Baghouse Dust Collector

Baghouse Dust collector:

Cleantek industrial baghouse dust collector, also known as a dust extractor, is a type of air pollution control equipment designed to capture and remove dust and other particulate matter from industrial processes and facilities.

The primary function of an industrial dust collector is to improve the air quality within a workspace or factory environment by removing potentially harmful airborne particulate matter. Dust collectors can also help to maintain the cleanliness of machinery and work areas, reduce the risk of fire or explosion caused by combustible dust, and minimize equipment downtime and maintenance costs.

Industrial Dust collector:

Industrial dust collectors come in various types, including baghouses, cyclone dust collectors, cartridge dust collectors, and electrostatic precipitators. The most suitable type of dust collector for a particular application depends on factors such as the type and size of the particulate matter, the volume of air to be filtered, and the operating conditions.

Cleantek industrial dust collector is an essential piece of equipment for many manufacturing and industrial processes, helping to protect workers' health, reduce environmental pollution, and increase overall production efficiency.

Major models we manufacturing as follows:

Shaker Baghouses: These use mechanical shaking to dislodge the dust cake.

Reverse Air Baghouses: These use reverse airflow for cleaning.

Pulse-Jet Baghouses: Cleantek Pulse-jet baghouses are the most common type due to their high efficiency and effectiveness in cleaning without taking the system offline.

1. Housing/Enclosure

• The housing is the main body of the baghouse collector that contains all internal components. It is designed to be durable, often made of steel, and withstands varying temperatures and pressure.

2. Inlet and Outlet

• Inlet: Where contaminated air enters the baghouse.
• Outlet: Where clean, filtered air exits the baghouse.
• The location of the inlet and outlet depends on the type of baghouse (top- or bottom-entry). Proper placement optimizes airflow and dust capture.

3. Filter Bags

• Filter bags are the core filtration medium, usually made from durable, high-temperature-resistant materials such as polyester, polypropylene, or fiberglass.
• They capture dust particles from the air stream as it passes through, allowing clean air to flow out.
• Bags vary in length and diameter, depending on the application and dust characteristics.

4. Cage/Bag Support

• Each filter bag is fitted with a metal cage or support frame that keeps it open, allowing for unrestricted airflow and preventing the bag from collapsing under pressure.
• Cages are typically made of stainless steel or galvanized steel to prevent corrosion and extend lifespan.

5. Dust Hopper

• Located at the bottom of the baghouse, the hopper collects dust and particles removed from the filter bags.
• Dust is funneled into the hopper by gravity and is eventually discharged through a valve for disposal or recycling.

6. Cleaning System

The cleaning system ensures the bags remain free of dust buildup, allowing for optimal performance and airflow. Different cleaning mechanisms are used in baghouse systems:

• Pulse Jet System: Uses compressed air to blow dust off the bags in short bursts, typically more efficient and allows for continuous operation.
• Shaker System: Shakes the bags to dislodge dust, commonly used in intermittent applications.
• Reverse Air System: Reverses the airflow through the bags, pushing dust off the bags and into the hopper.

7. Compressed Air Manifold

• In pulse jet systems, a compressed air manifold provides bursts of air to the bags. The manifold is connected to a series of valves and pipes that distribute air to each bag in cycles.

8. Pulse Valves and Diaphragm Valves

• Pulse valves control the release of compressed air for cleaning each row of bags.
• Diaphragm valves regulate the air pulses that dislodge dust buildup on the bags, ensuring effective cleaning with minimal air consumption.

9. Control Panel

• The control panel operates the cleaning system and other automated functions, allowing for adjustment of cleaning cycles, bag pressure monitoring, and system diagnostics.
• Advanced control panels may include timers, alarms, and digital interfaces for improved operational efficiency.

10. Access Doors and Panels

• These provide access to the filter bags, cages, and other internal parts for maintenance or bag replacement.
• Designed to seal tightly to prevent dust leaks during operation.

11. Differential Pressure Gauge

• A pressure gauge measures the pressure drop across the filter bags, indicating when they are clogged or require cleaning.
• High differential pressure suggests reduced airflow, signaling that the bags need cleaning or replacement.

12. Exhaust Fan

• The exhaust fan creates the suction needed to draw air through the inlet and across the filter bags.
• Fan power and size depend on the application, airflow, and system requirements.

13. Rotary Airlock Valve

• Located at the bottom of the hopper, the rotary airlock valve controls the continuous discharge of collected dust while maintaining system pressure.
• This component is critical for applications needing constant dust removal without interrupting airflow.

14. Ductwork and Dampers

• Ductwork transports dust-laden air from the dust source to the baghouse inlet.
• Dampers are adjustable mechanisms that regulate airflow into the collector and maintain balanced pressure.

 A Baghouse Dust Collector consists of several key parts, each essential to its efficient operation. Here’s a breakdown of the main components:
