Beyond Dust: What's Secretly Destroying Your Baghouse Filter Bags?

Main Causes of Excessive Wear in Baghouse Filter Bags:

  1. Physical abrasion
    High-speed dust particles friction against the filter bag surface, leading to wear over time. In mining and smelting industries, large and high-hardness particles are more likely to cause abrasion.

  2. Chemical corrosion
    Under certain special working conditions, dust-laden gases containing corrosive components such as acids or alkalis can damage the filter bags. This is common in chemical industries with strong acidic or alkaline components, where the fiber structure of ordinary filter bags may deteriorate, reducing filtration efficiency.

  3. High-temperature damage
    In high-temperature environments, dust-laden gases can cause filter bags to deform, become brittle, or even burn. Damage from high-temperature exhaust gases is frequently observed in steel and cement industries, making heat resistance a key criterion for selecting filter bags.

  4. Improper installation
    Non-standard operations during installation, loose fittings, or incorrect sizing can cause friction and pulling between the filter bags and equipment during operation, resulting in damage.

  5. Improper cleaning
    Incorrect methods or excessive force during the cleaning process can harm the filter bags. Overly frequent cleaning or excessive cleaning intensity may significantly shorten the service life of the bags.

  6. Poor-quality filter bag material
    Substandard or non-compliant filter bag materials may lack sufficient strength, making them prone to wear and tearing.
