The term inline filter refers to an expandable, bolted, modular system. Depending on requirements, appropriate filter and air injection sections are connected together in series. The capacity range extends from approx. 10,000–300,000 m³/h. RS / RX filter The RS / RX series are a proven, expandable, modular system with low-pressure purge-air cleaning. Depending on requirements, appropriate filter and air injection sections are connected together in series. The capacity range extends from approx. 20,000–300,000 m³/h. RS / RX filters are suitable only for vacuum and positive pressure operation. The housing parts are usually made of 2 mm thick galvanised sheet steel. A thicker material in a painted execution as well as in stainless steel is also optionally available. The RS / RX series is 2.85 m wide. Filter hose lengths of 3 m (standard) and 4 m are available for this. The RSEC series has been designed for smaller air quantities and for above-roof installation. This series has a housing width of 2.4 m and 2 m-long filter hoses. The filter hoses are manufactured from polyester needle felt; the filtering direction is from the outside inwards. Filter cartridges and filter tubes are alternatively possible. The filter hoses are cleaned off using the material-preserving low-pressure purge-air system. The purging trolley inside the clean air compartment drives over the hose openings either continuously or controlled by pressure. In the direction of movement the first filter hose row is neutralised, while the second row is flushed from the clean air side. The third row is likewise neutralised. This results in a draught delay, which is necessary in order to allow the dislodged dust to fall into the discharge. The dust is discharged by a tried-and-tested drag conveyor with a downstream cellular wheel sluice. The return air pipes are provided with fire protection flaps and switching devices for exhaust air operation. The filter housing has been tested for resistance to pressure surges. Standard safety devices include likewise tested explosion pressure relief devices, fire extinguishing systems, mechanical and thermal monitoring systems as well as pressure-surge-resistant and flameproof cellular wheel sluices. The transport fan is arranged on the clean air side and is not exposed to swarf and dust. Hence, the conditions of a dust explosion zone do not prevail in the transport fan. RSV/RXV filter This series essentially differs from the RS/RX series in that its fans are arranged on the clean air side. RSV/RXV filters are suitable only for vacuum pressure operation. The capacity range extends from approx. 20,000 - 300,000 m³/h. The filter hoses are likewise cleaned off using the material-preserving low-pressure purge-air system.

Type RK/RF for continuous operation, suitable for virtually all types of dust. Round filter type RK / RF The round filters from this series are suitable for continuous operation and for almost all types of dust. What is special about them is the rotary cleaning device, which causes the dust to be sucked out of the filter hoses and discharged. Using other methods the dust is also continuously dislodged from the filter element, but contaminates the other filter elements in the next moment. Only a small part of the dislodged dust falls down and is discharged. The lower part of the filter is implemented like a cyclone and acts as a pre-filter, where coarse dust is already separated and discharged. Compressed air impulse cleaning is also possible as an option here. The filtering direction of the filter hoses is from the outside inwards. The hoses are provided with support frames.

Compact filters are characterised by the fact that they essentially unite fan, filter element and discharge or dust collection facility in one. The capacity range of the compact filters extends up to 20,000 m³/h. Different systems and modes of operation are available for the individual assemblies, resulting in a large number of possible variants. This allows us to offer a large range of solutions for dedusting tasks. Based on our many years of experience, we select the filter media from those available on the market that are best suited for the most diverse types of dust and tasks. Filter hoses, filter bags, filter tubes and filter cartridges are used as filter elements. Cleaning takes place using compressed air impulse, low-pressure purge-air or shaking. Fans from own development and production enable us to design a highly efficient and precise layout. Discharge usually takes place directly into collecting containers, such as dustbins with snap fasteners, or into containers, big bags, or via discharge mechanisms into automatic disposal systems. Screw conveyors, drag conveyors, rotary systems, cellular wheel sluices, double-gate sluices and slidegate valves are available as discharge mechanisms. Intelligent control systems, piping elements, silencers and pre-coating devices for auxiliary dusts are standard items in the range. Naturally we also use our know-how to create needs-based custom solutions.

These are ideally suited for extraction from one or more sources of dust and are predominantly used in small and medium-sized enterprises for air quantities of up to 6,000 m³/h. ES 200P/280P deduster with jet cleaning The ES 200P deduster is designed for an air quantity of max. 3,000 m³/h and has one dust collection container; the ES 280P is designed for max. 6,000 m³/h and has two dust collection containers. The ES deduster is made of galvanised sheet steel and is a universal device for the extraction and separation of various types of swarf and dust. The raw air inlet nozzle has a non-return valve arranged upstream of the device. The filter works according to the downdraft principle, i.e. raw air is fed to the filter cartridges from above. This construction results in extremely efficient pre-filtration and preserves the filter medium. The filter cartridges are cleaned by means of compressed air impulse. Swarf and dust is collected in the mobile containers arranged underneath. The fan, which is arranged on the clean air side, is equipped with a high-performance impeller. The clean air outlet opening has a sound-absorbing lining. The electrical controller is directly attached. Equipment Optional: 280P / PAS deduster MS multi-extractor with double-walled filter sack The built-in radial fan sucks off dust and swarf at the place of generation and forces it via the impeller into the air injection frame. The swarf collects in the dust or swarf sack. The dust/air mixture flows into the filter sack, where the dust is filtered out. The cleaned air is fed directly back to the operating area. The double-walled filter sack offers a significantly larger filter area compared to other designs. Filter cartridges are also possible here as an option. The filter elements are cleaned manually. The multi-extractors are predominantly used with coarse-grained and unproblematic types of dust and swarf. The devices are not suitable for continuous operation or for wood dust and splinters. Three sizes are available for the following maximum air quantities: Type MS 160 up to 2,000 m³/h Type MS 200 up to 3,000 m³/h Type MS 250 up to 5,000 m³/h

Special solutions for extraction from one or more sources of emission, designed and manufactured in accordance with special customer requirements. Special filters Special filter systems are designed for extraction from one or more sources of emission. We design and manufacture them in accordance with the special requirements of our customers. These filters are usually based on our own proven designs, which we then specially modify. Special applications or special solutions implemented: Special versions:

Force-of-gravity separators, which are used as pre-filters or for the separation of large quantities of dust and swarf. Cyclone separator Cyclones are force-of-gravity separators. The separation principle is based on centrifugal force, which is produced by the tangential injection of the raw air. Cyclones are used as pre-filters or for the separation of large quantities of dust and swarf. The degree of separation of a cyclone is not normally sufficient to meet the usual environmental protection requirements. The cyclone exhaust air must be post-filtered in most cases. Product description A cyclone essentially consists of three parts: the intake cylinder, the cone and the immersion tube. In the intake cylinder, the raw air is brought into a circular path by means of tangential injection. Due to the taper of the subsequent cone, the speed of rotation increases sharply, so that the particles are pressed by centrifugal force against the outer wall and decelerated by friction, causing them to drop out of the air stream and fall down. The cleaned air leaves the cone in an upward direction via the central immersion tube. Cyclones are usually welded sheet steel structures. Cellular wheel sluices or, in individual cases, double-gate sluices are used for the pressureless discharge of the material. In order to increase the cyclone effect, or the degree of separation, counter-spirals with a pipe connection can be placed on top of the immersion tube. Further options are, for example, wearing devices, explosion pressure relief devices, control flaps, level monitoring devices and manufacturing in stainless steel or galvanised sheet steel.
