FILTEX APC

We specialise in the manufacture and supply of a range of ATEX and Non ATEX Dust Filter Units designed to extract dusts from processes across a variety of applications and industries.Available in a number of configurations that can be tailored to suit the requirements of the collection process including a large range of filter areas, specialist filter medias. Typical industries served include: Wood Workshops Schools & Colleges Wood Yards Chemical Industry Food Related Industries Rubber & Plastic Industry Stone, Clay & Glass Industry Industrial Machinery Metal Working Industry Textile Industry Paint Industry Agricultural Industry.Contaminated air from the dust generation source is drawn through the inlet to the collector by the fan. Initially some pre-separation takes place as heavier dust particles lose momentum and fall into the dust container or hopper. Finer dusts are carried up to the filter elements where they are retained on the outer surface of the filter fabric. The cleaned air is then passed through the filter fabric into the fan chamber and discharged. At the end of the production period the extraction is switched off at the control panel. A timer instigates a delay to allow extraction to come to rest, followed by a 30 - 60 second shaker motor clean cycle, which mechanically oscillates the filter sleeves dislodging the excessive
