As an auxiliary device for pulse-jet dust collectors, the inert powder feeder adds inert powder through a lockable lid to the lower edge of the feeder’s fan inlet. The powder is then lifted by compressed air or a screw conveyor and blown or sucked through the fan and a flexible hose into the ductwork upstream of the dust collector to create a dust cloud, The powder is then adsorbed onto the filter cartridges to form a protective layer, preventing sticky dust from coming into direct contact with the cartridges and causing adhesion.<br> The feeder typically operates in conjunction with the dust collector; however, if manual operation is required, the feeder is designed to function independently.<br> The level of the inert powder is monitored by a sensor. If the level falls below the minimum threshold, an alarm will sound. At this point, the lock cover must be opened to check the amount of inert powder inside and refill as needed.
