New Gas Turbine Filter House
Camfil Farr has introduced a cost-saving "Gold Cone?" filter house that provides
superior intake protection for gas turbines, combined with greater reliability,
more efficient performance and reduced maintenance. The high-efficiency design
helps to prevent fouling of turbine blades, resulting in fewer water washes,
greater power output and less overall downtime.
The filtration system features a patented inner Gold Cone that adds 50 percent
more media area to each cartridge. As a result, the filter house meets airflow
requirements with a much smaller filter housing, thus delivering premium performance
at a competitive price while taking up less space. The design of the inner cone
results in enhanced airflow through the filter house, for improved cleaning
action and lower pressure drop.
Cartridges are vertically-mounted to shed dust readily, eliminating uneven
dust loading and inefficient cleaning. Cleaning is accomplished by pulse waves
that emanate outward from the inner cone in the center of the cartridge. Test
results indicate that this pulse-cleaning method provides enhanced cleaning
for more efficient operation, longer cartridge life and reduced service requirements.
A patented cambar system, guaranteed by the manufacturer to be the fastest changeout
system in the industry, allows trouble-free cartridge replacement with no tools
required.
The Gold Cone filter cartridge uses an advanced, silicone-impregnated polyester/cellulose
media with excellent filtration efficiency and high humidity resistance. For
the most stringent applications, users may opt for an extra high-efficiency
media that is 99.99 percent efficient on 1.0 micron and larger particles. Numerous
gas conditioning equipment options such as inlet air cooling systems are also
available. Camfil Farr will custom-engineer the filter house to meet individual
site conditions.
