110 1 AERSERVICE FORNISCE PRODOTTI E SOLUZIONI TENENDO CONTO DI RIFERIMENTI NORMATIVI NAZIONALI E INTERNAZIONALI TURNING SHOP 3 WELDING AND FINISHING AREA APPLICATIONS The ECO trolley-mounted electrostatic air cleaner constitutes the ideal solution for the aspiration and filtration of welding fumes deriving from the processes and systems currently in use in the mechanical engineering and metalworking sectors. The characteristics of electrostatic filtration compared to mechanical filtration differ because of their reduced capacity for accumulation of larger particulate size and higher concentrations of dust combined with their high effectiveness in capturing fumes heavily contaminated wit oil and grease or even oil mist with low emulsion load. A specific application for the ECO N AIR CLEANER is for grinding machines in which the recovery of the aspirated emulsion is guaranteed, with subsequent return to the workplace of filtered air. National and international regulations allow the use of these devices in replacement of conventional air cleaners with an articulated arm in special situations such as occasional or discontinuous use (e.g. 20 hours out of a 40 hour working week) or in situations in which the work processes are dynamic to the point at which a fixed capture system is ineffective. In addition, filtration unit also purifies the air in the surrounding environment, so not only treating the area contaminated by the work process but simultaneously creating air exchange in the workplace and further decreasing the level of pollutants present. To comply with regulations and to obtain high quality filtration with consequent safety for the operator, the filters correct maintenance/periodic replacement is essential of the filters, which, in our units, provide high filtration capacity and very low costs for the filter sections. AERSERVICE SUPPLIES PRODUCTS AND SOLUTIONS TAKING ACCOUNT OF NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL NORMATIVE REFERENCES OPERATOR SAFETY Pollutants deriving from industrial and small workshop processes must be captured as close as possible to the point of release and routed to the exterior of the workplace. In the case of intermittent work processes however, such pollutants can be aspirated and filtered out of the air, which is subsequently returned to the workplace. In this case, in addition to the use of portable air cleaner systems the installation of ambient ventilation systems may be required. Italian decree D.Lgs. 81/2008 - 2006/15/EC TECHNOLOGY EMPLOYED To guarantee and satisfy the applicable national and international standards and regulations, we make use of the best available technology, which, combined with superior technical know-how, results in the creation of safe products that are in compliance with the people responsible for using the equipment; for example, the speed of capture of the pollutant is never considered at less than 0.5 m/sec during the design stage (as required by the controlling authorities). ENVIRONMENTAL ASPECT The filtration performance levels guaranteed are established in accordance with international specifications that limit the concentration levels of airborne pollutants for professional activities for which a repeatedly exposed worker does not suffer any form of health impairment. American Conference of Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH) – Italian decree D.M. 20/08/1999. National and international regulations are referred to the values specified by ACGIH.
