The Lip Type Zinc Fume Suction Duct is a specially designed ducting for the collection and direction of zinc fumes made in the hot dip galvanizing process. The duct is positioned on both sides of the galvanizing bath for the duct to capture fumes directed to the connected extraction system, where it completes its air movement path. The precise design achieves an even suction across the bath and is a proven solution for fume collection in galvanizing plants.
The Lip Type Zinc Fume Suction Duct is widely employed in galvanizing plants that require containment and transport of zinc oxide fumes to dust collection systems (baghouses) or scrubbers for conditioning. Proper position and alignment of the duct system assures the best fume collection while also reducing excessive energy loss.
The duct is manufactured with heavy-duty, corrosion-resistant materials that are suitable for molten zinc bath temperatures. Ducts can be made in either length or diameter to accommodate specific plant layouts as well as galvanizing kettle sizes.
Galvanizing plants employ the Lip Type Zinc Fume Suction Duct as a part of a complete zinc fume extraction system to ensure worker health and safety and to comply with environmental requirements. The Lip Type Zinc Fume Suction Duct is crucial to the design of modern galvanizing plant infrastructure.
