Denray Machine develops Down Draft Drug Table

Mt. Vernon biz builds machine for inmate, law enforcement staff safety
The Lawrence County Sheriff’s Office received a new piece of technology for its new jail courtesy of Mt. Vernon manufacturing company, Denray Machine, Inc.
This new piece of equipment is called a “Down Draft Drug Table”. It’s the first of its kind designed specifically for jail settings. Its purpose is to remove contaminants from a person and their property before being processed into the jail.
When a person is taken into custody and they are suspected of possibly being contaminated with a known or unknown substance, they can then go inside a “locker” type area and the machine works to remove even the smallest particles, down to .2 microns, from the person, clothing and other items such as bags, back packs, etc.

The machine was designed for removing dangerous drug residue such as fentanyl from a person without exposing staff.
By doing this before the subject enters the jail area, it can prevent that subject from bringing additional contaminants that could harm other inmates and jailers.
This new equipment comes as the Lawrence County Sheriff’s Office opens its new state of the art jail and Sheriff’s Office.
In business for 30 years, Denray Machine, Inc. is a local business in Lawrence County that has manufactured products similar to this for other industries and have now begun manufacturing for law enforcement and emergency services.
