V22Orca

Year-round dust control in extreme conditions

V22Orca is the ultimate dust control solution, specifically developed for harsh climatic conditions. When sub-zero temperatures render traditional water mist ineffective, the V22Orca seamlessly switches to snow production - an industry-first innovation. Thanks to its patented turbine with integrated compressor, this hybrid system ensures optimal dust control in all seasons.

In summer, the system works efficiently with water mist in temperatures up to +40°C, while in winter it fights dust with snow even in extreme cold down to -25°C. Reliable, powerful and adaptable, the V22Orca is built for the most demanding environments.

Design features

  • V22Orca enables effective dust control all year round
  • First hybrid solution on the market - dust control with water mist in summer and snow in winter
  • Snow works exceptionally well because the dust particles adhere to the
  • Automatic switching between summer mode (water mist) and winter mode (snow)
  • The nozzle ring consists of Quadrijet nozzles (for water mist) and nucleator nozzles (for snow production)
  • Four separate water channels that can be controlled remotely or via software

Typical uses

The V22Orca has been specifically developed for northern countries and regions with extreme weather conditions. It is particularly suitable for various industries, including demolition work, harbours, loading facilities, mining and opencast mines.

Site visit, problem identification and planning

To make sure we deliver an optimal and sustainable solution we would like to make a site visit early on in the project, where we jointly look at the dust problem, specific requirements and investment objectives.

Site visit

A site visit early in the project is important to identify a variety of factors that might affect the selection and size of equipment, and any add-ons to achieve the most efficient and sustainable results. Regulatory requirements are also discussed at this stage.

Another important question is how the machine or system will be monitored and controlled, i.e. manually or automatically. Should it be a fixed installation or should it be possible to move the equipment around as needed?

Problem identification

During the site visit we discuss a number of different issues. Here are few examples:

  • What is the source of the dust? Is it a single point or over a large area?
  • What type and amount of dust does the dust source create?
  • Area near the dust source: Wind impact? Machinery, personnel and vehicles in motion? Possible safety hazards?
  • Is electricity and water available at the site?

Planning

Using the information gathered during the site visit, we prepare a summary and review it with the client to ensure that we agree on the scope of the project.

The next step is to start planning the project in order to propose a sustainable solution. At this stage we are in close contact with EmiControls' technical department, focusing on getting the most efficient system possible, with a low operating cost.
