Dust Suppression Unit for Industry

Industrial environmental control specialist Minetek has released its T500 and T700 models dust suppression units for general dust and odour control in applications such as steel factories, general engineering and foundries.

Suitable for the suppression of both dust and odours, the Minetek DSUs are extremely portable and adaptable to many differing working environments. The system works because the size of the water molecules created by the DSU matches the size of the powder/dust it is treating. It handles even the very finest dust particles using a combination of different sized droplets.

Available in either pole-mounted or the more mobile trailer-mounted versions, the Minetek DSU has two versions that can project water at a distance of either 50m or 70m. They have low noise levels and high power output, with a wide range of angle and elevation while being easy to use.

The most powerful version, the T700, with a throw distance of up to 70 m, has an installed power rating of 11.5 kW, and protection rating to IP 66, a 340° range of rotation and an elevation ranging from -20° to +45°. Water consumption ranges between 15-70 litres per minute.

Options include a multifunction portable radio-control handpiece, electronic water valves, automated rotation and elevation, a fluid doing system to introduce additives for dust suppression or odour control, generators, water tanks, hoses and pipework.
