Applications
RONDA80H is a vacuum cleaner in accordance with DS/EN 60335-2-2 and CEI/IEC 60335-2-69 Annex AA
class H and may only be used as such.
RONDA80H may be used for collection of dust hazardous to health according to CEI/IEC 60335-2-69 Annex AA
dust class H.
RONDA80H may not be used for collection of fluids or moist dust.
RONDA80H may not be used for collection of flammable, explosive, poisonous or extremely health hazardous
dust types, fluids or gasses.
RONDA80H may only be used in dry environments and may not be used or stored outdoors or indoors under
wet conditions.
The capacity of a vacuum cleaner to suck vacuum depends on the air. Theoretical the suction capacity will fall
when the vacuum cleaner is used at altitudes. The suction capacity of the vacuum cleaner will be constant from 0
to approx. 800 m above sea level. From 800 to 2000 m the suction capacity will theoretically fall to approx. 75%. It
is not recommended to use the vacuum cleaner at more than 2000 m above sea level, as the cooling and the
suction capacity will be considerably reduced.

Manual
V. BRØNDUM A/S RONDA80H ENG-9
Description of the Main Parts
RONDA80H is designed as a handy and compact industrial vacuum cleaner for collection of fine and health
hazardous dust, soot and ash.
Motor Top with Suction Motor and HEPA Filter
The motor top is equipped with suction motor, an
integrated handle, and switches for the suction motor.
Suction motor of RONDA80H is located in the motor
top.
The motor top is fitted with a HEPA filter in dust class ”H”.
The filter holds back the fine and smallest dust particles,
which have not been held back by the pre- filter. The filter
holds back the particles larger than 0.3 m (0.0003 mm).
The surface of the filter is 1.1 m2.
The pre-filter is placed right below the HEPA filter and will
protect the HEPA filter in case of a leak in the collection
bag.
The pre-filter can easily be pulled off, in case it remains in
the upper part when removing the motor top.
Motor Top with Alarm and Chock Valve
The motor top is equipped with a chock valve (back-flush) and a light for warning in
case of too low air flow (<20 m/s).

Manual
V. BRØNDUM A/S RONDA80H ENG-10
Collection Container and Collection Bag
Inside the collection container the collection bag is placed. The material is collected into the collection bag, which
facilitates the emptying and disposal of the vacuumed material. When vacuuming very fine dust, it is not possible
to fill the collection bag entirely.
Use a collection bag for collection of the vacuumed material. When collecting health-hazardous dust, you must
pay attention to the requirements as to disposal of the collected material (i.e. closed collection system such as
plastic bag or container). The demands as to packing of the collected material may vary –contact the local
authorities and waste management institution for further information.
Insert the hose AFTER the collection bag has been placed.
Place the collection bag in the holder
before the hose coupling is mounted.
Push the flange of the bag into the slit
of the holder.
Insert the coupling in the machine and turn to the right to lock.
When the coupling is mounted, the small pointer of the coupling
(see picture 1) must point obliquely to the right (see picture 2).

Manual
V. BRØNDUM A/S RONDA80H ENG-11
IMPORTANT:
When changing the collection bag, the hose must be removed before turning off the machine.
So do not turn off the vacuum cleaner, until the hose has been removed. This is to avoid any remaining dust in
the hose.
The container is equipped with a plug/stopper for the coupling which is to be
used during transport and whenever the machine is not operating.

Manual
V. BRØNDUM A/S RONDA80H ENG-12
Mode of Operation
When the suction motor of the machine is on, the air will be led through the
machine and will collect the dust particles near the nozzle mounted.
The dust particles will be sucked through the hose into the collection container,
where the majority of the particles will be held back in the collection bag and/or
the pre- filter.
The air flow and the remaining particles, which have not fallen to the bottom of the
collection container or have been held back in the collection bag or the pre-filter,
will be carried forward to the HEPA filter.
From the HEPA filter the purified air flow will continue through the suction pump
(blow through) and will be led out of the vacuum cleaner through the exhaust and
noise reduction filters.
IMPORTANT! As the motor leads the cooling air through the machine,
all filters MUST be mounted and intact.
IMPORTANT! Never cover up the motor top when the machine is in use.
IMPORTANT! Never collect warm or glowing materials.
IMPORTANT! Never extract from processes producing sparks.

