Chemical Processing Requirements
Chemical plants demand specialized vacuum systems:
- Corrosion-resistant materials (stainless steel, special coatings)
- Explosion-proof construction for hazardous areas
- Product containment and recovery
- Compliance with ATEX, IECEx standards
Application Areas
Powder Handling
Pneumatic conveying systems transfer powders between process stages while minimizing dust generation and product loss.
Reactor Charging
Vacuum loaders safely charge reactors with powders and granules, eliminating manual handling and exposure risks.
Packaging Lines
Dedusting systems remove excess powder from packages before sealing, ensuring clean products and accurate weights.
Material Compatibility
Construction materials for different chemical environments:
- Carbon steel: Non-corrosive materials
- 304 Stainless: General chemical resistance
- 316L Stainless: Corrosive acids and chlorides
- Hastelloy: Highly corrosive applications
- Polyethylene: Non-stick properties for sticky materials
Safety Features
- Explosion relief panels and flameless vents
- Isolation valves to prevent explosion propagation
- Grounding systems for static dissipation
- Gas detection and monitoring
- Emergency shutdown systems
