Ducon Cartridge Dust Collector

The cartridge dust collector Kompac Air by MDSJ is a dry filtration system used to purify air from suspended solid particles.

Advantages

The installation of the cartridge dust collector Kompac Air allows treatment of a wide range of pollutants, by ensuring the quality of the air in the production environment and protection for workers. Filter elements cleaning is managed by pressure drop reading, favouring a lower compressed air consumption and an increased life for cartridges. The cartridge dust collector Kompac Air has a high filtering surface, it is compact, easy to handle and transport and quick to install.

How it works

The dusty air is conveyed to the cartridges from the outside to the inside, depositing the impurities on the external part of the filter elements and in the collecting hopper. A compressed air jet, stored in a special tank, is injected cyclically in the cartridges, creating a wave of shaking able to detach and topple the particles deposited on the external part of the cartridges.

Standard equipment for all configurations

  • Filtration chamber

  • Hopper with support legs

  • Maintenance door

  • Cleaning pneumatic system of the cartridges controlled by differential pressure switch

  • Optional equipment for all configurations


Staircase and walkway to access the maintenance door

  • Tank cover

  • Control panel cover

  • Pressure regulator

  • Electrical panel

The cartridge dust collector Kompac Air is modular in its main parts directly by the costumer according to specific needs and type of use. The different configuration in the catalogue comes from the mix of the following variants:

Type of inlet of dirty air (presence or not of pre-filtering chamber for the collection of the biggest dust, it has the task of protecting the cartridges from excessive load of pollutant) Type of dust discharge (collection bin; rotary valve for continuous discharge; combined action of screw and rotary valve) Means of access to the maintenance door and its placement Possibility to use in ATEX area (presence or not of components suitable for potentially explosive mixtures)

Cartridge Dust Collector

Configuration with dirty air inlet directly into the hopper, frontal extraction system of the filtering elements, dust discharge in a special bin placed under the hopper.

Optional equipment for the configuration

Deflector in hopper

Fan + soundproof box to lower the noise produce by the engine (on the top or on the ground)

Operating principle

  • Dirty air enters the unit and passes through purpose-woven filter bags that capture the dust.
  • Particulates are held on the outside of the bags while clean air is sent to atmosphere or to a recovery line.
  • Once differential pressure reaches the set point, solenoid valves fire a brief burst of high-pressure air into each bag (the jet-pulse effect); the shock wave drops the dust cake into the hopper.

Advantages

  • High efficiency: up to 99.9% dust capture, including very fine particles.
  • Continuous operation: bag cleaning runs while production continues, minimizing downtime.
  • Low operating cost: long-life filter bags and optimized compressed-air consumption.
  • Modular design: expandable as capacity needs grow.
  • Compliance: meets emission limits with a safe margin.

Application areas

  • Cement and gypsum, iron-steel and metallurgy, food and feed plants.
  • Chemicals and paints, furniture and woodworking, pharmaceutical industry.
  • Mining crushing/screening, plastics and recycling lines.

Selection criteria

  • Air-to-cloth ratio, dust chemistry, operating temperature, and required airflow are evaluated together.
  • Bag media options: polyester, polypropylene, Nomex (for high temperature), and anti-static fabrics.
  • Pulse-valve count, hopper discharge layout, and maintenance access shape long-term field performance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is a jet-pulse filter the same as a baghouse?

Baghouse is the broader family term; jet pulse is one of the most common automatic-cleaning architectures within that family.

Which bag media should I choose?

Polyester or polypropylene for standard temperatures, Nomex for high-temperature duty, and anti-static fabric for combustible-dust risks.

When does the system clean itself?

When differential pressure reaches the set point, solenoid valves automatically trigger pulse cleaning — without stopping production.
