Baghouses – ESP
Electrostatic Precipitators
Sonic
horns are proven alternatives to supplement and in some cases completely
replace mechanical rapping systems on collection surfaces, electrode
wires, and inlet distribution plates. Elimination of hopper pluggage
can be achieved by installing units in the hoppers. Acoustic cleaning
improves efficiency, increases precipitator uptime, reduces precipitator
maintenance, and may prevent grounding problems. Sonic horns also effectively
clean turning vanes.
Baghouse Fabric Filters/Elements
Sonic
horns are a proven method for cleaning in reverse air and shaker type
baghouses. The units are effective in reducing pressure drop, increasing
bag life, decreasing manual cleaning, and reducing hopper pluggage.
There are also potential applications in Pulse Jet Collectors – Cleaning
of the elements if the compartments can be isolated – and in the hoppers.
