Purpose |
Filter cages provide structural support to filter bags, preventing them from collapsing during operation. |
They are essential in ensuring the bag's surface area is maximized for effective filtration. |
Materials |
Typically made from materials like carbon steel, stainless steel, or galvanized steel. |
The material choice depends on the operating conditions, including temperature, humidity, and the nature of the particles being filtered. |
Design |
Consists of vertical wires and horizontal rings to form a cylindrical shape. |
The design can vary to optimize airflow and minimize wear and tear on the filter bags. |
Considerations |
Cages must be designed to fit precisely within the filter bag and housing. |
They should be corrosion-resistant to prolong their lifespan and maintain efficient operation. |
