Cades Launch Their Filter Energy Management System At W10 Exhibition

Construction News Image
Cades are excited to introduce this new and revolutionary product to the Dust Extraction Market.

The wonders of wireless technology are now put to use to significantly reduce energy costs, reduce CO² emissions and provide invaluable data to help manage your energy bills.

The system, which was showcased at W10, uses wireless enabled dampers which are interfaced into the woodworking machines and which will automatically close when the machine no longer requires extraction. Existing manual dampers can be inexpensively altered to suit. A signal is sent to the fan inverter to reduce the fan speed which in turn reduces energy consumption.

A 10% reduction in fan speed is known to provide a 30% reduction in energy consumption.

By adding a simple piece of technology to your Electrical Control Panel, the whole system can be controlled from the panel or remotely from your PC. Via a standard web browser, the control panel can be accessed to view current plant operation and change settings to maintain optimum control. Trending Data can be downloaded straight onto an Excel spreadsheet giving you a full picture of how making adjustments to your production can affect your energy consumption. An optional time clock system is available to automatically start the filter units and put them into clean-down. Individual fans can be turned on and off to suit differing shift start/stop times.

A typical 'payback on cost' of only 18 months is realistically achievable meaning the system pays for itself in a very short time.

Benefits include:
  • Will work with any extraction system
  • Low installation costs due to the wireless connection between the damper units and the control panel
  • No costly re-wiring when the machinery is moved
  • Wireless system range of up to 300m without the need of repeater stations
  • Inverter reduces mechanical shock to the fan sets thus lengthening bearing and drive belt life
  • Inverter drives can be programmed to cap the maximum amount of power used during start up to avoid excess peak demand
  • Filter bag life is extended due to lower filter air volume
Steve Rhodes, MD, commented: "Our system is simpler to install and operate than similar systems on the market and we can therefore offer this exciting product at a very competitive price. Our existing customers who have trialled the system have been absolutely delighted with results."
