Explosion relief vents are designed into a dust collector as a “controlled weak point”.  In the event of a deflagration within the dust collector, the explosion relief vent will both relieve the pressure, flames and dust, to a designated location away from people and equipment.   Part Numbers:  NOTE:  The above design calculations are provided for equipment selection guidance only.  Final..

Many dust collection systems are located inside a building or another area where standard explosion venting cannot safely be employed. For these applications, flameless explosion vents may be the best protection solution. The flameless vent consists of a venting device with an integrated flame arrester. When an explosion occurs, the venting device opens and directs the vented explosion through the.. Read more

Chemical suppression systems are often used when there is not a safe location to vent an explosion or if the dust is harmful or toxic.  They are designed to detect and neutralize fires and explosions at an early stage which prevents the pressure to rise above the strength of the dust collector.  A control panel continuously monitors explosion pressure detectors..

Explosion isolation valves are installed on the inlet of a dust collector to prevent propagation of a dust explosion through ductwork.  They are held open by normal airflow and will slam shut when reverse pressure hits, which isolates a deflagration within a dust collector. Part Numbers:  Includes:      Optional Additions

A rotary airlock can be mounted to the dust collection discharge cone to transfer captured particulate to the canister below, while maintaining an air seal in the dust collection system.  Eurovac designs the airlock that is best suited for the type and volume of particulate that is being captured.  We ensure it meters dust at a controlled rate to prevent..

A broken filter / bag detector will identify when a cartridge or bag filter has torn or failed.  When a filter breaks, dust escapes into the clean air stream, which can lead to environmental issues, product loss and equipment damage.  It is typically mounted to the outlet of the dust collection separator.   Part Numbers:  Equipment Specs:      Includes:
