Moisture Problem Prevention

The use of BHA-TEX membrane PTFE membrane should be considered when one or more of the following conditions exist:
  • Submicron or sticky dust is present
  • High humidity
  • Frequent startup/shutdown
  • The process has been altered from its original design configuration
  • Operating conditions are not compatible with those specified during baghouse construction
  • Production requirements have been modified
  • Upset conditions occur in the process resulting in excessive maintenance cost

Moisture in the gas steam mixes with dust and sticks. This agglomeration is a dense, non-permeable moist dustcake that increases differential pressure and reduces airflow, resulting in decreased production.


Dust never has a chance to stick to filters laminated with BHA-TEX membrane. The slick ePTFE membrane surface provides proper filter cleandown. The resulting increased airflow benefits production and reduces time spent cleaning and replacing filters.
