Fiberglass/Autobody:
Studies are ongoing but your lungs need protection
now.
AZTech Model 2500
The
AZTech 2500 (featured above) is an industrial air filtration unit designed to collect
dust, smoke, fumes and other airborne contaminants. The AZTech 2500 has a high efficiency 2 stage filtration
system and is engineered for “free hanging” ambient air
filtration applications. The cabinet can be manufactured
from an environmentally friendly polyethylene (matte
finish) or powder coated carbon steel.

-
Clean air throw is at 90° from the
intakes, again contributing to
better airflow patterns throughout a
workspace.
-
Dual
intake - Twice the normal intake
area of a straight through air
cleaner. More intake
guarantees a better airflow pattern
and efficiency is a key driver in
any industry.
-
Dual
filters - Twice the filter media of
a straight through air cleaner
equates to longer filter life
& longer filter service
intervals which in turn
equates to dollars saved.
Model T-3000
Industrial Maid's
T-Series
modular ambient industrial air cleaning
units feature cabinets fabricated from
recycled polyethylene plastic (material
from used pop bottles and milk jugs).
The black matte finish looks terrific,
resists dents and scratches and meets
all NFPA fire codes. Satisfied customers
note that the product is lighter,
dampens blower noise and is less
expensive and more environmentally
conscious than comparable equipment
manufactured with carbon steel cabinets.
The unique systems are completely
modular, so additional cabinets can be
added for more sq. ft of filter media
and to accommodate air flow rates of
3,000 to 7,500 cfm.

FILTER WALLS
& ENVIRONMENTAL BOOTHS |
Model FW35-4
Industrial
Maid announces the new addition of a
“side draft” filter wall unit for use in
industrial manufacturing plants to
contain welding smoke & fumes, grinding
dusts, vapors and other air borne
contaminants. This unit is mounted on a
steel pallet with fork lift slips,
offers three stages of filtration – 1)
2” polyester pre-filter or 2” spark
baffle filter – 2) 4” pleated filter &
3) 45% to 95% multi pocket bag filter.
The system has a cabinet manufactured
from high density polyethylene plastic –
making it lighter, quieter,
non-corrosive and environmentally
friendly versus a steel cabinet system.
The unit runs on low horsepower ratings,
uses low air to cloth ratios and
requires no compressed air or control
boards for operation. The maintenance
is fast and simple – access thru the
front or an option is available for rear
access doors and no tools are required.
The units offer business and industry a
“lower cost of ownership” as compared to
existing technologies.
Model FW35-4 w/Environmental
Booth
Industrial Maid has designed a unique
environmental control booth to help
contain fugitive dust in the industrial
workplace. The system incorporates a
three stage media style filtration
system, powered by a totally enclosed
motor and belt drive blower package.
Three standard sizes are available - 6”
width, 10’ width and 20’ width. The
booth housing is modular in design with
acoustical sound control. The air
filtration module has fork lift slips
and an airflow range from 4,500 to
15,000 CFM. As with other IM LLC
equipment, the outer cabinet shell is
manufactured using a recycled
polyethylene plastic, making it lighter,
quieter, less expensive and more
environmentally friendly than a typical
carbon steel cabinet. The booth systems
do not require use of compressed air and
have a lower energy consumption rate as
compared to similar cartridge style
units.
Model EB56 MOD
Industrial
Maid
introduces the new Model
EB56 series packaged air filtration
unit. This system is designed to handle
welding smoke and fumes, grinding dust
and other airborne particulates. The
powerful 4500 CFM, 5 HP motor with a
direct drive high pressure BI composite
blower makes the system quiet, efficient
and easy to service. The air passes
through a spark baffle for arrestance,
then moves through a plenum chamber to
eliminate heavy particles, then lastly
passes thru a Merv 7 and Merv 14 series
of filters. A HEPA final filter is also
available to meet hexavalent chromium
fume standards for stainless steel
welding.

Problem: Fiberglass has been
studied off and on since the 1970's with varying
levels of regulatory classifications from
possible carcinogen to nuisance dust.
Although there is much
uncertainty over the regulatory future
of fiberglass, it remains in the ARC. Since
the listing, four federal agencies have
begun to consider new standards
concerning glass wool: the Occupational
Safety and Health Administration, the
Environmental Protection Agency, the
Consumer Product Safety Commission, and
the National Institute of Occupational
Safety and Health. So have about 10
state governments, some foreign
governments and the European Union.
EPA internally
classifies glass fiber as a possible
carcinogen. At OSHA, fibrous glass is
still regulated as if it were any other
form of "nuisance dust," though the
agency has put it on a "priority" list
for future regulation. For now, both agencies have joined
CPSC and NIOSH to form a "fiber" task
force to assess the actual risks, if
any, for users of various man-made
fibers. Just last September the Natural
Resources Defense Council reviewed
scientific literature on competing
insulation materials and reported that
fiberglass had the "most
well-documented" risks.
Problem:
During spray painting in
autobody repair shops, workers are exposed to
all of the paint components which are atomized.
Workers who spray paint cars apply a
clear coat which contain polyols and
hardeners that are prepolymerized forms
of diisocyanates. Generally, these
polyisocyanates are trimers of
hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI).
Exposure to these polyisocyanates can
cause skin and eye irritation,
respiratory sensitization, asthma, and
reduced lung function. During spray
painting in autobody repair shops,
workers are exposed to all of the paint
components which are atomized. In
addition to polyisocyanates, these
constituents include organic solvents,
metals such as lead and chromium, and
trace quantities of HDI monomer.
SOLUTION:
A study of control
measures in autobody repair shops
found that the type of air filtration
equipment and the choice of shop
equipment can be used to minimize
exposure. Let the specialists at
Industrial Maid help design a system
that maximizes your protection.
At Industrial Maid we use the
newest technology to design and manufacture air
filtration equipment that will address the
problems all business face including space, air
flow, costs, efficiency and challenges that are
specific to your industry.
Another very important consideration is the size
and type of filters that best suit the system
you choose. Give us a call at TF:
877-624-3247 or
send us an email:
sales@industrial-maid.com. We carry a full
line of pleat, bag, and HEPA filters so be sure
to ask our staff which would be best for your
type of application.
