Bag and Cage Installation
Bag and cage suspension from the tube sheet must make a
leak-free seal to insure clean- side / dirty-side isolation.
In top access type filter bags, as shown in above figure,
generally a steel band is sewn into its cuff to create a tight
“pop-in” fit. The steel band snaps out into a round position
when inserted into the tube sheet. This allows for quick and
easy installation and replacement of the filter bags.
It is recommended to position all the bag seams facing in the
same direction. This provides a reference point that helps to
identify problems that result from inlet abrasion.
