Overview
Shaker dust collectors are industrial baghouse units that remove dust from air using fabric filter bags cleaned by a mechanical shaking action. They handle moderate to heavy, coarse dust loads and are well suited to yards, quarries, and construction sites where crawler loaders and mobile equipment generate intermittent dust. Shaker systems are simple, robust, and economical for retrofits or applications that don’t require continuous pulse-jet cleaning.
FAQ
How do I pick the right size for my crawler-loader operations?
Match collector capacity to peak airflow (CFM/m³/h) and dust loading from your loader tasks. Check inlet velocity, static pressure, hopper capacity and leave reserve capacity for spikes. Confirm physical footprint, power needs and bag type before buying.
What should I expect when shipping a shaker dust collector?
Large units are crated and often partially disassembled. Plan for forklift or crane handling, note weight and lift points, verify transport permits and packaging for long hauls, and inspect for damage on arrival.
What regular maintenance keeps a shaker collector reliable?
Monitor differential pressure, inspect and replace worn or torn filter bags, check the shaker mechanism, bearings and drive, clear hopper and discharge valves, and follow a schedule based on operating hours and dust type.
