Dust Collection System in a Dry Mix Mortar Plant
A dust collector machine is specialized equipment that separates dust from air, and it is an essential component for improving the on-site working environment of a dry mix mortar plant. A dust collector is required when pneumatically conveying powder into silos, as well as when mixing materials and powders enter the mixer. The most commonly used dust collector machine options in dry mix mortar plants include cyclone dust collectors and baghouse dust collectors.
Cyclone Dust Collector
The cyclone dust collection system that uses particle centrifugal force to separate dust from gas. It is often used as a primary dust collector machine for powder silos and drying sections in a dry mix mortar plant. It consists of an outer cylinder with a conical bottom, air inlet pipe, exhaust pipe, ash discharge pipe, and ash storage box. This dust collector has a simple structure, reliable performance, low cost, and easy maintenance, but its dust collection efficiency typically reaches only 90%, so it serves as a primary component in the dust collection system.

Baghouse Dust Collector
The baghouse dust collection system that uses natural or inorganic fiber filter cloth to filter dust from gas. Since the filter cloth is formed into bag shapes, it is commonly called a baghouse dust collector. It is ideal for mixed dust sources in a dry mix mortar plant. While highly effective initially, dust accumulation on bag walls over time reduces performance—so regular cleaning is necessary. The most widely used self-cleaning baghouse dust collector machine types in dry mix mortar plants are mechanical vibration and negative pressure cylindrical models.

a) Vibrating Baghouse Dust Collector
This dust collection system mainly consists of a vibration ash cleaning device (installed at the top, using a rocker, vibration rod, and frame to shake filter bags for ash removal), filter bags, filter chamber, dust hopper, air inlet/outlet pipes, and screw conveyor. It has a simple structure, few failures, and easy maintenance, making it a standardized dust collector machine in dry mix mortar plants.
b) Negative Pressure Cylindrical Baghouse Dust Collector
This dust collector machine consists of a dust collection fan, filter element, controller, discharge port butterfly valve, and shell. Its air inlet connects to the mixer or other dust sources in a dry mix mortar plant. Under system control, it operates intermittently or continuously, collecting dust on the filter element's outer wall, then using high-pressure air back-blowing to remove dust into a recovery chamber. This dust collection system has a simple structure, high dust collection efficiency, and low energy consumption.
