At Syvertsen, we understand there are different needs for different applications; therefore we are not a one-size-fits-all company. We offer a variety of cost-effective Dust Collection Systems, which can be custom made to your specifications. We work with DShay Air Systems in Maine. See below for additional product information.

It’s time to clear the air about what’s important in dust extraction. We hope these facts are helpful to you.

Filters  

Here’s a simple equation to remember:

Dirty filters reduce filtering capacity and suction ability. Worn or ripped filters allow dust to escape into the workplace. Fine dust needs more filter area than medium or coarse dust.

These are just three good reasons to talk to Syvertsen. We can help with filter bags made from the best materials available.

Ducting: Maintain optimum air flow and efficient performance with quality piping and fittings from Syvertsen. Instead of making due with pipes designed for stoves, furnaces or air conditioners, be sure to use ducting designed for dust collection. To prevent air/dust seepage, always caulk and seal all sections of the duct system.

Materials: Ask the experts at Syvertsen! Extra precautions should be taken in the following areas:

•  never mix materials that can be dangerous in combination in the same dust collection system, i.e., wood and metal
•  explosion venting should be used when collecting aluminum dust due to its highly explosive nature
•  dust from MDF, concrete, stone or sanding operations can be very fine; a low air to cloth ratio is required to provide adequate filtration
•  asbestos dust should be exhausted to outside the workplace

Sizing: Let’s get specific. What do you need in the way of dust collection? Syvertsen can analyze the CFM requirements for each machine and manufacture a system for any application. This system can be designed for 60 to 100% capacity. We match the type, size, speed and location of the blower to the type and size of the dust and filter media.
