Reverse Air Bag House

Clair Reverse Air Bag House (RABH) dust collectors are highly durable bag filters and have the capacity to handle large volumes of gas. RABH are of modular construction because of the nature of dust cleaning mechanism used. The modules are isolated during cleaning process and also have the flexibility to be isolated for online maintenance or inspection purposes. 

The dust-laden gases pass through an inlet plenum and are then distributed into each modules of RABH. The design of RABH is made to ensure that the gas distribution is uniform across all the modules of the bag filter. The gases first enter the hopper in each module and they pass through the bags that are installed on the bag tube sheet located just above the hopper. Most of the dust in the gases drops out in the hoppers due to gravity caused by change in gas path and velocities. The gases pass through the inside of the filter bags, where it is deposited, and the clean, filtered gas passes through the filter bag and outside of the modules. The filtered, clean gases are vented out to the stack by an induced fan. 

During cleaning mode of the bag house, reverse air, which is again part of the cleaned gases, is passed (for a predetermined time) from outside to inside of the bags to clean the deposited dust. During the cleaning operation, the module is first isolated by closing the inlet dampers to stop the flow of gas in. Reverse air fan is used to draw the clean gas, from the outlet plenum, back into the module for cleaning purposes. The dust which is collected in the cleaning process is discharged through the hoppers.

In the yesteryears, RABH was largely used in following applications in Cement. However lately most of the cement manufacturers are moving to Pulsejet Bag Filters for higher efficiency and space saving.
