Effective dust control solutions are necessary for any industry whose production processes generate fine particulate matter as a material byproduct. More than simply a health risk, material dust has the potential to disrupt or halt production, damage equipment, increase plant maintenance costs, and even cause fires or explosions. Keeping industrial facilities and plants dust-free mitigates… Read more »

Many industrial workplaces require dust collection systems that clear away any filter airborne dust, along with other debris, during production. Dust collectors work on the basic premise of catching, transporting, and gathering dust and other particulates. A good dust collector design is one that does all these things well, and safely. As a key part… Read more »

Differential pressure in a baghouse filtration system is an observable measure that ensures the system is functioning properly at all times. When significant changes occur in pressure, it’s an indicator that some type of issue exists which needs to be addressed immediately. A thorough inspection of the unit will need to be conducted to identify… Read more »

Baghouse leak detection powder is used in leak testing procedures during regular dust collector maintenance or troubleshooting potential emissions issues. Leak tests can be conducted as part of periodic preventive maintenance or in the event that a noticeable drop or change in the differential pressure of the system occurs. The application of leak detection powder… Read more »

A pulse jet bag filter, also called a pulse jet baghouse or pulse jet dust collector, is a self-cleaning dry filtration system. The pulse jet dust collector cleaning system removes particulate matter and dust from the surface of internal filter media with bursts of compressed air. Pulse jet bag filters are the most common type… Read more »
