Description

The Donaldson Torit DCE DFPRO collectors are dust and fume collection systems specifically engineered for various applications including plasma, autogenous and laser cutting. DFPRO collectors use oval filters making dust and fume filtration more efficient, compact and cost-effective.

DFPRO 16 Main Features

  • Flow rates up to 18,000 m³/h
  • 16 filter cartridges. Ultra web filter area of 282.4m²
  • 18.5kW / 25Hp
  • “Plug and Go” unit
  • Closed coverage type (complete system) and quiet operation.
  • High performance oval-shaped cartridge filters and efficient filter media.
  • Fast and easy installation, easy maintenance with quick-access filters.
  • Energy cost saving due to low energy requirements.

Unique Oval-Shaped Cartridge Filters Contribute to Higher Airflow Capacity

The DFPRO oval-shaped filters, in conjunction with our innovative nanofiber filter media, trap more dust on the surface of the filter than conventional commodity types of filter media such as depth-loading cellulose, polyester or cellulose/polyester blend. Oval-shaped filters handle up to 25% more airflow than traditional circular-shaped filters without increasing velocities to ensure efficient dust control. 

DFPRO Cartridge Dust Collectors Features and Advantages 

  • Fully integrated system with damper valve, 18.5kW fan motor, factory prewiring, cleaning mechanism and Torit control board.
  • No extra duct work between unit and fan. 
  • Cleaning mechanism protected from external elements. 
  • Self-centering with a handle for easy changes. 
  • Corner installation is possible. 
  • Quick-release dust disposal system. 
  • Flat side walls.
  • Outside installation possible. 
  • Lower pressure drop spark trap.

Option to install an ATEX rated explosion relief panel if required at an approximate cost of £1,000

How do Dust Extractors Work?

Dust collection systems work in a variety of different ways but all have general principles in common. They draw process dust and particulates from the air through a filter that first captures and separates the matter, and then discharges decontaminated air back into the workplace or environment.

Dust extractors are used in many different and varied industries and so different demands are made of them; however all have common components such as a blower (or fan), dust filter, filter cleaning system, dust container and dust removal system.

Five common types of dust collection equipment are fabric filter baghouses, inertial separators (like mechanical cyclones), cartridge collectors, wet scrubbers, and electrostatic precipitators.

What is Dry Dust Extraction?

The most popular dust extraction method, dry dust extractors collect dust using filters and cartridges. Known for processing large volumes of air when filtering medium/large dust particles such as wood, flour, and metals.

They typically include a cleaning system to discharge the dust gathered within the filters and cartridges, they carry out a shaker cycle or reverse pulse cycle to free the collected dust and empty it into a removable storage bin.

Factors to Consider for Your Next Dust Extractor

When implementing the safety measures to ensure minimal risk to your workers, the factors to consider when purchasing your extraction unit/system are:

  • Dust Source - Does the process that produces dust occur in an enclosed or open area?
  • Capacity - Does the extractor have a large enough filter area required to handle the volume of dust?
  • Type of Dust – Do you need an extractor capable of handling dust at risk of self-igniting?
  • Maintenance – Would a self-cleaning extractor with an automatic shaker cycle be more suitable for you?

For further guidance, find out how to carry out your own COSHH (Control of Substances Hazardous to Health) risk assessment at the HSE website to help calculate your requirements.

What are Cartridge Dust Collectors?

Cartridge Dust Collectors a type of filter unit which is predominantly used in environments where space is at a premium. They can often maintain airflows which remain comparable to larger baghouse units.

Cartridge units provide larger fabric filter areas into a smaller place, use less filters and can be changed from the outside of the extractor, rather than having to access the unit internally, thus reducing filter replacement times and less environmental contamination issues for maintenance staff.

They are ideal for commercial and industrial environments, whose processes produce very fine-to- moderate dust-like powders, metalworking, woodworking, fume collection, thermal spraying, among other processes.

Importance of Dust Extractors

Dust in the workplace can affect product quality and employee´s health. Having a dust-free environment is essential to the health and safety of the workforce. Not only does it affect the health of employees but the dust covers the equipment affecting production processes and quality of the products. 

Capturing the dust at the source prevents it from spreading, done by using a dust extractor system to facilitate the important housekeeping to avoid it from accumulating.
