Pleated Bag Cartridge Filters from APC AirProControl are engineered to upgrade baghouse dust collectors with higher filtration area, lower pressure drop, and longer service life. They combine the compact installation format of filter bags with pleated media technology—ideal for retrofits and new installations.
High Surface Area, Low Pressure Drop for Baghouse Retrofits
If you want better dust capture without increasing collector size, pleated bag cartridges are a practical solution. The pleated construction increases available media area (commonly up to ~3× vs. standard bags), which helps maintain airflow while reducing fan energy demand in many systems.
Best fit for:
- Baghouse upgrades (drop-in replacements)
- Plants targeting energy savings and longer change-out intervals
- Dust collectors running at higher air-to-cloth ratios
Key Advantages
High filtration surface area
Pleated media provides significantly more area in the same footprint, improving dust capture and stable performance.
Lower pressure drop
More media area generally reduces resistance, supporting better airflow and potentially lowering operating costs.
Direct bag replacement
Designed for baghouse systems using snap-band or flange mount styles—often without major modifications.
Extended filter life
Durable media and deep pleats can reduce cleaning frequency and extend service intervals (site conditions apply).
Customizable configurations
Choose from multiple diameters, lengths, end connections, and media types to match your dust and process needs.
