PURGING CONTROLLERS
DeGATECH supplies timer boards that monitor and control your pulse jet dust collector cleaning cycles. The right dust collector timer board option for you can vary depending on your plant’s unique requirements. Timer board options can vary from AC and DC panels, multiple channels, economical no-frills timers, to advanced automated features.
Timer boards typically include three operating modes; a continuous cycle, an on-demand cleaning mode & DELTA P control based cleaning. Continuous cleaning occurs when the timer board is always pulsing to clean your filters while the dust collector is in operation. If you have an extremely demanding application, this may be the right option for you.
If you don’t have an extremely demanding application, on-demand cleaning may be a better solution. With on demand cleaning, the control panel is set by the operator to clean the bags only when the differential pressure reaches a high range, then the system will pulse down to a lower range. This allows for longer filter life, reduced energy consumption, reduced labour costs, and improved air flow and pickup velocities.
