The compact HydroAIR Wet Dust Collector is available in stainless steel or galvanized steel construction. The downdraft table has a solid top and side collared inlets. This simple cross over design allows for economy and proven efficiency and success in 8000 CFM and smaller wet dust collectors. The high efficiency impeller type wet collector in stainless steel represents a long lived, economical wet collector at a low cost. Automatic Electronic Water Level Control is provided with a 5 probe design and multiple alert features (required for magnesium dust collection along with the 24/7 vent design).

The HydroAIR unit shown is a 3,000 CFM collector with standard blower options providing up to 4” external static pressure capability.

Automatic electronic water level control and motor controls/starters are standard unless otherwise directed by customer.
