Dust Control & Filters
Bin Vent Dust Collectors
The bin vent dust collector is an essential component for managing air quality and controlling dust in facilities that handle dry bulk materials. Designed to filter dust particles that naturally form at the top of storage bins or silos, this system uses advanced filtration technology to capture and remove dust from the air. Bin vent filters, including pleated filters and cartridge filters, are integral to this process, providing high filtration efficiency and ensuring that only clean air is released back into the environment. These dust collectors are particularly effective in applications involving bins, hoppers, and pneumatic conveying systems, where dust control is critical for operational efficiency and worker safety. Bin vent dust collectors from Carmeuse Systems are pulse jet style, self-contained units that are mounted on top of dust-generating equipment such as storage silos, bins, small gravity-fed storage hoppers, scaling bins, mixers, screws, or conveyors. These systems are crucial for maintaining clean air and ensuring the safety and efficiency of your operations.
Our top load pleated filter cartridge and filter bag bin vents are designed for easy installation, operation, and maintenance. Bin vent dust collectors and filters from Carmeuse Systems have a low-profile body design that can be easily accessed and maintained by your operator. The pleated filter is a cartridge style design available in a variety of media selections to suit the bulk material characteristics, temperature, and moisture content of your specific application. Accessing the cartridge filter and filter bags in the bin vent dust collectors can be accomplished without the requirement of accessing platforms, ladders, cages, or any special tools.
Carmeuse Systems supports your ongoing maintenance needs with a complete offering of dust collector replacement filters and parts for most manufacturers’ dust collectors. Available in a variety of media options and sizes, our product experts can help you determine the best media for your replacement challenges.

Available Bin Vent Dust Collectors
Square and Rectangular
The square/rectangular bin vent filter from Carmeuse Systems is designed to vent displaced air from storage silos or bins during filling by a pneumatic or mechanical convey system. While venting displaced air, it prevents dust particles and other harmful products from being emitted into the atmosphere or surrounding environment. This bin vent uses four to nine polyester or PTFE laminated spunbonded cartridges to remove dust from the air. The filter media captures dust particulates in the displaced air while discharging cleaned air to the environment. A set of reverse pulse jets activate sequentially to clean material off the filters using compressed air and blow the collected dust particulates back into the storage silo or bin. This bin vent is compact in design, easy to install, eliminates ductwork and reduces your installation expense.
Cylindrical Bin Vent Filter
The cylindrical bin vent filter from Carmeuse Systems is designed to vent displaced air from smaller storage hoppers or scaling bins that are gravity fed by screws, conveyors, or other equipment, where dust particles must be contained or controlled. While venting displaced air, it also prevents dust particles and other harmful products from being emitted into the atmosphere or surrounding environment. The single filter bag media captures the dust particulates in the displaced air while discharging cleaned air to the environment. A reverse pulse jet is activated sequentially to clean material off the filter using compressed air and blow the collected dust particulates back into the storage hoppers or bins. This bin vent is compact in design, easy to install, eliminates ductwork and reduces your installation expense.
