5. FILTERMODULEUpper part of the dust collector housing that
contains the cartridge filters, filter access
doors and filter cleaning system (compressed
air reservoir, purge pipes, solenoid and
diaphragm valves).

6. HOPPER
Lower part of the dust collector that
funnels dust that is captured in the
collector down into a disposal channel or
device. In the photo above, collected dust
is discharging through a rotary airlock
and down into a large, common bin on a
lower level. 55-gallon drums are common
discharge devices that connect directly to
the hopper with a flexible hose.

7. LEGSUPPORT
STRUCTURE
Supports the entire dust collector
housing. Typically designed for seismic
zone 3 and 100 mph wind load.

8. CONTROLPANEL
Filters are automatically back-flush cleaned
with periodic pulses of compressed air,
typically through an on-demand setting in
the electronic control panel. The control
panel sends signals to solenoid valves,
which trigger powerful blasts of air from
the compressed air reservoir through
diaphragm valves.

9. FAN
The typical arrangement of the fan
(sometimes called a blower) is to pull
air through the dust collector, creating
a suction to draw dust into the filter
module. The fan can be mounted on top,
or remotely from the dust collector via
ductwork.

10. Tool-less quick-open access doors to
super-fast cartridge filter change-out
system that does not require entry
into the dust collector. Cam-operated
clamp bars provide filter clamping
and sealing.