Manual
V. BRØNDUM A/S RONDA80H ENG-13
Assembling
Check that the packing is intact and has no sign of damage from handling and transport.
Unpack RONDA80H and check that all the parts ordered are there.
Check that the collection container is empty and that the filters have been correctly mounted in the
collection container. Check that the filters of the machine are intact and undamaged (see the chapter
“Change of Filters”).
Insert a collection bag (see the chapter “Collection Container and Collection Bag”)
Before the plug is connected to the electrical main supply you must make sure that the plug and the cord
are undamaged. If the cord or the plug is damaged, a professional must replace the parts. Only an
original cord may be mounted.
Connect the machine to 230 V power supply.
Remember to place the label onto the H-label, if the language of the user is not German.
RONDA80H is now ready for use. The collection is described in details in the following chapter.

Manual
V. BRØNDUM A/S RONDA80H ENG-14
Collection of Dry Dust
When the machine has been correctly assembled and connected, it can be switched on and off at the start/stop
switch of the motor top. The machine has been equipped with a warning lamp indicating when the air flow is too
low for collection. This warning lamp has to be checked before use:
Block the intake at the end of the hose, and the warning lamp will light up. Unblock, and the lamp will switch off.
Cleaning the pre-filter during operation (as needed or when the warning lamp lights)
Block the intake / hose so that full vacuum is created inside the machine.
Repeat the steps 1-3 approx. 2-3 times when cleaning.
The difference in pressure / the shock effect will clean the surface of the filter, when air is drawn through the valve
in order to suppress the negative pressure in the collection container and the hose, and will reject possible
deposits from the pre-filter.
The pressure relief valve will close. This method gives an effective cleaning of the pre-filter.
It is recommended always to leave the machine for a few minutes before emptying it, if the machine is being used
without collection bag. The dust will fall to the bottom of the container, and the risk of swirling dust into the
surroundings during the emptying is reduced.
NOTE: Do not ”tap” on the intake as this will swirl up the dust in the container and result in blocking of the pre-
filter. Therefore ALWAYS use the shock valve for cleaning of the pre-filter during operation.
1.
Block the intake / block the
hose.
Take hold of the flap of the
shock valve.
2.
Pull the flap of the shock valve
while the machine is blocked
and running (do not tug the
valve).
3.
When the power grows bigger
than the influence from the
vacuum, the valve will
automatically open with a
“puff”. Let go of the valve.

Manual
V. BRØNDUM A/S RONDA80H ENG-15
Emptying
With the RONDA80H the vacuumed material must be collected in a collection bag.
Loosen the four container clips attaching the motor top to the collection container and remove the motor
top.
Place the motor top on a dry and clean surface.
The collection bag is removed from the container coupling.
Close the collection bag.
Now you can dispose of the collection bag.
REMEMBER: Disposal of dust hazardous to health must take place in accordance with the national regulations.
Place a new collection bag in the collection container.
Slide the flange of the collection bag into the bag holder.
Put the pre-filter and motor top in place.
REMEMBER: Always empty the machine after use.
Failing to do so may lead to self-ignition of the machine.
You must make sure that the dust and material collected cannot fall out of the machine during transport: place the
plug/stopper in the container coupling.
REMEMBER: If the machine has been used for dust hazardous to health you MUST wear personal
protection equipment (PPE) when emptying and handling the machine.

IMPORTANT!
The machine must be disconnected
from the power supply during service
and cleaning.
Cleaning and Maintenance
The machine must always be emptied after use. If the
machine is left with dust, there is a risk of self-ignition.
Read the chapter about safety precautions before cleaning
and maintenance.
The easiest way to clean the machine is as follows:
The pre-filter is cleaned as required (see the relevant chapter)
Wipe the machine on the outside with a dry or damp cloth.
Maintenance of the Motor Top
The motor top is made of maintenance-free parts and needs therefore no daily maintenance, apart from external
cleaning and check that the cords and plugs are undamaged.
The easiest way to clean the motor top is with a damp cloth. Do not aim jets of water directly at the motor top.
In order to avoid stop in operation and also to make sure that the safety of the vacuum cleaner is intact, it is
recommended that the electrical parts are inspected annually by an authorized technician.
It is recommended to have an authorized service centre inspect the suction motor after approx. 700 working
hours!

