ACT Dust Collectors
CAUTION!
Accidents happen, be careful and always follow all local and federal regulations!
Fires and explosions do occur in dust collectors. Many items in a dust form can become very flammable and/or
explosive. It is very important that when installing a dust collector to check with and abide by all local and federal
regulations. Precautions such as spark traps, detectors, and extinguishers are always recommended when sparks or
explosive danger is present. Never throw any burning objects into the duct work or dust collector. There is no way to
guarantee 100% prevention of fires. However, the methods mentioned above will greatly reduce your risk. ACT
Dust Collectors will not be responsible in any way for any loss or damage associated with fires or explosions in your
dust collector.
If your dust collector came with explosion vents or if explosive dusts are present, it is the owner’s/operator’s
responsibility for full compliance with all authorities having jurisdiction. It is recommended that the NFPA codes be
studied and applied, including, but not limited to 68, 69 and 654. Included in the NFPA standards is the issue of
isolating your dust collector. Please contact us or an expert in the area regarding isolation of your dust collector in
the event of an explosion. Unless a Kst test was performed, and we were provided with the results, the size of the
explosion vents may be inaccurate and you may not be in compliance. It is the owner/operators responsibility to
verify the Kst and Pmax values. We recommend that your process be evaluated regularly to make sure that you
remain in compliance and the vent area is sufficient. ACT Dust Collectors will not be responsible for ANY loss
whatsoever resulting from an explosion associated with an ACT dust collector.
Dust collectors are tall and top heavy. Always be careful when handling them. Make sure your equipment is capable
of making the lifts and moves you are trying to make. Be sure the foundation for the dust collector is proper and
secure.
All plumbing and electrical should be performed by certified professionals and meet all codes and regulations.
Never open any doors or access panels while the machine is in operation.
Always shut down the unit prior to service and lock out all disconnects.
Always wear proper safety equipment when working on or around your dust collector and follow all local and federal
codes.

TLM Baghouse
Operation Principle
The TLM baghouse is a pulse-jet, fabric filter, air cleaning device that removes the particulates from dust-laden air
and allows clean air to be exhausted. As air enters through the hopper inlet, the particulates experience a reduction
of velocity, which causes the heavier particulates to fall down into the hopper. The remaining dust is directed
upward towards the filter bags where the dust is collected on the filters, allowing clean air to be exhausted. As the
dust accumulates on the filters and forms a dust cake, the efficiency of the filter bags increases.
To remove excess dust buildup, a timer board is used to sequentially open the solenoid and diaphragm valves that
release a pulse of compressed air through the blowpipes and downward into the filter bags. This pressure pulse
releases the excess dust on the filters, allowing it to drop down into the hopper.

Shipping and Receiving
All products from ACT Dust Collectors are carefully inspected for quality and order completion prior to shipment.
Prior to unloading, inspect all components for any shipping damage and missing parts. Report and file a claim
immediately with the carrier for any damage or missing items. Once filed, contact your ACT Dust Collectors
representative to notify them of your issue(s).
Any repairs to components with minor damage from transit must be approved in writing by the manufacturer.
Handling
Handling should be performed by trained, able, and qualified personnel and be consistent with safe handling
practices outlined by OSHA and local codes.
Review this manual and any additionally supplied certified drawing(s) to familiarize yourself with the lift points of
each of the components.
Verify the integrity and lift capacity of all handling equipment/components.
When handling the housing, it is recommended to utilize spreader bars to prevent any deformation during lifting.
All lifting points are to be used.

Assembly
Hopper and Legs
1. Lift the hopper using a crane along its four lift points.
2. Locate and fasten the legs along the corners of the
hopper with the supplied hardware. Hand tighten the
hardware while keeping the hopper supported with
the crane.
3. Locate and fasten the leg bracings to the legs. Hand
tighten the hardware.
5. Fasten the middle of the leg bracings that cross one
another.
6. Install 3/4 inch diameter anchor bolts with a minimum
1 3/4 inch extension above the foundation.
7. Once the hopper and legs have been assembled and
anchored, tighten all of the fasteners to the
recommended SAE torque per Table 1.
Filter Housing - Middle Section
1. Apply the supplied gasket sealing tape to the hopper
flange on to the inner side of the bolt pattern.
2. Lift the filter housing middle section with a crane

bars to prevent any deformation).
3. Fasten the housing to the hopper. Hand tightening
only.
4. Once all fasteners are installed and the middle
section is properly aligned, tighten all fasteners.
