Abstract
The invention provides a dust collector for use in air pollution control which includes at least one hollow filter assembly disposed in a hopper and having an open upper end registering with a wall opening. The filter apparatus also includes a nozzle spaced above the filter assembly for selectively directing a reverse pulse of air into the open upper end of the filter such that the reverse air pulse enters the filter assembly and flows through the filter medium in the reverse of the direction of contaminated airflow to thereby remove accumulated contaminants from the filter medium. The dust collector further includes a sleeve positioned inside the hollow filter assembly with the outer surface of the sleeve adjacent the filter medium, the upper end of the sleeve registering with the wall opening and the lower end of the sleeve opening into the filter assembly.
