New Dust and Fume Collector Delivers High Performance for Small Airflow Applications



Jonesboro, Ark., June 2009- Farr Air Pollution Control has introduced a new Gold Series® GS4M Mini dust collector that controls emissions from small airflow applications up to 2,000 cfm. It incorporates the best features of Farr's premium Gold Series cartridge collectors - rugged construction, durability, high filtration efficiency and ease of service - into a compact and competitively priced unit ideal for capture of dust and fumes from laser cutting tables, welding stations and many other small airflow processes in the full range of manufacturing industries. The collector's extremely quiet performance and small footprint make it ideal for indoor applications, especially where noise and/or space constraints are a concern.

The collector is a fully assembled and pre-wired unit complete with a low-noise fan (<70dB), controls, motor starter, filters and cleaning system. It contains four HemiPleat® flame retardant filter cartridges with 788 total sq. ft. of media rated at 99.99 percent efficiency on 0.5 micron particles (MERV 12). HemiPleat technology has won multiple industry awards for its innovative "open-pleat" design that delivers longer cartridge service life at reduced pressure drop. The automatic, reverse pulse cleaning system is activated by an on-demand control panel that ensures more efficient cleaning and optimizes cartridge life. A safety monitoring filter is also included to allow recirculation of the filtered air downstream of the collector for energy savings.

The Gold Series GS4M collector uses a 3 horsepower fan motor designed to handle 1,000 cfm at 9" w.c. or 2,000 cfm at 5" w.c. static pressure. The footprint of the collector is approximately 38" square with a height of less than 8 ft. Maintenance features include a spark trap inlet for fire prevention, easy-to-remove aluminum dust drawers, and a cam-lock system that allows fast and easy cartridge removal with no tools required. An optional explosion vent is available for combustible dust applications. Different filter media, inlet configurations, a dust hopper and leg support structure, aluminum and stainless steel flex ducts, and a spark-resistant flex hose are among the many other available options.
