An electrostatic precipitator for a Brazilian commercial kitchen is an in-duct unit, or a hood with the cells built in, that charges grease and smoke particles and collects them on washable plates. Polygee supplies the electrostatic precipitator Brazil kitchen projects fit from its factory in Zhangjiagang, China, configured for the 60 Hz supply on the order, with a minimum order of one unit and a 7–15 day lead time.
This page helps you decide whether a factory-direct electrostatic precipitator suits your Brazilian project, whether the in-duct unit or the ESP hood is the route to price, which of the two meets Brazil’s compulsory certification list and who carries that step, and what to put in the first enquiry. It does not size a unit, quote a price, obtain a certificate or lodge an import declaration. For model tables, see the LK in-duct range and the HME ESP hood; for what sets the number, see what sets an electrostatic precipitator price.
| Question | Our answer |
|---|---|
| Supplied in Brazil before? | Brazil is on our shipped list; no Brazilian installation is published, and this page does not name one. In the three months to late September 2026 more enquiry forms reached us from Brazil than from any other single country, all through the ESP hood page |
| Minimum order and lead time | One unit; 7–15 days as standard, with freight to your port quoted with the Incoterm |
| Two routes | An in-duct LK or LK-E unit, the filtro eletrostático behind any hood, from 2,000 m³/h per unit; or an HME ESP hood, a coifa with the cells and the fan inside, in twelve models |
| Site supply | 60 Hz, configured on the order; the distributor’s nominal low-voltage supply, 220/127 V or 380/220 V three-phase among the levels adopted in Brazil; the brochure input is 220 V for in-duct units, 380 V configured to order, and 380 V for HME hoods |
| Import | The importer of record must hold a Siscomex habilitação from Receita Federal; commercial hoods sit at item 80 of INMETRO’s compulsory certification list, and the certificate number is a condition for import; the in-duct unit’s classification is the certification body’s call; we hold no INMETRO certificate and supply the technical file |
| Delivery point | CIF Santos, or the port your forwarder clears at; FOB or EXW when they book the sea leg |
| Warranty | One year on the complete unit; UV lamps and carbon media, where fitted, are consumables |

Shipped to Brazil, no project named, and what our enquiry log shows
Brazil is on the list of countries we have shipped Polygee units to, on the Americas line with the United States, Canada, Mexico and Colombia. No Brazilian installation is on the published project record, and this page does not name one. What we can add is a pattern from our own enquiry log rather than a project: in the three months to late September 2026, more website enquiry forms reached us from Brazil than from any other single country, and every one of them came in through our ESP hood page rather than through the in-duct pages. That tells you two things before you write. Brazilian buyers are already enquiring factory-direct, and most of them start from the hood, the coifa, which is the route that meets Brazil’s compulsory certification list first, as the import section explains.
| Record | What it shows | What it does not show |
|---|---|---|
| Brazil on the shipped list | Units have cleared Brazilian customs before | Which port, which route, how the units perform, or anything about your project |
| Enquiry log, three months to late September 2026 | Brazil first among countries by form count; every form arrived through the ESP hood page | How many became orders, or that a hood is the right route for you |
| Published project record | No Brazilian site | — |
This table answers what the record is. It does not answer how your installation will perform; that depends on your cooking load, the delivered airflow, capture at the hood and how the cells are cleaned, none of which a shipping record can settle.
Two product routes, and the Portuguese names that pick them
The Portuguese names sort the routes before any drawing does. A coifa industrial is the hood over the cooking line, and it is the term most Brazilian enquiries start from; a filtro eletrostático or precipitador eletrostático is the electrostatic stage that collects grease and smoke particles; a lavador de gases is a wet scrubber, a water-wash technology we do not make. Our two routes map onto those names. The HME range is a coifa with the electrostatic cells and the fan built in. The LK and LK-E units are the filtro eletrostático installed in the duct behind any hood, including a coifa fabricated in Brazil, which is the split many projects end up with. A specification that says ecology unit means the multi-stage version of the in-duct route, the electrostatic stage first with UV-C and activated carbon behind it for an odor condition, set out in eight sizes on the kitchen ecology unit page. We make all of it, and in Brazil the choice carries a consequence beyond space and cooking line: the two routes meet the certification list differently.
