Formulas used in designing
The filtering surface (SF) given in m2 is estimated using the following expression:

SF [ m 2 ]= 0 . 26Fc 0 .18 +3500 .5

Where:

F = gas flow at 25 C given in m3/min


c = concentration of dust given in g/m3
= average diameter of the particle, in m
For example, con F=700 m3/min , c = 40 g/m3, = 50 m :

SF [ m 2 ] =[ 0 . 267 00( 40)0 .18 ]+ [ 350( 50 )0 . 5 ]=403 m 2

Volume occupied by the filter (m3)

= 0.33 SF; 133 m3 for the examp

Consumption of compressed air (Nm3/h)

= 0.215 SF; 87 Nm3/h for the exa

Surface occupied by the filter (m2)

= 0.047 SF; 19 m2 for the example

In case the values of c and are unkown, an appropriate expression is:

SF [ m2 ]0 . 014Q ,

Q must be given in Nm3 /h
