2. INTRODUCTION
Simco-Ion’s Neutro-Vac is a web cleaning and dust collection system that
incorporates active static elimination, aggressive particle agitation and vacuum
removal of debris to provide efficient cleaning of webs, sheets or parts.
Neutro-Vac Systems consist of a vacuum hood, ducting and a dust collector.
Vacuum hoods are designed to eliminate static charges and physically scour dust and
debris from the surface of a web, sheet or part. Debris is vacuumed into the inlet
slot, flows through the ducting then is deposited into the dust collector.
Vacuum Hoods
Vacuum hoods are a welded air-tight construction design that are available in a
variety of different shapes and sizes. Two of the most common sizes are Top Draft
and Side Draft. Top Draft hoods and Side Draft hoods are available in various
configurations (see Figure 1).