| Route | What it is | Better fit when | Main limitation | What it means for your quote |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| In-duct LK or LK-E unit (filtro eletrostático) | An electrostatic precipitator mounted in the extract duct downstream of any hood; single units from 2,000 m³/h, scaled in parallel; the LK-E series in three tiers at or above 90, 95 and 98 percent design efficiency, 33 models | The coifa is being made locally; several cooking lines or tenant kitchens share one extract; the duct run or plant room has room; an odor stage may be added in the same run | Needs straight duct length and access on one side for washing the cells | Price the unit and, separately, the duct adapters your contractor supplies; say whether UV-C or carbon stages are in scope; ask the certification body how it classifies an in-duct unit before the proforma invoice |
| HME ESP hood (coifa with the stage built in) | A canopy with the electrostatic cells and the fan built in; twelve models; brochure input 380 V, configured for 60 Hz on the order | A single cooking line; a fit-out where the ceiling void has no room for an in-duct unit; the hood and the filtration are wanted from one maker | One hood, one line; and as a commercial hood it sits at item 80 of INMETRO’s compulsory list, so certification by an accredited body precedes import | Price by hood length and cooking line; the fan is inside the hood; add the certification step, its time and its cost, confirmed at quotation |
This table answers which route to price. It does not answer the model within the route; that follows the extract rate and the cooking load, and the offer names it.
What a factory-direct order covers in Brazil, and what stays with your contractor
A factory-direct order covers the equipment, the paperwork and remote support. Everything that happens on site in Brazil stays with your local contractor, and three things that happen before and at the border stay with Brazilian parties: the Siscomex habilitação and the import declaration with the importer of record, the INMETRO classification and any certification with the importer and its certification body, and the approvals with the authorities your contractor submits to. Settle who owns each line below before comparing offers, because a line left out of one quotation does not disappear; it moves to another invoice.
| Item | Factory-direct from Polygee | Your Brazilian contractor, importer or certification body | What it means for your quote |
|---|---|---|---|
| In-duct unit or ESP hood, with the high-voltage power supply and control gear | Supplied, configured for 60 Hz and the stated site voltage | — | The part every offer should price the same way, so state the route, the airflow and the supply |
| UV-C or activated carbon stage, where an odor condition calls for it | Available as modules in the same run | — | Say whether an odor stage is in scope; two offers with different stage lists are not comparable |
| Extract fan | Inside an HME hood; available with an in-duct unit, selected on the total static pressure of the run and configured for 60 Hz | Usually in the mechanical services package for in-duct installations | Say which you want, or the offer that includes a fan will read as the dearer one |
| Ductwork, transition pieces, attenuators and any fire protection on the duct; a locally made coifa | Not supplied | Yes | Adapter work left unstated turns into a variation after the order |
| Supports, hangers and structural work | Not supplied | Yes | Module and hood weights come with the general arrangement drawings |
| Installation labor and commissioning attendance | Not included; paid on-site service is available | Yes | Price installation locally against our drawings |
| INMETRO classification of the offered route and, where it applies, certification by an accredited body | Technical file, test samples and factory access | The importer of record, with its certification body | Agree who leads it, and its time and cost, before the proforma invoice is issued |
| Siscomex habilitação, the import license where one is required, the import declaration, duties and taxes | Commercial invoice, packing list and the certificate references on them | The importer of record, or its customs broker | A consignment with no habilitado importer named cannot be declared |
| Submissions to the fire brigade, the sanitary authority or the design consultant | Documents prepared against the reviewer’s list | The submission itself | A late request delays approval, not delivery |
| Spare parts and consumables | Common spares held in stock | Decide the holding you want | Quote them with the unit, so the first order is budgeted |
This table answers who supplies what. It does not answer what any of it costs; that follows the route, the airflow and the configuration.
Commercial terms, stated up front
Only the lines that change because the destination is Brazil are written out here. The terms that apply to every order, payment, Incoterms, spares, remote support hours, OEM branding, the NDA and the pre-shipment inspection, are on our electrostatic precipitator supplier profile and are not restated, so you can hold any offer against them, ours included.
