Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
When to Replace Cart-PTFE 10?
The Cart-PTFE 10 filter replacement is monitored automatically by the MultiDustBank system, which measures pressure across the filter. When the pressure difference indicates the filter is no longer effective, an alarm will signal that it needs to be replaced. For proactive maintenance, the ControlPro Connect IIoT platform can be used to monitor filter performance remotely and plan for timely replacement.
What is the expected Lifespan of the Cart-PTFE 10?
The Cart-PTFE 10 filter has a long lifespan due to its durable design. It is made from bi-component polyester fibers for strength and a PTFE membrane for excellent cleaning. The filter can be cleaned frequently using a compressed air back-pulsing system, which prevents wear and tear. Dry, non-sticky dust, such as dry welding fumes, can allow for a lifespan of over 8,000 hours of operation.
Other Applications:
Can de Cart-PTFE-10 be used for other applications?
Yes, the Cart-PTFE 10 can be used for more than just welding, grinding, and cutting. When used with the MultiDustBank system, it is suitable for most non-explosive oil free airborne dust applications that fall under dust classes L and M.
