The dirty air enters the dust collector body (

) where dust is separated by the filter elements (

).
The dust drops back into the silo, hopper, or bin after an automatic pulse-jet cleaning system (

) has
removed it from the filter elements.

The

dust collectors have the function of separating dust particles conveyed by a air flow or gas,
using filtering elements made from polyester fabric.
The dusty air flow crosses the filter, which stops the dust particles, allowing the air to flow over it.
The dust collected on the filter elements surface is periodically removed by the cleaning system that can be of
the compressed air jet type.
Every other use must be considered improper, therefore not permitted.
The dust collector must not be used as an element for discharging overpressure inside closed volumes.
One or more safety valves must always be provided in the plant to keep the pressure level within the filter
pressure resistance 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 operate the filter unless the plant or the equipment in which in was incorporated is declared compliant
to the requirements of relevant national and local provisions in force.
It is forbidden to use the filter for products which can cause bacteriological contamination.
It is recommended, for safety reasons, not to use clamped filters on the top of silo.
