Areas of Excellence Camfil APC filtration experts are trained in combustible dust issues, and can help customers find explosion protection solutions that are both compliant and cost-effective. The company also offers dust testing and ASHRAE Standard 199 testing services to provide meaningful data and performance information prior to installation. Testing helps phar- maceutical manufacturers determine the industrial dust collector con- figuration and filtration components that will best meet their needs. This testing is desirable for any company involved in processes with stringent contaminant threshold limits in the work environment or a PM 1, 2.5 or 10 requirement.

Airport Road Jonesboro, AR 72401 870-933-8048 800-479-6801 filterman@camfil.com camfilapc.com/pharma Major Products The popular Farr Gold Series Camtain dust collector delivers safe-change capability and ease of maintenance. It can be used in a variety of pharmaceutical dust collection applications and is ideal for high-efficiency filtration that doesn't require product reuse. This collector exceeds OSHA mandates for factory air quality, and when equipped with a Camfil explosion vent, it offers the highest explosion protection in accordance with NFPA and ATEX standards. It has been surrogate-tested to ensure optimum protection from highly potent, toxic or allergenic dusts. The Quad Pulse Package PX is a small footprint dust collector that can be positioned on the production floor or suite. It uses a segmented cleaning process to keep the primary filter cartridge operating continu- ously so manufacturing is not inter- rupted. The unit reduces energy costs by cleaning filters at low pressure. A secondary HEPA filter provides 99.995% filtration efficiency to capture the finest dust particles. The QPP also features pressure-resistant construction, built-in NFPA and ATEX-compliant explosion protec- tion, integrated fan, quiet operation and bag-in/bag-out filter change-out option. Markets Served Camfil APC supplies dust collection equipment worldwide to pharmaceutical manufacturers. Common applications include tableting, coating, drying, mixing, blending, granulation, filling, pack- aging and general room ventilation.
