Trion Air Boss ATS Revolutionary Technology for the New Millennium, Durable, compact cabinetry

Revolutionary Technology

for the New Millennium

During operation, the contaminated air to be cleaned passes across Trion’s unique spiked ionizer blades which are sup- ported between flat grounded electrodes. Revolutionary to the industry, the blades are made of stainless steel that will not rust or break, thus eliminating costly maintenance time and replacement costs.

The DC voltage supplied to the blades creates a high intensity field where the particulate matter in the air becomes electri- cally charged. The charged particles then pass into a collector plate section made up of a series of equally spaced parallel plates. Each alternate plate is charged with the same polarity as the particles, which repel, while the interleaving plates are grounded, which attract and collect.

Periodically, depending on the type and amount, the contami- nant is washed into the cabinet drain basin by an automatic activated integral washing system that is located on both the upstream and downstream sides of the ionizing-collecting cell(s). “U” shaped slide rails are positioned on the air entrance and exit sides of the module housing. These rails will hold two-inch metal mesh filter panels or a 40% open perforated plate. The selection depends on the nature of the contaminant and the other modules used in the air treatment system.

A programmable logic controller (PLC) and dual voltage solid- state Pulse Width Modulated (PWM) high voltage DC power supply are housed in a remote-mounted NEMA 12 enclosure. The PLC controls the system functions of wash, fire suppression, and fan on/off. A 7-day clock is standard. The PWM power supply, which energizes the ionizing-collecting cells, comes standard with LED indicator lights. Optional door-mounted meters, which aid in determining cell operating status, are also available.

In applications requiring extremely high collection efficiency and low resistance to air flow, two or three electro- static sections may be placed inline to create a double or triple pass unit.

Durable, compact cabinetry

When you invest in a Trion ATS, you want it not only to fit your unique needs, but your individual space as well. And you want it to last. Trion ATS housings are constructed using 16-gauge zinc-coated steel. Then all welds and the finished area of welds are treated with a corrosion- and rust-inhibiting coating to assure long life. Cabinet finish is completed with a durable industrial-grade semi-gloss baked-on enamel no less than 3 mil thick. All doors are gasketed to prevent air and water leakage. Finally, the housing is furnished completely assembled for easy shipment and installation.

The Impinger Module

The impinger module is an optional part of the ATS system design. A 2” rail is positioned upstream of the impinger panel to accommodate a standard 40% free area perforated panel for heavy, fluid or semi-fluid particulate matter or a metal mesh prefilter for light oil mist. It also allows for even, dry air distribution through the filtering sections. The particulate matter may range in viscosity from that of water to relatively heavy greases. In heavy loading applications, the liquid particles strike the impinger, coalesce into droplets and then flow to the drain pan below, thus eliminating problems with evaporation. If the particles are of a high viscosity nature that do not readily flow into the drain pan, they are periodically flushed down the drain with the integral wash system nozzles located upstream and downstream of the impinger panel.

The Electrostatic Air Cleaner Module

Electrostatic Air Cleaner Section enables extremely small par- ticulate matter, “The Fines,” to be removed from an air stream with relatively no resistance to air flow. This is due to the open area of the collecting elements. The low resistance is main- tained from the start to the completion of the collection cycle. The unit operates in the higher efficiency collection range, upward of 95% DOP Method, on particles ranging in size from 10 Microns down to 0.01 Microns in size.
