High-velocity vacuum fan draws airborne dust away from the operator through two cartridge filters. Reverse pulse jets automatically return accumulated dust on filter surfaces to the hopper.

Flexible Screw Conveyors (shown), Tubular Cable Conveyors and Pneumatic Conveying Systems can transport discharged material to any downstream process equipment, packaging line or storage vessel.
Bag infeed chute through the sidewall of the glove box hood allows operator to push empty bags into the bag compactor, causing dust generated from both dumping and compaction to be drawn onto the system's dust collector.
Bags are staged on a stainless steel tabletop and then transferred through a plastic strip curtain into the glove box enclosure.
Large pneumatic air cylinder of compactor compresses bags into a removable bin with 50- to 80-bag capacity.
Glove box enclosure is maintained under negative pressure, preventing the escape of dust through the plastic strip curtain, while containing dust generated during bag opening and dumping activities.

The system reduces material waste and eliminates the need to clean a remote dust collection site, while protecting workers and preventing plant contamination.
All units feature a high-velocity vacuum fan that draws airborne dust away from the operator through two cartridge filters that are sized according to the application.
To operate a bag dump station, the hopper lid is opened, the vacuum fan is activated, and material is dumped through the hopper screen. Airborne dust in the vicinity of the hopper opening is drawn into the dust collector, protecting workers, preventing plant contamination, and reducing material waste.
An automatic reverse-pulse filter cleaning system employs timer-activated solenoid valves to release short blasts of compressed plant air inside the cartridge filters, causing dust build-up on the outer filter surfaces to fall into the hopper. Because the filters are blasted alternately at timed intervals, operation of the dust collection system is both continuous and efficient.
All units are available in carbon steel with durable industrial finishes, or in stainless steel in industrial or sanitary finishes.
This mobile Flexicon bag dump station incorporates a hinged operator platform, Flexicon flexible screw conveyor, integral bag compactor, and explosion-proof electrical system.
Two cartridge filters are accessed easily by removing the interior baffle, and replaced rapidly without tools using quick-disconnect fittings.
