Dry filter spray booths

DESIGN PHILOSOPHY:

Our Spray booths are designed to provide the following:

i) Containment Separation and Filtration

· Prevent the escape of vapours into the workplace

· Prevent contamination of the workplace by overspray

· Protect the health of workers

· Draw overspray away from the operator

· Provide separation from sources of ignition, and prevent the spread of fire

· Prevent contamination of the work piece by dust from the work environment

· Filter the overspray from the air, and expel the air to atmosphere

In conforming with the requirements of the Health and Safety Executive, as detailed in their Guidance Note HSG 178, a velocity of 0.7 metres per second is maintained across the face of all our open fronted spraybooths. In the case of extraction systems, the extraction rate is calculated to achieve a theoretical airflow of around 0.4m per second down the length of the spray shop.

Our standard range of dry filter spray booths use a belt driven axial type fan, and noise levels will typically be below 85dBA inside the booth, and outside measured 1m away from the building at 1m above ground level.

We also offer as an option a centrifugal fan unit which will reduce noise levels to below 80dBA. This is in line with HSE’s first action exposure to noise at work requirements which were introduced in February 2006
