Because each process is different, extra care should be taken when selecting your dust collector filter media to insure maximum efficiencies and life of you equipment.
- For relatively low to medium temperature operations (Up to 300°F normal operating, 350°F surges) , many collectors perform the best using filter made from Polyester, and Polypropylene felts. In many applications that have heavy dust loads but require high efficiencies such as cement production, or power generation (coal-fired, etc..), the use of fiberglass coated with ePTFE membrane is the best option.
- For higher temperature processes, (400°F normal operating temp, 450°F surges or higher), high temperature fabrics such as Conex™/Nomex™ felts (Aramid fabrics) and P84™ Polyimide felt can be employed.
- Certain applications require dust collector filters with special properties. Filters used in food processing may need to have a food grade rating in order to meet safety regulations. Other processes necessitate the use of antistatic fabrics and coatings such as Epitropic felt with antistatic coating. Others need to be acidic or alkali resistant such as Homopolymer Acrylic felt.
