A small leak or contamination can easily cause excess emissions and process problems in baghouses. We aim to help reduce downtime, increase equipment life cycles, and reduce waste by implementing strategies to meet production goals. Timer boards help prevent issues with dedicated dust monitoring, early warning leak detection, better control, and real-time diagnostics to improve plant operations and return on investment.

From basic continuous timer boards to technically advanced sequential timer boards, which incorporate pressure switch controls and automatic blow downs, Albarrie saves you time, money, and resources by preventing downtime and plant production losses.

A vital tool for your baghouse, pressure gauges measures air velocity, fan and blower pressures, filter resistance, and differential pressures. A gauge measures the air pressure difference between the bag’s dirty side and the clean air plenum. Measuring differential pressure tells you a lot about your baghouse. For example, when a sudden drop occurs, it can mean there’s a leak somewhere in the baghouse. An increase can indicate that the cleaning system isn’t working. Albarrie offers two types of pressure gauges, Magnehelic and Photohelic.

Magnehelic pressure gauges are simple, low-cost gauges connected to the diaphragm and respond to pressure changes between the two sides of the diaphragm giving the reading. Magnehelic gauges don’t connect to timer boards and require someone to monitor them continuously.

Photohelic pressure gauges function like the magnehelic but are enhanced with a pressure switch to allow control over low and high pressures. This gauge automatically triggers the cleaning system based on present pressure controls.

Solenoid and diaphragm valves are used together to control the cleaning system in pulse-jet baghouse systems. There are two fundamental issues with these valves – opening or closing. These parts work hard to maintain the cleaning system, and their housing is susceptible to cracking, although there can be a host of other issues that cause the valves not to operate.

The timer board controls the valves by sending an electrical signal to the solenoid valves. Solenoid valves regulate the flow between ports that control cleaning cycles and activate the diaphragm valves to release air into the filter bags for cleaning. Once signaled by the solenoid, the diaphragm valve works by applying air pressure through a pilot valve into the actuator, which raises the diaphragm and opens the valve to clean the baghouse filter bags.

Albarrie offers baghouse replacement solenoid and diaphragm valves and repair kits to keep your operations running.

Albarrie can supply replacement caps for reverse air baghouse maintenance. We offer various sizes and types. Depending on your needs, we also provide all types and styles of clamps or hooks if you need to install filter bags for your baghouse.

Ensure you get the right filter bag for your baghouse. Albarrie custom manufactures baghouse filter bags to fit any baghouse system, including pulse jet, reverse air, shaker, and cartridge systems.
