Baghouse Tubesheets/Cellplates, Thimbles and Access Doors
GE Energy offers tubesheets, thimbles and access doors for baghouses. Tubesheets can be fabricated to close tolerances, which provide an effective bag seal to reduce potential leakage.
Thimbles are exposed to harsh baghouse elements and can become corroded, resulting in leaks. GE manufactures thimbles from 12 to 18 gauge carbon or stainless steel to reduce corrosion in chemically active units. GE also offers the Center Pivot Access Door and the Insulated Single and Double Access Doors.
