Description
WAMFLO ATEX Dust Collectors are designed in accordance with the essential health and safety requisites for equipment meant to be used in potentially explosive atmospheres (ATEX Directive).
They are equipped with a cylindrically shaped stainless-steel casing and flanged bottom ring, which may contain vertically mounted filter elements of various types, such as bags, cartridges and high-efficiency POLYPLEAT.
A compressed air pulse-jet filter element cleaning system is integrated into the hinged top cover or fixed on the connecting top flange.
Increased thickness of the casing improves resistance against explosion.
WAMFLO ATEX Dust Collectors are available with or without suction fan. They come with an integrated modular electronic control panel able to manage cleaning cycles according to the specific requirements of the work process.
Function
The function of the dust collector is to separate dust particles carried in suspension by an air flow using bag-type or pleated filter elements. The dusty air current passes through the filter media, which holds back the dust particles, allowing the air to flow through.
WAMFLO Dust Collectors are configurable for venting, suction and vacuum applications.
