Dust Collector Uses Less Floor Space
Donaldson Co. announced a new family of
Torit PowerCore dust collectors to meet the
specific requirements of applications
involving abrasive dust. The new VH series collectors, according to the company, are designed to be smaller
and smarter—taking up to 70% less space than other baghouses
and cartridge collectors, and reducing labor costs and downtime by
time-saving filter change-outs that don’t involve confined spaces.
The collectors will handle airflows of 5,000 to 50,000 cfm, using
PowerCore filter packs. One PowerCore VH filter pack replaces up
to 20 8-ft (2.5-m) baghouse bags and up to three standard, round
cartridges. To handle the harsh environment created by abrasive
dusts, the PowerCore VH Series features heavy gauge steel and allwelded
construction. A single-hopper option and single air
inlets/outlets reduce ducting, installation and material handling
costs. The VH Series also includes a zero-turn pulse cleaning
system, which forces dust directly down into the hopper, decreasing
the chance of re-entrainment on adjacent filters.
