Cartridge dust collectors have evolved into multiple installation types – vertical, horizontal, and inclined – depending on installation space, process requirements, and ease of maintenance. Here we provide a systematic overview of the main installation methods of cartridge dust collectors, along with their respective features and suitable applications, helping users choose the right installation structure based on their operating conditions to improve dust collection efficiency and ensure stable equipment performance.

Dust collector cartridge filter in vertical arrangements can be further divided into two installation types: top-loading and bottom-loading. In the top-loading type, the cartridge filter is inserted downward into the tube sheet hole from above and then secured onto the mounting plate. In the bottom-loading type, the cartridge filter is installed upward from beneath the mounting plate and then fixed in place.
Features
Applications
Welding fume, sandblasting dust, powder conveying, steel, building materials, etc.

In a horizontally installed cartridge dust collector, the dust collector cartridge filters are installed parallel to the ground. They are inserted horizontally or slid laterally into the cartridge dust collector and secured with screws, flanges, or similar fasteners.
Features
Applications
Ideal for settings with limited space and high maintenance accessibility requirements, such as laser cutting workshops and precision machining facilities.

In inclined installation cartridge dust collectors, dust collector cartridge filters are typically installed at a set angle (e.g., 30° – 60° ) within the inside the unit and secured with bolts, flanges, or similar fasteners.
Features
Applications
Suitable for medium-sized spaces, and equipment rooms or workshops where maintenance frequency can be reasonably controlled.
