Triboflow Bag Leak Detectors or Cartridge Filters, Broken Bag Systems and Dust Monitors by Auburn Systems

ABOUT TRIBO.series TECHNOLOGY

Auburn's TRIBO.series products utilize proven triboelectric technology, invented by Auburn nearly twenty-five years ago. The technology is EPA tested and recognized for MACT and CAM compliance. Products range from basic bag leak detection to plant-wide, networked monitoring systems that consolidate more than 2000 points at one PC.
An Introduction to Triboelectric Measurement As dust particles collide with a probe, they generate a charge transfer. This is referred to as frictional electrification. Tribo.series products detect the signal created by the changes in particulate concentration, as in the onset of a bag leak, and activate operational functions such as alarms, relays and/or data logs. Unlike optical devices that rely on clean, aligned lenses and the indirect measurement of light transmission, Tribo.series products are a virtually maintenance-free, direct method of bag leak detection. Auburn devices can detect baseline signals as low as 0.005 mg/m3 in dust collector emissions.

Important Safety Information All Auburn Triboelectric dust detectors and flow blockage systems are designed intrinsically safe and, if properly utilized, have never caused dust ignitions or explosions since triboelectric dust detection technology was introduced, by us, nearly twenty-five years ago.
