Appendix A: Site Inspection Checklist 11
ii Universal Debris Removal Cabinet (UDRC) Site Preparation Guide
Introduction
This document provides guidelines for preparing your site for Universal Debris
Removal Cabinet (UDRC)1 installation.
Your Creo service engineer will help you to ensure that your site meets all the
requirements. Proper preparation will help to prevent unnecessary problems and
delays when installing the device.
The following topics are discussed:
鈥? Size, weight, and connections
鈥? Floor space requirements
鈥? Electrical requirements
鈥? Environmental conditions
With your Creo service engineer, complete the Site Inspection Checklist in Appendix
A.
1. The UDRC may be supplied as a part of a Creo CTP system. Unless otherwise spec-
ified, this document refers to all configurations of the UDRC.
2 Universal Debris Removal Cabinet (UDRC) Site Preparation Guide
Equipment Overview
The UDRC works with a Creo output device to extract and filter the airborne
emissions (dust and/or gases) that may be released when imaging certain types of
thermal printing media. The UDRC contributes to a healthier working
environment, consistent image quality, and cleanliness of the imaging device.
The UDRC, depending on configuration, may include filter options tailored to suit
specific qualified media types. The filter options for a particular customer site are
typically specified in a Creo proposal, sales agreement, order form, product
specification, or equivalent document.
New output devices are usually supplied with a filtration unit such as the UDRC. If
the media is changed on an existing output device, it may be necessary to install a
new UDRC or to upgrade an existing one. Site requirements are the same for all
UDRC configurations except for the environmental conditions. Further
information on UDRC configurations and operation can be found in the UDRC
Operator Guide (part number 03-4200C-EN).
Size and Weight
Table 1 shows the maximum dimensions and weight of the UDRC. The
measurements are taken facing the cabinet. Width is in the x-axis direction. Depth
is in the y-axis direction.
For measurements of the crates as shipped, see Table 5.
Table 1: Weight of the UDRC
Width Depth Height Weight
510 mm 600 mm 900 mm 57 kg
(20 in.) (23.5 in.) (35.5 in.) (125 lb.)
Equipment Overview 3
Hose and Data Cable
The UDRC is supplied with a 3 m flexible hose and a 3 m data cable to connect to
the output device. The UDRC must therefore be positioned within 3 m from the
hose and cable attachment point鈥攖ypically at the rear of the output device.
A longer hose and cable (7.6 m) kit can be ordered (part number 518-00323A) so
the UDRC can be located further away from the device if needed.
The hose and data cable should not be routed in a area through which people walk.
The UDRC location should allow for:
鈥? Close proximity to the ventilation exhaust ducts
鈥? Visibility of the cabinet鈥檚 power indicator light
鈥? Accessibility for maintenance and service
Cables, Connectors, and Receptacles
For servicing and in the event of a fire, the appliance inlet is the mains
disconnection point for the UDRC.
Ensure that the branch circuit breakers, power cords, and plug are in compliance
with local electrical standards.
Tables 2 and 3 list the supplied and required power cables, plugs, and receptacles
for the UDRC.

in a free field.
Site Requirements 5
Site Requirements
Environmental Conditions
The operating environment for the Universal Debris Removal Cabinet (UDRC)
device must be:
Temperature: 17o鈥?32oC (63o鈥?90oF)
Elevation: up to 2225 m (7300 ft.)
Relative humidity: 20%鈥?70% for particulate filtration
30%鈥?70% for particulate and chemical filtration
WARNING: Relative humidity that is lower than the specified level may result in gaseous
emissions breaking through before a chemical filter is replaced. This may lead to exposure
to airborne emissions in excess of applicable regulatory limits and to possible discomfort,
illness, injury, and/or disability.
CAUTION: Failure to comply with operating environment requirements may cause the
UDRC to malfunction.
Floors
The floor must be level, with a maximum incline or waviness of 5 mm (0.2 in.)
across the footprint of the UDRC.
Electrical
To ensure that all branch circuits are at the same ground potential, the dedicated
branch circuit for the following components must be supplied from the same AC
supply panel:
鈥? Output device main power
鈥? External chiller power (if applicable)
鈥? Workstation main power
鈥? UDRC
Note: All requirements for power quality outlined in the Site Preparation Guide for the
output device must be maintained.
6 Universal Debris Removal Cabinet (UDRC) Site Preparation Guide
Heat Output
The UDRC dissipates heat at a maximum rate of 1500 W (5125 BTU/hr.).
The heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC) system serving the room in
which the UDRC is installed must be able to accommodate the additional heat
load.
Ventilation
No filtration can be 100% efficient (for example, carbon monoxide is not captured
by Creo filters). That is why outdoor air ventilation is required with the debris
removal system. Air exhaust vents (where air is drawn out of the room) should be
located as close to the debris removal cabinet and output device as possible.
The Universal Debris Removal Cabinet (UDRC) device requires a minimum of 1.1
m3/min (40 cfm)1 outdoor air ventilation. This air ventilation prevents the
accumulation of airborne emissions that may be released when certain media are
imaged.2
Outdoor air ventilation must not be confused with air circulation in the room that
results from temperature control or humidity control. Outdoor air ventilation may
be roughly estimated to be 10% to 30% of the air circulation rate in the room. To
achieve adequate air mixing, Creo recommends at least 3 ACH (air changes per
hour).
These recommendations apply to a single device with no other equipment in the
room. Other imaging equipment, processors, ovens, HVAC systems, and so on,
may contribute additional emissions to the work environment, increasing the
amount of outdoor air ventilation required.
The customer is responsible for assessing the level of airborne emissions in the
room to ensure that, upon installation of the Universal Debris Removal Cabinet
(UDRC), the requirements of local, state, provincial, regional, and national
regulations for occupational health and safety are satisfied. In the event of any
uncertainty about the levels of airborne emissions, the customer should arrange for
an indoor air quality assessment to be conducted by a qualified industrial hygienist.
1. This is a default value. Certain media may require higher ventilation; to check the
recommended value for specific media, please refer to CTP Media Imaging
Performance Database (available from your Creo representative), where it will be
specified if different from default.
2. Information on the hazardous compounds released by a particular media during
imaging should be available from the media manufacturer鈥檚 Material Safety Data Sheet
or equivalent document.
Site Requirements 7
External Venting for Debris Removal System
If the external venting option is chosen for the debris removal system, the piping
connected to the end of the debris cabinet hose shall be limited to one of three:
2 in. pipe (maximum Schedule 40)
1.
鈥? maximum length = 45 m (150 ft.)
鈥? maximum number of 90o bends/elbows = 1 per 3 m (10 ft.)
OR
2 1/2 in. pipe (maximum Schedule 40)
2.
鈥? maximum length = 105 m (350 ft.)
鈥? maximum number of 90o bends/elbows = 1 per 3 m (10 ft.)
OR
3 in diameter or larger ducting
3.
鈥? maximum length = 240 m (800 ft.)
鈥? maximum number of 90o bends/elbows = 1 per 3 m (10 ft.)
Note: Option 3 is not recommended due to sealing issues. It may be used if there is an
exhaust fan installed that ensures a vacuum within the ductwork at all times (the minimum
flow of the exhaust fan must be greater than 35 SCFM).
The piping material may be galvanized steel, painted carbon steel, PVC, or a similar
suitable material.
All joints and unions from the hose coupling to the exhaust/exit of the external
venting piping shall be properly sealed along their length to prevent ingress or
egress or any gas or liquid. Before initial startup, it is recommended that a pressure
test be performed to ensure that this requirement is met.
The exhaust/exit of the external venting piping will be free to the exterior of the
building, without any restrictions. Adequate non-restrictive weather protection
shall be installed as required. The exit of the external venting piping must be
regulated to ensure that no flow occurs when the debris cabinet is not in operation
(i.e., back-flow prevention).
The customer shall supply a coupling to connect the external venting piping with
the 1.5 in ID hose from the debris cabinet. This coupling should install by simply
slipping the hose over a braided section of it and securing it with a hose clamp.
Connecting to an Existing Ventilation System
If the customer already has a ventilation system that exhausts to the exterior of the
building (such as a processor exhaust system), the venting piping for the debris
system may be joined to it. The end of the debris system venting pipe should be
mated to the exhaust vent upstream of the ventilation fan, as follows:
INLET FROM
PROCESSOR VENTING FAN EXTERIOR
DEBRIS CABINET
The limitations on pipe length described above apply.
8 Universal Debris Removal Cabinet (UDRC) Site Preparation Guide
WARNING: The exhaust fan for processor ventilation must be ON at the same as the
debris removal system is ON (i.e., whenever the imaging device is operating). Failure to
ensure this may result in air that has not been chemically treated entering the facility.
