Setting Up Your FilterMate,
Installing 5" Hose and Exhaust
Transition
Move the FilterMate to the location where you want to install it.
Then follow the steps listed below if connecting to a Protector
XVS Ventilation Station or XPert Balance Enclosure.
• If a Protector XVS or XPert Enclosure has been
purchased, place it on a suitable work surface. There
should be no gaps between the work surface and the
bottom of the enclosure.
• Locate the FilterMate within approximately 3-feet (1
meter) of the enclosure. The FilterMate can be located
on the bench, floor or shelf above the enclosure. Insert
the transition (2" x 10" x 5" diameter hose) exhaust
adapter into the exhaust of the enclosure. An alternate
location is on the bottom for concealed exhaust. See
XPert Balance Enclosure and Protector XVS
Ventilation Station Instruction Manual. See Figure 3-2.
• Fasten the transition exhaust adapter to the FilterMate
with two screws provided. See Figure 3-1.
• Place hose over the transition exhaust adapter and
clamp securely with one of the two hose clamps
provided. Place the other end over the inlet port of the
FilterMate and clamp securely.
• The FilterMate should be positioned where it provides
easy access to the blower switch. Refer to Figure 3-2
for concealed exhaust or outside exhaust ducting.
