Fuchs Umwelttechnik P+V GmbH is outfitting the Hella Hueck company with an innovative extraction system concept
In response to special customer demands, different additional components are used based on the proven Fuchs Umwelttechnik compact MKFVA102 dust separator with two BIA tested filter cartridges.
An integrated bypass which bypasses the filter cartridges during the on-line cleaning process serves to prevent the production and extraction process at the measuring point being influenced by a possible surge of compressed air.
Another feature is the integrated, pneumatically controlled dusting unit. This module offers the possibility of blowing inert dust into the filtering device to lower the combustion factor of extracted, highly reactive dusts to an uncritical level. Since a combustion factor (classified from BZ1 to BZ6 in accordance with VDI 2263) of three and less means that the dust is self-extinguishing, not even extracted sparks or smouldering particles can cause a fire as investigations by DEKRA EXAM have shown.
Another new feature is the automatic, low contamination dust extraction which is enabled by two electrically controlled locking flaps. The defined volume between the first and second flap is monitored by a filling level sensor, i.e. the first flap opens after every filter cartridge cleaning process until the filling level sensor responds. If this is the case, the second locking flap opens and the collected dust is emptied into a PE foil bag. This process is repeated five times until the machine outputs a warning message to the operator at a defined volume. The second locking flap then stays closed until the operator has changed the foil bag and acknowledged the warning message. This ensures that the dust is disposed of without contamination at regular intervals.
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.
