Mist Collection Technologies

There are three common types of mist collectors: Electrostatic Precipitators Media Filtration Centrifugal Collectors Let’s look at how they work and their relative strengths and weaknesses. Electrostatic Precipitators or Electronic Air Cleaners Coolant mist removal starts with an impinger section. This typically consists of either a series of chevron-shaped plates or a coarse metal mesh. The larger spray and mist droplets impact the impinger and adhere to the plates or mesh. The accumulated coolant flows by…

Coolant Mist From Metal Removal And Your Health

Metal removal by machining and grinding creates friction and consequent heat. Excess heat can reduce tool life, affect surface finish and may affect finished dimensions due to thermal expansion of the parts being manufactured. In order to reduce friction and heat, coolants are frequently applied. These coolants or metal working fluids (MWF), are available in a number of formulations. These include: straight oils (such as petroleum oils), water-based fluids, which include soluble oils, and semisynthetic/synthetic…

Are Respirators A Solution For Workplace Airborne Hazards?

That seems like a perfectly sensible question to ask. If there is an airborne health hazard, wouldn’t it be reasonable to use respirators to control employee exposures?

Cleaning An Electronic Air Cleaner Cell

How do electronic air cleaners work? Two stage electrostatic precipitators are composed of two sections, a charging section and a collection section. The charging section uses ionizer wires to impart a positive charge to the incoming smoke, fume and dust particles. The charged particles are then drawn into a secondary electric field where they are collected on a series of metal plates. Then, the electrostatic precipitators re-circulate clean air into the general airstream. Over time, the collector section metal plates become…
