How to handle sandblasting dust? SO.TEC has you covered

The sandblasting process allows the surface of a metal to be given new shape, but unfortunately this also involves the production of large amounts of polluting dust. To preserve the employees' health and protect machinery from damage caused by these contaminants,dust filtration becomes an essential solution.

The dust filtration process is carried out by separating pollutants from clean air particles; once captured, dust is gathered in the filter housing with no means of escape, while clean air is recirculated or expelled to the outside so that the entire work area is made entirely safe.

SO.TEC's sandblasting dust filtration systems are effective solutions for completely purifying the air in working environments. Among the most suitable solutions for companies is the MEP system, a modular dust filtration plant with low and medium suction rates that can be installed both inside and outside the work area. A wide array of modules of 2, 4, 6 or 8 drawers can be chosen and integrated with fans from 3 to 18.5 kW. The system can be accessorized with valves, dust collection bins, silencers and quick-closing inspection doors.

The MEP Ex filter has been designed specifically for dedusting explosive dusts and is ATEX certified for all hazard classes. This type of filter features a compact and reinforced structure, maximum suction efficiency, the possibility of installation directly at the dust source for maximum value.
Finally, the MCP is a cartridge-based sandblasting dust filtration equipment offering the highest suction capacity in the SO.TEC catalog. The system is very compact and can be installed inside and outside the work area.