Changing Filters
In General
When replacing the filters, the necessary precautions to protect the environment and the respiratory passages of
the operator must be taken. The nature and scope of these precautions must be based upon the type of tasks that
the vacuum cleaner has been used for, and how harmful the dust on the surface of the filters is. Before checking
or replacing the filters, you must clean the pre-filter as previously described, and you must empty the machine.
The filters are to be handled in a way not causing any danger, and the safety equipment must be appropriate for
the job.
Check and Replacement of the pre-filter (item no. 84.67.3049)
The pre-filter is made of a robust filter material. However, the filter will gradually be worn by the many large and
small particles that are held back. Therefore it is necessary to regularly check if the filter is undamaged and intact.
If the filter material is not intact, the pre-filter cannot hold back the dust particles, which will penetrate the filter and
be caught by the HEPA filter. The HEPA filter is intended for very fine dust and will rapidly be blocked, if the pre-
filter is damaged.
Loosen the container clips of the motor top and remove the motor top.
Place the motor top on a dry, clean and flat surface.
Inspect the top surface of the pre-filter for dust particles. If there are many visible dust particles there, it is
a clear sign that the pre-filter is damaged and worn.
A damaged or worn pre-filter must be replaced.
A replacement of the pre-filter should also include a replacement of the HEPA filter.
Replacement of the HEPA Filter (Item no. 84.67.5036)
Loosen the four container clips of the motor top and remove the
motor top. Place the motor top so that the filter is easily
accessible.
In order to ensure a dust-free emptying when replacing the
HEPA filter, the following procedure must be followed:

Manual
V. BRØNDUM A/S RONDA80H ENG-18
How to remove the HEPA filter:
Remove the nut fastening the HEPA filter.
Use a size 10 ring spanner.
BE CAREFUL not to throw away the
nut, washer and seal.
These are to be used again.
Pull a plastic bag (100 μm or the like) over the filter.
Pull off the filter from the bracket so the O-ring and the base
are released.
Remove the O-ring and base. Both are to be disposed of
with the used filter.
Close the bag with a
cable tie.
Always dispose of the
filter in accordance with
the national regulations
for the material collected.

Manual
V. BRØNDUM A/S RONDA80H ENG-19
Disposal of Used Filters
When you dispose of the used filters you must make sure that this is
done according to the national regulations.
How to mount the new HEPA filter:
Apply some moisture or lubricant to the O-ring
before mounting.
Push the filter down over the bracket until it is on the
adapter ring, in one workflow.
Do not pull the filter, as this will release the O-ring
and locking ring from their position.
Fit seal, washer, and end with locking nut.
Tighten with approx. 25nM.

Manual
V. BRØNDUM A/S RONDA80H ENG-20
Troubleshooting
If the machine does not collect the material in a satisfactory way (alarm beeps):
The suction hose, tube or nozzle may be blocked.
Stop the machine, and remove the blocking.
The collection container or the collection bag may be filled to overflowing.
Stop the machine and empty the container. See the chapter about emptying.
A leak might have arisen in connection with the mounting of the motor top.
Start the machine and block the suction hose. Normally you can hear a possible leak. Loosen the container
clips of the motor top, place the motor top correctly and lock the clips again.
The collection bag may be blocked.
If you collect very fine dust, the collection bag may block before it is completely full.
Replace the collection bag.
The pre-filter may be blocked.
Clean the pre-filter as described in the chapter about cleaning of filter during operation.
The HEPA filter may be blocked.
Replace the filter as described in the chapter about change of filters.
The replacement of spare parts must be made by V. BRØNDUM A/S, an authorized V. BRØNDUM A/S dealer or
a similarly qualified person in order to avoid hazards.
