Debris removal systems

A well-designed sawdust removal system is designed to remove chips and dust from woodworking machinery. That's why we use large-diameter piping to ensure sufficient airflow for planers and chippers, for example. Planes and chippers often have 150 mm discharge connections.

The pipelines are also equipped with an ATEX-certified back baffle, as well as a certified guillotine-type fire baffle even in dirty ducts.

The equipment is sized according to need and can be located outdoors or indoors. Recently, separate steel-framed equipment rooms or deconstruction containers have become more common. It is also possible to equip the installations with low-cost, low-maintenance fire extinguishing equipment to extinguish any fire immediately.

The units are equipped with HEPA13 after-filtration, allowing air to be returned to the working area. In this case, the vacuum in the rooms is equalised without the need for separate ventilation controls. There are also large energy savings by not blowing out warm air. This eliminates the need for separate auxiliary heaters and LTO equipment.

Survey on school and educational institution systems

Dust extraction systems in schools must meet the safety requirements of the application, such as those related to dust control, fire safety, and potential ATEX risks. In woodworking shops in particular, it is important that the system is properly sized, regularly maintained, and that inspections and maintenance related to its use are documented.
The appropriate system is selected based on the school’s equipment, layout, air volume requirements, and noise control needs. Some sites will be equipped with a separate equipment room or a container solution, while others will use a filter unit installed indoors. The choice is made based on the amount of sawdust and dust generated, the number of machines that may be in use at the same time, and the safety requirements at the site.
The cost of a school’s dust extraction system includes design, equipment, piping, installation, and commissioning. An exact price cannot be provided without a site-specific assessment. To request a quote, please provide details about the facility, equipment, any potential expansion needs, and whether the unit is to be installed indoors or in a separate equipment room or container.
Placing a dust extraction container or equipment room outdoors reduces noise in classrooms and facilitates maintenance, as the actual equipment is separated from the workspace. In addition, equipment installed outdoors saves indoor space and eliminates the need for fire compartmentalization of the equipment room. Equipment installed indoors is a good solution if outdoor space is not available. The appropriate solution depends on the space, budget, and practical operating conditions.
Yes, in many cases, an existing system can be modernized or expanded. First, we assess the condition of the current system, including airflow rates, filtration, safety systems, and piping. After that, the necessary modifications can be planned, such as connections for new equipment, expansion of the piping, or upgrades to the filter unit and safety systems.
Suomen Imurikeskus provides maintenance, spare parts, and technical support for its systems. It is advisable to check the availability and details of the maintenance contract directly during the quotation phase so that it can be tailored to the school’s usage patterns and the size of the equipment. Generally speaking, a maintenance contract is available and recommended. Regular maintenance ensures high equipment availability.
Woodworking in schools requires a system capable of effectively removing both sawdust and fine dust from the machines and workstations that are in use at the same time. The sizing is based on the air volume recommendations typically provided by machine manufacturers, the size of the space, the ductwork layout, and how many dampers or intake points can be open at the same time. In other words, how many machines need to be used simultaneously.
Maintenance includes regular inspection of the system, cleaning or replacing filters, monitoring the condition of the piping and dampers, and inspecting safety components. The maintenance interval depends on the frequency of use and the amount of dust. In practice, good maintenance extends the system’s service life and helps keep dust removal safe and efficient.
The noise level depends on the system’s power, location, soundproofing, and whether the equipment is located outside the classroom. In a school environment, noise should be taken into account during the planning phase, which is why the equipment is often placed in a separate equipment room or container if the goal is to create the quietest possible learning environment.
HEPA13 filtration is not in itself an energy-saving feature, but rather a filtration level. Energy efficiency is primarily influenced by air volumes, fan efficiency, operating times, pressure drops, and any air recirculation. Therefore, energy savings must be assessed on a case-by-case basis. Generally speaking, with equipment equipped with efficient filtration, air can be recirculated, resulting in even better efficiency than with heat recovery. The Finnish Vacuum Center has third-party research data on this.
In school woodworking shops, the system is designed according to the site’s safety requirements. If necessary, the piping can be equipped with backflow and fire dampers, and the system is implemented in a way that takes into account the control of dust, sparks, and potential fire hazards. In addition, the system can be equipped with, for example, a spark detector and/or a fire suppression system. The final solutions are always determined based on the specific application.
Recirculation of exhaust air may be possible if filtration, safety requirements, and the risks associated with the application permit it. This must be evaluated on a case-by-case basis, especially when dealing with fine dust or if the site has fire safety or ATEX requirements. When implemented correctly, air recirculation can reduce the need for heating energy, but the effectiveness of the solution depends on the specific site.
Operating costs are particularly affected by the need to replace filters, the fan’s electricity consumption, and maintenance work. The service life of filters depends on the amount of dust, operating time, and system sizing, so it is not advisable to specify a single fixed replacement interval for all applications. In practice, the condition of the filters is monitored regularly, and they are replaced when pressure drop, operating time, or the manufacturer’s instructions require it.
Dust extraction systems are designed for the sawdust and dust generated during woodworking, whereas in textile applications, the system is sized to handle finer dust, threads, and fiber residues from sources such as sewing machines and sergers.
