Dust Control Technology (DCT) has released four new sizes of its dust suppression ring, designed to suit a range of conveyor sizes and discharge flows. The DustBoss® DB-RTM is designed for use at material discharge points, creating a virtual curtain around outflow for particle containment. The four new sizes include 76.2 cm, 121.92 cm, 137.16 cm and 182.88 cm models and DCT now offers nine standard sizes from 43.2 cm to 254 cm in diameter. The number and size of the atomizing nozzles vary by model, from 18 to as many as 85 on the largest ring, the DB-R 100. Water flows range from 3.25 GPM (12.3 LPM) to 52.95 GPM (200.44 LPM). An optional booster pump can also be added to increase water flow and pressure, and units can be equipped with a two-way valve to provide manual control over water flow.
DCT VP, Aaron Valncic said “The DB-R is designed for mounting at the end of conveyor belts to aid in dust suppression directly at the discharge point. The most effective approach to dust management is to address the source whenever possible, and the ring applies suppression right as the material leaves the conveyor or discharge chute.”
