Powder Hopper Loaders 
Installation & Setup 
 
4-1 Safety 
Considerations 
;  Connect the hopper loader to a grounded three-prong power 
receptacle. If this is not possible, ground the hopper loader 
motor for electrical isolation and protection from electric 
shock. 
;  Do not use hopper loaders in explosive atmospheres. 
;  Do not use outdoors or in wet environments. Moisture damages 
the motor and can create an electric shock hazard. 
;  Operate hopper loaders at the rated voltage. Operation at other 
than design voltage can result in, at best, poor performance, 
and can cause damage to the vacuum motor, control, and 
personnel.

4-3  Mounting Powder Hopper Loaders 
Important! 
You can mount your powder hopper loader directly to the 
processing machine by cutting a hole in the machine bin lid 
and fastening the hopper loader to it. The hopper loader 
mounting flange mates with ACS equipment and uses the 
same mounting holes as previous ACS models. 
 
For new installations or mounting on other manufacturer’s 
equipment, a hole location template is included in the information 
packet.
