Hydraulic Fracturing Silica Law: The CMAXX Dust Pig Solution

MERCER, Pa., Sept. 7, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- With OSHA's new limits on silica exposure looming around the corner, many hydraulic fracturing companies are working to get their onsite sand and dust under control. The CMAXX Dust Pig from Imperial Systems Inc is designed specifically for the hydraulic fracking industry. This product is a patented solution for the constant dust and sand generated by frac trucks.

Unlike any other product on the market, the CMAXX Dust Pig is self-contained, portable, and mounted on the frac truck. It is designed to filter the sand and dust that is vented during the process of loading sand into and conveying it out of the frac truck. This effective source capture is simply the best way to control dust from this application.

When a frac truck is loaded, vents release air to stabilize pressure, along with huge clouds of sand. Even heavy-duty respirators aren't enough to protect people from that level of exposure. The only solution for health and compliance is to filter the vented air right at the source.

With its patented design, the CMAXX Dust Pig is easily installed on new or retrofitted frac trucks. Once in place, it draws all the vented air through vent tubes and into the dust collector. Filters remove sand and particulate from the air and release it into a hopper, where a low-profile rotary airlock makes disposal safe and easy.

President and CEO Jeremiah Wann spent a lot of time on hydraulic fracturing sites, observing and discussing. "These guys are being exposed to massive amounts of sand. It's everywhere. The solutions that were already out there on the market were absolutely just not good enough. I had to design something better."

While other types of dust collection are in use on hydraulic fracturing sites, the CMAXX Dust Pig is the only self-contained, portable, truck-mounted unit that directly captures air released from frac truck venting. In addition to this use, this product can also be used on conveyors, batch mixers, and any other sources of airborne particulate.

Features unique to the CMAXX line of collectors include heavy-duty construction, easy filter changes, and our company's excellent field service and warranty coverage.

To find out how the CMAXX Dust Pig can bring you into OSHA compliance, clean up your site, and protect your employees from permanent lung damage, please contact us. Our team can fit these collectors on any new frac truck or retrofit to any existing one, and we are happy to help you.
