1. What is it?

Ducted Air Cleaners are used in a variety of applications where the filter selection often requires a specific configuration. With these collectors, you can select a variety of particulate, liquid or gas phase filters such as “HEPA” filters, “Mist Agglomerators”, and “Gas Absorbers” respectively. These systems are available with or without pre-engineered and installed fan packages. 

Here are some general design velocities when using "CAPTURE" Hoods: 

Smoke (e.g. Welding):

  • Capture Velocity 100 FPM
  • Transport Velocity 3000 FPM
  • Minimum Face Velocity 2355 FPM

Dust (e.g. Grinding):

  • Capture Velocity 500 FPM
  • Transport Velocity 4000 FPM
  • Minimum Face Velocity 4000 FPM

Gas (e.g. V.O.C.'s):

  • Capture Velocity 50 FPM
  • Transport Velocity 2000 FPM
  • Minimum Face Velocity 785 FPM

Mist:

  • Capture Velocity 100 FPM
  • Transport Velocity 2250 FPM
  • Minimum Face Velocity 1766 FPM
3. Will it Make my Workplace Safer?

Yes, but only when systems are configured, installed, and maintained for the correct use application. Choosing the right filter is essential for ensuring the reliability, effectiveness, and safety of your unit.

6. Preventing the Spread of Airborne Fumes and Chemicals

Industrial workers are exposed to a variety of health hazards every day. As a result, these workers risk the possibility of becoming sick, ill, and in some cases, permanently disabled. According to a WHO estimate (WHO, 2000), unintentional poisonings led to 300,000 deaths in the year 2000. 

This is our mission, but it will only succeed if we use and configure the right equipment. Our team works to make the logistics of those questions as straightforward and coherent as possible, and as such, will work with you to provide you with the best extraction system that fits your worker's needs. This includes everything from accessibility and usability to longevity and reliability.
