Bag and Cage Installation
Installation of Bag and Cage Assembly – Bottom Loader
Inspect the filter bag cages for any signs of damage, warping, bent wires
or missing welds. Inspect the filter bags for any signs of mold, mildew,
ripped seams or holes.
Be sure the wire cage has a bottom pan. Slip the filter bag over the cage,
centering the seam 1-½” or 2” on either side of the split at the top of the
cage roll band. Seam must be straight (not corkscrewed). Make sure that
the filter bag bottom is tight against the cage bottom pan.
Pull the bag up and over the full length of the cage and fold the entire
extra length over and down inside the top of the cage. Smooth out any
filter bag folds inside the top of the cage.
Slip the assembled filter bag and cage over the outside of the bag cup
(mounted on the tube sheet) making sure to mate the male groove of the
cage roll band top to the female groove of the bag cup.
If you try to move the assembly up and down you will be able to tell if the
grooves are properly aligned.
Install the worm gear bag clamp on the assembly and tighten around the
bag and cage at the point just above the groove on the cage. The clamp
head should be located in the best position for ease in tightening.
Tighten the clamp until secure. You should not be able to rotate the bag-
cage assembly by hand if it is tighten properly.
Close the access door and tighten accordingly. You are ready to begin
start-up procedures if all other preceding tasks and connections are
completed.
It is recommended to double check the tightness of the bag and cage
assembly approximately one month after the initial start-up.
