It's very challenging to control dust from mining processing equipment, such as crushing, screen, and conveyor transfer points. Both the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) are working with mining companies to reduce dust emissions around mine sites to protect people and the environment. Both agencies have strict limits on dust emissions. If emissions are too high, production schedules may be curtailed and fines can be imposed. This is why proper design and selection of dust control equipment is an important concern.
In addition to meeting regulatory requirements, reducing emissions protects personnel, improves the air quality of surrounding areas, and reduces wear and tear on production equipment. A proper dust collection system offers reliable operations and ease of maintenance.
The Farr Gold Series industrial dust collector is uniquely suited to meet the requirements of the mining industry in the 2.5 micron and 10 micron size Particulate Matter (PM) ranges. It is extremely rugged with a heavy-gauge construction and a modular design that optimizes field flexibility in harsh mining environments.
What sets Camfil APC apart as the leader in high-efficiency filtration design is the Gold Cone cartridge filter. This filter combined with our unique collector design results in a solution that works well in a harsh mining environment.
