Abstract: Filters capable of dissipating static charges. One example includes a filter media pack comprising fluted media secured to facing media; the fluted media having cellulose fibers; and the fluted media including an amount of carbon black sufficient to impart a static charge dissipative property thereto. One example includes an air filter cartridge having a filter media pack comprising fluted media secured to facing media; the fluted media comprising cellulose fibers; the fluted media having at least one side coated with a static charge dissipative amount of a metallic coating. These filters are useable in, for example, dust collectors.

Abstract: The technology disclosed herein relates to a filter media having a fiber matrix and a binder distributed throughout the fiber matrix. Conductive particles are impregnated in the binder matrix and a flame retardant distributed throughout the fiber matrix and the binder matrix. The filter media can be incorporated into various types of media pack assemblies for air filtration including coiled media, pleated media, and stacked filter media. A method is also disclosed where conductive particles are distributed in a binder and a fiber matrix is impregnated with the binder. A solution containing at least 5% flame retardant solids is formed and the fiber matrix is saturated in the solution. The saturated, impregnated fiber matrix is dried and cured.

Abstract: A dust collector includes a housing with a tubesheet and at least one filter element. A reverse pulse cleaning arrangement is provided to periodically emit gas pulses into a downstream flow face of the filter element. The reverse pulse cleaning arrangement includes at least Q number of blow pipes directed at the filter element, with Q being an integer of at least 2 or greater and is calculated based on filter length, filter width, pulse over coverage, and the maximum pulse non-coverage.
