Grease Viper 4
Installation, Operation, & Service Manual
alternative, the installing contractor should treat the
equipment as required to meet the specic needs.
Detailed discussions of the installation components
are as follows, using a rooftop installation as an
example.
Adjoining Ductwork (not supplied by TRION®)
The ductwork located on the air entering side of the
cabinet, between the point where it penetrates the roof
and the cabinet, must be air tight to prevent the entrance
of moisture, especially if it is under negative pressure.
Ductwork must also be adequately insulated or other
means taken to prevent the formation of condensation
through temperature change. Condensation will short
out the ionizing-collecting cells. Insulation must be of
the outdoor variety.
TRION®Grease Viper Cabinet
The access doors on the Grease Viper cabinet are
gasketed, and the unit is basically sealed against air
leakage. The paint nish (epoxy) is for interior and
exterior use. Like the air-entering duct, the cabinet
must be insulated or other means taken to prevent
condensation from taking place, which results in
electrical shorting of the ionizing-collecting cells.
Insulation, when employed, must be suitable for
outdoor applications and when applied, consideration
given to all access door openings and electrical
interlock box covers.
Control Panel
The control panel is designed for remote mounting
indoors, protected from the elements. If located
outdoors with the cabinet, the control panel must at
a minimum be weather protected. In sub-freezing
climates, the control panel must also be insulated
and/or heat traced to prevent freezing.
Drain Lines
The drain lines, located under the section access
doors at the lowest point of the sectional drain pan,
should be pitched downward and piped with as short
a run as possible to the heated interior of the building
(preferably, straight down from the drain pan supply
through the oor). The recommended drain line trap, to
seal off the cabinet from the drain against the system
pressure, and the drain dump valve should be located
in the heated interior. If not installed in this manner,
heat trace or other means should be employed to
prevent freezing. Clean-outs are recommended to be
installed in all drain lines.
Wash Water Supply Line
The length of the wash water supply line between the
Grease Viper cabinet and the heated building should
be kept to a minimum. Preferably the line would go
through the roof directly below each precipitator
section. The strainer, pressure gauge (by others), and
back ow preventer (by others, if required) should be
installed indoors. Installed in this manner, a dumping
valve can be included in the supply line to drain
the remaining water from the wash manifolds and
prevent freezing. The normally open dump valve will
be energized to close when the water wash solenoid
valve is energized to open. The strainer and solenoid
valve(s) are supplied by TRION®. The dump valve,
back ow preventer, or check valve are to be supplied
by others.
If the above method is not employed, the water supply
line, and drain line must be heat traced and insulated
to minimize the potential for freezing.
Detergent System
The detergent system, designed for remote mounting,
should be installed indoors and piped to the water supply
line within the heated interior. Detergent feed line should
be piped with as short a run as possible and inject into
the wash water supply line as close as possible to the
Grease Viper water wash connection ttings.
Contact the local TRION®representative or the
factory if questions arise or any additional information
is required.
FOR THE INSTALLING CONTRACTOR
1. Unpack and Inspect
At the time the unit is received, all shipping containers
and their contents should be examined for damage.Any
damage occurring in shipment must be immediately
reported to the carrier, an inspection report completed,
and a claim led at the receiving point.
The unit cabinet is shipped completely assembled
and, where size permits, the ionizing-collecting cells
