IN many industries some type of exhaust system designed to collect and remove dusts and fumes is essential 'to the efficiency, economy, and safety of operation. General design information is included in this chapter which is intended to relate primarily to industrial exhaust
systems.
CLASSIFICATION OF SYSTEMS
In general there are two basic layouts of exhaust systems, the central
and the multiple unit system. In the central system a fan is located near the center of operations with a piping system radiating to the various, machines to be served. In the multiple unit system, which is sometimes
employed where the machines to be served are widely scattered, or where the operations are apt to be independent or intermittent, small individual exhaust fans are located at the center of the machine groups or at each machine. The unit arrangement has the advantage of flexibility.
Exhaust systems are also classified by the means employed to collect the material. The dust or refuse may be collected and controlled by enclosing hoods or open hoods with positive inward air movement or by
exhausting the general air of the room. With some classes of machinery it is not feasible to hood the machines closely and in these cases open
hoods over or adjacent to the machines are provided to collect as much as possible of the dust and fumes. This class includes such machines as-
rubber mills, package filling machinery, sand blast, crushers, forges, pickling tanks, melting furnaces, and the unloading points of various
types of conveyors.
^
The open hoods should be placed as close to the source of dust or fumes as possible, with due regard to the movements of the operator arid should be placed so that the operator is in no case in the path of the exhausted material. When the hood must be placed at some distance above the machine it should be large enough to cover a large area as diffusion is
usually quite rapid.
Some consideration should be given to the natural movement of the
fumes. For those that are lighter than air, the hood may be overor above
