Pleated Filter Bags and Cartridges

Pleated filter bags are the first major break-through in fabric filtration since the introduction of ptfe membranes.
As the name suggests, the filter bag is pleated to provide up to three times the filtration surface area of a conventional sock on a cage that it replaces.

Manufactured from spun bonded polyester media and polyurethane tops with either polypropylene or steel cores, the pleated bag comes in a one piece construction for ease of installation and maintenance.

Filtercorp in association with our principals Nordic Filtration of Denmark have worked together to continue the development of this exciting and effective product.

A great deal of research, development and field testing has taken place to perfect a bag that will operate at elevated temperatures particularly in the spray drying industry.

The number of pleats, depth of pleats, selection of media, number and type of bands, core velocities and cleaning system must all be taken into consideration when selecting the right pleated bags.

Upgrading existing bag houses to increase through-put has been a major success story for Filtercorp and the pleated bag, with many installations running in their sixth year.

New bag houses designed around the pleated bag save space as well as cost with reduced operating costs and downtime.
