The DFEP was designed to meet rapid growth in the metal fabrication
industry and offers facilities a convenient solution for protecting
employees and property from dust hazards while maximizing production
uptime. The powerful filtration system is available in four- and
six-cartridge models, with additional models to be introduced over the
coming months.
“Downflo Evolution cartridge technology was a leap forward in
performance and value for customers when we launched it three years
ago,” said John Woolever, product manager in the Industrial Air
Filtration unit of Donaldson. “Now the DFEP leverages the features of
that technology—pulse-jet cleaning, airflow management, and filtration
efficiency—and bundles them into an attractive, turnkey system to
deliver new value and convenience to our customers.”
To develop the DFEP, Donaldson worked closely with global cutting and
welding equipment manufacturers, who frequently bundle dust collectors
with their products as a service to end users. The DFEP features a
modern, aesthetically-pleasing design that complements state-of-the-art
manufacturing environments. And, because the DFEP has a standard design
worldwide, local orders can be conveniently sourced from Donaldson
facilities nearest to the customer.
“Our OEM customers are global in mindset and want a consistent
plug-and-play solution, not a variety of separate parts that have to be
assembled in the field,” said Woolever. “With the DFEP, it will be easy
to deliver a single, bundled dust collection system to their customer
base.”
The filtration technology in the DFEP features horizontal cartridge
filter elements placed above the airstream, allowing gravity to assist
in removing dust-laden air. Along with pulse-jet cleaning, the down-flow
action increases filtration capacity and reduces maintenance, which
maximizes uptime.
“As manufacturing processes advance, the demand for and importance of
reliable filtration grows with them,” Woolever said. “A metal fabricator
puts a significant capital investment into a new fabrication line to
expand their capabilities; interruptions in production due to filtration
are extremely disruptive and expensive. With our experience and
knowledge, and the best technology in the marketplace, Donaldson helps
maximize that investment.”
