Causes and solutions of filter bag obstruction

2025-02-18

1.What is the bag of paste (filter bag obstruction)


‘Paste bag’ is the dust bag in long-term operation or out of service in the process, in the humidity or oily substances in contact with the filter media conditions, dust in the dust bag filter surface or the filter material inside the condensation, adhesion of the situation. The external manifestation of this situation is that the resistance of the filter bag increases, which can be found from the increase in the value of the differential pressure meter. Filter bag clogging will cause the effective filtration area of the filter bag is greatly reduced, the air permeability decreased, aggravating the load on the fan, resulting in increased energy consumption of the fan or even can not run.


2. Consequences of bag jamming


Filter bag clogging is the main cause of filter bag wear, perforation, shedding and other broken words, which may lead to serious downtime of the dust collector. A coal-fired power plant in northern China uses more than 6 metres of filter bags, in the process of using a large number of fine dust adsorbed on the surface of the filter bag, resulting in the dust collector operating resistance from 1500Pa to 2200Pa, resulting in a total shutdown, bringing great losses to the power plant.


3. Reasons and solutions for possible clogging of the filter bag

Phenomenon Investigation Items Measures
Filter bag damp Water leakage, etc. Eliminate leaks, dry filter bags, repeat cleaning
Insufficient tension of filter bag Tensioning method Adjust, repair
Improper filter bag installation Installation method Adjust, repair
Filter bag shrinkage Identify cause Replace bag
Filtration too fast Airflow Adjust
Dust accumulation Identify cause Remove root cause, repair
Dust clogging at bottom of filter bag Identify cause Adjust, repair
Poor dust cleaning Poor ash seal Adjust, repair
Malfunction of dust cleaning mechanism
Insufficient backflushing air volume
Insufficient blowing pressure
Faulty pulse valve Repair, replace
Nozzle detachment Reinstall
