Compared to numerous other air pollution control devices, the dry fabric
filter is by far the most efficient and reliable. Contrary to other
filtering methods, variations in dust loading or air volume will not
change the outlet conditions of a well-designed dry fabric collector.
The pulse jet system outperforms conventional dry fabric filter units
since it allows the use of highly efficient felt filter fabrics.
The dust is collected on the outside of the filter
bags. At regular intervals, a burst of metered compressed air is
injected through the PULSE collector parabolic velocity stacks to
dislodge the agglomerated dust that falls into the hopper.
Using top quality needle felt media of appropriate
weight and construction enables maximum filtering efficiency to be
attained. A full range of natural and synthetic felts is available to
meet your specific requirements: Fibreglass, Polyester, Nylon, Nomex,
etc. All bags are accessed from the top of the collector thus
eliminating the need for dirty side entry to change and service bags.

Theory of operation
The dust ladden air enters the collector through the
side that incorporates a vertical deflector plate. Once inside the dust
accumulates on the surface of the bag filter creating a surface cake.
Reverse blasts of air are introduced at specific intervals, cleaning the
bag surface and sending the debris towards the hopper. This unit
utilizes venturis to accelerate the blast into the bag creating a more
efficient cleaning.
Maximum filtration can be obtained through selection
of certain items that include bag types, can velocity, collector shape
and arrangement.
Example:
Fibreglass
Polyester
Nylon
PTFE
Nomex
Etc.
Steel internal cage supports with venturis are used
to keep the bags in place and in proper form. These cages are accessed
from the top and also aid in sealing the bags.
Advantages
