Increased demands are being placed on air filtration systems. The particular application will determine whether a baghouse or cartridge type is best. Baghouse and cartridge dust collectors both have their place in modern air filtering systems. Baghouses have been in use much longer, but cartridge types offer significant advantages for particular applications. The task facing the site engineer is to match the requirements of the specific application with the inherent characteristics of the dust collector. This article presents basic information about both types of dust collectors that can help provide the best solution to that problem.
