WHAT IS AN ELECTRONIC AIR-CLEANER


Electronic air cleaners /Electrostatic Precipitators (Scrubbers) are most versatile method of cleaning the air, and capable for removing extremely small size of smoke, soot, mist and dust particles from the air up to 0.01 micron sizes. These are removed from the air by charging the particles and then passing through a collector section where they are arrested, and held in HT filtering cells.. Advantages of electronic air cleaners include low airflow resistance, less noise and no filter replacement needed and power consumed is hardly 50watts for 3000cfm of air handling.

Overhead, Ambient & Portable Air Cleaners for Welding

Welding Smoke and Weld Fumes

Problem: New Appreciation of Health Hazards from Welding

Advances in welding technologies have been accompanied with a new appreciation of the health hazards associated with common welding processes such as SMAW (stick), FCAW (Flux core) and GMAW (MIG). These hazards can present exposure concerns even when welding on common carbon steel. Recent research has identified problems with exposures to manganese, chromium, nickel and other potentially toxic metals in welding fume. OSHA has recently promulgated a new regulation focused on the carcinogen, hexavalent chromium (CrVI or Cr6+). These health hazards, along with the understandable reluctance on the part of welders to wearing a respirator under the welding hood, mean that better approaches to removing welding fumes from the welder’s breathing zone are required.

Solution: Practical Engineering Controls

Industrial air cleaners provide a wide range of options both in terms of air cleaning technology and welding safety equipment. We offer three air cleaning technologies suitable for welding fume extraction. Electrostatic feature permanent collector cells which offer high filtration efficiency along with the advantages of eliminating ongoing filter replacement costs. Some applications are best served by conventional media filtration and we offer several options using this technology: inexpensive bag filters, extended service manipulated filters and, when required, HEPA filters. When long maintenance intervals at high fume loading are the driving factors, our reverse pulse cartridge systems are the answer in these high production applications. Each of these three technologies (electrostatic, conventional media and cartridge) is available in portable, ambient (general background) or overhead ducted configurations.

Portable fume extraction systems like the VitalAir,ECB1000 & ECB2400 are ideal for welders on the move. Ambient (sometimes referred to as general background) air cleaners work well for dispersed welding stations. Overhead ducted filtration systems provide the advantages of source capture while conserving expensive floor space. Also remember the importance of proper placement of the source capture arm to welding arc.

Please review our product information and work with our application professionals to identify the correct solution to meet your requirements in your welding or other industrial environment.

Fume Extraction System for Soldering Fumes


#

HEPA filtration, stopping 99.97% of all particles 0.3 microns or greater. This is the most protective filter available and is specified by OSHA for use with lead or cadmium. The Fume Extractors® triple filtration fume extraction systems includes two stages of mechanical filtration followed by a third stage of activated charcoal (carbon) for control of gaseous contaminants. All three filtration stages are independent allowing for maximum use of air cleaners. In addition to providing the benefits of Triple Filtration, the FumeExtractors® offers maximum filtration capacity for fume extraction. While other manufacturers offer only 15 to 20 square feet of filter area, the FumeExtractors® provides a generous 82 square feet of filter area; the maximum available in its class. This translates into maximum filter life and value. The FumeExtractors® also comes with a Activited Carbon filters for competitive units. This also translates into minimum maintenance and maximum cost effectiveness.

The FumeExtractors® fume extraction system is designed for use with one or two arms, but if you desire a central air cleaner system for your multiple soldering stations, we also offer modular systems to handle larger requirements. These fume extraction systems also feature true HEPA air filtration and may be used with up to 20 soldering stations and are available with up to a 5 hp motor.

Electrostatic Precipitator And Media Mist Collector Technology For Nuisances & Process Dust

General Air Cleaners for Nuisance & Process Dust:

Indian Air Filters & Air Quality Engineering USA offers several different types and sizes of ambient air cleaners. We manufacture general air filtration systems that utilize electrostatic precipitator technology, multistage mechanical filters (including, but not limited to HEPA filters) and self-cleaning, reverse pulsing cartridge style dust collectors. Auto Cleaning Air Cleaner are as optional .All ambient air cleaners and dust collector systems from IAFCO &AQE are designed with the appropriate motor/blower combination and filters to provide the optimum balance in high quality components, low initial purchase price and low operating costs to create the best value.

What is Ambient Air Cleaning?


Ambient or background air cleaning refers to applying air cleaners to generally clean the entire air volume of a room or building. This approach is frequently utilized when it is not possible to link the filtration system to a specific process or to a specific location. Examples would include facilities such as large warehouses where it’s not possible to identify an individual source or in facilities where the contaminant generators are highly mobile such as portable welders.

How do I select or size the appropriate ambient air cleaning system?


The most important factors when selecting the proper ambient air cleaner are the cost per cfm of delivered airflow and the square footage of media. Some manufacturers advertise the “free air” number (sometimes without indicating this is the “free air” rating) as opposed to the delivered airflow. Also, just as important is the type of blower utilized – a forward curved blower can not retain airflow against a significant rise in static pressure. A backwards inclined blower wheel will be more resilient in airflow as the filters get dirty requiring less frequent filter replacements. Proper sizing needs to take many factors into account including the dirt loading, ceiling height, layout of your facility and more. We recommend contacting us and talking directly to an air cleaning professional to assist you in proper sizing and selection of your electrostatic precipitator or media mist collector unit.

