Buschjost Dust filter systems are an important part of many manufacturing environments where particulate contaminants are a by-product of the manufacturing processes. They collect unwanted dust that is potentially harmful to workers, equipment or the environment. Dust filters lose effectiveness as they collect more dust and Dust filter valves (sometimes referred to as Pulse valves) are needed to clean these filters and keep them working as intended.
Our Dust filter valves have been proven in highly aggressive environments. A great example of this is the integration of our valves into top hammer drill rigs. These rigs can only operate reliably if the large quantities of dust generated during drilling are removed from the drill’s path as this prevents jamming. The dust contains contaminants which could pose a significant health and safety hazard and must carefully be collected for safe disposal.
This challenge was overcome by integrating compressors and patented jet pulse dust collectors directly onto the drill rigs. The dust-laden air flows into filter bags where it collects or cakes on the outside. The caked dust is then shaken into the collector by timed blasts of compressed air from a dust filter valve, ready for safe disposal.

How It Works
- Our IMI Buschjost range of Dust filter valves enable the air-blasting method of dust filter cleaning. A short, intense pulse of air is blasted into the soiled filter element causing dust and loose dirt from the filter element to fall toward the ground where it can be collected for safe removal. Following the short cleaning cycle, the system can operate at full capacity again.
- To achieve optimum cleaning with minimum air consumption, the pressure in the filter must reach the its set point very quickly. This means that the valves must open fully within a few milliseconds and the air pulse must return to zero as quickly as possible. The IMI Buschjost Dust filter valve achieves this by using a unique one-piece diaphragm rather than a traditional spring, and functions reliably at the very high speeds necessary to operate.
