IAC Team Completes 16,800 Pleated Filter Bag Change-out Early

Written by IAC | Sep 14, 2020 5:45:46 PM

Recently, IAC’s Nationwide Blue Crew Field Service Team was contracted to complete a filter bag change-out at a Power Generation Station in Nebraska. The job consisted of  removing and replacing 16,800 pleated filter elements, changing 1 compartment at a time, while the baghouse was on-line and running, within an 8 week timeframe. The IAC Crew successfully completed the job 2 weeks early – right at the 6-week mark.

Amid the challenge of complying with extra safety precautions due to COVID-19 restrictions, the crew completed the pleated filter elements change-out in an impressive time frame, and did an exceptional job handling the maintenance on the baghouse.

Following the pleated filter element change-out, the customer sent an e-mail to our Blue Crew Field Service Manager, stating:

“I’d like to put in a good word for the crew that was here to work on our baghouse pleated filter change out project.  They did a great job.  Several of our craft people who worked with them commented that they were impressed with their work.  Plant Management was pleased with the time frame in which we got the job done, all while on-line and dealing with the extra Covid-19 issues. I would have no problem recommending your crew to anyone else”
