Wet Dust Collectors for the Aerospace and Aviation Industries

The aerospace and aviation fields process many materials in diverse ways, many of which can produce dust, smoke, fumes, and harmful particulates that pose dangers to equipment operators and other employees. The best way to help mitigate such hazards is to use wet dust collectors in your facilities, as these systems can draw in particles and assist in keeping them contained.

Dangers Created by Common Aerospace Applications

• Grinding and deburring – These processes can release a range of particulates into the air, including combustible metals like aluminum, titanium, magnesium, zinc, niobium, zirconium, and alkali metals, all of which can be harmful if someone were to breathe them.
• Sanding and finishing – Due to the high-friction aspects of these processes, they produce plenty of harmful dusts which can pose both health risks and combustion risks, depending on the material.

The dust, fumes, smoke, and dangerous particulates generated from these processes can lead to health problems, so having effective filtration systems and wet dust collectors in place is essential.

Protect Your Employees and Facility with Wet Dust Collectors

Wet dust collectors often are the ideal solution for aerospace and aviation operations that use processes that produce dust and particulate matter. Wet dust collectors use a cyclonic design that features venturi systems to capture harmful particles via air pressure and water.

Particles are drawn into the system and then forced upward via a wave motion created by a stream of water. The contaminants are then separated at a collector sump, where they settle within the system. Not only do these systems help clear away materials harmful to operators, but they also significantly reduce fire risk by extinguishing potential sparks by way of the units’ use of water.

Our wet dust collectors are all made in the USA and feature attributes like:

• Precision-balanced, stainless-steel impellers
• Front doors that are easy to open
• Sludge rakes
• Automatic fill systems
• Foam panels with sound suppression
