Combustible dust generates considerable harzards when being handled improperly.

Especially coal power stations, refuse incinerators, and chemical plants count among the branches involving a high risk of dust explosions.

Generally,raised dust is combustible. Therefore a regluar an thorough cleaning of buildings, floors, silos, coal transport systems, treatment plants, machinery etc. by means of dust exhausting equipment is one of the most important measures to prevent explosions and fire.

Considering the hazards of the material to be exhausted, the vacuum systems must be designed in such a way that they do not become an explosions risk themselves. Large cleaning areas and long conveying distances therefore require powerful and mobile suction plants suitable for individual applications. Such mobile large-scale dust exhausters collect and separate the dust within a separator equipped with an integrated filter system. Dust is being continuously collected in a 500 l storage and transport container. After having reached the maximum filling level, the container is moved to any requested place by forklift and is then discharged via a drop bottom. The systems are equipped with automatic explosion suppression and isolation systems to protect the pipe lines connected.
