| 02/09 Compressed Air Industry POWER PLANTS | RESOURCES FOR ENERGY ENGINEERS PRODUCT PICKS Industrial Vacuum Provides Savings The Nilfisk CFM SL vacuum series, which include the 3SL, 5SL and 5WSL, meet the twin concerns of cost and performance, featuring solid construction and strong performance at an affordable price. Lightweight and highly maneuverable, the SL Vacs are ideal for picking up powders, liquids, dust and debris. Featuring all the “bells and whistles” of higher-priced industrial vacuums, they are also available with HEPA filtration to capture 99.97% of particles, down to and including 0.3 microns. A unique release lever that lowers the wheeled collection container also makes disposal of collected debris a breeze. Like all Nilfisk CFM vacuums, the SL series is compatible with the company’s comprehensive line of hoses and accessories to suit a wide range of cleaning applications.

It is ideal for removing dust, particulates and shocks on pipe, cable, extruded shapes, hose, wire and more. The Super Ion Air Wipe uses a small amount of compressed air to entrain high volumes of room air. Two shockless ionizing points powered by a UL Listed 5kV power supply fills the airstream with static eliminating ions. That airflow attaches itself to the surface of the material running through the air wipe and is effective for many feet away from where it is mounted. The force of the wiping action can be controlled with an optional pressure regulator. Effective static neutralization will be produced with 5 psig. Higher pressure produces a more forceful wiping action and is most effective for high-speed processes and over long distances. The Super Ion Air Wipe has an aluminum construction that is lightweight and easy to mount using the tapped holes provided. Two sizes include a 2" (51mm) diameter that has an air consumption of 30 scfm and a 4" (102mm) with an air consumption of 50 scfm when powered at 80 psig. There are no moving parts to wear out. Prices start at $747.
