Red Dot system keeps particulates away
Sep 1, 2009 12:00 PM
Red Dot Corp. introduces the Red Dot Precleaner/Filter/Pressurizer with Gideon Technology, a powered filtration system designed to protect operators from harmful particulates and extend HVAC service intervals on machines with enclosed cabs. Applications include mining, construction, military, crash/fire/rescue, refuse, and other severe-service operations.
The Red Dot Precleaner/Filter/Pressurizer draws debris-laden air into a precleaner where the largest particles are removed and discharged back into the environment. Smaller particles are then captured using one of two filtration options: a high-capacity (HC) filter that provides a general level of protection (MERV 8), or a high-efficiency (HE) filter that can capture 99.97% of particles down to 0.3 microns. The HE option delivers High Efficiency Particulate Arresting (HEPA)-level filtration.
Air that passes through the precleaner and filter media can be used to pressurize the cab and prevent dirty air from blowing back into the re-circulation filter and into the cab vent.
The weight of the unit (11 pounds) and its rugged construction are added benefits.
