Effective dust control is claimed for the new skirting system from Superior

The new Skirting System retrofits to any brand of existing structure with little or no field fabrication. Two sets of adjustable legs aid in this universal installation. Additionally, easy to adjust clamping mechanisms are used in place of nuts and bolts to hold skirtboard rubber against the belt. An optional stilling zone is available to accelerate the settling of dust while material is moving inside the system. Superior’s Modular Skirting System is sold in 1.5m sections for conveyor belt widths up to 1.73m.
