Farr opens test lab
Jonesboro, AR
Farr Co. has opened a 3,400-square-foot laboratory and test center to assist customers in the design and application of air pollution control equipment such as dust, fume and mist collectors. The core of the facility, housed at the company`s ISO 9001-certified production plant, is the FactSystem, a full-scale test apparatus that performs real-time testing closely simulating actual field conditions. For applications not requiring full-scale testing, the lab also offers a small sample test and analysis program. Dust samples are subjected to a series of bench test procedures to identify challenge contaminants or to troubleshoot problems with existing collectors. Technicians draw on a database of application experience to fine-tune the equipment selection process. — SES
