GORE LOW DRAG Filter Bags incorporate an entirely new class of membranes that acts as a true surface filter in fume and fine powder applications. The membrane provides excellent particulate capture efficiency, dust cake release and filtration performance. It can be operated at a lower differential pressure (dP), resulting in fan energy savings, longer bag life and improved process control.

Coal-fired power provider Eins Energie, based in Chemnitz (Germany), has been supplying around 400,000 household and commercial customers in Chemnitz and the surrounding area with electricity and district heating since 1961. This case study illustrates how Gore helped Eins Energie to reduce mercury emissions to consistently below the applicable limit of 7 μg/m³.

A producer of cement in Mexico was looking to consistently meet maximum kiln feed. The plant selected GORE^® LOW DRAG Filter Bags to replace its existing membrane filters. The bags’ new membrane promotes increased airflow through the baghouse with persistently low differential pressure.

Cement producers need filtration solutions that meet both their productivity goals and their bottom line. When a cement plan in Canada looked for ways to improve operations in its pulse-jet baghouse, they found a simple solution that didn’t require adding more modules to the baghouse.

Learn how GORE Packaging Vents ensure the integrity of both product and package from manufacturing line to end user being awarded the INDIANSTAR Award for Packaging Excellence.

Pelican engineers knew that they needed to account for pressure differentials. The 0450 Mobile Tool Chest would be transported around the world and often dropped from an airplane. Rapid altitude changes can cause pressure on the seals to increase from about 2 psi (140 mbar) to almost 16 psi (1,105 mbar) in the short period it takes to reach the ground.

Infinity Surfboards Company, located in Dana Point, California, designs a wide range of surfboards for a variety of surfer interests. The heat from the sun caused the air inside their surfboards to expand and the resulting pressure build-up caused delamination of the epoxy skin to occur.

Gore’s application engineers collaborated with the Dunkermotoren engineers to evaluate several GORE® Protective Vents in both environmental chamber tests and field tests.

Fingu, a well-respected manufacturer known for its radio frequency (RF) systems, needed quickly to identify the cause of water ingress in their RF subsystems. Their subsystems were mounted on top of telecom towers in a location subject to fierce typhoons. These heavy rains and high-force winds caused water to enter the housing and compromise the subsystem’s integrity and performance.
