Filter-Guard 206 Dust Filter Monitoring Application Filter-Guard 206 continuously monitors the clean air side of any fine dust filter installations. A warning is initiated when a sudden increase in dust concentration is present, i.e. due to breakdown in the filter casing or bag. Fields of Application Monitoring filter systems Vibrating and jet filter systems Air extraction installations in wood and plastic processing plants Air conditioning units with dust filter systems Paint and varnish production Ambient air monitoring at workplaces and many more Features Suitable for various types of dust 4-20mA standard output signal LON® interface (optional) Low current consumption Robust aluminium housing Straightforward installation Easy exchange of the sensor elements Accessories Signal horns, warning lamps, warning banners, air control accessories, metering units, plotters, data-logger. Further accessories can be supplied on request, according to the proposed measurement tasks.
