Paint Booth Supply Air Quality Standards   Paint Overspray Collection           Quality Control: Production standards are challenged when dirt particulates contaminate painted parts.   NESHAP/MACT Guidelines: The U.S. EPA has promulgated National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) in the Aerospace Industry. These standards regulate paint overspray emissions of inorganic HAPS in paint spray booths. Efficiencies for dry particulate filter systems require testing using Test Method #319. Problems: Airborne contaminates introduced through air supply streams in paint booths contribute to costly and unnecessary rejection of painted parts.   Storm Water Act: Paint particulates escaping through paint booth exhaust stacks are sources for contamination to storm water systems. Paint particulates from the roof and property drain into storm water systems when it rains or snows. ATI Solutions: Advanced technology for particulate removal is the solution. ATI's HT Series and 3-Stage Diffusion System capture micron sized particulates which are damaging to your paint finishes.   Industry Problems: Exhausted paint overspray particulate creates other problems - painting cars and property, costly stack maintenance, fan and motor replacement and potential stack fires due to paint buildup.   ATI Solutions: Capturing the paint overspray at the source is more cost effective than dealing with particulate once it has been exhausted into the atmosphere. ATI's OSM-100 and Aerospace 3000 Systems are cost effective products that deal with your particulate emission problems.
