SonicAire introduces dust control fans for combustible dust

SonicAire has introduced its first and only dust control fans designed specifically to tackle combustible dust in Class II Division 1 (CIID1) environments.

According to the company, these environments are prone to fugitive dust buildup, which can be hard to manage. The fans provide unparalleled protection against dust accumulation.

SonicAire says the fans combine advanced engineering and robust design to maintain compliance in hard-to-reach areas, minimizing combustible dust hazards. The new models—XZ210 and XZ215—have multiple features that ensure efficient, proactive dust control. The XZ210 provides the maximum vertical range of motion, catering to facilities with plenty of overhead clearance, while the more compact XZ215 offers a versatile solution for shorter spaces.

Both models boast dust-ignition-proof designs and a unique ability to rotate 360 degrees while oscillating vertically, offering comprehensive coverage for your entire facility. By keeping the air in motion, SonicAire’s CIID1 fans prevent dust from accumulating on elevated surfaces, significantly reducing the risk of explosive dust-related incidents.

Underwriters Laboratories (UL) has certified the two models from SonicAire's Extreme Series. Under UL’s rigorous testing procedures, SonicAire’s CIID1 fans proved their ability to operate safely in hazardous environments. As a result, manufacturers dealing with grain, plastic, chemicals, carbon or wood can trust SonicAire’s UL-certified fans to combat combustible dust effectively while adhering to regulatory requirements.
