​POLYPROPYLENE DUCTING

The benefits of using polypropylene ventilation ducting over traditional PVC ducting include:
 
Chemical Resistance
 
Owing to proven high resistance, polypropylene ducting is particularly well-suited for industrial applications in the chemical industry, the pharmaceutical industry, electroplating plants or the solar industry, etc... and guarantee a high level of security and long operating life, depending on the concentration of chemicals, the temperature and the pressure.
 
Corrosion Resistance
 
Thanks to the corrosion resistance and the excellent properties of the individual materials, a ventilation duct made of Polypropylene has a much higher service life.
 

PVC DUCTING

The benefits of using  PVC ducting include:
 
 
Operating efficiency is particularly emphasized by the long service life, easy processing and the simplified manufacturing process of the individual components. Plastics engineering also makes it very easy to expand and repair existing systems. Consequently, this results in a clear advantage over a metal solution.

STAINLESS STEEL DUCTING
​

Specially fabricated 304 stainless steel ducting is suitable for any low pressure gases. Perfect for non-static and non corrosive fume extraction. 

POLYPROPYLENE CANOPY HOODS

​Canopy hoods are designed to collect and exhaust corrosive vapors, heat, steam, and odors when mounted over areas with water baths, hot plates, or portable equipment. The hoods have a built in plenum to increase air flow around perimeter of hood to improve capture.

Canopy hoods can be fitted with additional side panels to further isolate the extraction area.
 
Plenums can be added to extract at bench top level or floor level to remove fume or vapors that are denser than air.

EXTRACTION ARMS
 
Extraction arms for every type of application

​ECL offers Nederman extraction arms that are  simple to position, extend and retract. Different attachments are available for wall, ceiling or extension bracket mounting as well as a number of accessories, including hoods and dampers to improve efficiency. The arms are connected to a extraction and filter system removing the contaminants from the extracted air so that it can be returned to the atmosphere or recycled without negative effects.

FUME SCRUBBERS

​Fume Scrubbers are an effective means of removing many types of airborne contamination. There are various designs which are used in different applications, however they all operate on a similar principle – passing contaminated air through a system which encourages contamination to be left behind in a liquid. The liquid acts as a filter capturing the harmful substance, allowing purified air to leave the scrubber. The liquid may then be recirculated back through the scrubber to capture more contaminants. Due to the way scrubbers operate they can handle large concentrations of pollutants continuously, and may offer lower lifetime running costs than filtration systems since there is no need to replace filtration media. 
 
ECL offers a complete service for the design, manufacture and installation of fume scrubbers to handle corrosive fumes, moist gases and dust laden air flows.

​The fume scrubber systems can be configured as either a manual or automated system. The Manual configuration is a lower cost option in which the scrubbing solution is checked manually at pre-determined intervals to assess pH and determine if additional caustic needs to be added.  The automated system automatically checks the pH and adjusts the levels of scrubbing solution to caustic concentration and dumps neutralized waste into a holding tanks.  The unique control panel is pre-programed to the correct dosing and dumping cycle at the predetermined pH Level and at the same time allows for full control over each of the components that make up the automated system.
