Is your dust collection system working at peak efficiency? A quick, do-it-yourself examination may identify symptoms that your system needs a check-up. Enjoy this video from The Dust Efficiency Clinic at Aerodyne. You'll be able to identify five signs that may diagnose a sluggish system so that you can return your system to full efficiency.

These are just some of the questions that should be addressed when considering a material handling valve for your application. What type of material is being handled? How much should be spent? What kind of power source can be supplied? This white paper offers an easy how-to-guide for selecting the right material handling valve for your specific application. Simply fill out the form and you will have immediate access to the guide.

This video from the Dust Efficiency Clinic discusses five warning signs that your dust collection system needs a pre-filter. Pre-filtering may reduce operating and maintenance costs by extending bag or filter life and improving removal efficiencies.

Do the rotary valves under your dust collectors cause maintenance headaches? Are they clogging? Are you having to drop everything and assign extra labor to fix them? Aerodyne™’s Vacu-Valve ® is the solution! Have a look at this infographic and to learn how the Vacu-valve solves these issues and improves the discharge efficiency of your baghouse, filters and cyclones.

The Aerodyne Vacu-Valve is an economical alternative to rotary valves. Its unique design allows it to provide an airlock with no moving parts on dust collectors that are operating with a slight vacuum. Material that is fine, free flowing and will not bridge drains from the Vacu-Valve sleeve, while maintaining an airlock.

This paper highlights an assortment of case studies and explains how arc flash hazards were identified, measured and mitigated at various industry facilities. Case studies will include: Compliance with IEEE 1584-2002 Guide for Performing Arc Flash Hazard Calculations along with regional workplace safety standards for a multi-site global cement manufacturer; Implementation of an Arcflash Reduction Maintenance System™ in an airlock section of a main switch room for a minerals processing plant upgrade; Investigation of an arc flash incident at a chemical processing facility; and a “Safety by Design” upgrade for the iron ore division of a global mining business. The paper will examine the plans and processes reviewed and considered, the strategy deployed to manage/reduce arc flash hazards, and then discuss lessons learned in the implementation of new systems to improve electrical workplace safety.
