DUST & FUME EXTRACTION FEATURE CABINET HELPS CONTAIN DUSTS DURING TOOL CLEANING
Specialist dust extraction firm Dustcontrol UK has launched its second- generation DC Box - a purpose built cabinet that helps hire companies combat and contain harmful dusts when cleaning returned tools and equipment. The DC Box acts like a fume cupboard containing dust from equipment that is cleaned inside it and then filtering the air. Cleaning can be achieved using the integral air gun and vacuum suction hose, improving the lifespan of equipment and ensuring that any hazardous dusts are removed before further hire.
“There’s a huge requirement for this
among hire companies – something we’ve recognised and responded to,” comments general manager James Miller. “Equipment is placed into the box via a door and sliding tray. Three hand-hole openings on the front allow operators to handle the equipment inside during the cleaning process while a third functions as an air inlet.” The cabinet is equipped with a light that allows users to clearly see if equipment is clean while the tray has a rotating mesh top for ease of access and use. Large particles and other waste drops into a plastic bag at the base of the DC Box, helping with the efficiency of
the clean. An AirCube 500 is integrated into the system which means its HEPA H13 extraction capabilities constantly clean the air inside and remove smaller

airborne dust particles that can be generated during the cleaning process. “With hire companies equipment is often returned dirty which can generate large amounts of dust within hire depots,” says Miller. “The DC Box efficiently contains and extracts this dust, helping to improve the lifespan of the hire equipment while stopping the spread of airborne dust within the depot. It makes the whole process of cleaning the equipment much safer to undertake by reducing the potential hazards that handling such equipment can present and helps hire companies meet workplace exposure limits for dust.” Dustcontrol UK has developed a series
of mobile dust extractors and air cleaners specifically designed to separate fine and hazardous dusts including silica. Unlike most products which only use
M class filters Dustcontrol equipment uses HEPA H13 filters which guarantees that the products remove 99.97% of all particles greater than 0.3 micrometres from the air that passes through the equipment; air exhausted from the products is the cleanest it can be.
