Overview

The XA4 Articulated Capture Arm comes equipped with all new features for added functionality. The XA4 empowers operators with more ways to configure their station than before using a strut-supported base and spring-assisted hanging arm. With 360 degrees of rotation around the base, spark resistant joints throughout, and dual pivots at the hood, it’s never been easier to position your fume extraction arm for optimal capture of airborne contaminants at the source. A robust, powder-coated steel construction facilities long life and sustained performance of this capture arm in any industrial environment. Airflow control can be fine tuned thanks to the extraction arm’s internal damper. Available in 6” and 8” diameter configurations, XA4 can be customized for nearly any application with additional features including electrical grounding, LED lighting, hood mounted arrestors, and more.

Arm to Remote Mount Bracket Installation

Unpack capture arm, hood, and base
Wall mount bracket standard assembly:
- Mount Swivel Base to Remote Mount Bracket.
- Tighten all Bolts (8) with Washers (8).
- Torque each bolt to 23 N m.
Attach swivel base to remote mount bracket.
Attach capture arm to swivel base:
- Mount Swivel Base to Remote Mount Bracket.
- Tighten all Bolts (8) with Washers (8).
- Torque each bolt to 23 N m.

+ Perform Routine Maintenance

Yearly Inspection:

Clean unreadable labels and exterior surfaces.
Check for tears in flex hoses and fitting of hose clamp.

Troubleshooting

+ The suction arm is not able to support itself, the handling and positioning of the hood is compromised

Check bolts to see if they’re loose. If so, tighten bolts gradually. Be careful not to overtighten.

+ The pipes break in the proximity of the junction

The bolts of the clutches are tightened too much, to the point of overcoming the resistance of the junctions. Loosen the bolts of the clutches and replace the pipes:
- The forearm tube of connection hood. (Replacement can be done by customer.)
- The part of the pipe where there’s a spring. (Replacement must be done by manufacturer for safety reasons.)

+ Broken hose clamps

There was wear, drilling and/ or abrasion caused by incandescent material extracted by the arm. Remove and replace hose clamps.

+ The fan’s suction arm stops suddenly

There may be a block of electric current. Reactivate the power source of the current.
Check the fuse to see if it’s blown. Replace if necessary.
Check the thermal switch to see if it has tripped. Open the control panel and reset the switch. Investigate the reason for the thermal cutoff.
The engine may have blown. Repair or replace if possible. Refer to appropriate manual.