| Term | What applies to a Brazilian order | What it means for your project |
|---|---|---|
| Site supply | Configured for 60 Hz and for the voltage and phase count measured at the panel | State the measurement and the frequency; a 60 Hz order is a configured order, not a stock pull |
| Delivery point | CIF Santos or the port your forwarder clears at; FOB or EXW when they book the sea leg | Name the port and the Incoterm; the proforma invoice is priced on that basis |
| Clearance party | The importer of record, habilitado in Siscomex, lodges the import declaration through its customs broker; the same importer answers the INMETRO classification with its certification body | Both are Brazilian parties; agree who they are, and which habilitação modality the importer holds, before the proforma invoice |
| Approval documents | CE and RoHS certificates for the models they name, the ISO certificates, the third-party test report for the model offered, general arrangement drawings and specification sheets | Send your reviewer’s list early; an INMETRO certificate, where the route requires one, is obtained in Brazil and is not in this pack |
| Minimum order and lead time | One unit; 7–15 days as standard | A single trial unit is a normal first order; freight time, and certification time where it applies, are added on top |
| Warranty | One year on the complete unit; UV lamps and activated carbon media, where fitted, are consumables and are not covered | Budget consumables separately when an odor stage is in scope |
| Everything else | Payment, Incoterms, spares, remote support hours, OEM branding, NDA and factory inspection | Read them on the supplier profile; they do not change for Brazil |
This table answers what changes for Brazil. It does not answer the price, which is set by the route, the airflow and the configuration as explained in what sets an electrostatic precipitator price.
Site power: 60 Hz, and the 220/127 V or 380/220 V question
Brazil runs at 60 Hz. The system operator, ONS, writes its frequency-control instruction around a nominal value of 60.0 Hz, and ARSESP, the São Paulo state regulator, puts it plainly for consumers in its booklet on supply voltage: the normal frequency at the socket is 60 Hz. The voltage is where Brazil differs from one address to the next. The federal regulator ANEEL sets the steady-state voltage limits in PRODIST Módulo 8, in Tables 1 to 11 of its Annex 8.A, by the nominal voltage of the connection point, and the ARSESP booklet lists the low-voltage levels adopted in the country, 220/127 V and 380/220 V three-phase among them, with the note that the value varies with the locality. Which one reaches your kitchen is decided by your distributor and your address, and a building can carry 220/127 V in one city and 380/220 V in the next. Two consequences follow for the order. The frequency does not match our brochure input of 220 V, 50 Hz for in-duct units and 380 V, 50 Hz for HME hoods, so a Brazilian order is configured for 60 Hz: the high-voltage power supply, and any fan we supply, are built for it, and the enquiry has to say so. The voltage is taken from the 220 V or 380 V side of the distributor’s supply, so write down what the panel that will feed the unit gives you, single-phase or three-phase, as measured by your electrical contractor. Mexico is the other 60 Hz market in the Americas on this site; the same configuration step, with 220 V taken between the phases of a 220Y/127 V supply, is set out on our electrostatic precipitator Mexico page.
| Site fact | Where to read it | What to state in the enquiry |
|---|---|---|
| Frequency | The distributor’s connection; the system operator holds the grid at a nominal 60.0 Hz | “60 Hz”; the power supply and any fan are configured for it on the order |
| Voltage and phase | The switchboard schedule and a measurement at the panel feeding the unit | 220 V single-phase or 380 V three-phase as measured, with the distributor’s nominal system named, 220/127 V or 380/220 V |
| Isolator position and feeder route | The electrical contractor’s drawings | Nothing on the unit; it decides whether the access side of the run, or the hood’s service side, stays clear |
This table answers what to state about the supply. It does not answer whether the feeder is adequate; that check belongs to your electrical contractor, against the electrical data on the specification sheet.
Import: the Siscomex habilitação and the INMETRO question
Three things stand between a proforma invoice and a cleared container in Brazil, and all three belong to Brazilian parties. The first is the importer itself. Receita Federal requires any company that declares goods to be habilitada in Siscomex, through its Habilita system on the Portal Único, in one of three modalities: Expressa, reserved for listed companies and public enterprises; Limitada, which caps imports at US$50,000 or US$150,000 in each period of six months, according to the importer’s estimated financial capacity; and Ilimitada, with no cap. The habilitação is free of charge. The buyer consequence is plain: a first-time importer on the Limitada modality should set the cap against the value of the order before the proforma invoice is issued, because a multi-unit program can cross it.
