Whirl Wet Dust Collector

Wet Dust Collection for Aluminum Dust Tri-Mer brand Wet Dust Collectors

Aerospace metalworking shop chooses Tri-Mer for aluminum dust collection.

A high speed machining and grinding center specializing in aerospace projects specified a Whirl Wet for aluminum dust collection.

Whirl Wet has been a leading choice for the collection of particulate and fines from aluminum, magnesium, Monel, and titanium for decades, due to its elimination of explosion hazard. Aluminum material that is 420 microns and finer has high explosion potential, and the design of the Whirl Wet makes this a virtual impossibility.

Whirl Wet is a high efficiency industrial dust collector that thoroughly scrubs the dust and traps the particles for capture. Whirl Wet is also self-cleaning, and will not allow fine particulate to agglomerate as sludge on the exhaust vent interior – another important note applicable to aerospace applications. Whirl Wet operates in the 99%+ efficiency range for a wide range of micron sizes. It uses very little water, and requires only minimal quantities of make-up water.

This Whirl Wet is all-polypropylene; units are also manufactured in steel, stainless steel and engineered plastics.

This aluminum dust collection system is a Model H, and was supplied with an automatic timed drain down system that allows for automatic removal of collected material.
