Ecogate recently introduced a game-changing innovation. The all new greenBOX dust collector from Ecogate is a state-of-the-art control. It is specifically designed to optimize dust collection and provide electricity savings of 50% to 75%, the Los Angeles-based company says.
According to a company spokesperson, “The system is designed to be fully automated, so users are expected to just use their workstations. The control unit manages the entire dust collection system: it opens and closes workstation gates, starts and stops ventilation fan(s) and dust collectors, adjusts the fan(s) speed, and maintains minimum transport air velocities in the duct system.”
In addition, Ecogate says by utilizing real-time air velocity, volume, and pressure measurements, the device continuously monitors machines’ activities to determine the airflow requirements. Air velocities, volumes, and pressures are measured at gates, calculated at branches, and assessed at the system level. The greenBOX control unit automatically maintains minimal air flow velocities throughout the system to prevent material from settling in ducts.
“With the greenBOX, you can rest assured that your industrial ventilation system is running at optimal levels, saving you a lot of money on fan operation costs and on makeup air if you are using heating and/or air conditioning,” – says Ecogate’s spokesperson.
Ecogate pioneers the future of industrial ventilation, blending energy-saving technology, intelligent automation, and smart controls. Their proprietary system enhances business performance, slashes electricity expenses, and champions environmental sustainability, driving a greener future. From small shops to the biggest factories, they have a smart system for every woodworkers. For the past 70 years, manufacturers have relied on dust and fume extraction systems operating on a straightforward principle – continuously extracting air from all areas where dust or fumes could be produced. This outdated approach is not only energy-intensive but also inefficient.
Ecogate’s industrial dust/fume/mist collection solutions utilize intelligent automation and smart controls to provide targeted suction precisely where it’s needed, in real-time. This approach leads to a substantial reduction in electricity usage – up to two-thirds of the consumption of traditional systems. With Ecogate, every aspect of the system performs better, improving indoor air quality, reducing noise levels, and lowering energy costs.
