workplaces. The dust separator captures
the impurities arising during the production process, before they reach the breathing zone of the
personnel. In case when the device is used for easy flammable dusts (e.g. wood grinding),
it cannot be used simultaneously for other technological processes emitting sparking du-
ring the work.Additionally, important are fire protection regulations.
WE-5,5/D is designed for dry dusts, that could not create explosive atmospheres, i.e. mixture
of flammable substances in a form of dusts with the air, in atmospheric conditions, where the
