2Operating Manual – Air Cleaner TAC 5000 / 6500 EN
Description of the device
Air cleaners are used to filter the room air. On building sites and
renovation areas high concentrations of dust can arise, for
instance when using angle grinders or during blasting, chiselling
or demolition operations as well as when mixing dry mortar or tile
cement. This dust is to be vacuumed off as close as possible to
the point of origin in order to reduce the pollution of the breathing
air to a minimum.
Depending on the used filter quality it is permissible to employ
devices for the separation of quartziferous mineral dusts, wood
dust, lead-containing dusts, artificial mineral fibres such as old
mineral wool or high-temperature fibres. Application as vacuum
generator for mould remediation and asbestos abatement is also
a possibility. In case of other hazardous substances, further
requirements may result from HAZMAT regulations
(Please observe the applicable TRGS [Technical Rules for Hazard-
ous Substances] or provision!).
TAC air cleaners are therefore ideally suited for:
• producing a vacuum in a room, e.g. heavily contaminated
spaces;
• producing overpressure in a room, e.g. cleanroom;
• air purification in workspaces via air circulation, e.g. indoor
building sites, workshops etc.;
• supplying filtered fresh air.
The air cleaners TAC 5000 and TAC 6500 are basically made up
of the following:
• housing with stacking aid
• set of wheels with at least 2 swivel castors with brake
• boxes for pre-filter and main filter
• filter monitoring each for pre-filter and main filter
• fan with speed control
• Flowmatic for constant volumetric flow control
Filterboxes
The filterboxes can be fitted with various air filters depending on
the application or requirement:
• Filterbox 1: coarse filter (Z-Line G4) and/or
fine filter (pleated M5 to F9)
•Filterbox2:HEPAfilter
(E10…H14 or dust class M to dust class H)
alternatively:
• Filterbox 2: bag filter (M5 to F9),
in that event the fine filter in filterbox 1 can be omitted
The filterboxes are made of aluminium sheet and powder-coated.
Filter types (not included in the scope of delivery)
The designated air filters are especially geared to our devices and
come with the largest possible filter surface based on the
geometric dimensions. This ensures maximum air flow rate and
lifetime for safe operation.
Filter monitoring
Monitoring is effected respectively for the pre-filter (filterbox 1)
and main filter (filterbox 2) by means of individual differential
pressure switches. These are integrated in the fan box.
Settings:
• Filter 1 = 300 Pa
• Filter 2 = 650 Pa
The alarm is indicated both visually and acoustically via warning
lights (filter 1 and filter 2).
Flowmatic
The Flowmatic is a configurable differential pressure transmitter
with display. It serves to analyse the measured differential pres-
sure at the fan's injection nozzle. The specific nozzle factor (K
value; depending on the type of nozzle) is used to convert the dif-
ferential pressure to volumetric flow and to display it. At the same
time the current value is transmitted to the fan's internal control-
ler via a standard signal (0…10 V).
The controller now compares the actual value with the nominal
value preset by use of the speed controller and compensates the
discrepancy by lowering or raising the engine speed. Should the
maximum engine speed be reached and the volumetric flow still
be too low, it cannot be compensated.

This devices provides the user with the possibility to adjust the fil-
ter qualities and the array of the filter ladder in a few simple steps
according to the applicable provisions and guidelines. There are
three basic applications:
1. The building site configuration for separation of suspended
matter as per DIN EN 60335-2-69 to dust class H; main
priority with these applications has the filtering of dust
particles dangerous to health, to some extent even
carcinogenic. The entire filter ladder has to be operated at
underpressure to prevent unfiltered air from escaping even in
case of leakages when sucking off these dusts. Which means
that the fan is to be positioned downstream of the main
filter! These are to be braced using tensioning elements on
the unit side so that the high-efficiency particulate air filter
does not come into contact with polluted air at the outlet
during the entire operating time and the risk of leaks is
minimized!
2. The cleanroom configuration for separation of suspended
matter as per DIN EN 1822-1:1998 to filter class H14 (in case
of a substantially reduced air volume filters with higher filtra-
tion efficiencies are also an option); as a rule air from a pol-
luted area is fed to a cleanroom, e.g. as fresh air supply. The
applicable regulations usually demand that the filtered air
may only come into contact with a clean air pipe/duct oper-
ated at overpressure. Therefore, the fan is to be positioned
upstream of the main filter! Here, too, the elements are to
be braced as stated in point 1!
3. Generic configuration for simple air purification applications
for filtering coarse dust or fine particulates as per DIN EN 779
to filter class F9; these applications do not require any par-
ticular fan position. For reasons of simplified filter change
management it is recommended for the fan to be the last el-
ement to be incorporated and braced.
Note:
For the individual configurations it is important to make sure that
the air hoses (marked a, b, c, d) and the dummy plug (28) are
connected to the measuring points (marked A, B, C, D, E) accord-
ing to the box arrangement (pre-filter=1+main filter=2 +fan=3).
Otherwise the filter monitoring will not be working!

• When putting up the device, position it in the room's centre
the air of which is to be cleaned. Alternatively, you can also
position the device near the source of air contamination.
• Set the device up in a level, upright and stable position.
• Do not create tripping hazards when laying the power cable
or other electric cables.
• Make sure that no curtains or other objects interfere with the
air flow.
• Ensure that extension cords are completely unrolled.
Sliding cover
1. For opening pull stacking handles up and fold them down.
2. Pull the sliding cover outwards with a jerk and shove it apart
all the way to the stop.
3. For closing push the sliding covers together until they lock in
place.
4. Tilt the stacking handles up and lock them.
Hinged cover
• Swing the hinged covers upward until they are held (magnet).
• Proceed in reverse for closing.
Start-up
1. Open the sliding cover, remove the power cable from the box
(fan) and hook it into the recess. Make sure that the cable will
not be crushed when closing the sliding cover.
2. Actuate the green switch (lights up).
3. Adjust the speed controller until the desired volumetric flow
is indicated.
Shutdown
1. Switch off the device.
2. Remove the mains plug from the mains socket.
3. Clean the device according to chapter Maintenance.
4. Store the device according to chapter Storage.
The accurate functionality of the device was tested during pro-
duction a number of times. However, if functionality faults do
occur, then check the device according to the following list.
The device does not start:
• Check the power connection (230 V AC/50 Hz).
• Check the mains plug for damages.
Your device still does not operate correctly after these
checks?
