MistBuster 500 Offers Convenience in Complying with
NIOSH Criteria for Machining Fluid Mist
The new MistBuster 500 makes it easier than ever
and less costly to avoid employee overexposure to
metalworking fluids.
NIOSH has identified a number of health risks associated with overexposure
to metalworking fluids. These risks include hypersensitivity pneumonitis, as well as cancer to the skin and other organs. The
compact and lightweight MistBuster 500 reduces airborne concentrations of
metalworking fluids in your workplace.
The MistBuster 500 really is different.
Vibration free, it offers more precise and repeatable machining.
Vibration from the old (and noisy) centrifugal units was unavoidable when
residue accumulated on the impeller. With the new MistBuster 500, the
air is cleaned before reaching the impeller. With the old
centrifugal mist collectors, the impeller is an air cleaner. A dirty out-of-balance impeller
creates vibration, which is translated to CNC and customers' parts.
This results in expensive scraping of parts that could otherwise have been
in spec.
Centrifugal Mist Eliminators require expensive
bearing maintenance at least once a year. Moreover, they do not remove
the fine mist and smoke particles generated by pressurizing the coolant and
high spindle speeds. If a filter is used, it must be a high efficiency
filter in order to be effective on the fine mist. These filters are
effective; however, they plug up quickly and must be replaced.
Traditional electronic air cleaners often need periodic cleaning. Impingers are effective on large droplets, but let the small ones through.
The MistBuster 500 is a totally different approach which works on both large
and small droplets. The patent pending model allows precipitation and
impingement to work with minimal airflow so the coolant mist (oil or
synthetic) is able to be recycled.
The new MistBuster 500 avoids the problems
associated with centrifugal units and makes it easy to meet the stringent
NIOSH criteria for metalworking fluids by using the most recent developments
in air cleaning technology. Traditional assumptions no longer apply in
today's high output environment which creates atomized mists. The new MistBuster 500 uses an innovative application of proven electronic and
impinger technology to radically reduce air cleaner size, as well as,
minimizing purchase and operating costs without sacrificing efficiency and
performance. Optional mounting system allows the MistBuster 500 to be
connected to a ducted application when direct cabinet mounting is not
feasible. This new mounting system thereby allows the facility
operator to provide optimum control of metalworking fluid mists with a
maximum of installation flexibility.
Other advantages include:
-
Clean Air - Eliminates the haze associated with
most metalworking operations
-
Safety - Reduces the risk of accidents caused by
slippery surfaces
-
Metalworking Fluid Savings - The MistBuster 500
collector collects and returns the metalworking fluid to your machine rather
than venting it to the atmosphere. It works on all coolant mists.
-
Cleaning Cost Savings - Uncontrolled
metalworking fluid mist will soil machinery, floors and ceilings
-
Quiet Operation - No screeching which is
characteristic of old centrifugal models
-
High Efficiency - Even on pressurized coolant
applications where centrifugals are ineffective
-
Negligible Maintenance - Unlike high maintenance
centrifugal units
-
Self-Cleaning - No filters to replace
Sized right for your equipment, the MistBuster
500 gives you unparalleled air cleaning performance and maximum cost
effectiveness.
