INDUSTRIES: Dust Collection


Industrial Dust Collection Valves for Filtration Systems

As part of an optimized air quality program, efficient dust filtration collection systems protect workers from dangerous byproducts of manufacturing, all the while saving money by decreasing downtime and minimizing energy consumption.

In order to maximize safety and realize cost-savings, high-performance dust collection systems must be reliable and able to capture, convey, and collect particulate matter while keeping up with the demanding pace of industrial and commercial scale production facilities.

MAC Pulse Valves were developed to replace current diaphragmatic style technology and create a more robust and reliable valve solution in industrial applications such as reverse jet bag houses and dust collectors, pneumatic conveying, and bulk material handling.

MAC’s Pulse Valves rely on balanced pilot technology to ensure fast, repeatable pulses. Bonded spool technology, utilized in the main valve, gives superior reliability beyond existing diaphragmatic technology. Flexible and responsive, the MAC Pulse Valve’s checked accumulator and main spool with memory spring helps ensure a shift back to the home position when the air supply may not be adequate. With a 4-way pilot and high-flow manifold body, MAC Pulse Valves are the leading choice for dust collection systems.

Benefits of the MAC Pulse Valve include:

  • Longer and more reliable valve life
  • Energy savings due to decreased air intake
  • Easy to operate and maintain
  • Improved pulse efficiency
  • High impact force for easier and better cleaning, less pulsing, improved bag life and filter life, and air savings
  • Whip action for better cleaning, short pulse duration, and air savings
  • Reliability due to Pulse Valve features, including 4-way balanced pilot, bonded spool, and no diaphragm
