Houston Material Handling Society October 2008Baghouse Cleaning Control Presented by:T.J. Winalski
Agenda Overview Baghouse Cleaning Control Particulate Monitoring Diagnostics
Baghouse Basics • Baghouses can be very efficient in collecting particulate • Media – many media types for different processes • Pressure Loss (Drop) of a baghouse is function of: • Baghouse Design • Media Type • Air Flow • Dust Layer Thickness • Cleaning Media – All media needs to be periodically cleaned to maintain acceptable pressure drop • Cleaning is controlled either by Time OR Differential Pressure
Baghouse Basics • Ensure cleaning air supply is sufficient (flow/pressure) • Cleaning air supply should be clean and dry • Keep air to cloth ratio at acceptable levels • Avoid condensation in baghouse

Membrane Media In - Depth Filter Material (Felt) Membrane Depth filter media e.g. PPS felt Conventional Media Depth vs. Surface Filtration – Filtering Mode
Solenoid Activation: Current Timer Board • Controls Solenoid ON Time and OFF Time • OFF Time • Adjustable off time 3-600 seconds • Stand Alone of through Other Device

Types of Cleaning Modes • Time Only • Pulse On Demand • Single Set Point Hold
Pulse on Demand – 30 days DP 4 DP (“ WC) 2 4 12 20 28 Days
Single Set-Point: Hold 4.7” WC DP Pulse Rate
Single Set-Point: Hold 4.0” WC Pulse Rate DP
Single Set Point: Hold 6.5” WC - 12 days DP Particulate
IntelliPulse – Single Set-point Control Pulse Rate DP
Single Set Point Hold Control: 1 day DP Pulse Rate
Single Set Point Hold - Benefits • Constant Air Flow Through the Baghouse • Minimum Compressed Air Use – for Cleaning • Maximum Filter Life • Reduced Maintenance due to longer component life • Lowest Particulate Emissions
Single Set Point HoldActual Electricity Savings from Compressed Air
Comprehensive Cleaning ControllerFunctionality • Pulse Control for Each Individual Solenoid Cleaning Modes • Off • Time • Once Through • Cycle Down • Pressure • Single Set Point Hold • POD Full Solenoid Control – Easily Selectable and Adjustable • Multi-Row Pulsing • Pattern Pulsing
Single Set Point Hold Control - Benefits • Steady Differential Pressure by Maintaining Filter Cake • Constant Air Flow through Baghouse • Lowest Particulate Emissions • Optimum Operating Costs • Maximum Media Life • Lowest Compressed Air Usage • Optimum Fan Volume • Minimize Maintenance Costs through longer life of components
Requirements of Today’s Technology: • Comprehensive Cleaning Control • Integrate Particulate Sensing • Integrate Differential Pressure Sensing: Tube DP or Non-Clogging DP Transmitter • Integrate I/O’s • Ethernet/Fieldbus Communication • Performance • Reliability • Flexibility • Information • Communication

Diagnostic Capability Instrumentation is the window into the process • Failed Solenoids • Failed Diaphragm (header pressure) • Failed Filter by Row (particulate) • Process Conditions – high DP, low Header Pressure, air temperatures, moisture, fan vibration, bearing temperatures, etc.
COMPRESSED AIR SENSOR • Checks compressed air (gas) header pressure • Mounted in the compressed gas manifold • DELTA P SENSOR • Non-Clogging Type for reliable maintenance free measurement • Mounted on Dirty Side • Accurate Reliable Measured Differential Pressure • Quick Clamp Connection • PARTICULATE SENSOR • Passive Sensor • Protected Probe Technology • Mounted in clean air duct
Diagnostics • Bag Row Leaks • Particulate • Failed Individual Solenoid • Failed Individual Diaphragm • Header Pressure Compressed Air (Gas) • Differential Pressure • Read Locally Or On HMI
Conclusion • Comprehensive Cleaning Control • Operate as a Stand Alone Controller (harsh industrial environments) • Operate out of the box for any baghouse, bin vent to 80 row baghouse • Reliably Monitor Particulate Emissions • Communicate with a HMI
