IF1700.1 extraction unit with MKFAKRT7 extraction booth
Soft jet process in the extraction booth – kind on art, hard on pollutants
Conservators are frequently faced with the challenge of cleaning sensitive surfaces of works of art. Sculptures, picture frames or very sensitive materials such as paper or parchment require skill, expertise and the right equipment. Dry cleaning by means of fine compressed air jets with cellulose or wheat starch is therefore considered as a particularly gentle method. This gentle method fully retains the structure and gloss or also the dullness of the objects.
However, the blowing off with compressed air releases the fine cellulose or wheat starch particles, gases and sometimes even mould. These emissions can now be collected reliably in the MKFAKRT7 extraction booth with the aid of different options and extracted and filtered by the IF1700.1 extraction unit.
The options are, depending on the type and size of the object, the complete rear wall with filter mat for areal extraction. Alternatively, or additionally, the freely moving extraction arm is recommended for selective extraction. Flat materials such as paper and parchment can be sucked on lightly with adjustable vacuum pressure by a collecting plate in the bottom and processed without slipping.
Both parts of the device can be moved easily to the desired position by means of easy-action rollers for maximum flexibility.
With this combination of extraction booth and extraction unit, Fuchs Umwelttechnik again supplies a multiple safety package. The safety not to inhale harmful substances, the safety of achieving a totally dust-free work result and the safety of relieving the stress on our environment a little.
The conversion unit was developed at the request of a customer who is already equipped with numerous TKFVA devices. For their sensor production, they required additional safety measures against the reactive dusts of CrNi steels and titanium. Since the INRVABE3.1 powdering module is designed exclusively for the higher emission quantities of the MKFVA and INRV device types, the consequence would be an expensive total replacement of the extraction and filtering units. Economically, this is no option and not at all what we have in mind.
To meet our customers' requirements, our engineers therefore designed the TKFVAÜG6 conversion unit especially for the appropriate performance data of the most compact device series with automatic filter cleaning TKFVA. With this, the INRVABE3.1 powdering module can now also be used for smaller emission quantities.
Sophisticated in every detail:
- Constant discharge through a chute into a 20-litre barrel by optimum positioning to the TKFVA, even during operation
- The powdering has been parametrised exactly for the smaller emission quantities
- A pinch valve is no longer required for the activation
- PE-film in the barrel for contamination-free disposal
- Barrel emptying by a quick clamp offline
With the new TKFVAÜG6 conversion unit, our customers now have a complete safety solution especially for smaller emission quantities at their disposal which can easily be integrated into existing systems.
Great interest in the TKFVA300 and cyclone pre-separator
The Pantron/Fuchs Umwelttechnik fair booth was a magnet for the professional visitors. Special focus was placed on our latest new developments: the compact TKFVA300 extraction and filtering unit and the cyclone pre-separator. Both systems were convincing in their technical design, their high quality, and their practical possibilities for use in many different industrial applications.
Many concrete customer inquiries from the region
Numerous companies in North and South Carolina took the opportunity to find out about tailor-made extraction and filtering solutions for their specific applications with concrete inquiries on site. Further appointments to visit the companies were arranged during the fair – a clear indication of the great interest in the performance capabilities of our extraction and filtering systems.
Outlook for the Southtec 2027
Following this successful fair appearance, Pantron and Fuchs Umwelttechnik would like to thank all visitors for their keen interest. The joint team is already looking forward to the Southtec 2027.
With this partnership, we are strengthening our local market presence and ensuring that our customers in Switzerland benefit from competent technical know-how, direct customer contact and top-class service.
The Fuchs Aadorf company stands for quality, reliability and technical expertise – ideal conditions for the optimally communicating the advantages and performance capabilities of our devices.
