Environmental Work Cell
Each
Intercept™
EWC Series Environmental Work Cell is a self-contained,
modular cartridge dust collection system.
Sizes range from 4,000 – 16,000 CFM.
Designed to accommodate booth enclosures of various sizes, EWCs are used
in singular or multiple-unit configurations to solve dust containment
challenges for large-area applications where source capture is not
practical. The work area is continuously cleaned by MERV-15 cartridge
filters with filtration capabilities of 99% efficiency down to 0.5 micron. Cleaned
air is exhausted back into the plant environment. Booth enclosures are custom designed to meet
process requirements. The EWC features
internal reverse pulse filter cleaning assemblies, with nested diaphragm valves
and compressed air manifolds. The light-weight, torturous-path aluminum louvered front inlet panels are easily removed for full access to the filter chamber. Dust is captured in the slide-out drawers
below.
Features
This system is designed with ease-of-use in mind, ensuring that dust collection is as straightforward and efficient as possible for industrial environments. Each component is built for quick access, fast maintenance, and reliable performance, keeping the workspace safe and clean with minimal effort.
Removable Aluminum Louvered Intake Panels for Easy Filter Changes
The intake panels are constructed from durable aluminum, designed with louvers to optimize airflow while preventing larger particles from entering the system. These panels are easily removable, making routine filter changes quick and convenient, reducing downtime for maintenance. This feature ensures the system maintains its high performance without requiring complex disassembly.
Dust Drawers with Access from Booth Side
For further convenience, dust collection drawers are placed strategically for easy access from the booth side. This allows operators to quickly and safely remove accumulated dust without needing to disrupt other parts of the system. It simplifies the disposal process, making it both ergonomic and efficient, reducing the physical strain on the operators.
Pulse Controls with Magnahelic Gauge in NEMA 12 Cabinet
The system includes advanced pulse controls for automated cleaning of filters, which improves overall system efficiency and prolongs filter life. The Magnahelic gauge provides real-time feedback on the system's differential pressure, enabling operators to monitor filter conditions and determine when cleaning is needed. The controls and gauge are housed in a NEMA 12-rated cabinet, which offers protection against dust, dirt, and moisture, ensuring the control panel remains fully operational in harsh environments.
More Features
Filters Installed Via Dual-Rail “Single-Push” CAM-Locking Assemblies
The vertically mounted filters are installed using a dual-rail system, allowing for easy filter insertion and removal. The "single-push" CAM-locking assemblies provide a secure and simple way to lock filters into place. This feature allows for faster maintenance, as filters can be changed out quickly without requiring tools or complex procedures, improving operational uptime.
NANO Web, Fire Retardant – MERV-15 Filters
The dust collection system utilizes NANO Web technology in its MERV-15 rated filters. These filters are highly efficient, capable of capturing fine particles and dust while also offering a fire-retardant layer for enhanced safety in potentially hazardous environments. The MERV-15 rating ensures high filtration efficiency, capturing particles as small as 0.3 microns, providing cleaner air and a safer workspace.
Various Power Options Available: 208, 230, 460, and 575 Volts
This dust collection system is compatible with various power configurations, allowing for flexible installation across different industrial settings. Whether your facility operates on 208, 230, 460, or even 575 volts, the system can be configured to meet your power requirements, ensuring seamless integration into existing setups.
Intercept EWC Popular Options
Crane Slot
A crane slot can be integrated into ceiling panels of the EWC to facilitate the placement of heavy objects directly onto the deck surface. This slot is a precision-cut opening that allows the crane’s hook and rigging to pass through the ceiling panel, giving operators the ability to lift and position large, bulky items within the downdraft system enclosure.
This addition is particularly useful in industrial settings where heavy materials or equipment components need to be processed or assembled, as it reduces the need for manual handling, thereby enhancing safety and efficiency.
With the crane slot, operators can seamlessly position items onto the work surface without compromising the enclosure’s containment functionality. This integration also preserves the dust control effectiveness of the downdraft system, providing both practicality and adherence to clean air standards.
Silencer
Installing a silencer on the exhaust of the EWC series dust collector can significantly reduce the noise level, lowering it by approximately 7-9 decibels. This reduction makes a noticeable difference in industrial settings where equipment noise can contribute to an uncomfortable or even hazardous work environment.
Booth Sound Quilts
To reduce noise effectively in the EWC booth, consider installing sound quilts on the interior walls. Sound quilts are specialized, heavy-duty materials designed to absorb and dampen sound waves, significantly reducing the amount of noise that escapes the booth. By lining the walls with these quilts, the booth can contain a broader range of frequencies, from high-pitched sounds to deeper vibrations, making the environment outside the booth noticeably quieter. This solution not only enhances sound isolation but also improves the booth's acoustics, creating a controlled space ideal for sound-sensitive activities or machinery.