The second is INMETRO. Portaria Inmetro 148/2022 sets out, in Table 1 of its Annex III, the household and similar appliances that must be certified before they are sold, and INMETRO’s own reading of the table includes products with a similar function under another name and products not intended for ordinary household use that can be a source of danger to the public. On that table, item 80 is commercial hoods not intended for household use, rated up to 250 V single-phase or 480 V otherwise; item 23 is cooker hoods and smoke extractors above household stoves; item 48 is air purification appliances for household and similar use; and item 50 is appliances with an electric motor for industrial and commercial use. Receita Federal adds the border consequence: for products subject to compulsory certification, the number of the safety certificate issued by an accredited certification body is a condition for import, and the product is then registered with INMETRO before it is placed on the market. As we read the table, an HME ESP hood is a commercial hood and item 80 applies to it. We hold no INMETRO certificate today, and this page does not pretend otherwise; for the hood route in Brazil, certification by an INMETRO-accredited body is a project step that the importer leads as the Brazilian supplier of record, with our technical file, test samples and factory access, and its time and cost are confirmed at quotation. An in-duct LK or LK-E unit is neither a hood nor a household air purifier; whether item 48, item 50 where a fan ships with it, or none of the entries applies is the certification body’s classification, and the enquiry should carry its answer rather than assume one. That reading is ours, not a ruling.
The third is the license. Where a product falls under INMETRO’s control, the import runs through a non-automatic import license with INMETRO’s consent in the Portal Único; the importer or its broker checks the tariff classification against the administrative treatment published on the Siscomex portal, which points to the import simulators for the answer, and tells you whether a license is needed before the goods ship. Duties and taxes on the import are the importer’s to confirm at quotation, as is the packing declaration for any timber packaging; ask your broker what they need and put it in the enquiry.
| Step | Who does it | What we supply |
|---|---|---|
| Name the importer of record, its Siscomex habilitação modality and its customs broker | You, or your contractor | The proforma invoice, issued to the importer; the order value, so the Limitada cap can be checked |
| Classify the offered route against Table 1 of Annex III to Portaria 148/2022 | The importer, with its certification body | Specification sheets, general arrangement drawings and the electrical data of the offered configuration |
| Certify, where the route falls under the table; the hood route does, as we read it | The importer, with the accredited certification body | Technical file, test samples and factory access; CE certificate FQC2602501 for the models it names, RoHS certificate BKC25114877LC for the lines it names, the ISO certificates and the third-party test report for the model offered; no INMETRO certificate is held |
| Check the administrative treatment and obtain the import license where one is required | The importer, or its customs broker | The tariff description and the technical data the license application asks for |
| Lodge the import declaration | The importer, or its customs broker | Commercial invoice, packing list and the certificate references on them |
| Packing declaration for timber packaging | The broker asks; the packaging is confirmed at quotation | The packaging stated on the proforma invoice |
Santos and the Incoterm
Most Brazilian projects land at Santos. The Santos Port Authority describes the Port of Santos as the largest port complex in Latin America, Brazil’s principal port by value of cargo handled, historically responsible for at least a quarter of the country’s foreign trade, and sited some 70 km from São Paulo. A project in the south or the northeast names its own port, and your forwarder will tell you which one they clear at. A CIF quotation names the port as the delivery point; a FOB or EXW quotation hands the sea leg to your forwarder and the port question moves to them. Transit time is the one figure this page cannot give you. Ask for it with the proforma invoice, add it to the 7–15 day lead time and, on the hood route, to the certification time, and check the total against your on-site date.
| Project region | Usual gateway | What to write in the enquiry |
|---|---|---|
| São Paulo, the southeast and inland states that route through it | Santos | “CIF Santos”, and who clears at the port |
| The south or the northeast | The port your forwarder clears at | “CIF” with that port named, and who clears there |
| Anywhere, when your forwarder books the sea leg | The Chinese load port named on the proforma invoice | “FOB” or “EXW”, with your forwarder’s details |
This table answers which port to name. It does not answer the transit time or the clearance cost at the port; both come from your forwarder and customs broker.
Documents for the consultant or the authority
We prepare the submission pack against the list your reviewer issues: certificates, third-party test reports, general arrangement drawings and specification sheets, put together for the market you are submitting in. The approvals themselves stay with your contractor: the fire brigade, the sanitary authority and the design consultant review the installation through the project’s own submission, and nothing in the pack is an approval or an INMETRO certificate.
