Dust suppression made easy
WHEN it comes to dust suppression, there is no such thing as a one-size-fits-all solution.
The market has many choices available, and there are numerous deciding factors that require careful consideration, such as the type of dust, how it is being generated, and the available water supply.
With over 30 years’ experience in the formulation and execution of effective dust suppression and dust control solutions, Tecpro has helped clients to significantly improve their workplace safety, reduce the wear and tear on equipment, and to improve community relations by eliminating or reducing dust in the vicinity of the project.
Tecpro will be showcasing two of its best-performing dust controllers, the recently upgraded V22 dust controller, and the recently upgraded V12s silent dust controller, along with its heavy duty hose reels and spray nozzles, at AIMEX 2019.
V22 – for very large throwing distances
The new V22 is smaller and more compact than its predecessor.
Due to its ability to throw over 70m, the V22 is well-suited to open cut mines, recycling plants, ship loading facilities, materials storage and quarries.
The nozzle head and the externally mounted nozzle ring produce a fine water mist, which binds the dust particles and prevents them from spreading, without causing puddles.
The throwing distance of the inside nozzle head can be extended to a narrower range by switching off the turbine.
The angle of inclination can be adjusted from -18 degrees to + 40 degrees, and it can be set to a swing range of 350 degrees either by the user friendly remote, or it can be set automatically.
The V22 dust controller continues to be the only dust suppression unit that can use salt or saline water and it’s exclusively available from Tecpro Australia.
V12s – the quietest dust controller in the world
Like the V22, the silent V12s model has been upgraded, and there are significant improvements on its predecessor.
The biggest difference is the size. The much smaller V12s is easier to transport, easier to integrate into existing systems, and yet it has lost none of its stability and robustness in the face of difficult operating conditions.
The machine can be started and rotated much faster, the angles can be adjusted quicker, and there are three available water consumption speeds.
Due to its low noise levels, the V12s is ideal for city work, and other areas where noise levels must be taken into consideration.
It has applications in all types of quarries, warehouses, loading facilities and landfill, and can be installed on various mobile or fixed bodies.
Heavy duty hose reels
Some industries demand tough and durable equipment, but for some industries like mining, durable isn’t enough – they need extra heavy duty.
Tecpro is the supplier of a range of Mine Spec hose reels that delivers just this.
The reels are suitable for a ¼ – 1½in diameter hose, and can accommodate hose lengths from 15m to 100m.
The reels are designed and manufactured in Europe and use 50pc thicker stainless steel than most standard hose reels.
Each reel includes a spring rewind mechanism that makes it easy for operators to retract the hose after use, and are designed to withstand the toughest conditions and the roughest operators.
As well as being available in AISI 304 stainless steel, the reels are also available in 316 stainless steel, powder coated steel and cataphoric treated steel.
Spray nozzles
Whether it is flat fan spray nozzles, full or hollow cone nozzles, air atomising nozzles and everything in between, Tecpro has 30 years experience in spray nozzle engineering, performance, specification and design to help its customers choose the right nozzle for the job.
Tecpro represents PNR, an Italian manufacturer of spray nozzles, and supplies nozzles of the highest quality to ensure the best performance and durability.
Tecpro was formed in 1982, and has built its business upon long term relationships with clients and suppliers.
The company offers a broad range of technical expertise and a comprehensive knowledge of the spray nozzle industry that allows it to solve challenging nozzle and dust suppression problems that its competitors cannot.
