Pleated Baghouse Filters
Longer Filter Life, Higher Efficiency & Cost-Savings
Donaldson Pleated Bag Filters
Donaldson® Torit® proven technology for your baghouse collector combines the superior performance of Ultra-Web® nanofiber technology with a sturdy spunbond polyester substrate. These pleated bags provide higher efficiency, longer filter life & greater cost savings. Upgrade from fabric-style filter bags to Ultra-Web® SB pleated bags.
Donaldson Ultra-Web SB Advantages
- Advanced media is more efficient in capturing submicron dust particles (0.3 micron and larger)
- Longer filter life and better pulse cleaning due to surface loading technology
- Lower energy use with better pulse cleaning and lower operating pressure drop
- Cleaner air, longer filter life, and greater cost savings
Oval Configuration for Pleated Bags
Donaldson Torit also offers an oval configuration to the Torit pleated filter bag program that allows Donaldson to put its nanofiber technology into all popular makes and models of baghouse collectors.
Pleated Bag Solutions to Common Filtration Problems
| Common Filtration Problem | Pleated Bag Solution |
| Not Enough Filter Area | Pleated bag filters can provide almost twice as much filtration area in existing equipment due to the increased media in the pleat pack design. |
| High Pressure Drop | the airflow stays the same. The pressure drop also decreases. |
| Abrasion | Pleated bag filters are shorter than the fabric bags they’re replacing. This allows for a larger drop out area and less opportunity for bag abrasion. |
Ultra-Web SB offers all the benefits of spunbond media, plus the superiority of nanofiber technology allowing for the capture of submicron particulate reducing stack emissions. | |
Pleated bag filters offer up to 2-3 times the filter life over 16 oz. polyester felt bags. |
