How does a cartridge air cleaner work?
Contaminated air is drawn through high-efficiency cartridge filters, where the particulate is collected on the outside of the media. Filtered air is pulled through the system and exhausted. The filtered air then passes through the clean air plenum and is exhausted. The venturi pulse or patented Injection Self-Cleaning System (ICS) blows compressed air through the filter in the reverse direction, thus dislodging smoke and dust from the filter. The solid pollutants are then collected in a dust drawer or barrel for periodic disposal. This method allows for multiple loadings and unloadings on the filter media.
