   Non-free Flowing
 
     Collection of non-free flowing or sticky powders and dusts.
 
   Metalworking Chips / Fluids
 
     Collecting metal scraps poses a potential health hazard to fabricated metal workers due to the oils, lubricants, and coolants that must be collected with the metal. Once picked up by an industrial vacuum cleaner, these metalworking fluids (MWFs) emit harmful aerosols that may contaminate the working environment, damage nearby equipment, and make floors slippery.
 
   Reclaim / Recycle
 
     The unit is designed to reclaim, recycle, or recover materials for reuse.
 
   Spill Recovery
 
     Spill recovery units are typically large vehicle transport designed to reclaim or recover large spills.  They are often used in fire, aviation, petrochemical and other industrial applications.
 
   Toxic Media
 
     The unit is capable of filtering toxic materials, such as dust, mist, fume, or smoke from the air
 
   Welding Fumes
 
     The unit is designed specifically for the collection of welding fumes or dust; these may include flux recovery systems.

Performance Specifications




   Airflow
 
     The velocity of the air stream created by the vacuum producer.
 
   Search Logic:      User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria.
   Minimum Particle Size Filtered
 
     The minimum particle size that the unit is capable of filtering.
 
   Search Logic:      All matching products will have a value less than or equal to the specified value.
Separation / Filtration System




          Systems for fine removal may only contain a single filtration system (such as a filter bag or cartridge).  However, most units utilize a primary and secondary separation / filtration system.  Furthermore, some units may have third and fourth stage filtration.  All separation and filtration systems used within the unit should be specified.
   Your choices are...
 
      
 
   Bag-type Units (Baghouse)
 
     A baghouse is an air pollution abatement device used to trap particulate by filtering gas streams through large fabric bags typically made of glass fibers or fabric.
 
   Cartridge-type Units
 
     Filter cartridges are made out of a variety of synthetic fibers and are capable of collecting sub-micronic particles without creating an excessive pressure drop in the system.  Filter cartridges require periodic cleaning.
 
   Cyclone (Centrifugal) Separators
 
     A cyclone separator is an apparatus for the separation, by centrifugal means, of fine particles suspended in air or gas.
 
   Electrostatic Precipitators
 
     Electrostatic precipitators are a type of air cleaner, which charges particles of dust by passing dust-laden air through a strong (50-100 kV) electrostatic field. This causes the particles to be attracted to oppositely charged plates so that they can be removed from the airstream.
 
   Impinger System
 
     A device in which particles are removed by impacting the aerosol particles into a liquid.
 
   Modular Media Type
 
     Modular media type units combine a variety of specific filter modules in one unit.  These systems can provide solutions to many air contaminant problems. A typical system incorporates a series of disposable or cleanable pre-filters, a disposable vee-bag or cartridge filter. HEPA or carbon final filter modules can also be added. Various models are available, including free-hanging or ducted installations, vertical or horizontal mounting, and fixed or portable configurations.
 
   Venturi
 
     A wet scrubber, or Venturi scrubber, is similar to a cyclone but it has an orifice unit that sprays water into the vortex in the cyclone section, collecting all of the dust in a slurry system. The water media can be recirculated and reused to continue to filter the air. Eventually the solids must be removed from the water stream and disposed of.
 
   Wet Spray
 
     Achieves intimate mixing by passing the contaminated gas through a constriction partly submerged in scrubbing liquor. This creates a spray in which particulate material is scrubbed.
 
   Packed Bed / Column
 
     A common type of gas absorber in which scrubbing liquid is dispersed over packed columns containing packing material. This design provides a large surface area for gas-liquid contact.
 
   Dry Injection
 
     An air pollution control system that injects a dry sorbent into an exhaust stream.
 
   Dry Spray
 
     An air pollution control device for removing acid gases where an alkaline slurry is introduced into the gas stream and the pollutants absorb into the droplets and react. The droplets dry in the gas stream leaving particulate matter, which is collected by a downstream particulate control device.
 
   Circulating Fluid Bed
 
     A fluidized bed system that has high air velocities (as high as 30 feet per second) and fine particle sizes.  As a result, the fluid bed is less dense (35 pounds per cubic foot) and has no well-defined top surface.  Large quantities of bed material are recaptured from the gas stream and recirculated back to the furnace to maintain bed inventory.
 
   Other
 
     Other unlisted, specialized, or proprietary configuration.
 
   Search Logic:      All products with ANY of the selected attributes will be returned as matches. Leaving all boxes unchecked will not limit the search criteria for this question; products with all attribute options will be returned as matches.
   Filter Cleaning       
   Your choices are...
 
      
 
   Automatic Shaking (Vibrating)
 
     Automatic (continuous or timed) shaking action provides a back and forth motion.  The shaking action aids separation by spreading the material around the filter and/or bouncing the material.
 
   Manual Shaking
 
     Manual shaking action provides a back and forth motion.  The shaking action aids separation by spreading the material around the filter and/or bouncing the material.
 
   Pulse-jet
 
     Blasts of air used to dislodge particles and clean the filter.
 
   Reverse Air
 
     In the reverse-air technique, air is blown back through the filter material to remove dust.  The compartment must be periodically shut down for the cleaning technique to effectively remove the material from the surface of the fabric filters.
 
   Other
 
     Other unlisted, specialized, or proprietary configuration.
 
   Search Logic:      All products with ANY of the selected attributes will be returned as matches. Leaving all boxes unchecked will not limit the search criteria for this question; products with all attribute options will be returned as matches.
