Simple Solutions, the manufacturer of activated carbon solutions for the waste-water industry since 2003 is branching out with the release of its new Recirculating Molecular Air Scrubber, the RMS-800. This 2-stage filter is self-contained and will require no external ventilation. It is suitable for a large array of odor control needs. This includes waste-water applications like sludge press rooms and screen rooms, but it can also be utilized to remove any odor associated with a volatile organic compound (VOC) in any enclosed room. This unit can be used in places like kennels, rendering plants, morgues, evidence rooms, hospitals, cannabis grow and processing rooms, and anywhere you are dealing with an odor problem associated with VOCs in an enclosed environment.
Other recirculating odor solutions don’t offer the combination of a high CFM (800 CFM) and the volume of carbon (7.5 CF). This increases the life of the carbon and results in a high contact time of .56 seconds (56/100). Our scrubber uses a pressure blower, whereas, other smaller units use a centrifugal fan. Centrifugal fans don’t like the back pressure associated with this kind of unit. The backpressure on the system when fully loaded with carbon is 3 in/H20. The unit can provide two air exchanges per hour when used in a 50’x50’x10’ room.
The RMS-800 comes with features like a Merv7 pre-filter for removal of mold spores, dust and other contaminants, a standard voltage in one-phase (110/220/1/60) but unit is also available in three-phase (208-230/460V/3/60), a magnehelic pressure gauge, a NEMA magnetic motor starter, four lift points for mounting to winch to hold above the workplace, a built-in skid with forklift tong slots for easy maneuvering, and 250 pounds of GC-4 activated carbon.
Simple Solutions President, Andrew McGibbon says, “We’ve had many calls over the years for a selfcontained unit, something you could move easily from one location to another and yet still be able to move the volume of air needed. The other benefit is that the customer doesn’t have to cut through a wall to install venting.”
The base model starts at $8,300 and goes up with the addition of features like slide-in casters for the forklift tongue slots and a three-phase configuration.
