Pauli Systems blast room installation and service
Pauli Systems blast rooms are used for enclosed abrasive surface preparation on parts that need controlled containment, dust collection and room to handle the workpiece. Double D Mechanical installs, relocates and services blast room equipment with attention to enclosure placement, air movement, media handling, exhaust, utilities and maintenance access.

Room Size Around The Work
A blast room has to fit the part, the operator's movement and the handling method used to bring work in and out. Door swing, crane coverage, carts, forklifts and turntables should be reviewed before the enclosure is set so production flow is not pinched at the entrance.
Dust Collection And Air Replacement
Blast rooms depend on controlled airflow to pull dust away from the operator and toward collection equipment. Exhaust routing, collector placement, duct support and replacement air need to be coordinated with the building so the room does not fight nearby process exhaust or pressure changes.
- Confirm where collectors and fans can be serviced.
- Keep discharge routes clear of future roof or wall conflicts.
- Plan make-up air with other high-volume exhaust equipment in mind.
Media Recovery Underfoot
If the room includes reclaim equipment, the floor layout affects daily cleanup and abrasive reuse. Grating, hoppers, screw conveyors, pneumatic recovery lines and separator access should be planned with the slab, anchoring points and maintenance routes before work starts.
Connections For Operation
Compressed air, electrical power, lighting, controls and dust collector wiring all need clean routing around the room. Early coordination helps avoid conduit or pipe paths that block doors, service panels, collector drawers or abrasive loading points.
Details To Gather Before A Visit
Useful site information includes room dimensions, part sizes, handling equipment, photos of the current blast area, dust collector data plates, utility locations, ceiling height, slab conditions and known operating issues such as poor visibility, slow reclaim or excessive dust escape.
Frequently asked questions
What makes a blast room different from a paint booth?
A blast room is built for abrasive surface preparation, so the enclosure, floor recovery, dust collection and compressed air demands are different from a coating enclosure.
Can an existing blast room be moved?
Relocation can be evaluated when the enclosure condition, reclaim system, collector location, duct routes, utilities and new building clearances are known.
What workpiece information matters most?
Overall length, width, height, weight, lifting method and how operators reach each face of the part all affect room layout and access.
Why is replacement air important?
Exhausted air must be replaced in a controlled way so doors close properly, dust capture remains steady and nearby processes are not disrupted.
What should be checked during service?
Common review points include filters, ducts, fan operation, collector seals, lighting, door seals, reclaim components, compressed air drops and control functions.
