In the workplace, they have an impact on the entire working environment, from the health of employees to the deterioration of equipment (overheating of machines, wear and tear on parts, etc.).  <\/p>\n\n<p>So, installing the right <strong>dust collection equipment in your production process<\/strong> is essential in many respects, not least by opting for a solution based on the type of dust.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Which industrial dust collector to choose, depending on pollutants?<\/h2>\n\n<p>The nature and form of the pollutant are decisive criteria in selecting the <strong>best dust collector model<\/strong>. Explanations with different product ranges.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignleft size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/obera.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/image-depoussiereur-obnex-1024x768.webp\" alt=\"image obnex dust collector\" class=\"wp-image-26183\" style=\"width:421px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/obera.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/image-depoussiereur-obnex-1024x768.webp 1024w, https:\/\/obera.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/image-depoussiereur-obnex-300x225.webp 300w, https:\/\/obera.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/image-depoussiereur-obnex-768x576.webp 768w, https:\/\/obera.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/image-depoussiereur-obnex-1536x1152.webp 1536w, https:\/\/obera.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/image-depoussiereur-obnex-2048x1536.webp 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Suction of wood, metal, plastic and fiber chips<\/h3>\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n<p>Like the<strong> AAS, MOBIL, OBNEX or DUSTMAC S ranges<\/strong>, industrial baghouse dust collectors are ideal for <strong>extracting dusts such as swarf<\/strong>, as well as paper and cardboard fibers. They also have the advantage of being easy to maintain.<\/p>\n\n<p>Some baghouses, such as the OBNEX or DUSTMAC S range, are particularly<a href=\"https:\/\/obera.fr\/en\/our-advice\/what-is-explosive-dust-extraction-and-removal\/\"> well-suited to large quantities of flammable and explosive dust<\/a> (ATEX zoning). In particular, this solution<strong> collects the coarsest particles thanks to its pre-separation baffle<\/strong>, and is equipped with innovative devices to prevent outbreaks of fire.<\/p>\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Fine dust collector<\/h3>\n\n<p>Grinding dust, sanding dust&#8230; <strong>Several ranges of dust collectors<\/strong> are adapted to industrialists who generate fine dust and smoke in their workshops (metalworking, plastics industry). These include :<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Dust extractors<\/strong> (e.g. TK and OM series), often used in mechanical and metalworking workshops. Their applications are suitable for dusty air extraction in environments that generate moderate dust and occasional use.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Small industrial dust collectors<\/strong> equipped with saturation filter media that retain and store dust, as in the AIRBOX range. These units are used when fumes or very small quantities of dust need to be extracted, and for occasional use.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong> Mobile dust collectors<\/strong> with high air intake capacity (e.g. DUSTOMAT, MOBEX), ideal for extracting fine dusts, fumes and hazardous particles, thanks to an upgradeable design that allows the addition of terminal filters (HEPA class H filter).  <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Industrial cartridge dust collectors<\/strong> (e.g. DUSTMAC P). These devices are fixed and positioned outside or inside buildings. Pollutants are collected at each workstation via a fixed piping network.  <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Good to know: It&#8217;s important to ensure that <strong>the filter system is compatible<\/strong> with the material being vacuumed. Carcinogenic pollutants, explosive materials, sticky dusts in the food industry (oil, sugar and moisture), sparks in welding shops, wood chips in carpentry, moisture extraction&#8230; There&#8217;s a type of filter to meet the <strong>specific needs of each particle<\/strong>.  <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Fumes: welding, laser, fog  <\/h3>\n\n<p>Preference should be given to <strong>industrial cartridge dust collectors<\/strong> (SRF, AIRBOX, ESTMAC 1500\/1800, DUSTOMAT 4-10 or 4-24, MOBEX, DUSTMAC F&#8230;) designed to extract welding fumes and dry dusts. The device can be fixed or portable for source extraction (connected to welding torches or <a href=\"https:\/\/obera.fr\/en\/produits\/bras-dispositifs-captation\/capot-industriel\/\">extraction arms<\/a>). In addition to their fume extraction efficiency, cartridge units feature a <strong>cleanable filtration system<\/strong> that reduces maintenance costs.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Industrial dust collectors: what other criteria should you take into account when making your choice?<\/h2>\n\n<p>There are a number of other factors to consider when choosing the <strong>right model<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The<strong> frequency of use of the industrial dust collector <\/strong>(number of hours of use): we won&#8217;t recommend the same solution for a factory that needs a vacuum system running 24 hours a day versus a workshop with occasional needs. This criterion not only determines the dust collector&#8217;s suction capacity, but also its filtration and cleaning system (automatic or manual filter cleaning) and its start-up (automatic or manual start-up cycle).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong> User-friendliness of dust collection equipment<\/strong>: depending on the range of dust collectors chosen, several systems will make it easier to use. One example is the cleaning system, which can be manual (cleaning by shaking, using brushes or compressed air, triggered manually when the unit is switched off, etc.), or fully automated (cleaning by compressed air jet depending on filter cartridge clogging).  <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/obera.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/image-depoussiereur-dustomat-4-24-768x1024.webp\" alt=\"dust collector dustomat 4 24\" class=\"wp-image-26177\" style=\"width:251px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/obera.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/image-depoussiereur-dustomat-4-24-768x1024.webp 768w, https:\/\/obera.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/image-depoussiereur-dustomat-4-24-225x300.webp 225w, https:\/\/obera.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/image-depoussiereur-dustomat-4-24-1152x1536.webp 1152w, https:\/\/obera.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/image-depoussiereur-dustomat-4-24.webp 1512w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Did you know?
