In the world of industrial vacuum cleaners, filter cleaning is a key element to ensure continuous operation and high efficiency. iVision Vacuum has developed an innovative filter efficiency sensor that automatically adjusts the number of cleaning cycles based on the level of clogging. This advanced system significantly improves vacuum performance and allows the vacuum to maintain consistent effectiveness and suction capacity over time. The innovation applies to all vacuum cleaners with a pulse cleaning system. Before delving deeper, let’s take a detailed look at what is meant by pulse cleaning.

How does pulse cleaning work?

Pulse cleaning uses reverse compressed air blasts (from the inside to the outside of the filter) to remove dust and debris accumulated on the surface of the cartridge filter. However, the optimal number of blasts varies depending on the level of clogging and the material being vacuumed. A heavily clogged cartridge requires more blasts for cleaning, but too many blasts can stress the filter and damage its filtering capacity. This is where the clogging sensor comes into play.

Integrated into suction systems with automatic cleaning and 4.0 interconnection, this sensor can be activated via specific software wiring. The sensor automatically calculates the number of compressed air blasts required to clean the filter based on the detected level of clogging, eliminating the need for extraordinary manual intervention and maintenance.

Automated intelligence for excellent cleaning

The sensor monitors the condition of the filter in real time and adjusts the number of blasts needed. If the filter is only lightly clogged, a single blast is sufficient. For moderate clogging, the system automatically adjusts to three or four blasts. For severe clogging, the sensor triggers multiple blasts for a thorough cleaning. This mechanism optimizes the process, preventing filter overload and ensuring optimal performance over time.

The advantages of the automatic cleaning system with integrated sensor

  • Customized and efficient cleaning

The sensor automatically adjusts the number of blasts based on the filter’s condition, ensuring effective cleaning while preventing damage to the filter, the vacuum cleaner, and consequently the production line.

  • Filter protection

By preventing excessive air blasts, the sensor helps prolong the filter’s life and avoids the risk of damaging its filtering capacity, thus ensuring a working environment with optimal air quality.

  • Full automation

Manual maintenance is minimized, improving operational efficiency and ensuring uninterrupted production continuity.
