Three Benefits of an Air Filtration System




We wouldn’t be in business if we didn’t fill a need, and for ATMOS360, that need is the need for cleaner air, safer air and healthier air.  Haven’t you heard?  It is the ultimate commodity in 2016.

Dust doesn’t sit too pretty on the lungs, and in some cases, can, over time, lead to any number of dust-related diseases such as asbestosis, silicosis, and farmer’s lung, to name a few.

So what we do serves a purpose, and aligns well with our mission to provide leading-edge, timely and cost-effective air systems solutions to our clients.

In reducing dust, our air filtration systems make for a more health-friendly workplace.  Here are three ways that an air filtration system can benefit your facility.  Air filtration systems can:


1. Improve air quality If you’ve ever been covered in hives just minutes after starting your work day, then you understand how even something as minute as an allergy to dust can really lead to a very bad day from an allergic reaction.  ATMOS360 air filtration systems work to get rid of dust, odor, and other particulates circulating in the air that your employees might be allergic to.  And more so, dust and other particulates can, over time, lead to a deterioration in one’s respiratory health.


2. Keep production floors clean  It might seem inconsequential, but everyone notices when a floor, control panel, production equipment, or quality station doesn’t look its best because it is covered with a layer of dust.  It’s generally not a big deal, but something that employees and potential clients will notice as they’re either working or meeting with you.  It is a small detail that could speak volumes about your company, without you actually saying a word yourself.  So consider investing in an air filtration system for its added benefits, such as keeping dust to a minimum in the air and off production floor and equipment.


3. Maintain work productivity  According to this article in the journal Indoor Air, indoor air quality that is poor can reduce worker productivity from 6 to 9%.  It might not sound like much, but consider what this dollar amount looks like.  Even if you are a one-person operation, the amount could very well be significant.  An air filtration system will help to get rid of dust and keep fresh air circulating, and employee morale will stay level, rather than drop.


An air filtration system is a great way to take preventive measures that can not only keep your facility healthfully solvent, but also clean.  We now invite you to take a look at some of our products to see how they can help your employees to put their best feet forward.

Why you don't need explosion protection on drum filters

Why you don't need explosion protection on drum filters We at  ATMOS360   are in the business of engineering and manufacturing dust collection systems and equipment. As we develop the scope for new systems, as well as upgrades to existing systems, we must evaluate the options for the use of a baghouse filter versus a drum filter. The Need for Explosion Protection One important factor is the need for explosion protection. The cost of an explosion protection system can add as much as $100,000 to the cost of filtration equipment. The need to provide explosion protection on a baghouse filter is typically straightforward and, in most cases, is needed. Drum filters, however, are a different animal and for some installations, explosion protection is not required. Typically drum filters have rounded floors and inlet ductwork designed to provide a low sweeping inlet. This keeps the floor clean and minimizes the amount of material within the dirty air plenum.

Troubleshooting Fan Speeds

Troubleshooting Fan Speeds Let’s say you are out in the field doing some troubleshooting on an air system fan, or any other type of motor-driven sheave (pulley) system, and you need to determine fan revolutions per minute or RPMs.   The easiest way is to measure the RPM with your tachometer.  You reach into your tool bag only to remember that you let a team member borrow it and they have not yet returned it.  Not to worry because you always have a backup-plan – math! You can use the following formula to determine the fan RPM: Find These Variables ·                      Record the motor RPM from the motor tag ·                      Measure the motor (driver) sheave diameter in inches ·                      Measure the fan (driven) sheave diameter in inches Example Problem Motor RPM from the motor tag - 1750 RPM Motor (driver) sheave diameter – 10.0” Pitch Diameter (P.D.) Fan (driven) sheave diameter – 14.0” P.D Remember, if you k

5 Reasons Why You Need a Dust Control System Within manufacturing processes, there are times when production equipment generates dust that can prove difficult to eliminate. Because of this, the manufacturing industry must apply dust control methods to these dust generating processes. The top five reasons for implementing dust control methods into your processes 1. Improve the quality of the product ·                      Reduce or eliminate unwanted dust on the product 2. Reduce employee exposure ·                      Improve employee health by reducing the dust concentration in milligrams per cubic meter (mg/m3) 3. Reduce equipment process safety risks ·                      Dust build-up on equipment could become a fire hazard ·                      Dust build-up on surrounding equipment/building area increases a secondary explosion risk 4. General housekeeping ·                      Commonly, process dust migrates from the line and co
