Dust collectors

A dust collection unit is an effective unit used for air purification in production workshops. It purifies the air independently or using additional devices and returns it to the room. The use of dust collectors can significantly reduce the risk of occupational diseases and extend the service life of expensive industrial equipment.

Device and principle of operation

The most popular dust collectors are the cyclone type, the design of which includes a cylindrical or conical body, an incoming air flow pipe and a clean air pipe, and a dust bin.

Dust collection systems operate as follows:

• when large and heavy mechanical particles enter the working chamber of the unit, under the influence of inertial forces they settle in the lower part of the filter chamber;
• small particles settle on the walls and then fall into the dust collector;
• The purified air is sent for further purification to other devices or immediately returned to the internal space.

Classification of dust collection units

Depending on the method of eliminating pollutants from air masses, the following types of industrial dust collection units are distinguished:

• Dry. Dry dust collectors are the most common option used in various industries.
• Wet. Such installations are necessary for operation in specific production conditions, which are characterized by high humidity, fire and explosion hazards. Units with wet cleaning technology contain a water filter and an irrigation system.

Parameters taken into account when choosing a dust collection unit

The power and other characteristics of dust collection installations are calculated using standard methods at the stage of design or reconstruction of the facility. Initial data:

• room volume;
• the nature and size of the impurities that the dust collector must neutralize;
• type, quantity and layout of technological equipment, its performance.

If it is necessary to purify large volumes of air masses, it is necessary to purchase and install several industrial dust collection units in parallel.

Areas of use

In accordance with the requirements of sanitary and hygienic standards, dust collection units must be installed:

• in workshops that have metal-cutting, sharpening, grinding, polishing machines;
• in rooms with woodworking machines, sandblasters, crushing plants;
• at facilities where bulk materials are sorted, loaded, and packaged;
• at cement industry enterprises.

The absence of dust collectors in premises where their installation is required is punishable by fines and the possibility of production shutdown.
