With Empire’s pneumatic blast and recovery system (PRS), you can tap the cost-saving advantages of more durable media for only a modest investment. The PRS lets you move up to recyclable media such as aluminum oxide, chilled iron and steel grit, which can be used effectively over and over—from 6 to 200 times. Conservative studies show an investment in a PRS is recouped in as few as ten weeks in terms of reduced costs for replacement media, disposal of spent media and man-hours required to move this material around. After that, years of higher profits lie ahead. The PRS relies on an exclusive cyclonic media reclaimer, which extracts good, reusable media from unwanted dust and debris. As a result, you get consistent performance from your media cycle after cycle. The PRS incorporates a SuperBlast 650 pressure system with 780 remote controls for ease of operation and maintenance. A dust collector, which captures 99% of particles one micron in size, permits conveying air to be recirculated into the workplace, thereby reducing HVAC costs. The system’s 10-horsepower blower extends effective work area and recovers media at rates exceeding 70 pounds per minutes. These units handle media sizes up to A-12 aluminum oxide and G-25 steel grit.
