Meeker Equipment Freedom Air Reverse-Air Baghouse
BY AsphaltPro Staff
Meeker Equipment Co. Inc., Belleville, Pennsylvania, has launched the Freedom Air reverse-air baghouse. Hot air containing fine particles enters the baghouse’s tapered center plenum, evenly distributing air across all bags. Meeker uses variable frequency drives (VFDs) on one to four stainless steel turrets atop the baghouse to move them faster or slower depending upon dust loading on the bags. The turrets pulse the bags in various configurations to allow even flow of dust from the baghouse back to the drum or batch processes.
If a turret ever goes off line, the baghouse can still operate. The operator simply takes the selected turret off-line and the plant continues. This is another unique feature of the Meeker Freedom baghouse.
