HOW IT WORKS

The Airex Industries Platinum™ Series Dust Collectors stand out from the competition with their ability to filter highly contaminated air in an ultra-compact design. What sets them apart is their advanced compressed air self-cleaning system, which enables continuous filtration of sub-micron dust particles while maintaining consistent differential pressure.

Designed for convenience, the Platinum Series features tool-free doors and a manual cam system, allowing for quick and effortless cartridge replacements.

PRODUCT DETAILS

UNIT OPERATION

Vertical Filtration Principle

The dust-laden gases enter through the side intake of the dust collector’s hopper, under vacuum or pressure (except for bin vents, where the air comes in from the bottom).

BENEFITS

High Filtration Capacity

Models from 2 to 42 cartridges and up to 40,000 CFM capacity.

Custom Engineering

Special needs and custom designs available.

Low Inital Cost

The optimization of our design and assembly techniques allow us to offer highly competitive prices.

Vertical Cartridge Design

Unlike horizontal cartridge designs that reduce filtering surface efficiency by up to 30%, Airex Industries PlatinumTM Series Dust Collectors maintain a 100% filtration rate at all times.

Fast, Simple and Safe Cartridge Replacement

Cartridge replacement is performed outside the dust collector and requires no tools. This eliminates the need to work within a confined space and allows the worker to access the cartridge without getting dirty. The cartridge comes with a rectangular top plate that simplifies manipulation and eliminates potential installation errors.

Continuous Operation

Unlike other types of dust collectors such as the shaker, the cartridge dust collector does not have to be stopped in order to remove and clean dust particles from its filters.

Economical

The cartridge dust collector is an economical choice because it requires minimal maintenance: only periodic cartridge replacement is necessary (depending on the application).

FILTRATION TECHNOLOGY

We Have the Right Filtering Media for Your Needs

In terms of performance, one of the most important criteria during the initial design of a dust collection system is the proper selection of the filtering media.

There are several cartridge models providing adaptation flexibility based on the characteristics of the various types of aerosols. The filtration effectiveness of Airex cartridges can achieve a level equivalent to HEPA, classified as MERV 16. In fact, a single cartridge has a total filtering surface that can reach up to 315 sq. ft. The compact aspect of such a filtering medium makes it a highly prized solution when the available space is limited.

Common Features

End Cap and Gaskets: Our standard end caps are made of galvanized metal (16″ x 14.25″) while our D-Shape gaskets are fabricated with continuous rubber (0.5″ W x 0.625″ H).

Operation Temperature: Cartridges maximum continuous operating temperature is 250 °F (120 °C) while the maximum short term operating temperature can reach up to 295 °F (145 °C).

Weight and Dimensions:

  • Weight : 22 lbs.
  • Height : 36″
  • Outside diameter : 12.75″
  • Inside diameter : 8.3″

ACCESSORIES

Enhance Your Security and Performance

Some options like the SpeedFXTM can vary motor speed and energy consumption thus improving efficiency.

Airex accessories are designed to meet NFPA regulations, providing effective prevention of fire and explosions while protecting workers and facilities.

Fire Protection Accessories

Abort Damper: Connected with a proper spark or fire detection system, the abort damper redirects exhaust air into the atmosphere as soon as a spark is detected.

Blow Back Damper: The Blow Back Damper ensures there is a seal, should a fire or explosion occur within the dust collector, preventing the return of smoke and fire to the shop via the intake ductwork.

Explosion Vents: The explosion vents redirect a propagating flame or explosion to the atmosphere. Pressure-rated washers are used to seal and release the vents.

Rotary Air Lock: Designed to control the flow of discharge material from a dust collector or other type of process while maintaining an air seal.

Spark Detection & Fire Extinguishing Kit: This system counters the spread of fire with a temperature probe and sprinkler, spraying the collector and stopping the blower (eliminating oxygen intake once a set point is reached).

PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE

Use a Proactive Approach to Increase the Lifespan of Your Unit

Like other industrial equipment, a dust collector has an assortment of components that you need to keep an eye on to ensure the unit is operating optimally. If these components are not maintained, the company could find itself in a potentially risky situation in terms of health and safety.

Airex offers a preventive maintenance contract that can increase the useful life of your dust collection system and its accessories. This type of program is also an excellent strategy for avoiding the unforeseeable in terms of breakages and unit stoppages.

By investing in the maintenance of your dust collector, you will also save money by avoiding emergency repair costs that are of course much most onerous over the medium and long term.

Stay Alert for Early Signs of Deterioration

Visual Inspection: Be vigilant to the appearance of corrosion, dust accumulation or even wear and tear of your system.

Variation of Noise and Vibration: Listen for a compressed air leak, fan vibration, or even an unusual sound from your system.

Tracking Operation Parameters: Make sure the performance indicators stay within the prescribed limits of your system.
