What causes fabrication failure? Where can sheet metal ductwork fabrication go wrong? It starts with improper material selection. If an abrasive particulate such as silica isn’t matched with an abrasive-resistant duct material, the duct will not withstand wear and tear over time. Incorrect thickness can also lead to premature wear when the duct is too…
The primary goal of an industrial ventilation system hood is to capture and transfer environmental contaminants. A hood’s size and shape is designed specific to its end application but is typically classified within the enclosing hood or exterior hood category. Hood Types Enclosing hoods: An enclosing hood will completely or partially surround the point where…
The ductwork of an industrial dust collection system connects the system’s hoods, air cleaning device(s) and fan. Carefully planning the size of the ductwork will assist in reducing waste, reducing costs and improving efficiency. Types of Industrial Ductwork Industrial Ductwork Sizing Determining the size of the ductwork for an industrial dust collection system requires a…
