Why So Many Different Types of Dust Collector Bags?
With so many dust collectors used in so many different industrial processes, the exact demands on the dust collector bags of each process are bound to vary widely. The performance requirements for a steel foundry dust collector bag, are very different than filter bags used to collect grain dusts at a food processing plant. Even within the same industry, different system configurations can require different solutions to meet a plant’s dust collection needs. High efficiencies might be required from a power generation plant, while a chemical plant will need to have dust collector bags that are acid or alkali resistant such as those made from Ryton® Felt / PPS. A cement producer might have high airstream temperatures that necessitate a dust collector bag that can withstand higher operating temperatures such as one made from Nomex® or Conex®.
Other considerations include price, and bag service life. Larger might be able to afford investing in dust collector bags with a high initial price, in order to gain benefits on the back end through higher efficiencies. Smaller outfits might require bags with a smaller initial capital investment, and are able to sacrifice some on the efficiency end.
