Toxic Dust

Industrial vacuum systems for Toxic and Carcinogenic dust

Each type of toxic powder has #unique characteristics and risks. Inhalation or direct contact with these substances can pose a serious threat to both operators' health and the integrity of the working environment.
To ensure maximum safety and health in professional spaces, it is essential to eliminate the risk directly at the source. Delfin solutions are designed for the# cleaning, extraction, collection, and safe transport of hazardous dust#. Our systems simplify disposal and minimize handling, thereby reducing risks for operators.

Delfin provides targeted technologies for the management of various critical substances and harmful particulates:

Pharmaceuticals and chemicals

  • active ingredients (API)
  • cytostatics
  • hormones
  • pesticides
  • synthetic resins
  • isocyanates

Construction and minerals

  • asbestos
  • crystalline silica
  • quartz
  • cement dust
  • mineral wool
  • natural stone dust

Metals

  • heavy metals (lead, chromium, nickel)
  • welding fumes
  • manganese
  • arsenic

Batteries

  • lithium
  • cobalt
  • battery dust

Protect the health of your employees

The management of toxic dust requires HEPA absolute filtration systems to avoid any risk of inhalation. Don't compromise on safety.

Certified solutions for Toxic & Carcinogenic dust filtration

Delfin offers a complete range of certified industrial vacuum cleaners, designed to meet the specific needs of every production environment. From compact units for laboratories to centralized systems for large plants, each solution is engineered to ensure consistent performance and total safety from fine and harmful dust.

Safety Standards & class H Certifications for toxic dust

International safety standards require a preventive approach based on eliminating the risk at source, reducing operator exposure, and continuously monitoring dust emissions.

OEL, TLV, and TWA

define the occupational exposure limits that regulate the management of toxic dust in the workplace, establishing the maximum allowable concentration of hazardous substances in the air.

The IEC 60335-2-69 AA standard

defines the requirements for industrial extraction systems designed to maintain air quality below specified exposure limits. It establishes the correct correlation between the OEL of the specific hazardous dust and the filtration class of the system (L – low, M – medium, H – high).

The EN 1822 standard

regulates the performance parameters for HEPA absolute filters, typically used with the most hazardous dusts. For highly toxic dusts, OEB-classified containment solutions compliant with the SMEPAC guideline ensure maximum operator safety.

FAQ: Extraction of toxic and carcinogenic dust

Inhalation or direct contact with these substances can seriously harm both operators’ health and the working environment. The most effective solution is to eliminate the hazard at the source by extracting it immediately

It's a system certified for High Risk (Class H) environments, specifically for carcinogenic or pathogenic dusts with an Occupational Exposure Limit (OEL) < 0.1 mg/m³.
 

It captures 99.995% of micro-particles down to 0.18 microns. Every Delfin filter is individually tested to certify its actual performance before use.

It allows contaminated filters to be replaced while protected by a sealed containment bag. This prevents hazardous dust from dispersing into the air while protecting operators during maintenance.

Yes, we offer specific technologies for the remediation of asbestos, crystalline silica, cement, and quartz. We also handle heavy metals, welding fumes, and battery dust (lithium, cobalt).

We use the Endless Bag system, which collects dust in externally sealed bags. This way, operators never come into direct contact with hazardous material.
