For commercial kitchens located in high-traffic urban areas, shopping malls, or residential mixed-developments, smoke and grease discharge is a major environmental concern. EKG M & E Sdn Bhd specializes in the installation and maintenance of Electrostatic Precipitators (ESP). These advanced filtration units use high-voltage ionization to "trap" microscopic grease and smoke particles, ensuring that the air exhausted from your kitchen is clean, clear, and odor-minimized.
High-Efficiency Particle Ionization
As grease-laden air enters the ESP, it passes through an ionizer that gives the particles a strong electrical charge. These charged particles are then pulled onto grounded collection plates, removing up to 95-99% of smoke and grease.
Double-Pass Configuration for Heavy Smoke
For kitchens with high-intensity cooking (woks, charcoal grills, or smoky BBQ), we recommend a "Double-Pass" ESP setup. This places two filtration cells in series, ensuring that even the finest sub-micron particles are captured before discharge.
Washable Aluminum Collection Cells
Unlike disposable filters, ESP cells are made of durable aluminum and are fully washable. We provide professional deep-cleaning services for these cells to maintain their electrical conductivity and collection efficiency.
Integrated UV-C Ozone Treatment
To combat stubborn cooking odors, we often integrate UV-C lamps within the ESP housing. The UV-C light breaks down organic compounds and produces ozone ($O_3$), which chemically neutralizes smells before they exit the building.
Safety Interlock & Auto-Cutoff
Our ESP systems are engineered with safety interlocks. If the access door is opened or a "short circuit" is detected due to excessive grease buildup, the high-voltage power supply automatically shuts down to prevent electrical hazards.
Static Pressure Optimization
ESP units offer very low resistance to airflow compared to traditional media filters. This means your exhaust fan can move more air while consuming less energy, improving the overall efficiency of your ventilation system.
BOMBA & DOE Compliance
Our ESP installations are designed to meet the Department of Environment (DOE) guidelines for clean air discharge and BOMBA requirements for fire safety, helping you avoid fines and neighbor complaints.
Engineering-Grade Maintenance
An ESP only works if it is electrically "tuned." As an M&E firm, we don't just wash the cells; we calibrate the high-voltage power packs (dryers/transformers) to ensure the ionization field is at its optimal strength.
Urban Solutions in KL & PJ
We have extensive experience installing ESP units in the cramped ceiling voids of Kuala Lumpur and Petaling Jaya malls, where zero-smoke discharge is a strict management requirement.
Comprehensive M&E Integration
We handle the entire process—from the initial airflow calculation and ESP sizing to the electrical cabling and final commissioning of the system with your main exhaust fan.
