Camfil APC

Dust, Mist and Fume Collection

METALWORKING

PHARMACEUTICAL & BIOTECH

Camfil APC can design and implement a welding fume collector system that is cost-saving and reliable, by combining ACGIH guidelines with their in-field experience and filtration technology. It’s crucial to follow OSHA exposure guidelines for metals to prevent long-term health effects. Metalworking fluids used in machining generate mists that need to be controlled to prevent worker health problems and comply with regulations. Mist collectors effectively remove oils and coolant from the air, protecting workers’ health and safety in machining centers.

Camfil dust collection experts are knowledgeable in the toxicological properties of pharmaceutical dusts and potent compounds, and can perform a risk-based exposure evaluation to determine the proper method of dust control. To prevent deflagration from combustible dust, explosion protection equipment such as explosion venting, chemical suppression, and isolation systems may be recommended by Camfil APC to meet the requirements and standards needed in a pharmaceutical space.

FOOD & BEVERAGE

AUTOMOTIVE

The food processing industry transforms raw agricultural products into the food we eat every day, using dust collection to manage dried food ingredients from coarse grains to fine spices and additives. Camfil APC provides high-efficiency dust collection solutions, including the Gold Series industrial dust collector with spun-bond Dura-Pleat® cartridges, for sticky dusts like sugars and whey, and turnkey solutions for canning lines.

The automotive industry’s many manufacturing processes require products that meet their specific needs, and we offer flexible and modular equipment to help manufacturers keep their employees safe, comply with air quality regulations, and maintain productivity. Our mist collectors help control metalworking fluids to prevent worker accidents and health problems, while our dust and fume collectors meet ACGIH guidelines to capture dust, smoke, and fumes generated during metalworking. We also offer special solutions for battery production, which can release combustible and/or toxic particles into the air.

MINING

Mining processing equipment such as crushing, screen, and conveyor transfer points produce high levels of dust emissions which must be controlled to meet regulatory requirements, protect personnel, and reduce wear and tear on production equipment. The Gold Series industrial dust collector is specifically designed to meet the requirements of the mining industry for efficient filtration of 2.5 and 10 micron size particulate matter, and Camfil APC’s Gold Cone cartridge filter offers a unique solution that works well in harsh mining environments.

GRAIN & SEED

Grain and food processing facilities produce dangerous airborne dusts that can cause harm to workers and require regulatory compliance. To ensure worker safety and a clean work environment, dust must be captured and contained by constantly filtering the dust-laden air through a dust collection system and safely contained so combustible dust explosions do not occur.

CHEMICAL PROCESSING

Chemical manufacturing processes can create dangerous airborne dusts that are toxic and combustible, posing risks to workers, equipment, and the environment. Industrial dust collection systems are a cost-effective way to improve air quality and maintain workplace safety. Camfil APC offers premium dust collectors that can safely capture and contain various types of chemical dust, including toxic and combustible dusts.

PACKAGING MATERIALS

Dust particles generated during the manufacture of paperboard, metal cans, and plastic containers must be captured and contained to prevent occupational exposure risks and combustible dust explosions. Dust collection systems effectively filter out the particles, making packaging production facilities safer and cleaner. Camfil APC’s well-designed and maintained dust collection systems cost-effectively capture and contain all dust generated in packaging material manufacturing.
