Coalescing Fiber Bed Technology
Industrial processes that combine lubricants with high-speed machining tools generate oil mist and smoke. As machine tools spin faster to improve productivity, coolant delivery rates, and pressures increase. As this happens, the risk of problems from oil mist and smoke also grows.
The exact make-up of oil mist and smoke varies based on the process, but will likely consist of a complex mix of toxic contaminants - oil, water, additives, metal slivers, bacteria and more. Exposure to oil mist and smoke is harmful to human health and the wider environment. It’s vital to capture industrial pollution at the source, the moment it is generated, to mitigate health and safety risks.
Most oil mist and smoke collectors are only effective against larger particulate, around 10μm in diameter. But ScandMist is effective where it really counts — with particulate under 1μm in diameter (PM1)!
ScandMist collectors combine oil coalescing filters with a final HEPA filter stage that provides 99.95 % efficiency against particulate 0.3μm in diameter. With this level of filtration, the output air from ScandMist is clinically clean and likely to be of a much higher standard than the air found outside your facility. That means safe air quality for your workers, and health and safety resolution for you.
