Industrial Air Cleaning Systems

Compare each of the INDUSTRIAL AIR CLEANING system listed. Air cleaning by booth dust collectors, industrial cyclone dust collectors, air down draft tables, industrial dust collectors, portable air cleaners and industrial mist collectors are the most significant ones.

Cleaning dust or oil mist particles from industrial air is a requirement that depends on the final application of the air. The most common air cleaning requirement is to remove particles which were generated by a manufacturing process so that the air may be released to the environment and meet federal or local cleanliness standards.

Most commonly, particles are trapped by the pores of the filter material where the particles are larger than the openings in the filter. The filter is a mat of fibers woven or compressed to trap the particles as the air is blown through the filter.

The particles may get trapped on the surface of the filter material or may get trapped once inside the filter material, depending on the type of filter used. As the filter material blocks the particles, the particles build up, reducing the amount of air flow possible through the filter for a given filter area and air pressure. The particles, therefore, have to be removed periodically from the filter. This can be achieved by shaking the filter, or by blowing air backwards..
