Industrial Ventilation

Understanding Dust Collector System Design

Description

Fundamental knowledge of effective, economical industrial ventilation practices and design techniques through the established principles found in the ACGIH Industrial Ventilation manual. The program will build from standard air flow physics into the development of a complete dust collection system. This program will base all calculations on standard air.

Objectives

To provide a fundamental, basic knowledge of industrial ventilation design by the “velocity pressure" method. You will learn to select appropriate exhaust devices and hoods, determine air volume and minimum duct velocity, how to size duct, and system static pressure for fan selection.

Target Audience

This program is intended for plant engineers, industrial hygienists, sales engineers, sheet metal contractors, corporate project engineers, mining engineers, and anyone involved in industrial ventilation system design, maintenance and performance.

Prerequisite

Trainees must bring to class the textbook, Industrial Ventilation: A Manual of Recommended Practice for Design, 30th Edition, which needs to be pre-purchased for $127.96 for ACGIH members and $159.95 for non-members. Purchase the most recent edition of the manual here.
