Guidelines: Fabric Filter Trial Bag Test
Before switching to a new type of baghouse filter media, or a new bag design, we recommend performing a field test under typical operating conditions. Regardless of reasons for considering a bag change--extending bag life, improving efficiency, lowering cost, reducing pressure drop, supplier change, or better compatibility with process/gas chemistry--a trial provides valuable information to help you successfully achieve your goals.
A trial bag testing program involves selecting a representative location for the new bags, recording details about the bags and where they're placed, directly comparing new existing bags with new trial bags, supervising bag installation to prevent damage to media, and performing periodical checks on the bags.
