Camfil offers Handte EM Profi emulsion mist collectors

Designed to clean up contaminants generated during milling, drilling, tapping, turning, grinding and other machining processes that use emulsion mist coolants, Handte EM Profi emulsion mist collectors from Camfil APC (Air Pollution Control) are said to offer the highest available collection efficiencies, plus the ability to run 24/7 for reduced maintenance, service ease and lower operating costs.

The EM Profi collector uses long-life coarse and fine filter demisters, followed by a final-stage HEPA filter with combined efficiencies of 99.9% on particles of 0.3 micron and larger. This is much higher than capture efficiencies achieved with fiberglass V-bag filters, which lose efficiency as media becomes saturated, says Camfil.

In addition, a patented automatic sprayer counteracts emulsion ‘clumping’.

Basic modules can handle air volumes from 1,700 to 8,000 cfm.
