Protecting Bags for Maximum Collection Efficiency and Longer Life
Dustcake options
Particulate Collecting Artificial Precoat
New fabric receives more airflow

New fabric accepts airflows in the range of approximately 20 to 50 cfm. Filter bags that have been in service and have a good porous dustcake have airflows at 5 to 10 cfm. The new filters will be subjected to three times the airflows as the bags that are currently in service, causing potential damage early in the bags life.
Unprotected fabric
Unprotected new fabric interstices work like miniature venturis to accelerate airflow through the fabric, causing particulate impingement.
How to protect new bags:

Preheat equipment Restrict airflows Lockout cleaning cycle Build good initial dustcake
Initial dustcake requirements:

1. Porous, ensuring high airflows A. Range of particle sizes B. Varying particle shape 2. Provide a uniform coat. (1/16 to 1/8) 3. Material should be neutral (pH). 4. Safe to handle.
New fabric protection & porosity

Embedded Particles in Interstices

Artificial Dustcake
Restricted airflow:
Agglomerated dustcake restricts airflow. Particulate bleedthrough can cause emissions.
Proper artificial dustcake can help

By cleaning the bags thoroughly, and reestablishing a uniform, porous dustcake, we can level-off the damage and recover much of the airflow.
Bag protection options:

Additional reasons to pre-coat:

Moisture can create agglomerated dustcake that destroys airflows; can create acid reaction, rust components Hydrocarbons create sticky dustcake difficult to clean; shorten bag life; high P Sparks burn holes in bags, can cause baghouse fires Neutralize gas stream chemicals
Moisture prevention
Agglomeration of filter bags can be caused by gas stream moisture.

Sparks ruin bags

Bag damage and failure can be caused by spark carryover.

Common Problems: Pulse-Jet

Fine Particle Emissions Particulate bleedthrough of conventional felts Aggressive design - high filtration velocities High Differential Pressure - Loss of Airflow High air-to-cloth ratios Poor cleaning mechanism efficiency Extra drag across filter due to primary dustcake
Common problems:
High differential pressure / loss of airflow - de rate:
High air to cloth ratios Fine particulate Poor cleaning mechanism efficiency
Abrasion failure:
Bottom of filter bags located directly in line with inlet gas stream. Excessive movement of filter causing bag to bag abrasion.
Aggressive cleaning cycles:

Accelerated filter bag fatigue and flex failure.
Difficult installation and removal:

Extra downtime to handle multiple and bulky components. Multiple piece cages. Filter bags can become stuck to cages and have to be cut off. Australasian Agent for

Proper installation of the cuff

1. Form the snapband into the shape of a kidney. The vertical seam in the cuff should be on the outer radius of the kidney shape.

Improper Installation of Snap Band Cuff

Snap Band Cuff installed upside down. Not sealing the PulsePleat properly

Use caution, and ensure all fingers are out of the tubesheet opening when the snapband is released.
Proper installation of the cage
Lower the cage straight down into bag. Do not drop the cage into the bag; lower it by hand to ensure the bag is not spiraled on the cage.
