FAQ
The particle size of our Leak Detection Powder is 3 microns.
We recommend using one pound (1 lb) of Leak Detection Powder for 1000 square feet of filter cloth. For metric calculations, please use 0.5 kg of Leak Detection Powder, per 100 m2 of filter cloth.
After injection of the powder, the fan should be run for at least 45 seconds, but no longer than one minute.
NO. we use a non-formaldehyde powder. Our Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) are available upon request.
Yes. Our Fluorescent Leak Detection Powder has a decomposition point of 660 degrees Fahrenheit (350 degrees Celsius). This means that our products will not melt in high heat applications.
W.H Kingsmill Ltd offers 9 different testing colours: Orange, green, pink, yellow, violet, lime, tangerine, red and invisible blue (white). Please contact us to determine which colours best suit your needs.
Start by introducing the Leak Detection Powder into the dirty air stream. The powder will travel through the leaking areas and accumulate on the clean side of the collector. All areas are then inspected with one of our ultraviolet lights. The built up compound will highlight leaks and identify future problem areas. Once repairs have been made, introduce a different colour into the dirty air stream and recheck for leaks. If no leaks are present, you should NOT see the second colour on the clean side of the collector.
Guardian Precoat (GPC) is a filter bag conditioning agent. It is a carefully engineered blend of porous, amorphous, silica powder which can be used in fabric filter dust collectors. GPC is used to condition both woven and felted filtration media prior to initial dust collector start up. Most filter media rely on a residual dust cake to accomplish the desired filtration efficiency. The introduction of a conditioning agent can provide the initial dust cake, needed to filter properly.
We recommend injecting a minimum of one pound (1 lb) per 20 square feet of filter cloth (1 kg per 4 m2 of baghouse filter cloth area).
Inject Guardian Precoat at a feed rate of 0.3 pounds/minute/1000 ACFM of reduced gas flow to the baghouse. If using the metric system, please use 0.136 kg/minute/28 ACMM of reduced gas flow to the baghouse.
Yes. Guardian Precoat has a softening point of 2000 degrees Fahrenheit (1093 degrees Celsius).
