AAF International (American Air Filter) offers a number of different technologies to solve dust collection challenges. The purpose of this data sheet is to provide our application engineers as much information as possible about your particular dust generating operation/process.  AAF will decide on the best technology which may include bag type collectors, cartridge collectors, oil mist collectors, grease collectors and collectors that use water as the scrubbing medium. The more complete the data, the more accurate our answers will be for you. However, if you do not have the information requested simply leave the question blank and AAF personnel will assist you when your form is received.  Many operations will allow for different types of technologies to be applied to a particular application (see our Equipment Selection Guide),.

Thanks for your interest in the AAF^® International Product line.
