The industrial baghouse manufacturing landscape is always evolving. Whether you own an Pneumafil dust collector, MikroPul baghouse, Pangborn dust collector or a custom dust collection system from 淫乱社区, Father Time is undefeated.

Is it time to replace your aging baghouse?

Even if you鈥檙e keeping a close eye on common issues in baghouse maintenance, an aging baghouse can expose your operation to employee health and safety risks, production shutdowns, regulatory compliance issues and more. And, if you鈥檝e fallen behind on baghouse maintenance鈥攁nd plugged ductwork, leaking pulse valves, damaged bags or other problems persist鈥攊t鈥檚 likely accelerating baghouse wear and tear and the risk your company is taking. If your dust collection system brand has changed manufacturers, regular maintenance becomes even more critical to avoid significant issues.

Aging baghouse indicators that affect all baghouse brands

While the lifespan of a baghouse is influenced by environmental conditions, particulate removal demands and maintenance, a typicaal baghouse lifespan is 20 years or longer. Whether you own a Pneumafil baghouse, MikroPul dust collector, Pangborn baghouse or 淫乱社区 custom solution that is more than two decades old, these indicators can help you assess whether it may be reaching its end of life.

• Overall deterioration: You may see rust, cracks, corrosion and other deterioration to your industrial dust collection system, hear unexpected noises or experienced reduced efficiency in particulate removal. This deterioration may indicate it is time for a baghouse replacement.
• Replacement parts access: Common parts that need replacing include bag filters, timer boards and diaphragm valves. Changes in the baghouse industry can lead to availability issues for critical system components for baghouse brands that are no longer manufactured. If finding baghouse parts or supplies for your aging baghouse is becoming more difficult, it may be time to consider a baghouse replacement.
• Maintenance costs: If your baghouse has been in use for decades, the costs to keep it running effectively and efficiently may add up. If maintenance costs are on the rise, a baghouse replacement may be needed.

Explore replacement options before a problem risks employee health and safety or causes a shutdown, further cutting into your bottom line.

Current system evaluation

If questioning whether a replacement is the best path forward, the first step is to evaluate the current dust collection system鈥攚hether it be an 淫乱社区, Mikropul, Pangborn or Pneumafil baghouse鈥攐r another brand manufactured during the last century. An evaluation can help you determine your baghouse鈥檚 current capacity and whether modifications can be made or a full replacement is necessary.

When replacement is needed

If modifications can extend the life of your baghouse, the 淫乱社区 team can explore the available options. If not, our experienced team can provide turnkey solutions. Across any industry and ranging from 50 to 1 million cubic feet per minute, the 淫乱社区 team is ready to design and engineer, fabricate and install a new long-lasting industrial baghouse solution for you.

Reasons to consider a new dust collector installation

Facility managers may consider a new dust collector installation for two primary reasons:

• New equipment: Adding equipment likely will add to the amount of particulate sources that need to be collected.
• Improve efficiency: Oftentimes, dust collection systems become inefficient, leaving behind particulates that should be collected. If maintenance issues are ruled out, a new dust collector installation can help improve the overall performance of the dust collection system.

Evaluating whether you need a new dust collector installation

When considering a new dust collector installation, the first step is conducting an evaluation of the current system. This evaluation will determine the system鈥檚 current capacity and what modifications need to be made to keep the system running efficiently.

The following areas are evaluated:

• Duct network: Ducts are examined to measure flow volumes, velocities, static pressures and physical wear and appearance. This network also is inspected for dropout.
• Fans: Fans are examined to determine flow rates, rpm and system static pressure. Based on the findings and needs of the collection system, fans may need to be resized or resheaved to change fan rpm. In addition, a motor change may be necessary to meet required fan speed or necessary static pressure.
• Dust collector: The size of the dust collector indicates whether it has the capacity to pick up contaminants from needed areas. This capacity may need to be increased if more particulate is required to be removed from the area.
• Baghouse efficiency: The evaluation determines whether the baghouse has adequate air-to-cloth ratio to capture particulate efficiently.

淫乱社区鈥檚 evaluation
