Dear Mohan,

Not knowing the material (just the particle size) a rule of thumb is:

Filter area in m2 = 2 times the air flow in m3/min = 2*10 = 20 m2

This means a filter load of 10/20=0.5 m/min

The next parameter to check is the upward can velocity between the filter elements.

This can velocity must be approx. 0.75 times the suspension velocity of the particle.

The filter assembly must be pulse cleaned.

Now consult your filter equipment supplier.

Have a nice day
