The filtering surface (SF) given in m2 is estimated using the following expression:

SF m 2 0.26 F c0.18 350 0.5

Where: F = gas flow at 25 C given in m3/min c = concentration of dust given in g/m3 = average diameter of the particle, in m For example, con F=700 m3/min , c = 40 g/m3, = 50 m :

SF m 2 0.26 700 (40) 0.18 350 (50) 0.5 403m 2

Volume occupied by the filter (m ) Consumption of compressed air (Nm3/h) Surface occupied by the filter (m )
2 3

= 0.33 SF; 133 m3 for the example = 0.215 SF; 87 Nm3/h for the example = 0.047 SF; 19 m2 for the example

In case the values of c and are unkown, an appropriate expression is:

SF m 2 0.014 Q,

Q must be given in Nm 3 / h
