Introducing the IDA (In-Line Deflagration Arrester) DeltaMAXX Safety Filter
Jackson Center, PA, United States, 10/01/2015 /SubmitPressRelease123/
Imperial Systems, Inc. has tested the CMAXX Dust Collector with IDA DeltaMAXX filters and found that in all tests, the filters could isolate a deflagration and stop a flame front. Without any trace of flame or spark transmission downstream of the IDA filters or in the clean air plenum, the results proved that the CMAXX is one of the best dust collectors in the industry!
Using a CMAXX without explosion venting, the unit’s body was also tested to withstand the maximum pressure that could be reached during an explosion. The entire explosion diverted through the IDA DeltaMAXX filters, which showed no sign of deformation. The internal cages of the filters remained in perfect shape and the seals were not deformed or melted whatsoever. All testing, proving that the CMAXX can be used as a flame front deflagration arrestor/arrester when used in conjunction with IDA DeltaMAXX filters, is backed by third party testing. Reports and test results can be provided upon request.
While the test was performed without explosion vents to demonstrate worst-case scenarios, collectors should always be vented properly in real world applications. If the CMAXX outlet is vented into the atmosphere, it should be “discharged into a safe, unrestricted, outdoor location, and the discharge shall not be obstructed” (See NFPA 69 Chapter 12). In an application where the CMAXX is vented through a pipe or duct, the duct must be designed to withstand the pressure of an explosion. These pressures can be provided at the time of engineering. Imperial Systems can have your dust tested prior to final engineering to determine the proper venting calculations.
The CMAXX Advantage
Other similar systems have been tested, but all require additional after filters. Combining the CMAXX with IDA DeltaMAXX filters eliminates the need for expensive after filters that can prematurely blind, causing issues including:
• High pressure drop
• Increased filter expenses
• Additional labor to install
• Decreased headroom for indoor applications
• Enlarged filter housings
In addition, the IDA DeltaMAXX filters work off of the same primary cleaning system that the CMAXX uses, ensuring that the filters are consistently cleaned during operation. Similar systems that use after filters do not have any means to online cleaning.
The CMAXX with IDA DeltaMAXX filters can also work with inline HEPA filters if required or a remote HEPA system. Similar systems that have been tested and require remote HEPA after filters must be mounted to the top of the collector, limiting the flexibility of the unit.
