QUARRIES & MINES

Mining and quarrying industries create significant volumes of dust in areas like crushing and screen houses, which can often contain high levels of silica which need to be contained and managed in order to meet stringent H&S standards.

Our clients use our industrial vacuum systems because of the incredible suction power a DISAB vacuum unit can generate. From a few microns up to several inches in diameter, our vacuum units are capable of removing all debris in a safe and fully contained way.

This means that our clients minimise the risk of dust exposure for operatives, save time on essential housekeeping tasks, and as a result save money through increased efficiency.

Compvac Features

From the cleaning nozzle to the hopper the whole of the CompVac system is fully enclosed, eliminating the risk of any of the collected dust escaping into the atmosphere, helping companies meet H&SE targets. The DISAB CompVac provides the suction power and ability to vacuum in the hard to reach nooks and crannies where dust builds up.

Compvac Overview

  • High suction capabilities, with 16.5kw of vacuum power.
  • Can pick up anything from fine dusts to debris up to 50mm in diameter.
  • Fully enclosed suction system allows even hazardous dusts to be collected safely
  • ATEX models available
  • Easy to manoeuvre by forklift

“The CompVac deals very effectively with waste material from a few microns up to 2-3 inches in diameter, which means we’re minimising the risk of dust exposure, so it’s improving our H&S standards on site. In turn that means we’re meeting and surpassing monthly internal Head Office inspections, and when customers do come to see the quarry site for themselves, they can see we’re taking really good care of the housekeeping, plant and staff. That’s why we’ve purchased our own CompVac™ for the quarry – it’s a far better cleaning solution all round.”

Imerys

“The BagVac™ demonstrated that it was actually more efficient at waste removal and collection than we’d hoped, due to the significant amount of suction power at the nozzle end for removing both very fine kaolin dust and quite chunky bits of kaolin brick. We proved our point to Imerys management, made our case for investment and have subsequently bought a BagVac™ for the plant.”
