Level A Fireproof Dust Collection System with 1500 Mesh Stainless Steel Filter

The C516 is a fireproof dust collection system built to Level A non-combustible specification. Motor power is 1.5 kW or 2.2 kW, voltage is 220 V or 380 V, filtration is 2 x 1500 mesh stainless steel, machine weight is 200 kg and the overall dimension is 1200*650*1750 mm. The unit is CE certified.

Foam dust is fuel. A fine PU or sponge dust cloud in a workshop is one of the easier materials to ignite, and a collector that is built from combustible parts adds to the risk instead of reducing it. The C516 uses a non-combustible Level A construction and a metal cabinet so the dust is captured in a body that will not feed a fire.

• Model: C516
• Fire-proof level: Level A (non-combustible)
• Motor power: 1.5 kW / 2.2 kW
• Voltage: 220 V / 380 V
• Filter: 2 x 1500 mesh stainless
• Weight: 200 kg

1. Capture at the hood. A hood at the cutting or trimming point collects dust before it spreads.
2. Carry it in the duct. The fan moves the dust-laden air through the duct at a steady velocity.
3. Drop the coarse dust. The cyclone separator removes the heavier particles first.
4. Filter the fine dust. Air passes through two 1500 mesh stainless steel elements.
5. Discharge clean air. Filtered air leaves the unit back into the workshop.
6. Empty the bin. Collected dust is removed from the bin on a fixed schedule.

Keep the hood close to the dust source. A hood that is too far away lets the dust cloud spread before it is captured, and no filter can recover dust that never enters the duct.

Foam dust behaves differently from offcuts. A fine PU dust cloud has a large surface area, ignites easily and can propagate through a duct or a filter chamber. That makes the material of the collector part of the fire strategy, not a cosmetic detail.

The C516 is built to a Level A non-combustible specification, with a metal cabinet around the dust path and the filter chamber. The cyclone removes coarse dust before the filter, so the filter carries less fuel and the airflow stays open for longer.

The practical benefit is straightforward. A collector built from combustible parts adds fuel to the exact place where dust is concentrated. A non-combustible body does not remove every risk, but it removes the collector itself as a fuel source, which is the part the buyer can control.

• Non-combustible body: the dust is stored in a metal chamber.
• Cyclone pre-separation: less coarse dust reaches the filter.
• Open airflow: a clear duct keeps dust moving instead of settling.

• Level A construction: non-combustible body around the dust and filter chamber.
• Metal cabinet: no plastic housing to melt or feed a fire in the dust path.
• Cyclone first: coarse foam dust drops out before it reaches the filter.
• Stainless filters: 2 x 1500 mesh elements catch the fine dust that stays airborne.
• Dual voltage: 220 V or 380 V supply, so it fits a small shop or a full line.
• Compact footprint: 1200*650*1750 mm, fits beside the cutting area.
• CE certified: export-ready electrics and guarding.

• Foam cutting rooms: dust captured at the blade hood.
• Shredding and recycling: dust from foam shredders and granulators.
• Rebond lines: dust control around mixing and scrap handling.
• Mattress trimming: fine dust from trimming and edging stations.
• CNC foam routing: extraction at the cutting head.
• Workshop clean-up: general foam dust collection with a hose kit.

Dust collector faults usually appear as falling suction before they appear as a motor fault. Check the filter, the duct joints and the number of open hoods first, because those three account for most weak-suction complaints.

Empty the dust bin before it is full. A full bin reduces suction and puts the largest amount of dust in one place, which is the opposite of what a fire-safe installation should do.

Check the duct and hood for built-up dust every week. Settled dust in a duct is the material that turns a small ignition into a duct fire.

• Confirm the hood is close to the dust source before the shift.
• Check the duct joints for leaks weekly.
• Empty the dust bin on a fixed schedule.
• Ground the duct and the collector.
• Stop the unit and isolate power before opening the filter chamber.

The filter is the part that sets suction. Clean the two stainless elements on a fixed interval, and replace them when the mesh is damaged rather than trying to patch it.

The door seal and the duct joints are the second wear point. A worn seal lets dust bypass the filter and escape into the workshop, which looks like a filter fault but is a sealing fault.

• Clean the stainless filters on a fixed interval.
• Check the filter chamber door seal weekly.
• Inspect duct joints and hood connections weekly.
• Check fan mounting and motor current monthly.
• Replace damaged filter elements with the correct 1500 mesh part.

The unit is shipped in an export crate with the cabinet, fan and filter elements braced for transport. The crate is sized to the 1200*650*1750 mm machine envelope.

The shipment includes the duct connection sizes, the filter specification and a commissioning checklist. Remote support is available during installation.
