Camfil Farr APC has an entire team assembled specifically to support the pharmaceutical market. Qualified engineers on this team will work with you to properly apply a Gold Series Camtain containment dust collector on your pharmaceutical application. Below is a sample of the questions/considerations:

- Will the collector be located indoors or outdoors?
- What is the operating and maximum temperature?
- What is the Kst value (deflagration index) of the dust?
- Will they be using explosion vents or an explosion suppression system?
- If suppression system, are they asking us to provide this?

- What is the distance of the vent duct?
- Is containment specified? Is it for both the doors and discharge?
- If the unit is indoors what is the size of the room (l x w x h)?
