Automatic Filter Cleaning Control System

An automatic filter cleaning control system is created with the combination of the Series A3000 Photohelic® switch/gage and a Series DCT500A Dust Collector Timer Controller. The Photohelic® gage monitors the filters for dust build-up. When the dust build-up and pressure drop across the filters exceeds a preset limit, the Photohelic® gage activates the DCT500A’s cleaning cycle. The DCT500A controls the cleaning process until the dust levels and corresponding pressure drop on the filters falls back below the preset limit. Static pressure tips and line filters are recommended to prevent migration of particulate into the Photohelic® gage.
