When these parts are removed, quartz sand is released, which floats in the air as invisible fine dust and gradually settles on floors and machines. When the parts are subsequently cleaned and sanded, explosive aluminum dust is also released.   <\/p>\n<p>To counter this problem, we used a powerful <a href=\"https:\/\/www.absaugwerk.de\/en\/extraction-systems\/deduster\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">deduster<\/a> including explosion protection (ATEX)! With 11 kW and an air volume of 15,000 m\u00b3\/h, our system ensures effective dust extraction from the work booths and protects against the ignition of explosive aluminum dusts. \ud83d\udca5<\/p>\n<p>A special highlight is the rotary valve with Big Pack discharge, which enables continuous dust removal and alerts employees in good time when the Big Pack needs to be replaced.<\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udc49 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.absaugwerk.de\/en\/project\/ohm-haener-metallwerk-gmbh-co-kg\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Find out more about this exciting project and our customer Ohm &amp; H\u00e4ner<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n<div class=\"shariff shariff-align-center shariff-widget-align-center\" data-services=\"facebook\" data-url=\"https%3A%2F%2Fwww.absaugwerk.de%2Fen%2Fdust-in-the-foundry-an-invisible-problem%2F\" data-timestamp=\"1765207504\" data-hidezero=\"1\" data-backendurl=\"https:\/\/www.absaugwerk.de\/en\/wp-json\/shariff\/v1\/share_counts?\"><div class=\"ShariffHeadline\"><h5 style=\"font-size:16px\">TEILEN:<\/h5><\/div><ul class=\"shariff-buttons theme-round orientation-horizontal buttonsize-small\"><li class=\"shariff-button facebook\" style=\"background-color:#00857d;border-radius:10%\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer\/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.absaugwerk.de%2Fen%2Fdust-in-the-foundry-an-invisible-problem%2F\" title=\"Share on Facebook\" aria-label=\"Share on Facebook\" role=\"button\" rel=\"noreferrernoopener nofollow\" class=\"shariff-link\" style=\";border-radius:10%; background-color:#898989; color:#fff\" target=\"_blank\"><span class=\"shariff-icon\" style=\"\"><svg width=\"32px\" height=\"20px\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 18 32\"><path fill=\"#3b5998\" d=\"M17.1 0.2v4.7h-2.8q-1.5 0-2.1 0.6t-0.5 1.9v3.4h5.2l-0.7 5.3h-4.5v13.6h-5.5v-13.6h-4.5v-5.3h4.5v-3.9q0-3.3 1.9-5.2t5-1.8q2.6 0 4.1 0.2z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"shariff-button twitter\" style=\"background-color:#00857d;border-radius:10%\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/share?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.absaugwerk.de%2Fen%2Fdust-in-the-foundry-an-invisible-problem%2F&text=Dust%20in%20the%20foundry%20-%20an%20%28in%29visible%20problem%20%F0%9F%8F%B9\" title=\"Share on X (Twitter)\" aria-label=\"Share on X (Twitter)\" role=\"button\" rel=\"noreferrernoopener nofollow\" class=\"shariff-link\" style=\";border-radius:10%; background-color:#898989; color:#fff\" target=\"_blank\"><span class=\"shariff-icon\" style=\"\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" height=\"1em\" viewBox=\"0 0 512 512\"><!--!
