Secure Employee Safety icon

1. Secure Employee Safety

Employers are solely responsible for workplace conditions and safety measures. Air filtration systems help employers secure a safe work environment by filtering contaminated air until its surgical-grade clean.

Protecting machine operators from exposure to contaminated air will lower employee injury risks and sick-days while boosting productivity and morale!


Meet Regulations icon

2. Meet Air Quality Regulations

Air filtration systems are designed to help employers meet Federal, State, and local clean air standards. To find out which air filtration system best meets the demands of your application, contact us.

Employers and machine operators must also abide by OSHA and NIOSH regulations and follow manufacturer safety and operation manuals to ensure optimal safety.


Improve Equipment Protection icon

3. Improve Equipment Protection

Without air filtration systems, the particulate in contaminated air can land in and on machinery causing equipment to perform less efficiently or breakdown. Consistent equipment issues result in higher maintenance and repair costs while lowering productivity rates.


Prevent Fire Hazards icon

4. Prevent Fire Hazards

A combustible dust hazard can be determined when machine operators are performing grinding, deburring, cutting, blasting, sieving, budding, or polishing processes with combustible metals and if there's an ignition source present. Types of ignition sources can include:

There are air filtration systems, such as dust collectors, that are specifically designed to prevent fire and explosion risks.
