Keep Your Facility Safe

Are Combustible Dust Challenges Putting Your Facility at Risk?

Manufacturing and processing facilities face major risks from combustible dust buildup, which can quickly create hazardous conditions if not properly controlled. Dust accumulation in overhead and hard-to-reach areas increases the likelihood of fires or explosions, posing a serious threat to safety.

Costly Shutdowns to Clean?

Traditional cleaning methods require regular shutdowns to manually remove dust from hard-to-reach areas. This labor-intensive, messy, and time-consuming process disrupts production schedules and can negatively impact your bottom line.

Despite consistent cleaning and other collection methods, dust accumulates quickly in hard-to-reach places. This creates an endless cycle of cleaning and accumulation, making it nearly impossible to maintain a consistently safe environment.

  • So, where does the overhead dust go when you have SonicAire dust control fans? It settles on the ground, making clean-up as easy as sweeping with a broom.

Regulatory bodies like OSHA are tightening their guidance with the National Emphasis Program. The pressure to comply with dust control has never been more intense. Non-compliance doesn’t just result in fines, it risks your entire operation. Insurance companies frequently conduct inspections, adjust premiums, and may even suspend operations until identified issues are resolved. SonicAire is insurance-approved, and businesses that install it may qualify for discounted rates.

Prevent Combustible Dust Buildup with SonicAire Dust Control Fan Technology

When used alongside traditional dust collectors, SonicAire dust control fans enhance overall dust control by creating a horizontal air barrier to keep dust from your hard-to-clean overhead spaces and relocating it to the floor.

The SonicAire Advantage:

Proactively Preventing Buildup > Repetitive Cleaning

SonicAire’s fan-based solution is specifically designed to address the gaps left by traditional dust collection systems. It adapts seamlessly to changes in facility layouts and production processes without requiring extensive reconfiguration. By preventing dust from settling and spreading, the system minimizes the risk of re-entrainment, ensuring better ongoing dust control. Additionally, SonicAire fans reduce maintenance demands, delivering consistent performance with less frequent intervention, making them a reliable, low-maintenance solution for long-term dust management.

Top Gear

The “top gear” allows the fan to rotate a full 360 degrees. With the ZCK (Zone Control Kit), you can limit the airflow, allowing you to shut off the fan in areas where you don’t want it to blow. This feature adds precision and control to where and how the air circulates, ensuring the fan meets your exact needs.

iDrive

The “iDrive” system enables precise control over oscillation, giving you even more control over the fan’s direction. By fine-tuning oscillation, you can ensure the fan directs air exactly where it’s needed, enhancing effectiveness for specific tasks or spaces.
