Dust containment during pharmaceutical, food and chemical processing is vital. Any excess dust which is not properly captured can enter the working environment and compromise the safety of workers. Airborne dust particles can be extremely hazardous, hence the containment of this becomes vital.
The Uni-Dust cyclone helps contain this problem, whilst making product reintroduction or batch loss reconciliation possible. The Hanningfield cyclone is specifically designed for the recovery of waste powder from pharmaceutical OSD processes such as compression and encapsulation, typically capturing between 90 – 99% of waste powder.
With no filters and no moving parts, the Hanningfield Uni-Dust features a sanitary GMP stainless steel construction, assembled using only Tri-Clamps for fast and easy dismantling.
Uni-Dust: Dust Containment Cyclone
