This equipment requires use of a collection bag consumable which may be specified from the consumable tab above. The default consumable defined for a Baghouse Filter is a Orlon Bag.
The top part of this interface refers to the required consumable usage of the Baghouse filter. The required consumable type is the ‘BGH Collection Bag’. The user can choose among the consumables of this type (i.e. Orlon bag / Nylon bag) registered in the user databank. Consumable related properties, such as bag diameter, length, area, and material, are displayed on the left side, and the cost/usage related properties on the right side. The user can only change the usage properties from this dialog, specifically the replacement frequency of the consumable. All other properties should be changed from the Consumables Databank Dialog by selecting Databanks / Consumables from the main menu.
The bottom part of the dialog ‘Other Consumables’ table, is refers to additional consumables and it is the same as for any other equipment (e.g., see Disposable Generic Container Skid: Consumables Tab).
In Calculate (Design Mode), the user specifies the Maximum Number of Compartments and Linear Velocity and the system computes the Number of Units and the Vessel Volume.
In User-Defined (Rating Mode), the user specifies the Number of Units, the Number of Compartments and the Number of Bags Per Compartment.
For more information, see Baghouse Filtration: Modeling Calculations.
The equipment purchase cost is based on the total cloth area of the collection bags. By default it is calculated by the programs built-in model for a baghouse filter for the three cleaning types.
