Oil Mist Capture on EDM Machine

An aerospace manufacturer needed to capture oil mist and smoke from several EDM machines. Because their EDM department was adding additional machines without any additional space, they needed a mist collector that could be installed above the machines to maximize floor space. Gulftech Casiba Group chose an Industrial Maid M36 Industrial Air Cleaner with a mist collection filter configuration. Because the unit would be out of reach of the operator, a Filter Service Indicator accessory was added, offering a warning light when the filters required maintenance. The unit duct system included a spark trap to prevent any sparks from possibly entering the filter system.

The customer appreciated the powerful, quiet mist collector that gave back floor space, as well as the filter service indicator system. The VFD controlled motor could be regulated to increase or decrease vacuum and reduce noise as necessary.
