NEX D/DX
EN 4.3Earth ontrol measurement
Check for proper earth connection, after both main in-
stallation and regular maintenance, as follows:
• NEX D has one earth wire. Measure according to Fig-
ure11 item 16.
• On NEX DX both the hose and the arm system are
connected to earth. Measure according to Figure11
item 16 and the following sequence:
1 Remove and isolate the earth wire of the hose
(see Figure13 item 5) from the connector.
2 Check earth continuity according to Figure11
item 16.
3 Reattach the earth wire, see Figure13 item 5.
4 Remove and isolate the earth wire of the arm,
see Figure11 item 17A and 17B.
5 Check earth continuity according to Figure11
item 16.
6 Reattach the earth wire, see Figure11 item 17A
and 17B.
5 Using NEX D/DX
WARNING!Ignition risk for some dust or
solvents
• Do not collect material that is caustic, explos-
ive, highly flammable, chemically unstable,
spontaneously ignitable, or which can re-
lease sparks.
• Check that no objects which can cause spark-
ing or fire are sucked into the arm, or impact
against the hood.
• Avoid mixing dust from different processes,
for example, service works and plastic grind-
ing mixed with metal grinding.
See Figure12. The extractor arm can easily be posi-
tioned at any point within its working area. t can be
rotated 180° when wall mounted and 360° when ceil-
ing mounted. For best capture, the hood should be po-
sitioned as near the fume or dust-generating process
as possible. The hood (on some models) is equipped
with a damper which can be adjusted with a lever.
Recommended airflow: 1700 m3/h (1000 cfm). Also,
check the local directions.
Always check that the airflow is sufficient in the hood
before work begins. nsufficient airflow is depending
on:
• The fan impeller rotating in the wrong direction.
• Hood, hose or 90°-bend are blocked.
• Filter cartridges are blocked.
6Maintenan e
Treat NEX D/DX as a part of other machinery and clean
it according to the cleaning procedure plan. n addi-
tion, clean and check it periodically according to the
instructions in Section6.1 nternal cleaning of hood,
hose and 90°-bend to Section6.4Adjusting the links.
WARNING!Risk of personal injury
• Use a dust filter mask and other necessary
safety equipment when cleaning the NEX D/
DX.
• Squeeze/crush risk at the horizontal link on
4m and 5m NEX-arm.
NOTE!
Fill out the service protocol for all maintenance
performed on the NEX D/DX.
The NEX D/DX can be dry or wet cleaned:
• Dry cleaning: Vacuum and wipe the components ex-
ternally and even internally if necessary.
• Wet cleaning: Use a detergent solution that will
not damage NEX D/DX, see Section3.1.1ATEX
products’. Follow the advice from the manufacturer
of the detergent solution regarding dosage and
washing method. Rinse with clean water. Use low
pressure and a water temperature of 40–50 °C.
Avoid directly rinsing sleeves, joints and so on. Let the
NEX-arm dry before it is used again.
6.1Internal leaning of hood, hose and
90°-bend
1 Detach hood and hose.
2 Carry out dry or wet cleaning according to instruc-
tions in Chapter6Maintenance.
3 Let the components dry.
4 Re-fit the components. Stretch the hose along the
lengths A and B.
5 Connect the hose spiral to earth, see Figure13.
Make sure the NEX D/DX is properly connected
to the earth. See Figure11 and Section4.3Earth
control measurement.
6.2Internal leaning, arm system
nternal cleaning is recommended approximately once
a year, see Figure14
1 Hold the arm in a straight, slight angle.
2 Detach hose, arm covers and bellows but not the
arm system, see Figure13
3 Carry out dry or wet cleaning according to instruc-
tions in Chapter6Maintenance.
4 Let the components dry.
5 Re-fit the components. (Hose: see Figure13.)
6 Make sure the NEX D/DX is properly connected
to the earth. See Figure11 and Section4.3Earth
control measurement.
6.3Regular maintenan e
Regular maintenance is recommended at least once a
year.
