AF1200-3400-XL Dust Extraction System

Advantages of Austedan Fabrications Reverse Pulse Dust Extractors

The Model AF1200-3400-XL dust extraction system marks a significant advancement in industrial air purification technology. Designed to handle an impressive range of air volumes from 12,000 to 34,000 cubic meters per hour (m³/hr), this model is a powerhouse in managing large quantities of dust, fumes, and coarse particles. Its exceptional capacity makes it an ideal choice for major industrial operations, such as large-scale manufacturing plants, mining operations, and power generation facilities, where extensive dust extraction is crucial.

The Model AF1200-3400-XL Reverse Pulse Dust Extractors System

The versatility of the AF1200-3400-XL is one of its standout features. Capable of efficiently processing various types of particulates, this model is adept at handling everything from fine dust generated in pharmaceutical, food manufacturing, coal and/or metalific laboratories to the coarser particles encountered in construction or mining. This adaptability ensures that the system can provide optimal performance across diverse industrial environments.

Constructed for durability and high performance, the Model AF1200-3400-XL is designed to withstand the rigors of continuous, heavy-duty operation. Its robust build minimises maintenance requirements while maximising uptime, a critical factor in large-scale industrial applications where downtime can be costly. Additionally, by maintaining a cleaner work environment, this dust extraction system plays a pivotal role in safeguarding worker health, protecting machinery from dust-related wear, and ensuring compliance with environmental and occupational health regulations.

Investing in the Model AF1200-3400-XL is more than just an operational decision; it's a commitment to maintaining a high standard of workplace safety, environmental responsibility, and operational efficiency. This system is not only a tool for cleanliness but a strategic asset in the smooth and sustainable operation of large industrial enterprises.

What sets us apart from the rest?
- All systems built with large inbuilt central pre-separation chamber which aids filter life and means dust is distributed into multiple hoppers evenly. The pre-separation chamber is a low velocity central part of our dust extraction where gravity and a very low downdraft velocity forces heavier particles and high dust load to be dropped out of the airstream when the air turns twice before coming into the filter area. This reduces the dust load onto the filter bags thus making the cleaning system more efficient and in turn increasing the life of the filter bag. Over 23 years of building dust collectors we have never had a dust collector bag fail by premature wear or large foreign items imploding into our bags. In some cases extending life by 5 – 6 years over some of our oppositions collectors.
- We offer conservative air to cloth ratios and fabric selection for maximum capture of pollutants which in turn gives longer bag life, lower running costs and better emissions.
- Our filter bags have snaptex cuffs which require no tools to replace our filter bag and are accessible from within the plenum above, which means “No Confined Space Work” or permits are needed for filter bag changes. This is also a safer and cleaner operation than dust extraction which have the filter bags changed from within the dirty area.
- Our systems work under negative pressure where the fan is on the clean side which means no product or waste ever goes through our fan impellors, which in turn will never go out of balance, wear out prematurely or get broken impellors.
- Our extractors are fabricated from 3-5mm fully welded mild steel construction and work under a negative pressure so they never leech dust out of the joins and seals, Unlike some of our competitors positive pressure, bolt together, light gauge sheet metal dust collectors.
- Our Hopper angles are designed to help prevent against product hang-up and are minimum of 60° UNA.
- Inclined tops on our Dust Extractor.
- prevent water lying on top thus reducing premature corrosion.
- All Collectors are abrasive blasted before being painted by industrial painters in 2 Pak epoxy paint.
- We offer full Turnkey systems including customisation, fabrication, installation and after-sales service to suit all customers specific requirements.
Made to suit customer specific applications covering
- Location issues
- Nature of dusts
- All waste dust discharge applications catered for
- Several waste bin options available
- The waste discharge below each dust collector is designed to suit the quantity and available area of each customised unit
We offer several options