| Document | What it supports | What it does not prove on its own | What to check |
|---|---|---|---|
| CE certificate FQC2602501 (Machinery, EMC and Low Voltage directives) | Conformity of the models it names: the LK series LK30–LK480, the LK-E series and the UV series | Coverage of any model not named on it, the HME hoods included; acceptance by a Brazilian authority or certification body, which the CE marking does not address | Match the model numbers in the offer against the certificate |
| RoHS 2.0 certificate BKC25114877LC | Restricted-substance compliance for the lines it names, the LK, LK-E and HME series among them | Coverage beyond the lines it names; electrical safety of any kind | The same model-number check |
| ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 certificates (ABZB25Q30072R3M, ABZB25E30043R3M, ABZB25S30027R2M) | The management systems the factory works under | The performance of any particular unit | Ask for copies with the pack |
| Third-party test report ZY05W230298 (CMA-accredited) | Grease removal of up to 97.6% on LK units at rated, evenly distributed airflow, under that test | An odor result, a result at another velocity, a result at 60 Hz, or the result on a different model or on a hood | Request the report itself and check the serial-number link and test conditions before treating the figure as a performance basis |
| General arrangement drawings and specification sheets | Dimensions, flange sizes, weights and electrical supply of the offered configuration, hood or in-duct | That the unit fits your duct route or the hood fits your cooking line; that check belongs to your contractor | Send them to whoever coordinates the ceiling void or the kitchen fit-out, and to the certification body with the technical file |
This table answers what each document can carry in a submission. It does not answer what your reviewer or certification body will accept; only their list does that. Send it to us early in the enquiry and we will work out with you how to cover each item.
The certificates behind these numbers are listed by product line on our ESP certifications page. The company facts a vendor registration usually asks for are on our electrostatic precipitator supplier profile. Our units are exported to 50 countries, Brazil among them.
What to send for a quotation
An enquiry that says “coifa, send price” gets back a number that cannot be compared with anything, and in Brazil it may also get back a certification question nobody had budgeted for. The sheet below is what turns it into a quotation you can line up against other offers, including a local fabricator’s. It carries three lines a domestic enquiry does not: the 60 Hz frequency, the importer’s habilitação, and the certification body’s classification of the route.
The 10-Input Brazil ESP Enquiry Sheet — the ten lines that make a Brazilian quotation comparable with any other. The ten market-neutral inputs behind every country sheet, with where each one is found and what comes back, are set out in our electrostatic precipitator quotation guide.
| # | Send us | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Extract rate in m³/h, and who set it | Fixes the model size, or the number of hoods |
| 2 | Cooking style and load | Sets the electrostatic tier, and whether an odor stage is worth discussing |
| 3 | The space available for an in-duct unit with its access side marked, or the cooking line length for a hood; and whether a coifa is being made locally | Decides the route, and within it the arrangement |
| 4 | Site power supply: voltage and phase as measured at the panel, and the distributor’s nominal system | Brazil is 60 Hz, so the order is configured; 220 V single-phase or 380 V three-phase as measured sets the build |
| 5 | Whether the extract fan is in our scope, for an in-duct installation | Keeps offers comparable; an HME hood carries its own fan; a fan may move the in-duct unit’s classification |
| 6 | Delivery point and preferred Incoterm, the importer of record, its Siscomex habilitação modality and its customs broker | Fixes the freight basis of the proforma invoice, who the documents are issued to, and whether the Limitada cap is in play |
| 7 | Whether the importer’s certification body has classified the offered route against Table 1 of Annex III to Portaria 148/2022 | Settles whether certification precedes import, and puts its time and cost in the offer rather than at the port |
| 8 | Who reviews the submission, and the document list they issue | Lets us assemble the pack to that list |
| 9 | Required on-site date | Shows whether the lead time, freight and any certification time fit your schedule |
| 10 | The Portuguese term your project documents use: coifa, filtro eletrostático, precipitador eletrostático or lavador de gases | Tells us which route you have been asked to price, and whether a wet scrubber has been specified that we do not make |
What you get back:
- The route the offer is based on, in-duct or hood, and the model selection at your airflow, configured for 60 Hz
- The pressure drop of an in-duct unit stated as complete unit, or the hood’s own fan data
- A proforma invoice on your Incoterm, issued to the importer of record
- The technical file list for the certification body, the certification step where the route requires it, and the submission pack list matched to your reviewer
- The warranty and consumable boundary, in writing
There is no list price, because the number follows the route, the airflow and the configuration. What sets an electrostatic precipitator price explains what moves it.
Scope and limits
Three layers clear separately. Layer one, the offer: the route, the configuration, the terms, the documents and the shipping record. Layer two, the site: the habilitação, the classification and any certification, the import license and declaration, installation, ductwork, supports and access decide whether that configuration goes in as quoted. Layer three, operation: delivered airflow, capture at the hood, cleaning and consumables decide the result at the discharge. Passing one layer does not clear the next. A shipping record belongs to layer one only.
- No prices appear on this page. Send the enquiry sheet and the price comes back against a stated configuration.
