Engineered Recycling Systems continues to lead the way in industrial air filtration with its patented CCM® OCT Filter System—a groundbreaking solution that eliminates the need for explosion venting, external housings, or relief panels.

Unlike conventional filter systems that rely on external containment, explosion panels, or venting mechanisms to meet safety codes, the CCM® OCT filter from Engineered Recycling Systems is engineered for internal safety from the ground up. Its fully antistatic construction, internal grounding, and non-combustible design allow it to be installed directly inside production facilities—without the need for additional housing, sprinkler shielding, or explosion relief systems.

🧲 Built-In Safety, No Compromises All internal components—including suction nozzles and nozzle hoses—are antistatic and grounded, effectively preventing spark generation even under high dust loads.

The filter operates on the pressure side, where dust-laden air enters the cylinder and is continuously cleaned by rotating suction nozzles that maintain optimal airflow and safety.

📸 Visual Proof of Performance The attached images show the interior of the CCM® OCT filter, highlighting the antistatic suction nozzles and hose system, as well as the external view of the filter—a compact, facility-ready unit that requires no external housing. This design allows for direct sprinkler coverage and visual inspection during operation.

🛠️ Why It Matters ERS filters are not just compliant—they’re engineered to eliminate the conditions for combustion entirely. With no need for explosion venting, customers gain:

• Lower installation costs

• Simplified facility layout

• Enhanced safety and compliance

• Continuous uptime with zero manual cleaning

💡 ERS Statement “Combustible dust shouldn’t dictate your facility design. Our CCM® OCT filters are built to operate safely, efficiently, and visibly—without the explosion risks or infrastructure burdens of traditional systems.”

Engineered Recycling Systems is finalizing the commissioning of a new corrugated scrap conveyance system built for high-volume trim removal and dust control in a packaging production environment.

This installation features ERS’s proven technologies—including the Balancing Fan, LPS Separator, and CCM® Filter—configured for continuous scrap handling, clean discharge, and OSHA/NFPA compliance.

System Highlights:

• Trim removal from corrugated converting lines

• Airflow balancing for reduced energy demand

• Filtration system with rotating nozzle cleaning

• Dust cyclone and pucker discharge into baler or dumpster

This installation is part of a growing number of ERS systems commissioned across the industry, as more manufacturers trust our engineered solutions for reliable scrap conveyance, dust control, and long-term performance.
