Designed to collect fugitive dusts by means of air withdrawal. Once the loading process begins, the attached blower draws up fugitive dusts as they are generated by the material flow stream. Once arriving at the In-Line Filtration System, the fugitive dusts are captured in a series of pleated polyester filter cartridges. Throughout the loading process, automatic reverse pulse jets inject compressed air to purge the captured dusts back into the load. Thus, the In-Line Filtration System is designed to minimize product loss and prevent dusting to atmosphere. *To reduce energy consumption, compressed air is only forced through the reverse pulse jet system during loading operations. It is not a continuously running system.<\/p>\n

Vortex Filtration Systems vs. Alternatives<\/p>\n
\u2022 Central dust collection systems often require the installation of additional ductwork, a discharge airlock, and some way to dispose of collected dusts \u2013 or, someway to reintroduce collected dusts back into the manufacturing process. The Vortex\u00ae In-Line Filtration System is more cost-effective than central dust collection systems because it is a self-contained unit. \u2022 Compared to central dust collection systems, the Vortex In-Line Filtration System is a better performing unit. This is because central dust collection systems are exactly that: centralized. Often times, the central dust collector is located away from the point of loading. A central dust collector also supports other equipment throughout the process, which creates multiple \u201cpick-up points\u201d in the dust collection system. In order for the central dust collector to be connected to each of these processes, ductwork can become lengthy and with many bends. In addition, faulty connections may allow air and dusts to escape to atmosphere. Each of these variables can impact the strength and balance of air withdrawal, which limits the overall performance of a dust collection system.Because the Vortex In-Line Filtration System is a self-contained unit which keeps captured dusts at the point of loading, it ensures that air withdrawal strength and other performance factors are kept constant. \u2022 Central dust collection systems often incorporate larger-sized exhaust blowers, typically ranging from 20-100 horsepower (HP) \u2013 and sometimes, even larger. Because central dust collection systems also support other stages in the process, the exhaust blowers are running almost constantly \u2013 even when loading operations are not being performed. This results in high electrical consumption. Alternatively, the Vortex In-Line Filtration System features a stand-alone exhaust blower which runs only when loading operations are being performed. Therefore, the Vortex In-Line Filtration System significantly reduces energy costs. \u2022 Other in-line filtration systems offered by the industry have bulky designs, making them challenging to install in limited space applications. The Vortex In-Line Filtration System\u2019s compact, square-shaped design is ideal for limited space installations. \u2022 Other in-line filtration systems offered by the industry have horizontally mounted filter cartridges, which allow heavy, high density dusts to build up in the filters. These dusts may not be dislodged by pulse cleaning. To address this issue, the filter cartridges can be periodically accessed and maintained to help dislodge dusts \u2013 but this recreates the original workplace safety problem of employee dust exposure and its potential health risks. The Vortex In-Line Filtration System\u2019s filter cartridges are vertically mounted to allow dusts to release from the filter pleats without having to fight gravity. This reduces the load on a filter cartridge and helps extend its service life. Vertical mounting also reduces employee dust exposure, since the filter compartments must only be opened for filter cartridge replacement or infrequent maintenance. \u2022 The Vortex In-Line Filtration System is not a dust \u201ccollector\u201d; it is a dust \u201cfilter.\u201d The primary difference being that with the Vortex In-Line Filtration System, dusts are temporarily captured before being purged back out of the filter cartridges and back into the material flowstream. By better managing dusts at the point of loading instead of routing them to a central dust collection system, it results in the following benefits: \u2022 Improved profitability by loading out the dusts as product, rather than moving them to a central dust collector as waste. \u2022 By continuously purging dusts back out of the filters, it keeps the filters clear and increases their service life. \u2022 If a central dust collection system\u2019s waste storage container is not regularly emptied, dusts may back up in the system and create clogs. This can result in dust overflow, which may cause dusts to escape to atmosphere and can create potential hazards in the workplace. Because the Vortex In-Line Filtration System is a self-contained unit which continuously filters and reintroduces dusts back into the material flow stream, rather than collecting dusts, this concern is addressed. \u2022 Many in-line filtration systems incorporate two spiral hoses at each filter cartridge: one hose to force compressed air into the filter cartridges, and a second hose to exhaust spent air back out of the filter cartridges. Over time, these hoses can rot and crack, which may cause failures in the reverse pulse jet system. To reduce spare parts necessity and other maintenance costs, the Vortex In-Line Filtration System has replaced the second (exhaust) hose with an exhaust cap. The exhaust cap draws spent air directly through the filter cartridge before it is exhausted to atmosphere.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
