3-Stage Filtration & Emission Control

The unit captures over 99.99% of airborne particulates and mercury vapor released during crushing, far exceeding OSHA standard thresholds:

*

Stage 1 (Bag Filter): Industrial-grade fabric filter capturing large particles and dust (1 micron @ 99% particle retention). Requires replacement roughly twice per drum.

*

Stage 2 (HEPA Filter): Dual-action, high-capacity HEPA filter capturing fine mercury-containing powder (0.3 microns @ 99.99% retention). Requires replacement roughly every 10 drums.

*

Stage 3 (Activated Carbon Filter): Premium carbon matrix designed to capture and neutralize raw mercury vapor. Exhaust emissions register at a safe 0.00005 mg/m³. Calculated lifetime capacity of up to 1 million lamps.

Premium Control Panel Features

The safety panel monitors 7 key mechanical points during operation:

*

Palm-style emergency stop button (Red) and safety-shrouded start button (Green).

*

Full drum indicator light.

*

Purge cycle timer and status light.
