SALT DUST ARRESTER/FILTER SOCKS
A louvered type vent system is incorporated in our standard model salt saturators. With this system any escaping dust would be vented out through the louvered vent. If your application was based indoors or in a sensitive area other means of venting should be considered.
Flocktons TVP are able to offer alternate filter systems in the form of either a filter sock or salt dust arrester.
The filter sock is primarily for an indoor application. It is made up from a fabric type porous material to prevent any pressurisation during filling. The filter sock is attached to a vent of the top of the vessel and is designed to catch any escaping dust within the sock itself. It is recommended that the sock is emptied by the drawstrings after each fill.
The dust arrester is a small tank based next to the salt saturator. The dust arrester is connected to the vessel via a 12" PVC vent line. In this vent line there is a supply of water which passes through a spray nozzle. The spray effect is designed to guide the dust into the arrester. The dust then sits in a bed of water and is distributed away via a 2" outlet.
Dust arresters will remove the majority of dust but in highly sensitive areas a specialist dust removal system may be required.
