Dust Collectors

Downflow Cartridge Dust Collector

Downflow Cartridge Dust Collector

A downflow cartridge collector in which air and dust travel downwards through the unit, helping dust drop into the hopper and keeping filters cleaner for longer.

Downflow Cartridge Dust Collector

Overview

Overview

In a downflow collector, dirty air enters at the top and travels downwards through the filter bank. Gravity works with the airflow, so released dust falls straight into the hopper instead of being pulled back onto the filters.

This arrangement suits heavier dust loads and helps reduce re-entrainment, which can extend filter life and keep pressure drop stable.

Key features

  • Top inlet with downward airflow pattern
  • Horizontally mounted cartridges for easy access
  • Pulse-jet cleaning with adjustable timing
  • Hopper and dust disposal options to suit your process

Typical applications

  • Thermal cutting and welding
  • Abrasive blasting
  • Powder coating and finishing
  • Mineral and chemical powders
