Environmental Work Cell
The Intercept EWC series is a self-contained environmental work cell designed for dust containment in large-area applications where source capture is not practical. Using high-efficiency cartridge filtration and internal reverse pulse cleaning, the system continuously cleans booth air and returns filtered air back into the plant environment for reliable dust control in enclosed work areas.
No two applications are the same, and your dust collection system shouldn’t be either. ProVent designs and manufactures custom engineered dust collection systems built specifically for your process, facility, and performance requirements.

The Intercept EWC is a modular cartridge dust collection system built to support booth enclosures of various sizes and configurations. Available in models from EWC-4 through EWC-16, the series covers airflow from 4,000 to 16,000 CFM and can be used as a single unit or in multiple-unit configurations for larger containment challenges. Removable aluminum louvered intake panels provide full access to the filter chamber, while collected dust is discharged into slide-out drawers below for easier maintenance.
Intercept EWC Range
- EWC-4 to EWC-16 models
- 4,000 to 16,000 CFM
- 1,800 to 4,200 lbs dry weight
- 3 to 25 HP motors
- 1,080 to 5,400 sq. ft. of filter media
The Intercept EWC is designed for processes where dust must be contained within a larger booth or work cell rather than captured directly at the source. It is well suited for grinding, sanding, polishing, machining, and other industrial applications where open-area dust generation requires reliable booth containment, high-efficiency filtration, and continuous air cleaning.
Common Applications
- Grinding
- Sanding
- Polishing
- Machining
- Large-area dust containment
- Booth enclosure applications
The Intercept EWC combines modular booth flexibility, high-efficiency cartridge filtration, and convenient maintenance access in one environmental work cell. Standard NANO Web fire retardant filters provide MERV 15 performance, while internal reverse pulse cleaning assemblies help maintain airflow and extend filter life. Lightweight removable aluminum louvered intake panels allow fast filter access, and slide-out dust drawers simplify dust removal from the booth side for easier day-to-day operation.
Standard Features
- Self-contained modular cartridge dust collection system
- NANO Web fire retardant filters rated MERV 15
- Internal reverse pulse filter cleaning
- Removable aluminum louvered intake panels
- Slide-out dust drawers
- Pulse controls in NEMA 12 cabinet
- Vertically mounted filters with CAM-locking assemblies
- Multiple voltage options available
The Intercept EWC series is designed to provide consistent booth air cleaning across a wide range of enclosure sizes. Standard models deliver 4,000 to 16,000 CFM at 3 inches wg, with motor sizes from 3 to 25 HP and dry weights from 1,800 to 4,200 pounds. Depending on the model, filter media area ranges from 1,080 to 5,400 square feet, and all units use NANO Web fire retardant MERV 15 cartridge filters with on-demand and off-line pulse cleaning. The system requires 80 to 90 PSI compressed air with a 1/2-inch NPT coupling.
Performance Range
- 4,000 to 16,000 CFM
- 3 in. wg static pressure
- 3 to 25 HP motors
- 1,800 to 4,200 lbs dry weight
- 1,080 to 5,400 sq. ft. of filter media
- 80 to 90 PSI compressed air
Standard Construction
- AMCA rated backward curved single width mild steel fan
- 12, 10 ga. and 3/16 in. solid welded housing
- NEMA 12 start / stop motor controls
- Digital sequencer / timer with internal DP switch
- NANO Web fire retardant MERV 15 filter media
- Durethane DTM external coating
The Intercept EWC can be configured with several options to improve material handling, reduce noise, and support booth customization. Available upgrades include a crane slot for overhead lifting access, an exhaust silencer for lower sound levels, and booth sound quilts to help absorb and contain noise inside the enclosure. These options allow the environmental work cell to be matched more closely to the application, workspace, and operator needs.
Available Options
- Crane slot
- Exhaust silencer
- Booth sound quilts
