PURPOSE
Filter particulate material from an airstream, maintain volume and static pressure, and return material to production.

APPLICATION
Filtration of fibrous material from production processes for soft disposable products, textiles, plastics, fiberglass, and tissue products.

OPERATION
The primary structure of the Osprey drum filter system is a rotating perforated drum inside an enclosure. A main system balancing fan pulls air and particulate into the enclosure. The clean air passes through the filter media covering the drum. Dust and particulate matter remain on the media, and are removed by an arrangement of suction nozzles as the drum rotates against them. The clean, filtered air passing through the drum is discharged to the atmosphere.
