KICE INDUSTRIES and zero dust accumulation. All VigiFlap explosion isolation valves are 100 per cent NFPA-compliant when ordered with the CP04 intrinsically safe control panel and dust level sensor. www.bossproductsamerica.com inches in diameter. The BBD can resist a vented dust collector explosion reaching a Pred of five psi (0.35 bar) for dusts with a Kst of up to 200 bar-m/second. This range provides safe operation for a large range of deflagrable dusts used in industry. When comparing the options of using a passive mechanical system or an active chemical suppression system, the mechanical systems are perceived to have less maintenance costs due to simplicity in function, design, training requirements, and the low frequency of inspections. With a mechanical BBD, mill staff do not need specialized training or tools when inspecting and keeping maintenance records for NFPA compliance, as they would with an active chemical system. This results in more up-time, allowing for increased production. Allied’s BBDs are built in Canada and designed for easy installation, inspection, and maintenance. The instrumentation meets North American standards to easily integrate into a plant or mill PLC system and is available in Class 2 Div 2. A combination of Allied BDD and an Allied’s NFPA certified rotary feeders can provide NFPA-compliant passive isolation for large sized systems. www.alliedblower.com BOSS PRODUCTS AMERICA C AFS ENERGY Kice Industries has introduced a new baghouse filter to its product line, the Kice GR Filter. The new and improved design will result in lower energy consumption and extended filter bag life. The new filter contains a patented auto-timing mechanism that does not require mechanical adjustment to ensure proper reverse air timing for cleaning. It has a standard temp rating of 150 degrees F with a max temp option up to 300 degrees F . The filter also has low energy requirements with a 7.5-hp reverse air cleaning blower. www.kice.com BOSSTEK AFS Energy offers a rough mill 65,000 filtered dust collection system, featuring pre-cleaning cyclones with a closed-loop pneumatic material transfer ductwork, spark detection and extinguishing system, and pneumatic material transfer system. The company has installed he system at Peerless Bin, with plant return air ductwork with summer/winter dampers.

The DustBoss Atom from BossTek is a fan-less, self-contained unit that incorporates remote control and 4G LTE telematics technologies to deliver an unprecedented combination of suppression and monitoring. The Atom is well-suited to biomass handling, bulk material processing, demolition projects, recycling operations, transfer stations, ports/shipping applications, quarrying/crushing, concrete curing and even indoor operations where significant air movement may be undesirable. www.bosstek.com ALLIED BLOWER M Y CM | FROM DESIGN TO CONSTRUCTION, LET FWS BRING YOUR PROJECT TO LIFE!
