Flextraction Downflow Booths

The Flextraction Downflow Booth

Flextraction Downflow Booths have been designed to offer containment of dust over large areas of emission where conventional hoods are not adequate or effective.

For example, when scooping from tubs or bags into a weigh point, the area of dust emission is very large. Our Downflow Booths offer suppression and extraction of dust over the whole area, as shown in the illustration opposite.

Operation

The Downflow booth operates on a re-circulatory airflow principle. A clean downflow of air is supplied from the ceiling HEPA (High Efficiency Particle Arrestor) filters suppressing any dust away from the operator's breathing zone.

The Flextraction Downflow Booth

Louvered grilles in the lower rear wall capture airborne contaminants and filter the air via three stage filtration. This comprises of primary roughing filters, secondary bag filters and finally HEPA filters discharging over the operator's head, providing a nominal evenly distributed downflow of 0.5m/sec. This provides a continued downflow to suppress dust below the operator's breathing zone into the extract area.

The Booth operates with inward airflow, ensuring airborne contamination cannot escape into the external environment and make-up air can only enter the Booth at low level.

Included within the booth are pressure indicating devices to monitor the performance of the extraction together with automatic control of the variable speed fans to maintain optimum operating conditions.

Industry Sectors

Industry sectors that have benefited most from this excellent product include Bakeries and Food Plants, Dye and Paint manufacturers, Pharmaceutical and Chemical Manufacturers.
