Configuration Options for Extraction Walls and Panels
Extraction walls and panels can be adapted to the working width, type of emissions, existing filtration technology, and spatial conditions. The goal is to achieve the most uniform coverage possible over the area actually required, without moving unnecessarily large volumes of air.
Typical configuration ranges
ā Width and height of the coverage area
ā Connection diameter and connection position
ā Side walls and shields
ā built-in or external fan
ā Filter and Pre-Separation Concept
ā Installation method and workplace integration
ā Safety and ATEX requirements
Do not unnecessarily expand the coverage area
The unit size should match the actual work area. A significantly larger area requires a higher flow rate and can increase the required fan power as well as energy consumption.
Common Planning Mistakes
ā Working distance set too far
ā Coverage area increased without air flow testing
ā Pipe network and filter resistance not taken into account
ā Turbulent airflows in the workplace are underestimated
ā Sparks and dust type were incorporated too late in the planning process
FAQ
Which size should I choose?
As large as necessary for the actual work area, but not unnecessarily larger.
When are side walls useful?
If they reduce turbulent flows and direct the emissions more precisely toward the collection area.
Can a system be expanded later?
Retrofitting is possible depending on the design and available air capacity reserve.
When must ATEX be taken into account?
If the risk assessment for the specific dust or process situation calls for appropriate measures.
Configuration tailored to the process
The work area, contaminants, distance, piping system, and filtration unit should be designed together.
