DECEMBER 2015 • E&MJ; 15 www.e-mj.com Controlling dust at excavation sites, mill trans- fer points and similar locations is a difficult challenge. If emissions are too high, workers and local residents may be at risk, and the EPA may curtail production schedules.

Our mining specialists can help you protect peo- ple and nature, boost productivity and reduce total cost of ownership. Key Products Farr Gold Series ® dust collector: This innova- tive high efficiency dust collector is uniquely suited to the mining industry because of its extremely rugged heavy-gauge construction: It features a compact modular design that optimizes field flexibility and integrates well with conveyor bin vents. Service benefits include easy access and fast, trouble-free filter change-out. Stack testing of the Farr Gold Series col- lector in mining applications has measured less than .0005 grains per cubic foot of emis- sions, about half the emissions level for which the collectors were permitted. The collector has a much smaller footprint than a conven- tional non-pleated baghouse and operates at lower pressure drop. The pleated filters are mounted vertically inside the collector, elimi- nating the problems of dust blinding and pre- mature failure that sometimes occur with hor- izontally installed filters. Camfil APC guarantees its dust collectors to meet EPA particle emission requirements. HemiPleat ® filter: Farr Gold Series collectors are equipped with the company's award-win- ning HemiPleat filter, which offers greatly extended service life and lower pressure drop than standard pleated filters—typically dou- ble the life at half the delta P. It is designed to release dust more readily from the filter during pulse cleaning and uses less com- pressed air for many applications. The standard HemiPleat media provides high efficiency (99.99% on 0.5 micron parti- cles and larger) and high moisture resistance. An ultra-high efficiency (99.999%) media is also available. And the HemiPleat® eXtreme nano fiber filter offers maximum filtration efficiencies, durability, and resistance to wear from pulse-cleaning.
