JetFilter

For filtering exhaust air flows that arise as a result of air displacement when filling bulk material feeders.

Brabender-JetFilter

 

The JefFilter is a low maintenance filter for dusty air that is displaced during the refill cycle of gravimetric feeders.  The displaced air is filtered through a compact pleated cartridge with a large effective area.  This allows for very efficient dust removal with a low pressure drop.  The clean filtered air is vented to the environment.  After each refill cycle, the filter is cleaned by a jet of compressed air and the dusty ingredient is returned to the process without product loss.

 

Depending on the ingredient, flow velocity and the air volume to be filtered, two filters may be used parallel. When used for loss-in-weight feeders, the filters are cleaned at the end of the feeder refill cycle during the material stabilization time minimizing disruptioin of the gravimetric cycle.

Features

  • Filtering of displaced air during loss-in-weight feeder refill
  • Filter cartridge with filter material made of polyester fleece (conforms to FDA and GMP directives)
  • Trapped dust is automatically cleaned by pulses of compressed air (dust falls back into the feeder eliminating ingredient waste)
  • Models available for hoppers up to 1000 dm³
