Dust Extractor Twin Bag 230 volt

• Capturing airborne dust and fine particulate matter in food production areas.
• Extracting wood dust and shavings from woodworking machinery in food-safe environments.
• Managing dust generated during dry ingredient mixing or packaging processes.
• Collecting general workshop dust in maintenance areas adjacent to food processing.

Typical airflow volume

Units of this class commonly offer airflow volumes ranging from 1,500 to 3,000 cubic metres per hour (CMH).

Filter type

This type of extractor typically utilises fabric filter bags, often made from materials like polyester, for efficient particulate capture.

Collection capacity

Twin bag systems typically provide a combined collection capacity of 100 to 200 litres, depending on bag size.

Power supply

As specified, this unit operates on a 230 volt single-phase supply, which is common for smaller industrial equipment in the UK.

Motor power

For this class of equipment, motor power typically ranges from 1.5 kW to 2.2 kW (2 HP to 3 HP).

Inlet diameter

Common inlet diameters for twin bag extractors are between 100mm and 150mm, often with multiple ports or a single larger port.

Footprint

A twin bag unit typically requires a floor area of approximately 0.7m x 1.2m, with a height of around 2m.

• What kind of dust is this extractor suitable for?

  This type of extractor is generally suitable for dry, non-explosive dusts such as wood dust, food powders, and general industrial particulate. It is not designed for wet dusts or hazardous fumes.

Food processing waste management systems are valued for their ability to handle organic waste streams efficiently and support regulatory compliance. Buyers typically prioritize robust construction, reliability, and ease of maintenance when purchasing used units. The equipment's reputation centres on its importance for operational sanitation and waste reduction. When buying second-hand, inspectors should verify mechanical condition, check for corrosion or wear, and confirm documentation of regular servicing. Reputable systems typically demonstrate durability and consistent performance across varied food processing environments.
