general

Proper installation is important for satisfactory and trouble-free operation of the ESP-101 cutting package. It is
suggested that each step in this section be studied carefully and followed closely.
3.2

Equipment required

A source of clean, dry, oil-free air that supplies 500 cfh (236 l/m) at 90 psig (6.2 bars) is required for the cutting
operation. The air supply should not exceed 150 psig (10.3 bars) (the maximum inlet pressure rating of the air
filter-regulator supplied with the package).

Placement and location

After selecting an installation site, place the ESP-101 in the desired location. The unit may be lifted by either an
overhead crane or forklift truck. If using forklift truck, be sure that the lift forks are long enough to extend com-
pletely under the base. If using straps, use two separate straps as shown in the illustration.
Adequate ventilation is necessary to provide proper cooling of the ESP-101. The amount of
dirt, dust, and excessive heat to which the equipment is exposed, should be minimized. There
should be at least one foot of clearance between the ESP-101 power source and wall or any
other obstruction to allow freedom of air movement through the power source.
3.4

Inspection

1. Remove the shipping container and all packing material and inspect for evidence of
concealed damage which may not have been apparent upon receipt of the ESP-101.
Notify the carrier of any defects or damage at once.
2. Check container for any loose parts prior to disposing of shipping materials.
3. Check air louvers and any other openings to ensure that any obstruction is removed.
