How It Works

What Is Industrial Air Filtration?

Industrial air filtration keeps dust, fumes and process particulate out of the air your facility exhausts and the air your people breathe. A dust collection system pulls dirty air from the process into a collector, where filter bags, cartridges or panel filters capture the particles and release cleaner air.

Good filtration protects air quality and the work environment, helps plants meet emission standards and keeps fans and process equipment efficient, which helps reduce energy consumption and keeps operation reliable.

The filter is the part that does the work. The right filter media, filter area and fit decide how much dust is captured, how much energy the fan uses and how long the filters last. AFF supplies the filters and parts for these systems, from woodshop dust collectors to baghouses, and helps you match the filter media to your application.

Warning Signs

Signs Your Dust Collector Filters Need Attention

  • Dust visible at the exhaust or around the collector

  • Pressure drop that stays high after cleaning

  • Weak suction at the pickup points

  • Holes, worn seams or blinded filter media

  • Filters that no longer seal in the collector

FAQs

Industrial Air Filtration Questions

Tell us your collector make and model, or your dust and airflow, and we will match the right filter.

What is industrial air filtration?

Industrial air filtration handles the removal of dust, fumes and particle contaminants from process air and exhaust before the air is released or recirculated. In most plants that means a dust collection system, a baghouse or cartridge collector, fitted with fabric filter bags, pleated cartridges or panel filters made from the right filter media.

The main types are fabric filter bags, pleated cartridge filters, panel filters for HVAC and intake air, and baghouse filter bags supported by wire cages. Specialty process filters include fluid bed dryer bags and airslide fabric for conveying bulk powders.

The best industrial air filters are matched to your dust collection needs: your dust, airflow, temperature and collector. Felt filter bags handle heavy dust loads, pleated cartridges add filter area in a compact unit and panel filters protect HVAC and intake air. We help you choose the media and style for your application.

Filter bags handle heavy, abrasive or high temperature dust and are easy to customize. Cartridge filters pack more pleated filter area into a smaller space and suit fine, dry dust. Many collectors are designed for one or the other, so start with your collector make and model.

Replace filters when pressure drop stays high after cleaning, dust shows at the exhaust, or you find holes, worn seams or blinded media. Service life depends on the dust, the airflow and how the system is cleaned.
