AeroVent' Standard <br /> ALWAYS wear appropriate personal protective equipment when operating the unit ! <br /> January 2, 2018 <br /> Attn : <br /> Purchaser' s of the Newstripe , <br /> AeroVent 1X, 3X or Standard <br /> Aerosol Can Recycling units Respirator Required Decal <br /> Dear Customer : <br /> We thank you for your purchase of the AeroVent aerosol can recycling unit and apologize for the <br /> inconvenience that may be caused concerning the RESPIRATOR REQUIRED decal on the unit . <br /> Obviously, many companies have comprehensive safety programs in place that would supersede this <br /> decal and it would not be necessary . Unfortunately, many of our customers do not . So, in the interest of <br /> safety, we have chosen to err on the side of caution with regards to those that may not have programs <br /> in place . <br /> For example, the AeroVent X as designed is intended to puncture mostly empty cans , (those exhausted <br /> through normal discharge ) . However, some users have chosen to puncture and drain cans that are close <br /> to full . This quickly exhausts the effectiveness of the carbon filter requiring more frequent filter changes <br /> that may or may not be done . Others have located the unit on a shop floor that is merely 'open <br /> atmosphere' with no fans or HIVAC for additional air movement . These are two examples of when a <br /> respirator should absolutely be worn . <br /> On the other hand , a respirator would not be mandatory if the unit is operated outdoors or in a well <br /> ventilated area and the operator is ' upwind ' of the exhaust port during puncturing or when opening the <br /> lid to insert or remove cans . <br /> We appreciate your understanding of our position and please let us know if we may assist in satisfying <br /> your requirements . <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Ray Krebs 2 0. <br /> General Manager <br /> s, :, ` <br />