- No transit time is stated. Ask for it with the proforma invoice and add it to the 7–15 day lead time.
- No Brazilian project is named. Brazil is on the shipped list and the enquiry log shows the pattern described above; neither is a performance record.
- The INMETRO reading is ours. Which entry of Table 1 applies to a route is decided by the importer’s certification body, not by this page; we hold no INMETRO certificate, and nothing here says a unit carries one.
- No Brazilian standard is interpreted here. Where your specification cites an ABNT standard, your consultant reads it; we supply the data the reading needs.
- Certificates cover the models they name. The CE certificate does not name the HME hoods; check the model numbers on each certificate against the offer, ours included.
- Nothing here is an approval. The fire brigade, the sanitary authority and the design consultant decide on the documents your contractor submits, so send us their list before the pack is assembled.
- No cleaning interval is given. The washing interval is set in writing for your site with the configuration proposal.
Key takeaways
- Record: Brazil is on the shipped list and leads our enquiry log, but no project is published; the test report, not the shipping record, speaks to performance.
- Route: a coifa enquiry points to the ESP hood and to item 80 of the compulsory list; a locally made coifa with the stage in the duct behind it points to an in-duct unit and a classification question; an odor condition points to the ecology unit configuration.
- Supply: Brazil is 60 Hz, unlike the brochure input, so the order is configured; state 220 V or 380 V as measured and name the distributor’s nominal system.
- Import: the importer must be habilitado in Siscomex, and the certificate number from an accredited body is a condition for import where the route falls under Table 1; both belong to Brazilian parties, and we supply the file.
- Enquiry: the 10-Input Brazil ESP Enquiry Sheet makes quotations comparable; “coifa, send price” does not.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Have you supplied electrostatic precipitators in Brazil?
- Brazil is on the list of countries we have shipped units to, but no Brazilian installation is on our published project record, and this page does not name one. What we can say is that in the three months to late September 2026 more website enquiry forms reached us from Brazil than from any other single country, all of them through our ESP hood page. A shipped list proves that units have cleared Brazilian customs before; it does not prove the result at your discharge.
- Does the unit need reconfiguring for Brazil’s 60 Hz supply?
- Yes, for the frequency. The brochure input is 220 V, 50 Hz for in-duct units and 380 V, 50 Hz for HME hoods; Brazil runs at 60 Hz, so the high-voltage power supply and any fan are configured for 60 Hz on the order. The voltage follows your distributor: the regulators’ tables list 220/127 V and 380/220 V among the low-voltage levels adopted in Brazil, so write down the voltage and phase measured at the panel and the build is configured to it.
- Does an imported kitchen electrostatic precipitator need INMETRO certification in Brazil?
- For a hood, as we read the list, yes: Table 1 of Annex III to Portaria Inmetro 148/2022 names commercial hoods not intended for household use at item 80, and Receita Federal makes the certificate number issued by an accredited certification body a condition for import. We hold no INMETRO certificate today, so for the hood route certification is a project step the importer leads with our technical file and test samples. For an in-duct unit the classification is the certification body’s call; ask before the proforma invoice.
- Is a coifa industrial the same as an electrostatic precipitator?
- No. A coifa is the hood over the cooking line; an electrostatic precipitator, a filtro eletrostático or precipitador eletrostático in Portuguese, is the stage that collects grease and smoke particles. Our HME range is a coifa with that stage and the fan built in; our LK and LK-E units sit in the duct behind any hood, including one made in Brazil. A lavador de gases is a wet scrubber, a different technology we do not make.
- How do I get a price for an electrostatic precipitator in Brazil?
- Send the extract rate, the cooking style, the space or hood length, and the site supply as measured, with the frequency noted as 60 Hz. Add whether the fan is in scope, the delivery point and Incoterm, the importer of record and its Siscomex habilitação, whether its certification body has classified the route, the reviewer’s document list and the on-site date. There is no list price; you get back a model selection, a proforma invoice on your Incoterm to Santos and the document list for your reviewer.
Specifying an electrostatic precipitator for a Brazilian kitchen?
Send us the extract rate, the cooking style, the space you have and the site supply as measured, and tell us which Portuguese term your project uses. We will come back with the route the offer is based on, a model selection and its pressure drop at your airflow, configured for 60 Hz, a proforma invoice on EXW, FOB or CIF terms to Santos or the port you name, issued to your importer of record, the technical file list for the certification body, and the list of documents we will prepare for your reviewer. Where the route falls under the compulsory list, the certification step is set out in the same offer.
