| Abstract: | The purpose of this paper is to describe a simple gravimetric test method that was used as a field tool to diagnose variations and malfunctions in dust collector performance. This method is not considered a replacement for accepted standard test methods for stacks.1,2,3 Nevertheless, the reproducibility, ease, and value of this short term monitor test method over a two year period, covering over 1000 tests suggest that this method may be used effectively in the field. The article published below is a condensed version of a paper (67-117) presented at 1967 Annual Meeting. |
