class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<p>In foundries, the castings give off toxic fumes, and very hazardous heavy metal particles can be released by the tanks. Since your processes are not always used continuously, this intermittent operation facilitates the capture of harmful substances. A number of risk factors also come into play:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Are your facilities tailored to the deflagration risk associated with certain explosive metals, like aluminum?<\/li>\n<li>What types of particles do your processes release? Do they produce zinc or aluminum dust, which is especially\u00a0<a title=\"\" href=\"\/en\/media-centre\/307-occupational-respiratory-diseases-avoid-biting-the-dust\">harmful to health<\/a>?<\/li>\n<li>Do you have adequate containment and suctioning solutions in place?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<h2 style=\"color: #9c1c20;text-align: left\" class=\"vc_custom_heading vc_do_custom_heading title\" >Are You Aware Of The Risks Associated With Your Processes?<\/h2>\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element wpb_animate_when_almost_visible wpb_bounceInRight bounceInRight\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<p>In addition to the issues of cooling the fumes that enter the dust collector and controlling sparks, the system\u2019s cleanliness is a major challenge in a smelter, especially for the dust collector\u2019s hopper. Particles tend to agglomerate on their walls and can block the passage of materials.<\/p>\n<p>If the outlets are blocked, dust can be pushed in the opposite direction into the dust collector, and even reach the outer walls of the filters. Particles that manage to get through the fabric of the filter media can cause unexpected pressure differences. And that fine situation can cause the dust collector to malfunction, and even emission plumes to escape during the self-cleaning cycles.<\/p>\n<p>One way to remedy this problem is to establish a systematic maintenance program and, if necessary, add suitable attachments.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<div class=\"panel-group panel-icon-plus panel-icon-align-default panel-shape-square\" id=\"accordion-0\" role=\"tablist\" aria-multiselectable=\"true\"><div class=\"panel\" style=\"\"><div class=\"panel-heading\" role=\"tab\" id=\"acc-heading-1453278520348-82ca7492-26b767f7-73e6\"><h4 class=\"panel-title text-default small-margin\"><a data-parent=\"#accordion-0\" class=\"\" role=\"button\" data-toggle=\"collapse\" href=\"#acc-1453278520348-82ca7492-26b767f7-73e6\" aria-expanded=\"true\" aria-controls=\"acc-1453278520348-82ca7492-26b767f7-73e6\"><span>How Can The Risks Be Reduced In Foundries?<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div><div id=\"acc-1453278520348-82ca7492-26b767f7-73e6\" class=\"panel-collapse collapse in\" role=\"tabpanel\" aria-labelledby=\"acc-heading-1453278520348-82ca7492-26b767f7-73e6\"><div class=\"panel-body\">\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element vc_custom_1730754943436\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<p>Your industry must control the particles generated by its operations, for example by capturing the fumes and heavy metal dust with an adequate suctioning system. To reduce the risks of fire or explosion, you must also manage sparks and prevent them from being drawn into the dust collection system, in addition to ensure that the fumes cool down. Whether it\u2019s a steel mill, aluminum smelter or steel smelter, our experts can advise you on choosing a dust collector and put\u00a0preventative measures\u00a0in place tailored to your operations and to the health and safety standards.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"panel\" style=\"\"><div class=\"panel-heading\" role=\"tab\" id=\"acc-heading-1453278704996-2e48d0ff-944d67f7-73e6\"><h4 class=\"panel-title text-default small-margin\"><a data-parent=\"#accordion-0\" class=\" collapsed\" role=\"button\" data-toggle=\"collapse\" href=\"#acc-1453278704996-2e48d0ff-944d67f7-73e6\" aria-expanded=\"true\" aria-controls=\"acc-1453278704996-2e48d0ff-944d67f7-73e6\"><span>What Is The Best Dust Collector For Foundries?<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div><div id=\"acc-1453278704996-2e48d0ff-944d67f7-73e6\" class=\"panel-collapse collapse\" role=\"tabpanel\" aria-labelledby=\"acc-heading-1453278704996-2e48d0ff-944d67f7-73e6\"><div class=\"panel-body\">\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element vc_custom_1722279722623\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<p>Since every smelter has its specific characteristics, there is no one-size-fits-all solution.
