Granulated Sugar Processing

Highly charged sugar particles falling freely through air can cause the following problems:

1. Contamination of the filling area by highly charged sugar dust.

2. Painful static shocks to operators.

3. Attraction of other particles to the charged sugar causing contamination.

4. Static discharge in a potentially hazardous area. Sugar refineries are renowned as potential dust explosion hotspots.

Position a Model 930EX Hazardous Area blower above the filling station as shown. This will prevent the build up of static charges and thus solves the problems outlined above.

NOTE: EX POWER UNITS AND AIR SUPPLY FANS MUST BE SITUATED OUTSIDE THE HAZARDOUS AREA.

Model 930EX Blowers are designed and certified for use in hazardous areas (Zones I and II). BASEEFA Certification to EXs IIA T6 (SFA3009:1985).
