Industrial hoods and uptake systems

Hoods make safe various operations typical of industrial processes: grinding, polishing and cleaning of components of various dimensions. Hoods may also be adapted to various working zones: mixers, agitators, sifters, reactors or other.

Designing the right suction system is of utmost importance in order to obtain the highest removal efficiency and to optimize the amount of air aspired by the fans.
Tecnosida^®, on the basis of the inspection of a specialized technician, can design hoods of various dimensions and geometry which are perfectly suited to your production process. The design of hoods is made taking into account:

• the peculiarities of your production process;
• available spaces;
• the characteristics of the specific pollutant;
• regulatory requirements;
• sizing and arrangement taking into account the ergonomic importance of the operator.

The choice of a proper fan is fundamental in order to guarantee an high efficiency and low energy consumptions. The main issues that Tecnosida^® takes into account in the design phase are:

• the capture speed desired. This parameter depends on the type of pollutant to be treated and on the volumetric flow rate;
• the temperature of the airflow, that can be stable or variable;
• the design of the pipelines, that is made on the basis of:

1. geometry of the industrial building;
2. position of the filtering equipments;
3. where hoods are placed in the production process.

On the basis of these data the pressure drops in the suction system can be determined. These data, in union with the desired volumetric flow rate, are used by Tecnosida^® to dimension the most suitable centrifugal fan.

Tecnosida^® is a perfect partner for planning and execution of ordinary and extraordinary maintenance services required to :

• Verify hoods proper functioning
• Keep high filtration efficiency
• Reduce economic and energetic wastes
• Comply with safety and environmental rules and regulations
