Description
SIDEROS CYCLONE PRE-FILTRATION SYSTEM VORTEX
SIDEROS CYCLONE PRE-FILTRATION SYSTEM VORTEX
VORTEX takes the coarse and hot fraction out of the airstream before it ever reaches the main filter.
Two problems it solves
Filter cost.
Coarse particles blind a fine filter fast. If your main filters are being changed on a short cycle, you are not filtering — you are consuming filter media as a wear part. A cyclone strips the heavy fraction upstream by inertia, with no media and nothing to replace.
Spark risk.
Grinding and cutting send hot particles down the duct. A hot particle landing in a dry filter cake is a fire in a dust collector — the exact event your explosion protection document is written to prevent. The cyclone separates and quenches the heavy hot fraction before it reaches combustible media.
Where it belongs
Any grinding, cutting or deburring line where the main collector is a dry filter unit, and any installation where an ignition-source assessment has flagged hot particle carryover.
Features
- Inertial cyclone separation — no filter media in the pre-stage
- Extends main filter life and reduces consumable cost
- Reduces hot particle and spark carryover to the main filter
- Retrofittable upstream of existing extraction

Sideros Engineering
Roussakis Supplies is the official partner of Sideros Engineering in Greece. Sideros Engineering designs and manufactures welding automation, industrial fume and dust extraction, and sheet metal handling systems at its facility in Italy. The range is built for heavy fabrication — the kind of work where the weldment is too large to move by hand, the plate is too heavy to lift safely, and the fume and dust generated are a documented occupational and explosion risk.Why Sideros for defence and naval fabrication
Defence and naval manufacturing in Greece is moving fast — armoured vehicle programmes, naval newbuilding and refit, and lightweight aluminium structures. All three create the same three problems on the shop floor: awkward weldments, hazardous atmospheres, and welding procedures that must be qualified, repeatable and documented.Sideros equipment addresses each one directly:
Positioners bring the weld to the welder. Welding downhand instead of overhead or vertical means fewer welding positions, which means fewer qualified WPS, fewer WPQR, and faster qualification of a new programme. ATEX-rated extraction makes aluminium fabrication legally workable.Grinding and cutting aluminium produces a combustible dust with a hydrogen risk in wet collectors. This is not a comfort issue — it is ATEX 2014/34/EU and EN 60079 territory. Fume extraction is a compliance requirement, not an option.** Welding fume has been classified as a Group 1 human carcinogen since 2017. Extraction at source, per EN ISO 21904, is now the expected standard in any audited facility.Local engineering, not just supply
Sideros equipment is supplied through Roussakis Supplies with in-house capability behind it. We integrate positioners with EWM welding sources and the EWM XNET Welding 4.0 platform, giving weld-by-weld traceability, paperless WPS/WPQR management and real-time deviation detection — the documentation trail a defence or classification audit expects. We hold over 30,000 product codes with major brand access and ex-stock availability, in-house know-how for large turnkey welding and positioner projects, and local support for any project based in Greece.
