Configuring for an Exhaust System Connection
Note: The Type C1 is configured at the factory to operate in recirculating mode (NOT
connected to an exhaust system). When operating in this mode, the cabinet ignores the
inlet relief valve position. If you intend to connect the Type C1 to an exhaust
system, YOU MUST RECONFIGURE IT FOR THIS INSTALLATION.
Note: If the Type C1 is connected to an exhaust system, and you choose to disconnect
it from the exhaust system, to exhaust its HEPA-filtered air back into the laboratory,
YOU MUST RECONFIGURE IT FOR THIS INSTALLATION. These instructions
follow.
a) Mechanical configuration
1. Unplug the Axiom. Using an appropriate ladder or platform, remove the
exhaust cover panel on the top right side of the exhaust cover, and install it
over the hole on the left side. Hand tighten the wing nuts to secure it, as
shown in figure 3-1.
2. Connect the Axiom’s connection collar to the exhaust system, ensuring the
connection meets all appropriate codes and regulations.
