Fiber Bed Mist Collector
System Design
The Monroe Fiber Bed Mist Collector is a custom designed
unit consisting of a continuous-duty, aerosol coalescing filter,
fan assembly and, when needed, an optional pre-filter stage. Mist
is coalesced using filter elements consisting of micro-fine fiberglass
or synthetic fibers. This compacted media is in the form of cylindrical
units. These long-life filters can provide several years of service
before replacement is necessary.

When the mist contains heavy droplets and/or dust particles,
pre-filtering is provided by separate filters.
The Monroe Fiber Bed Mist Collector is available in capacities
from 500 to 50,000 CFM in a single unit and may be integrated
with existing duct work.
The Monroe Fiber Bed Mist Collector is well suited for many
oil mist applications including high production machining,
asphalt fumes and synthetic fiber processing. |

High Performance
Many industrial, chemical, and food processing applications
generate sub-micron mists. The Monroe Fiber Bed Mist Collector,
developed after lengthy research and testing, is an ideal solution
for these troublesome mists. Mist particles are efficiently removed
through interception, inertial impact, diffusion (Brownian movement)
and gravitational sedimentation.
The Monroe Fiber Bed Mist Collector removes particles as fine
as 0.3 micron. While normal filters permit these particles to re-entrain
into the outgoing clean air, Monroe's self-draining filter is designed
to prevent oil re-entrainment and recirculate clean air to the
atmosphere.
Monroe carefully selects fiber bed filters to give constant efficiencies
as high as 99.99% on all mist particles.
Custom Built Units
For special applications, when mist is generated at high
temperatures, Monroe provides custom designed condensing heat exchangers.
Gas to air or gas to water heat exchangers are offered, depending
upon application.
Multi-Stage Compact Units
For heavy duty operations where the mist is dirty or dust-laden,
or when large oil droplets exist, Monroe provides multi-stage filtration
with various pre-filtering elements followed by the fiber bed filters.
