The LTG TFB drum filter is used for fine filtration of dust in larger air volumes. The unit consisting of drum filter TFB and pre-filter TVM is referred to as TFC and filters coarser particles such as fibers from the primary air flow in addition to dust. In contrast to the LTG Compact Drum Filter, the TFB drum filter consists of just one large filter drum, the length of which can be varied on a modular basis. The air flows through this fixed filter drum from the inside to the outside and is continuously extracted by suction nozzles that touch the drum. To extract the entire filter surface, the nozzles perform a rotational and a superimposed translational movement. The separated and extracted dust is then fed to a separator by a conveying fan in the secondary circuit. All functional components and drive parts are located in the housing on the clean gas side, which benefits reliability and functional safety.
The automatic, internally pressurized drum filter TFB / TFC meets the essential practical requirements in an extremely high air volume range of 20,000 to 270,000 m³/h:
• High filtration performance
• High air permeability
• Precise adaptation to the application, e.g. through modular design
• Low-maintenance operation
LTG drum filters have been proving their worth for years as low-maintenance fine filter units in a wide range of industrial sectors. A long tradition and robust design guarantee maximum reliability, safety and availability. They offer the following advantages:
• Lower moving masses compared to systems with rotating drum
