Dust Suppression

If you need an affordable, compact dust suppression solution - the Compact Mist Cannon will keep you and your worksite safe.

Product Details

Our Compact Mist Cannon effectively prevents dust from becoming airborne while capturing any particles already in the air. It uses a fine mist of water to bind with dust, creating a cleaner environment.

Ideal for outdoor applications, this portable dust suppressor has an adjustable spray angle from 10° to 50° and a reach of up to 13 meters. It’s lightweight, easy to transport, and perfect for small work areas.

Compatible with standard 240V 10-amp power outlets, it connects seamlessly to a typical water supply and mains power, ensuring quick and hassle-free setup.

Key Applications:

Suppressing dust during:
Excavation
Demolition
Tunnelling
Mining
Roadworks
Recycling
Quarrying
Milling
Crushing
Composting
Unloading
Remediation
Blasting

How Droplet Size Affects Dust Suppression

The optimal droplet size for effective dust suppression is typically in the range of 50–60 microns. This precise size is ideal for capturing and binding with dust particles suspended in the air, increasing the chances of collision and adhesion — especially with fine particulates such as Respirable Crystalline Silica (RCS).

If the droplet diameter is much greater than the dust particle, the dust simply follows the air streamlines around the droplet, reducing the chance of impact and capture. On the other hand, droplets that are too small can evaporate before they make contact.

Control Hire’s dust suppression systems are engineered to consistently produce this optimal droplet size, ensuring maximum dust capture efficiency, better air quality, and compliance with Australia’s stringent WHS regulations.
