Improving The Cleaning Cycle In Baghouse Collectors
By Brian Mathews and Glenn Bitner, Scientific Dust Collectors

The dust collector has been around for many years. The generic pulse jet baghouse in particular has been around since 1963 and the cleaning cycle has not changed much in over 45 years. The cleaning cycle is the most important part of the dust collector. In a generic baghouse, an orifice and venturi system are used to induce air; whereas Scientific Dust Collectors uses a converging/diverging nozzle developed in the late 1970's. The converging/diverging nozzle allows for more cleaning air to be induced into the bag compared to the generic orifice and venturi system. It is because of this that Scientific Dust Collectors can operate at higher air-to-cloth ratios, clean more of the filter bag, and provide longer filter life...

Featured Products
CO2 Gas Analyzer
Using new optical filter technology, the Model 410i from Thermo Fisher Scientific is designed to monitor and report on CO2 stack gas levels utilizing either of the accepted industry standard sampling methods, Straight Extractive Sampling or Dilution Sampling. Download the product datasheet for specifics.

Catalytic Oxidizer Systems
These units contain a catalyst section after the combustion chamber that allows the VOC's to be destroyed at a lower temperature. Depending on the application and type of catalyst used the destruction of the VOC's takes place at temperatures from 500 to 6a00 degrees Farenheit. Request additional information from Controlled Environment Equipment.

Regenerative Thermal Oxidation
MEGTEC offers regenerative thermal oxidizer packages designed to meet your specific application need. Regenerative thermal oxidizers (RTO) offer superior heat recovery characteristics versus any other oxidation system. RTOs use recovered energy to pre-heat incoming process air to oxidation temperatures. Download the product brochure for details.

Oil Skimmer
The Abanaki TubeTastic! oil skimmer can be used on machining centers with little or no access to the coolant sump from above. This unit can skim oil from chip conveyors or even totally enclosed machining centers. Request more information from Abanaki on this product.
