Safe : Air-Powered Vacuum with
HEPA Filter
 Belleville,
NJ -- In response to one of our customers needs, VAC-U-MAX
created this 55 gallon twin venturi industrial vacuum
cleaner cover with HEPA filtration.
This
unit was designed to pick up hazardous dusty material in the
presence of solvent vapors. The solvent environment created
a potential explosion hazard, which required the vacuum to
be intrinsically safe. VAC-U-MAX constructed a vacuum to
operate on safe compressed air with anti-sparking stainless
steel construction and static-conductive dust filter.
Additionally the hazardous dust also required HEPA
filtration rated 99.97% efficient on particles as small as
0.3 micron. VAC-U-MAX also supplied a static-conductive
vacuum hose, which is chemically resistant to 99% of
industrial chemicals including solvents such as Toluene,
Xylene, etc.
In
liquid applications where HEPA filters are not a
requirement, this same unit can be equipped with a liquid
shutoff valve to pick up liquid solvents, such as Toluene,
Methanol, Xylene at rates up to 2 gallons per second.
A
pioneer in vacuum pneumatic conveying, VAC-U-MAX specializes
in the design and manufacture of pneumatic systems and
support equipment for the conveying, weighing, and batching
of dry materials. An equally important activity is the
design and manufacture of heavy-duty industrial vacuum
cleaners, which from small air- and electric-powered
drum-styled units to large electric- and diesel-powered
units.

Vibration Monitoring System for Conveyors
 Milliard,
OH -- The Balmac Model 191 Vibration Transmitter is
capable of measuring up to 25 inches per second of
vibration velocity on bulk handling conveyor systems.
When used with a Model 1112
Vibration Monitor, or other existing control system, the
Model 191 continuously monitors controlled vibration
levels required to move bulk product at optimum process
speeds. If vibration levels drop below or go above
operator selected preset limits, the system will trip
relays to automatically activate alarms and alert
operators to the problem.
Model 191 is intrinsically
safe and is listed by UL-Underwriters Laboratories for
use in hazardous locations (Listing ZTSZ). Class I,
Groups A, B, C and D; Class II, Groups E, F and G; Class
III, Divisions 1 and 2.
Balmac Inc. is a world class
