Highly effective filter equipment
- with economics and working environment in
focus
To meet future demands on working environment,
flexibility and productivity in the engineering industry, Absolent
AB has developed effective filter equipment that is now sold
all over the world.
Absolent filters offer a high degree of separation,
long service intervals of up to several years, and can run continuously
24 hours a day, seven days a week with a minimum of maintenance.
The long life span of the filter enables customers to minimize
production down time and other costs, such as filter replacement.
Personnel, machines and premises are purified of problematic
oil smoke and oil mist. This is good both for the working environment
and from a financial point of view.
Bufab Lann in Värnamo, Sweden, is one of the companies that has realized the
advantages of Absolent’s unique filter solutions. A large part of the machine fleet
comprises Hydromats and CNC lathes, which emit extreme amounts of oil mist and oil
smoke. Because of earlier problems with ventilation system clogging – and therefore a
bad working environment – there were stringent demands on separation efficiency and
total service costs when purchasing filters for the company’s new factory in Värnamo.
Absolent was the only company with experience of working with this kind of extreme
environment, and was able to refer to similar installations and guarantee a total function.
Absolent was entrusted with the task of supplying a total solution, including ducts, fans,
control equipment and service. The filtration needs of the entire factory are solved by a
number of small central filter units, both of type ODF and ODR, which serve different
groups of machines. Despite tough conditions and 24-hour operation, Absolent
guarantees long service intervals and minimum maintenance. “We are extremely
pleased with Absolent as a total supplier of our process ventilation,” says Niklas
Mårtensson, Managing Director of Bufab Lann.
