behind the diaphragm (back cell), causing the valve to open
and allowing air to flow from the compressed air header into

a compressed air manifold. A row of bags is cleaned by a

short burst of compressed air injected through the

compressed air manifold (also called blow pipe or purge

pipe).

the short burst of compressed air creates a rapidly moving air

bubble (shock wave) which results in flexing of the bags. This

flexing of the bags breaks the dust cake, and the dislodged
