Cloth filter
| |
| Cloth filter installation exist from a casing in which a filter medium (the cloth) has been introduced. By this cloth the casing of the filter are divided in a so-called "dirty "part and a "clean" part. The dirty part, where with substance load air comes in, is itself generally located to the base or on the center section of the casing . Incoming air does not flow generally directly to the filters, but it is interfered by one or several distribution plates. The aim of this is a better distribution concerning the cloths as a result of which these are burdened more evenly. Also air loses a large part of its kinetic energy, therefore a pre-separator takes place under the influence of the gravitation. Air polluted with substance is conducted by the cloth filter and is stripped of dust particles . The dust is removed periodically of the filter and is collected in a funnel placed under the filter installation (hopper). |
