Imagine a pharmaceutical facility packaging a potent active ingredient. Even a small release of the collected dust during filter changeout could pose a significant risk to technicians and contaminate cleanroom environments. Or picture a lab working with heavy metals, asbestos, or biohazardous material—these operations require more than a standard dust collector. They need a solution engineered for complete containment.
In many industries, airborne particles are not just a nuisance but a serious health and safety hazard. If your operations involve hazardous dust, every detail of your dust collection system must be designed with managing the associated risks in mind. That’s where the Eurovac Bag-In/Bag-Out (BIBO) system excels.
What is the Eurovac BIBO System?
The Eurovac Bag-In/Bag-Out (BIBO) system is a specialized dust collection unit designed to safely handle and dispose of contaminated or hazardous dust. Rather than exposing filters directly during maintenance or disposal, the BIBO system uses a sealed bagging mechanism that protects both workers and the environment. Here’s how it works:
- Contained Filter Changeout: Filters are housed within a containment bag. When it’s time for maintenance, the bag is sealed from the outside, allowing the contaminated filter to be removed and replaced without direct contact.
- No Cross-Contamination: The contaminated filter is securely bagged before removal, reducing the risk of airborne release.
- Tool-Free Operation: The system is designed for fast, efficient filter changeouts—no tools, no exposure, and minimal disruption to operations.
Key Advantages of the Eurovac BIBO Design
- Maximum Safety: Prevents operator exposure to harmful dust during filter maintenance and disposal. Ideal for hazardous and regulated applications.
- Cleanroom Compatible: Protects sensitive environments from contamination, making it suitable for pharmaceutical, biotech, and medical manufacturing.
- Regulatory Compliance: Helps meet stringent OSHA, NFPA, and EPA standards for hazardous dust handling.
- Ease of Use: Designed with maintenance teams in mind, the BIBO system simplifies filter changes and minimizes equipment downtime.
