8.4 Extracting dry materials
Observe the following when extracting dust generat-
ed by operating electric power tools:
If the exhaust air is discharged back into the room,
the air renewal rate L within the room must be suf-
ficient. The volume of air discharged back into the
room must not exceed 50% of the fresh air volume
flow (room volume V
R
x air renewal rate L
W
). Observe
all the relevant regional regulations.
Remember: A moist main filter clogs more quickly
when extracting dry materials. Therefore, dry the
main filter before extracting dust or replace the
damp filter with a dry one.
8.5 Extracting wet materials/liquids
Remove the filter or disposal bag!
Recommendation: use special wet filter (NF-
CT).
The dust extractor stops automatically when the
maximum level is reached.
After wet extraction, allow the main filter to dry!

ter automatically or manually (see chapter 8.2).
