Midwest Filter is proud to offer leak detection powder specifically designed for use in baghouse and cartridge dust collector systems. This specialized fluorescent powder is a vital tool for maintenance teams, plant operators, and environmental compliance personnel. When used in combination with a UV blacklight lamp, the powder provides a fast and effective method for identifying even the smallest leaks or bypasses in your dust collection system.
Leaks in dust collectors can occur due to improperly seated filters, damaged seals, or worn tube sheets, and even small leaks can lead to serious issues, including reduced system performance, increased emissions, and non-compliance with air quality regulations. The leak detection powder makes it easy to visually inspect and detect any breaches by fluorescing under UV light, pinpointing the exact location of leaks in filters, gaskets, housing walls, and tube sheets.
We strongly recommend performing a leak test after every filter bag or cartridge changeout to verify correct installation and ensure system integrity. This simple preventative step can help you avoid costly downtime, maintain regulatory compliance, and prolong the life of your equipment.
Midwest Filter stocks leak detection powder in convenient five-pound pails, ready for immediate shipment from our warehouse. It’s also available for purchase online through our web store.
