The
Torit/LMC - FTD series of top door pulse jet filter is the first
choice of larger operations.The top door service of filter media allows complete
maintenance to be performed from the exterior of the filter. Applications
include, saw dust, agricultural products, chemicals, cement and rock crushing.
The Torit/LMC - FSD series of pulse jet filters are
an economical and popular choice. The filter media is cleaned by short pulses
of compressed air. Applications include wood chip and sawdust, agricultural
products, chemicals, cement and rock crushing.
Torit/LMC
- LP Series of walk-in filters is the premium choice for processing
and manufacturing applications requiring dust and emissions control. This style
of filter system is excellent for areas with inclement weather or around the
clock operation. Applications include, food processing, wood dust, agricultural,
energy, and the plastic industry.

"Energy saving Equipment"
The main focus of ther project was to design a heavy duty,
energy efficient system that would provide the customer with the added capacity
that their growing company required. The customer was applying for energy
efficiency rebates from the sate and their utility. The customer required
minimal disruption in their production. The existing chip bim with cyclone
was used to store all of the collected dust.
Their existing push in cyclone with baghouse type after filter
was using a 50 hp main fan, a 30 hp material hndling fan (to the chip bin)
and
a 3 hp booster to run the plant at an ait volume of 11,000 cfm. With that,
zones had to be gated and shifted to operate. There had been some problems
with blockages in the airlocks.
The system designed by AIR-TEK NW used a single 60 hp high efficiency airfoil type blower on the clean air side of a modern pulse jet baghouse to provide 16,000 cfm. The fan blowing up to the cyclone by the main blower.
The model FTP-144-10 pulse jet baghouse, airlocks, high efficiency
blower, silencer and some special components were designed and built by LMC
West of Riverbank, CA. This baghouse provides 2,400 spuare feet of filter
for an air to cloth ratio of 6.67/1. It also features a
"walk-in-plenum"
for easy inspection and service of the filters in any weather.
Much of the existing ductwork was left in place. Only areas where the line needed to be increased for the added air volume was replaced. New 24" diameter airlocks were used on the gaghouse discharge and the cylclone on the chip bin to eliminate blockages.
The project was began on Wednesday before Thanksgiving 2001,
and was running by Sunday evening. The following week the old
cyclone was
removed.
The total project cost $88,707. Rebates and incentives covered 38% to reduce Woodcastle's bill to $33,282.00. The rebate was based on cfm/kwh efficiency. The system proposed by AIR-TEK Northwest was at least 18% more efficient than the next closest vendor resulting in a higher rebate to the customer. Estimated yearly energy savings are $8,059 even with the increased volume.
