Paraflo HorizontalCartridge Filter
Cartridges are easily and quickly
removed and loaded from outside the
collector.
A variety of filter media is available,
including cellulose/polyester,
polyester, and membrane laminate.
Features and Benefits
Parallel air flow with patented inletextends cartridge life and increases
filtration rate.
Heavy duty construction and
powder painting inside and out
provide longer service life.
High efficiency pulsing provides
highest filtration rate in tough
applications.
Modular panelized design allows
easy capacity increases. Multiple
units share common hoppers and
minimize clean air ducting.
Complete selection of cellulose,
spun bond, and membrane filter
media permits a cartridge selection
to meet the unique needs of each
application.
Filter cartridges are conveniently
serviced from outside the collector.
Cartridge changeouts are quickly
performed on the Paraflo.
Superior design increases
efficiency and improvesfilter cartridge life.
The patented Pneumafil Paraflo
horizontal cartridge process collector
is a high efficiency filter that provides
superior performance in a variety of
applications that require high
efficiency filtration.
Paraflo filters are often used in place
of baghouses because of their compact
size, quick cartridge changes, and the
fact that they do not require a confined
space entry permit.
What Sets Paraflo Apart
The Paraflo utilizes four unique
features to achieve superior
performance:
Preseparation removes denser
particles from the air stream prior to
filtration, thereby lowering the amount
of material the cartridges must collect
and raising the filtration rate.
Parallel Air Flow eliminates high
velocity impingement of the
particulate stream on the filter media,
extending cartridge life.
High Efficiency Pulsing System
provides unmatched cleaning
performance while minimizing
compressed air consumption.

How the Paraflo WorksUnfiltered air enters the top of the
collector and is introduced into the
filter compartment through a constant
velocity, tapered flow header 1 . An
inlet flow straightener is incorporated
which minimizes turbulence, entrance
energy losses, and cartridge abrasion.
This header and flow straightenerredirects air flow 2 to be parallel to
the filter cartridges. Gravity and
inertia cause heavier particles to
continue on a downward path 3 into
the hopper.
The lighter, fine dust follows the air
stream and accumulates on the outside
of the cartridges 4 . This causes a
pressure drop (P) increase across the
cartridge media which is constantly
measured and controlled with a dual
setpoint (high-low) photohelic gauge.The cartridges are cleaned by back-
pulsing 2.75-5.5 bar (40-80 psig)
compressed air through a high
efficiency pulsing system 5 to
maintain desired P. Cartridges are Paraflos unique inlet design preseparates dust and extends cartridge life.
pulse cleaned sequentially top-to-
bottom, thereby eliminating excess
cartridge-to-cartridge reentrainment
and maximizing filtration rate. The
loosened dust falls into the hopper.
