What Is a Swing Arm Type Bag Filter Housing
A swing arm type bag filter housing (side-opening rotary type) features the following structural characteristics:
Structural Features:
-
A rotating arm is mounted on the side or top of the housing, allowing the cover to open and close via a hinge or pivot shaft.
-
Sealing is typically achieved with clamps or a few bolts (4–6 pieces); some models are equipped with hydraulic assist mechanisms for easier operation.
Operating Procedure:
-
Loosen the clamp or bolts
-
Swing the arm to open the cover
-
Replace the filter bag
-
Close the cover
-
Tighten and seal
Typical Applications:
-
Medium-capacity filtration systems: Flow rates of 2–10 m³/h, with tank diameters ranging from 400 to 800 mm
-
Frequent maintenance operations: Environments where filter bags must be changed daily, such as in the food & beverage or pharmaceutical industries
-
Space-limited scenarios: Ideal where no fixed hoisting equipment is available, but ease of operation is still required
Advantages:
-
Fast cover opening (approximately 10 minutes)
-
Low labor requirement
Limitations:
-
Lower pressure resistance (typically ≤ 0.6 MPa)
-
Hinges may experience wear over long-term use
