A.C.T. Dust Collectors TLM Modular Baghouses are designed to meet the unique requirements of each application. Custom designed and built systems are common, and our engineering team can help find the dust collection system that's right for you.
Heavy-duty internally reinforced 10-gauge walls and robust structure meet industry demands. Utilizing computerized simulation software, the pulse-jet cleaning system operational design has been optimized for efficient cleaning and airflow. Hinged filter access doors and our exclusive tool-free bag replacement, allow for the quickest, easiest maintenance.
The TLM Baghouse operation is simple, proven and efficient. Dust-laden air is drawn from the source through a duct system and into the hopper inlet. Through air expansion and an internal deflection plate, the airstream velocity is reduced so large particles drop into the hopper below. The remaining dust particles are filtered through the bag filters. This ensures that only clean air passes into the top of the unit, through the fan, and is either exhausted to the atmosphere or returned to the building.
The TLM Baghouse brings you the culmination of many years of experience with quality and features unrivaled in the industry.
The ACT TLM 315-05 Modular Baghouse is designed to meet the unique requirements of many applications including woodworking, sanding, finishing, food processing, pharmaceutical and other industrial environments.
Often baghouses are larger systems that can process a lot of dirty air in a short amount of time. With our TLM 315-05 Baghouse Dust Collector we have kept that same principle but shortened the size of dust collector and the filter bag. This allows us to offer a smaller unit with a smaller amount of media which is ideal for various low volume applications.
The 5 foot bags and cages in this system with the tool-free top access doors is the perfect combination. If there are height restrictions in your area or if you prefer the shorter design that is no problem - we can make almost any size due to its modular design.
When this dust collection system was designed, maintenance was top of mind. Our baghouse dust collectors are easy to maintain because of the following standard features:
Automatic Venturi-Assisted Pulse Filter Cleaning System
ACTion-Lock Exclusive Tool-Free Bag Replacement
Modular Design
OSHA Compliant Hand Rail and Caged Access Ladder
This ACT TLM 315-05 dust collection system holds (315) 5ft long filter bags. The TLM Baghouse features downtime cleaning as well, so the system performs a final pulse-clean cycle after shutdown to ensure maximum dust release and long filter life.
Dirty air from the dust source enters the A.C.T. dust collector at the top of the main housing. There are inlets on the roof and optional inlets on the front for the most efficient connection. As air enters the dust collector, dust accumulates on the outside of the filters as air is drawn through the high-efficiency media. The air flowing down through the system greatly assists the fallout of dust into the hopper where it is discharged. When the pulse clean system activates and accumulated dust is released from the cartridges, the air flowing downward through the collector assists dust fallout again. This avoids dust from getting re-entrained and accumulating on the filter again. Systems with vertical filters — with air entering from the side or below — struggle to avoid dust getting picked back up in the airstream or “re-entrained.”
Your A.C.T. dust collector comes standard with industry-best A.C.T Nano-Elite media. These feature a MERV 15 efficiency rating for effective collection of extremely fine dust, smoke and fume, removing 99.9% of particulate from the air. The cleaned air is then directed to the location of your choice: either returned to your facility or exhausted to the environment.
The patented door design of A.C.T. dust collectors is simple, fast and secure. The cast aluminum handle locks the door shut against the dust collector. The heavy-duty cross-rod and brackets on the dust collector and cam are all stainless steel. Knobs, hinges, springs, threads and wasted time are eliminated. Lift the handle and door comes off. Set the cross-rod in the brackets, lower the handle and it’s locked securely. Click Here to watch the video.
Inside the A.C.T. dust collector, the design continues to work. Two rails support the cartridge filters from the front to the back of the housing, eliminating the need for interior yoke support frame cantilevered from the collector tube sheet. The pulse clean system is unobstructed inside the filter for maximum effectiveness.
The most popular feature of the TLM Baghouse series is our Action-Lock Tool-Free Bag Replacement. Top load filter change outs made easy with a hinged filter access door.

The main housing of your A.C.T. dust collector is 7 and 10 gauge, all-welded steel. Systems with bolted panel construction can leak over time, so the housing of the A.C.T dust collector is fabricated with continuous, welded seams. Behind every row of two filters is a venturi for maximum performance on the pulse cleaning.
With hundreds of A.C.T. dust collectors manufactured and installed, every serial number is a statement of quality. Lifting lugs are engineered to the correct lifting angle and formed doors for maximum rigidity, coupled with deep one-piece gaskets, maintain the seal. Angle iron support structure and base plates are pre-punched for easy installation. A fastener kit is included with Grade 5, zinc-plated fasteners. A premium blast, prime and paint process ensures the system will remain in excellent cosmetic condition for many years.
At A.C.T. Dust Collectors, we do more than sell dust collectors. We want to be your number one resource for all your dust collection needs. From our helpful glossary of terms to our on-demand webinars and videos – you can find it all right here. Manuals and brochures for all of our models of dust collectors are also accessible in downloadable formats.
With millions of CFM going through operating A.C.T. Dust Collectors every day worldwide, we have the solution to every application. Custom designed and built systems are common, and our engineering team can help find the dust collection system that's right for you.
