| The EPA National
Emissions Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) mandated
that a new filtration test method be established to determine the
efficiency of a filter to remove hazardous pollutants from paint
overspray. The EPA guidelines went into effect on September 1, 1998
and continue to set the standard for paint overspray collection
systems today. The test method to determine compliance is Test Method
319 and all ATI NESHAP filter products are tested in accordance
with this standard |
| ATI developed the first NESHAP approved
filtration systems in 1998 and today we offer a variety of different
systems designed to meet your individual needs. Click on the links
below to learn more about two of ATI's most popular NESHAP systems.
The OSM-100 system (two stage) is perfect for exceeding requirements
for existing paint booths and the A-3000 system (three stage) is
ideal for new paint booth systems. |

| These are just two
of thirteen NESHAP approved filtration systems offered by ATI.
