Class filter for Classic Kitchens in Napier
In the Joinery business for over 35 years, Larry knew that with the Christmas rush approaching, it was time to step up his filtration system in the workshop where he has 3 fulltime joiners with 90 years combined experience between them, manufacturing for mostly local customers who spread word of their satisfaction with new kitchens and joinery work from the very successful company: order books are full until after next March.
NZ Duct+Flex suggested a classic 3 unit Modular Filter with a massive 1000mm Rotary Valve exit for collection all from Danish based JKF Industri. Twinned with a 7.5kw fan from the same manufacturer blowing into the bottom ‘collecting chamber’ of the filter, much of the dust goes straight into the base to exit through the Rotary Valve, not even touching the 42 filter socks suspended above. As all components, the Fan, Filter, Bags and Ducting come from one manufacturer, optimum performance and compatibility is ensured.
Long lasting ‘LOW pressure operation
Manufactured from Galvanised Swedish steel, the Filter unit provides “low pressure filtration”. Low pressure filtration means two things happen:
- The velocity of the dust as it leaves the ducting and enters the filer drops off quicker, so more dust simply drops straight into the collecting area.
The dust that does come into contact with the filter socks does so at a lower velocity and so tends to settle more on the edge of the cloth forming a ‘cake’ that actually aids the filtration process rather than be driven deeply into the fabric of the material. This means less clogging of the bags, longer life, less changing of filters and cleaning.
