Maintenance

At least once per month, check the condition of the two filters on the back of the device. If they are dirty, simply

remove them by snapping off the covers, removing the filter media, washing them out with mild soap and water,

drying the filters and re-installing.

Exhaust Air Filtration Unit

The exhaust air filtration unit provides exhaust flow to remove the smoke and

fumes generated during laser processing of materials. It also contains a three

stage filtration system to clean the exhaust air removed from the laser system.

The three stage filtration system consists of a pre-filter to remove coarse

particulates, a HEPA filter to remove fine particulate and an activated charcoal

filter to remove fumes and odors. A high-pressure vacuum motor is employed

to provide the air flow. The filtration unit also serves as a base for the laser

system.

To reduce noise and prolong filter life, the filtration unit only operates while the

laser system is running a job.

The filtration unit has sensors to monitor the pre and HEPA filters and a

consumption meter to monitor consumption of the carbon filter. The UCP

provides warnings when it is time to change each filter.

Note: Always keep a spare set of filters on hand to reduce downtime.

Filter replacement

The Carbon filter is housed in the bottom drawer of the filter unit and the Pre and HEPA filters are housed in the

top drawer. To replace any of the filters, open the drawer and remove the drawer lid. Remove the filter and

replace it with a new one. The HEPA filter is underneath the pre filter so you will have to remove the pre filter to

gain access to it.

Maintenance

The area around the pre filter and the chamber above the HEPA filter may become dirty over time. It is a good

idea to take an opportunity to clean these areas with a vacuum cleaner and/or a wipe down with a mild soap

solution when replacing these filters.
