Paper and Packing Products Dust Ducting
In paper and packaging manufacturing, dust is an inevitable byproduct. As machine operators produce paper products, equipment like corrugators generates high volumes of paper waste, trim, and dust.
This paper dust is easily transmittable and can settle throughout an entire facility on equipment, work surfaces, and flooring. Importantly, paper dust is combustible, making it highly dangerous if left uncontrolled.
The combustible nature of paper dust requires specialized dust collection and ducting systems to ensure work environments remain safe and compliant with regulations.
When pressure build-up is confined inside a building, it can potentially initiate an explosion. A deflagration can result in disastrous property damage, severe personal injuries, and even fatalities.
Several NFPA standards require that dust collectors have a way to stop the transmission of energy from an explosion to a building. These standards require that dust collectors have mechanisms to prevent the transmission of energy from an explosion to a building.
