A paint mist removing apparatus includes: a duct through which air containing paint mist passes; an element fit part provided at the duct, the element fit part being fitted with a filter element including a filter part configured to remove the paint mist and a filter case housing the filter part, the filter case having a case exit from which all air taken in from a case entrance of the filter case is caused to exit through the filter part; an frame-like projection projecting from an inner surface of the duct and abutting on an entire circumference of an opening edge of the case exit of the filter case; and a duct side-surface opening being open at a side surface of the duct and normally closed by a door member, the duct side-surface opening being open when the filter element is set in and out from the element fit part.

A wet scrubber having a body that is molded from a plastic material in combination with a nozzle insert that is removably received in the inlet of the wet scrubber and configured to optimize the speed of fluid flow entering a mixing chamber provided in the wet scrubber. Interchangeable nozzle inserts allow to optimize operation of the wet scrubber for different processes the wet scrubber is operating in conjunction with.

A filter for industrial coating filtration systems. The filter has a housing made up of a peripheral wall extending around the periphery. The housing is preferably made of a suitably rigid material. A preferably rigid support backing is mounted within the housing. The support backing has a planar configuration with openings formed through it so that gas can flow through without substantial resistance. The preferably planar sheet of which the support backing is made is pleated. The pleated support backing defines a series of panels, each of which is angled to a next adjacent panel. Filtration media is mounted to the support backing, end caps are attached to the ends of the support backing to maintain the pleated configuration, and the assembly is inserted into the housing, which can have end flaps to seal using tape or adhesive.

The disclosed technology includes an air filter box for filtering particulates from air. The air filter box can include a filter media pack having a filter layer and a plurality of filter media supports configured to support the filter layer. The air filter box can also include a filter housing having an inlet, an outlet, and a plurality of support tabs configured to align and support the filter media pack inside of the filter housing. The filter media pack can be configured to be folded and placed inside of the housing for cooperative engagement with the support tabs. The filter box can be configured to channel a mixture of air and particulates from the inlet, through the filter media pack, and out the outlet to create filtered air.

A plurality of painting zones is connected in series by a plurality of air exhaust ducts so as to allow air to flow through the painting zones. A paint mist in air having passed through a painting chamber of each painting zone is removed by a dry filter. Feedback control is performed on the temperature and the humidity of air in a second painting zone other than a third painting zone to which conditioned air from an air conditioner is supplied. Thus, it is possible to appropriately adjust the temperature and the humidity of each painting zone and avoid degradation of painting quality in each painting zone, while achieving downsizing of the entire system by not providing a recycling air conditioner on the route of an air flow passage.

A system includes a paint booth including a room, a ceiling, and a floor. The system also includes a ceiling filter communicatively coupled to a first opening and a base filter communicatively coupled to a second opening. A first pressure sensor is configured to output a first measurement signal indicative of a first pressure drop across the ceiling filter. A second pressure sensor is configured to output a second measurement signal indicative of a second pressure drop across the base filter. A controller is configured to receive the first measurement signal and the second measurement signal and generate a first alert when the first pressure drop across the ceiling filter is greater than a first threshold pressure drop and generate a second alert when the second pressure drop across the base filter is greater than a second threshold pressure drop.

A method for removing overspray from air flow exiting a painting booth may include passing the air flow through an incoherent mass of cleaning elements, which are kept in a stirred condition, so as to release the overspray onto the cleaning elements of the incoherent mass.
