PORTABLE FILTRATION UNIT

Lev-co announces a new model of their Mobi-Flex portable filtration unit. In addition to all the standard features like portability, flexible extraction arm, washable spun-bound 99% efficiency polyester filter, there is the addition of a HEPA after-filter to address OSHA's new regulation regarding hexavalent chromium. The HEPA filter has up to 99.97% efficiency @ 0.3 microns. The new Mobi-Flex with HEPA after-filter has been especially designed for all manufacturing processes involving the welding of stainless steel.

RUGGED METAL FAN

The OA109AP Series 120mm AC fan with metal blades was specifically designed for harsh, rugged environments. The 115VAC fan is an economical cooling solution for chemical, process control and industrial environments. Because plastic fan blades can be susceptible to severe conditions such as high temperatures or chemical gases, metal fan blades are preferred in harsh environment applications for their durability.

DUST COLLECTOR

The new Intelli-Touch™ Energy Savings Control Panel reduces energy consumption with a built-in variable frequency drive that automatically controls motor RPM based on CFM needed at the running static pressure. The Intelli-Touch™ also utilizes a soft start and ramp up of motor speed which eliminates sudden surges of power usage. All settings are controlled easily at the touchscreen. All functions of the dust collector are continually monitored by Intelli-Touch™ with a built-in diagnostics feature that tracks pertinent data, allowing the dust collector to continually operate at maximum efficiency and providing longer filter life, reduced compressed air usage, quieter operation with lower fan speeds, and elimination of external dampers and slide gates in ductwork. Application-specific (plasma, laser, wood-working, etc.) set-up feature reduces installation time.

CEILING FANS

The PowerfoilPlus High-Volume / Low-Speed (HVLS) Ceiling Fan uses hybrid airfoil technology that redirects airflow away from the floor, creating a more widespread air pattern capable of passing over obstructions. The new fan can deliver more effective coverage where facilities need it most: on their occupants. Instead of pushing air straight down, the upturned length at the end of the airfoil pushes air out at an angle. Not only can air moving at this higher angle easily pass over floor obstructions, but it also spreads farther across a space.

FUME CAPTURE

Eurovac's self-locking arms provide effective methods for the capture of fumes. Contaminants are removed at their source. The use of self-supporting joints, flexible hoses and smooth bore tubing allows for easy placement of the arm's hood near the source of a problem. Fume arms are fabricated of steel with cast aluminum joints which include friction discs and are fully adjustable to the worker's desired tension. The arms include a handle which completely encircles the hood in order to facilitate easy repositioning from all sides. Applications include: all welding processes; glue fumes, grinding dusts and most airborne dusts; soldering fumes; chemical applications such as laboratories.

CCS SYSTEM

The CCS (Cloud Chamber System) technology has proven to efficiently treat ultrafine and submicron particulate simultaneously with gases. It is seen as the first technology to achieve high removal efficiencies operating at the flow volumes typical for large diesel engines. CCS is effective air pollution control for any exhaust application that produces coarse, fine or ultrafine particles, such as those contained in stationary diesel engine exhaust. CCS systems are manufactured in capacities to 300,000 cfm and larger. Applications in addition to diesel exhaust include power and steam production, glass manufacturing, fiber optic manufacturing, smelting, chemical processing, microelectronics fabrication, waste incineration, and dryers, ovens and rotary kilns used throughout industry.

MIST COLLECTOR FILTERS

CECO filters cut operating costs and maintenance for mist elimination with longlife centralized CECO Mist Collector (CMC) systems. The CMC "boxed solution" collectors allow effluent from multiple operations, even plant-wide, to be treated at one location. In turn, captured liquids and particulates can be efficiently collected for disposal or reprocessing. Horizontal design with side-door access to filters eliminates the need for overhead clearance, simplifying indoor installation where desired and enabling the system to be located on a mezzanine to free up floor space. CMC collectors are widely used for treating machining mist.

BENCH DUST COLLECTOR

The SDB downdraft bench dust collector is designed for applications where workers need an integrated collection area and work surface. With a downdraft velocity of up to 100 feet per minute and air volumes up to 2,500 CFM, the SDB captures the smoke, dust and powders resulting from a variety of manufacturing operations including grinding, polishing, hand sanding and dry buffing. By drawing particles and contaminants away from the worker's breathing zone, the SDB protects workers. Removing the pollutant particles close to the source also prevents dust from migrating to areas with sensitive electrical and mechanical equipment, reducing facility maintenance.

INDUSTRIAL COOLING VEST

Vortec's Personal Air Conditioners (PAC's) use a compressed air supply and vortex tube to keep workers comfortable in extremely hot environments. With no moving parts, the vortex tube spins compressed air to force a simple heat exchange that produces cold air to 60°F below the inlet temperature. The small vortex tube, worn on a supplied belt, is connected to Vortec's Diffuse-Air Vest which has a perforated lining to provide cooled air delivery over the upper body. Temperature is easily adjusted by turning a knob on the vortex tube. Both large and extra-large vests are available each featuring a collar that can be unfolded to deliver tempered air flow to the neck and face.
