Metal centers and plants that generate combustible metal dusts are at risk for an explosion. Whether you have a dust collection system in place or plan to install a new one, how do you know if your equipment supplier has the experience and know-how to give the best advice?

This free eBook provides 7 questions to ask.

The VAC-U-MAX 55MW is designed to clean 100% liquids, or liquids with solid particles such as metal chips or shavings -- up to 1-2 gallons per second (60-120 GPM). Operators can quickly empty machine tool sumps, machining beds, oil/water separators, parts washers, rinse tanks, and efficiently clean-up liquid spills. Solid particles are separated from collected liquid with a VAC-U-MAX Chip Basket and Liner.

Metalworking processes like grinding, buffing and polishing create dust that can be an explosion hazard when it builds up in the air or on surfaces and floors. The intense heat and sparks produced by these processes can be an ignition source for combustible dust fires and explosions. This Q&A provides important information about identifying and complying with combustible metal dust hazards.

VAC-U-MAX 55MW is a complete system for cleaning 100% liquids or liquids with solid particles including metal chips or shavings. System enables operator to separate coolant from metal chips at rates of 1-2 gallons per second (60-120 GPM). Operators quickly empty machine tool sumps, machining beds, parts washers, etc. by vacuuming both coolant and chips into the collection container. Solid particles are separated with coolant flowing through the basket directly into the collection container.
