The Modular Baghouse collector comes in two models: the MBT allows walk-on, top access to the bags (clean-air side) of the collector. This configuration is ideal for indoor or tight budget applications. The MBW offers a walk-in clean-air plenum, so bags can be replaced in any kind of outdoor weather.
The MB has two inlet configurations; the most common configuration allows the dirty-air to enter through the hopper inlet located under the bag filters. The dirty air hits a deflector at the end of the inlet, which causes heavy particulate to fall directly into the hopper. This reduces the amount of dust that comes in contact with the bags resulting in longer bag life and lower pressure drop. For applications with light and fibrous dust, a high body inlet is available that reduces upward air velocities allowing the dust to properly fall into the hopper after the bags have been pulsed.
Modular Baghouses are a reflection of Donaldson Torit’s commitment to technical research and development. Sophisticated FLUENT®* computer airflow analysis has been used to assure the Modular Baghouse provides a uniform airflow resulting in reduced bag abrasion, longer bag life and lower maintenance costs.
For applications with heavy dust loading, the MB has an easy to use Dumpster Discharge. This option provides either a two or three cubic yard self-dumping dumpster that can be hauled away with the use of a forklift. The dumpster comes with a lid that seals the system so that no rotary valve is required. The lid is lifted off of the dumpster via a mechanical lift, which is included with the package.
Traditional 16 oz. polyester bags are produced with a needling process that creates larger pores where dust can embed into the fabric, inhibiting cleaning and reducing bag life. Dura-Life bags are engineered with a unique hydroentanglement process that uses water to blend the fibers. This process provides a more uniform material with smaller pores, better surface loading, and better cleaning. These advantages provide twice the operating life before bags need to be replaced due to pressure drop. Longer life from Dura-Life bags lowers maintenance and operating costs and raises baghouse dust collection to a whole new level.
