Dust Collectors

A Dust Collecter is a powerful air filtration system designed to remove dust and particles from the air in factories and industrial settings. It uses a “pulse” of air to clean the filters automatically, ensuring they stay effective and don’t get clogged. This type of dust collector helps improve air quality, keep the workplace safe, and comply with environmental regulations.

Key Features:

• Automatic Filter Cleaning: Uses bursts of air to clean filters and keep them working efficiently.
• High Efficiency: Traps fine dust particles, providing cleaner air.
• Low Maintenance: Easy to service, saving time and reducing downtime.
• Durable: Built to last in tough industrial environments.
• Energy Efficient: Saves energy while maintaining high performance.
• Flexible Design: Available in various sizes to fit different needs.

Air Knife

What is it?

An air knife is a pressurized air plenum with a uniform continuous gap which pressurized air exits in a laminar flow pattern. The exiting air velocity creates an impact air velocity directly onto the surface of the product to shear away moisture or particulates without mechanical contact. This impact air velocity can range from a gentle breeze to greater than 40,000 feet per minute.

Advantages

• Low energy consumption
• Dry, clean, oil-free air stream
• Filtered blower inlet to prevent particle contamination
• Safe, low pressure
• Increased production speeds and output for a quick payback
• Reduced sound levels when compared to compressed air nozzle or round tube design
