Welcome to Arctic Air Solutions
Manufactured in the UK, The No 1 company for hazardous air cab filtration overpressure systems
We provide clients with the highest possible level of service anywhere in the area dedicated to finding solutions to customers requests delivering clean air for operator protection.
There are many industrial processes which involves the operators of machinery working in hazardous environments being subjected to harmful or deadly dusts and gases within the confines of an enclosed cabin, therefore it is important to take all possible precautions to ensure the operator is only breathing clean safe air. Harmful respirable dusts and noxious gases can enter the cabin either through the machines standard and inefficient air filters or through many of the holes through which cables and pipes are routed, once the hazardous contaminated air is inside the cab there is no defense to stop the operator from breathing it in through out the duration of the working shift and potentially causing life threatening illnesses and diseases to occur over time.
The solution to this health and safety issue is to install a bespoke designed hazardous air cab filtration overpressure safety system, integrated into the machine’s ventilation system to firstly filter the hazardous contaminants and then pressurize the clean filtered air into the sealed cabin which generates a positive pressure inside and therefore keeping all the deadly dusts and gases outside.
Arctic Air solutions hazardous air cab filtration over pressure safety systems are produced to a very high quality, manufactured from 304 grade stainless steel and powder coated for maximum durability complete with a digital cabin control unit to monitor, regulate and control internal cabin air pressure. Manufacturing in the United Kingdom ensures the lowest possible carbon footprint for our products supplied to our customers.
The new AA6 model can now be equipped with an optional course stainless steel washable mesh filter and optional filter restriction gauge to maximize filter replacement schedules by replacing filters based on true real time filter restriction therefore saving considerable amounts of money over competitors systems which are designed to end filter life on a time basis only.
There is no operator intervention required, pressurization will begin automatically when the engine is started ensuring the operators concentration is fully engaged with the task in hand, however, there is option to manually shut the system down if the machine is being operated outside of the hazardous area to help prolong filter life. The alarm status of low or high pressure will be shown visually together with an audible alarm with a further level of protection ensured by the use of a filter detection switch shutting the system down with an alarm if a filter is not detected telling the operator to investigate.
The optional filter restriction levels are monitored and displayed showing the operator real time filter condition enabling the full life of the filter to be used and therefore optimizing their replacement to ensure a more cost effective maintenance schedule.
A professionally installed cab filtration overpressure safety system can sometimes generate a pressure wave inside the cab when the door is shut if the cab has been sealed efficiently, if necessary, Arctic Air Solutions can fit an option to depressurize the cab when the door is being shut to allow correct latching of the door and therefore ensuring a perfect seal to maintain the cabs overpressure once the door is shut.
All systems are ATEX certified Category 3D equipment for use in Zone 22 environments where there is a risk of explosion giving further piece of mind that your operators will be protected in the most challenging of environments.
Arctic Air Solutions have been dedicated to the protection of operators working in hazardous environments for over 33 years and can work along side your company to ensure your targets and goals are met.
If you have a requirement for operator protection that requires a bespoke installation or customized filter solutions please feel free to contact us or arrange an appointment at our workshop where you can test the benefits of a fully installed system.
