Dust Suppression System

The Dustop is an extremely efficient dust control system. It draws food grade oil from a supply tank, furnished by the user or by the factory as an option, to an internal pump, which in turn, supplies oil to the system pressure controls and then directly to the spray assemblies. A typical system will supply oil to a combined maximum of 50,000 BPH, based on a commodity weight of 56 lbs. per bushel or 48 lbs. per cubic foot at a maximum of 0.02% oil application by weight. This calculates to a maximum of 2.072 gallons per minute or 1½ gallons per 1000 bushels at a maximum pressure of 80 pounds per square inch. Base units are available for single or dual spray points.The oil supply tank should be located as near the Dustop unit as possible. Output may be limited if the pump is required to draw oil over a long distance. The Dustop pump is capable of developing suction of 10" of mercury, or a horizontal pipe run of 100' or a straight lift of 15'. A buried 8,000-gallon horizontal tank should