HOW AIR ELECTROSTATIC AIR CLEANER WORKS


Contaminated air is drawn by the motor/blower through a washable metal mesh pre-filter which traps large dust particles. The remaining particles, some as small as 0.01 microns, pass into a strong electrical field (ionizing section) where the particulate receives an electrical charge. The charged particles then pass into a collector plate section made up of a series of equally spaced parallel plates. Each alternate plate is charged with the same polarity as the particles, which repel, while the interleaving plates are grounded, which attract and collect the contaminants. The contaminants are held in these plates until they are washed away. Indian Electronic Air Cleaners traps both wet and dry particulates.

how-it-works

 

  • The Fan Blower first draws in contaminated air through a washable pre-filter, which traps larger particles.
  • Smaller particles as small as 0.01 microns passes through a strong electrical field (ionizing section) of permanent stainless steel spike system where particles receive an electrical charge.
  • The charge particles then passes into a collector plate section made up to series of collecting plates equality spaced normally 7mm apart or designed spacing depending on HT Voltage selection ionizing / collecting voltages to achieve 95% efficacy down to 0.01 micron size dust particles arresting with single pass.
  • Each alternative plates is charged with same polarity as the particles, which repel, the interleaving plates are grounded, which attract and collect the contamination.
  • IAFCO Series (ESP) Models of Air Cleaners trap both wet & dry particulate. The particulate are held in these plates until are washed away.

FOUR MAJOR EFFECT

POLLUTION


Over about 10000 tons of air borne particulate matter descents in city (e.g. Bombay) alone each day much of which is man-made and toxic-oil, soot tar, lead, automobile exhaust etc. Even through with our efficient defense mechanisms of the respiratory tracts. It is most vulnerable access point to the human body through which the majority of infections enter

It is researched and developed by M/s. Indian Air Filters Co. the most comprehensive range of specialist air-care equipment in India. This totally unique and highly efficient product a Micro Air-processor

Other “Air Cleaners” employing fabric filters simply “sieve” the air of some of its visible particles. The “Status Model” or micro air-processor ensures that particles of all sizes down to less than 0.01 micron which includes cigarette smoke, pollen and bacteria etc. are collected efficiently.

It is well known that Electrostatic Precipitation technique is used extensively in industry wherever the most in clinical cleanliness is required Activated carbon filters are also well proven for odour absorbing is concerned But it is liberal addition of negative ions which makes this our product a truly unique one

Negative IONS


Apart from their natural freshness negative ions :

  1. Have lethal effect on bacteria – powerfully reducing cross infection
  2. Relive Stress – including headaches, insomnia, irritability and some type migraine
  3. Relive ‘hystamine’ and seratonin’ –based conditions – including hay fever, rhinitis, asthma and bronchitis
  4. Increase and prolong concentration –overcoming afternoon lethargy and premature fatigue
  5. Suppress annoying static charges on plastics, fabrics and VDU screens – all of which in drastic loss of natural negative ions

This all is then crammed in Single- A miracle of technological air-care consuming hardly 60 watts of light bulb

Application


The self contained Air cleaner is mounted in the room or areas where the air is to be cleaned. It is especially suited for service in buildings or rooms where existing air circulation is limited or where installation of a central system air cleaner would be impractical.

One every common application for the self-contained air cleaner is the removal of smoke from the air in Bars, lounges, restaurants and bowling alley. It is also used in a variety of other applications such as beauty shops, kitchen. Club rooms, hospitals and for clean rooms Because it provides its own air circulations, the IAFCO self cleaner may be used in almost any application requiring the removal of airborne particulate contamination from an enclosed space

Outdoor Air


One of the benefits to be excepted from use of the self contained electronics air cleaner is reduction in the amount of outdoor air brought into the building, Typically, the use of the outdoor air, at rates upto air changes per hour is recommended to replenish oxygen and no dilute and remove airborne contamination particularly smoke.

The ASHRAE standard 62-76, natural and mechanical gives recommended outdoor air quantities ventilation in terms of 100% out door air. These recommended outdoor quantities may be reduced to 35%-50% of the specified quantities may be reduced to 35-50% of the specified quantities air cleaners is provided. However the standard recommends that in no case shall the outdoor air quantity be less than 5 c.f.m. (0.2 m/min) per person. The standard 30 to 40 c.f.m. (about 1m3/min) ventilation air per person where people are smoking, such as a cocktail lounge. This is to ensure acceptable air quality.

The difference between ventilation air and oxygen replenishment air represents the potential can be achieved by a system that reduce particulate and gaseous contaminates to within the ASHRAE recommend limits.

The IAFCO clean air device helps to provide this clean recirculated air by removing particulated contamination i.e. VISIBLE SMOKE. The reduction in outdoor air used of course, means a reduction in the amount of heating or cooling required. This reduces both operating cost & equipment wear.
