Food Powder Vacuum Selection Guide: Flour, Sugar, Starch, Cocoa, Spices & Allergen Dust
Food powders do not all behave the same. Use this guide to compare vacuum selection paths for flour, sugar, starch, cocoa, spices, crumbs, and allergen dust in food processing, bakery, ingredient, and packaging environments.
NFPA 660 Combustible Dust Housekeeping Review: Dust Layers, Area Classification & Vacuum Selection
A practical NFPA 660 housekeeping review for EHS, maintenance, and plant teams: measure dust layers, check area classification, review conductive accessories, and match the vacuum to the application.
NFPA 660 Vacuum Requirements for Combustible Dust
NFPA 660 vacuum guidance for combustible dust cleanup, including ordinary vs hazardous locations, dust collectors vs industrial vacuums, HEPA filtration, ATEX/Class II Div 2, grounding, and dust hazard analysis.
CASE STUDY – INDUSTRIAL BAKERY OVEN CLEANING
An industrial bakery replaced manual, high-temperature oven cleaning with an automatic vacuum system built around a PUMA 15 P unit and six vacuum arms. The solution removes crumbs, baking residues, and burnt flour from multi-deck ovens between batches, reducing changeover times, improving hygiene, and protecting product quality and operator safety.
CASE STUDY – ATEX CENTRAL VACUUM FOR GRAIN MILLS
An industrial grain mill in Poland installed an ATEX-certified centralized vacuum system with a Depureco PUMA 15 ATEX unit, dual pipelines, and 12 suction inlets to safely collect flour dust and grain residues across five floors, reducing explosion risk while improving hygiene, air quality, and overall plant safety.
CASE STUDY – CENTRAL VACUUM FOR DRY METAL CHIPS
Discover how four Depureco HF 300 stationary vacuums collect dry metal chips from CNC-machined tractor gearbox blocks, protecting sensitive surfaces, preventing blockages, and keeping production running smoothly.
CASE STUDY – ATEX CENTRAL VACUUM FOR PEAT DUST
See how an ATEX-certified centralized vacuum system with a CVS 150 Z22 unit, DV AIR 800 Z22 pre-separator, and 12 suction points safely vacuums fine peat dust and organic compounds across three floors in a pharmaceutical plant.
CASE STUDY – Industrial Dust Collector for Aluminum Swarf on CNC Cutting Machines
An aluminum profile cutting company needed to vacuum large amounts of aluminum swarf directly from a CNC cutting machine to avoid buildup, machine stoppages, and quality issues. This case study shows how a customized Depureco dust collector with a 4 kW fan, pneumatic discharge hopper, and M-class star filter keeps cutting lines clean, efficient, and productive.
Case Study: Central Vacuum System with Integrated Vibrating Screen
Case study: a modular ATEX Zone 22 vacuum system with cyclonic separator and vibrating screen sorts carbon residues by size and discharges into Big-Bags safely.
