The dirty air enter the dust collector body (

) where dust is separated by the filter elements (
8
).
Dust drops back into the silo after an automatic reverse air jet cleaning system (
3+4+5
) has removed it from
the filter elements.
3.4 Permitted use
3.5 Improper use not permitted
The
SILOTOP
®
dust collector filter has the function of separating dust particles conveyed by a air flow or gas,
using filtering elements made of non-woven polyester fabric.
The dusty air flow crosses the filter, which is able to stop the dust particles, allowing the air flow over it.
The dust collected on the filter elements surface is periodically removed by the compressed air jet cleaning
system.
Every other use must be considered as improper and therefore not permitted.
The dust collector must not be used as an element for discharging overpressure inside closed volumes. One
or more blow-off valves must always be provided in the plant to keep the pressure level within the filter resist
-
ance limits.
The air flow handled by the dust collector must never exceed the value defined in the order phase.
Using the dust collector when the components (filter elements, cleaning system, fan, if present, etc) are not in
perfect conditions can cause harm to persons and to the environment.
Do not start operating the dust collector until the plant or equipment in which it is to be incorporated has been
declared as conforming to the relevant national and local legislative provisions in force.
It is forbidden to use the dust collector in potentially inflammable or explosive atmospheres (ATEX).
It is forbidden to use the dust collector for inflammable (magnesium powder, etc.) or explosive products.
It is forbidden to use the dust collector for products that can cause bacteriological contamination.
