Purex Pulse Jet

As the demands of high-speed production continue to rise, the existing extraction systems have struggled to keep up. With speeds surpassing 30,000 codes per minute, many industries face challenges in maintaining efficient filtration. To address this, the Purex engineering team has developed the Pulse Jet (PPJ) system, specifically designed for high-usage applications.

Introducing the Purex Pulse Jet

Key features

Purex Pulse Jet technology

Using compressed air purex's patent-pending technology increases the filter life whilst filtering up to 0.9 microns

Adjustable airflow

Allowing for precise control over the amount of air circulating through the system, crucial where airflow requirements may vary depending on specific tasks or environmental conditions

Automatic electronic flow control

Engineered to maintain a constant extraction rate even as the filter begins to block, ensuring consistent performance and efficiency over time.

…plus these other great benefits

  • High performance machine, ready to go
  • Highest grade HEPA and carbon technology

Purpose and Methodology

The PPJ technology builds on the robust Purex 800i system - a market leader in extraction solutions for the laser coding industry. The PPJ unit uses compressed air to periodically clean filters, blowing debris into a collection tray for easy disposal. This system includes:

  • Purex Pulse Jet Unit: Uses compressed air to clear filters, capturing the bulk of particles in a collection tray for safe disposal. The system uses F9 filters, capable of filtering up to 0.9 microns.
  • Purex 800i: Generates the airflow that extracts particles through the PPJ. It uses a combination of pre-filters, HEPA, and carbon filters to capture even finer particles, ensuring clean air output.
  • Collection Unit: Safely stores the particles, making disposal safe, easy and controlled.

Real-World Testing, Results & Benefits

In partnership with a global leader in the laser coding industry, our state-of-the-art Purex Pulse Jet system was tested in a high-demand environment where products were marked at a rate of up to 36,000 codes per minute, 24 hours a day. Their existing filtration unit required a full filter replacement every two weeks, leading to significant downtime and cost.

During testing, our PPJ system demonstrated remarkable improvements in production efficiency:

  • Increased cylinder filter lifespan: Required changing every 3 weeks, during this time an average of 28 million codes had been completed.
  • Increased labyrinth pre-filter lifespan: 6 weeks before needing replacement.
  • Increased HEPA/Carbon filter lifespan: 10 weeks before needing replacement.
  • Collection bin feature: The PPJ collection tray was emptied into the collection bin at the start of every 8-hour shift. It was filled every 4 weeks with a significant amount of captured debris.

As a result, the Purex Pulse Jet drastically reduced downtime, required fewer manual interventions and produced long-term cost savings.
