Food, Feed & Sugar Industry

Filtration solutions suited to hygiene, combustible dust risk, and maintenance access on flour, feed, sugar, starch, grain, and packaging lines. Dust load, operating temperature, maintenance access, and emission targets at the process points determine the product selection.

Food, Feed & Sugar Industry equipment scope

Filter, fan, filter bag, filter cage and auxiliary equipment selection by process

In food, feed, and sugar plants, flour/starch/sugar dust, grain husk, and additives carry both hygiene requirements and combustible dust risk. Filters, air handling equipment, antistatic media, stainless contact surfaces, and enclosed conveying equipment are selected with product safety in mind.

Process filtration, fan, and equipment scope for the Food, Feed & Sugar Industry

Process-based system approach

The filter housing, fan, ductwork, filter element, pulse-jet system and discharge/conveying equipment are not independent of one another; they are evaluated as components of the same operating point.

Information clarified before quoting

  • Product/dust: Flour, sugar, starch, feed, and additive characteristics
  • Explosion data: Kst/Pmax and zone classification
  • Hygiene: Cleaning, food contact, and cross-contamination requirements
  • Airflow: Machine aspiration and transfer air
  • Moisture/adhesion: Product moisture and ambient conditions

How do we determine capacity and technical specifications?

Exact capacity is not set by a catalog name; it is determined by process flow rate, system pressure, temperature, material/dust behavior and discharge continuity.

Site risks

Issues we specifically check during quoting and site surveys

These are not success percentages; they are risks that must be verified on site to select the right filter, fan and auxiliary equipment.

01

Dust escaping at the elevator head

02

Accumulation of flammable dust

03

Caking in damp sugar/flour dust

04

Cross-contamination and difficult cleaning
