Flex-Kleen Dust Collectors
Founded in 1959 Flex-Kleen has over 100,000 dust collectors in service worldwide, many still operating after 40 or more years. The product line covers pulse-jet baghouse collectors, cartridge collectors, bin vents, high-pressure collection, and high-vacuum collection, with systems ranging from 30 CFM to 100,000 CFM.
CECO Environmental Flex-Kleen’s engineering depth covers the most demanding technical challenges in industrial dust collection and applications where standard catalog equipment fails. Corrosive process environments. Sanitary food and pharmaceutical requirements. Combustible dusts requiring NFPA-compliant explosion protection.
Low bulk density materials and high temperature and high vacuum applications. Where other equipment has failed, Flex-Kleen systems are frequently the correct solution. What fits for your Indiana facility? We figure that out for you here at Collectors & Filters.
Flex-Kleen iSeries Cartridge Dust Collector
The iSeries is Flex-Kleen’s current-generation plug-and-play cartridge collector, a heavy-duty construction rated for Kst 400 St-3 combustible dusts with explosion vent panel enclosure built in, NFPA 68 compliant. The horizontal filter layout provides tool-free, ground-level filter access without reaching into vertical housings, a meaningful maintenance safety improvement over conventional cartridge designs.
The iSeries is designed for fast deployment without sacrificing performance or compliance, covering chemicals, metal processing, woodworking, mining, plastics, pharmaceuticals, food and beverage, and electronics applications.
Flex-Kleen Pulse-Jet Baghouse Collectors
For high-volume applications, continuous duty, and process conditions that exceed cartridge collector limits, Flex-Kleen pulse-jet baghouses handle dust loads from small production systems through large-scale industrial operations. Reverse pulse-jet cleaning maintains filter performance without interrupting production.
Filter media options cover standard polyester felt through high-temperature woven fabrics and specialty materials for aggressive chemical environments.
Flex-Kleen Replacement Parts
Flex-Kleen replacement parts are available for all makes and models of filtration equipment, not just Flex-Kleen units. Filters, cages, pleated and cartridge media, diaphragm valves, solenoid valves, timers, gauges, and miscellaneous hardware.
If you have a legacy Flex-Kleen unit, a hard-to-find component for an older system, or need cross-reference parts for equipment from other manufacturers, contact us. We find what other distributors can’t.
Fisher-Klosterman High-Efficiency Cyclone Dust Collectors
Fisher-Klosterman has been designing custom air pollution control and product recovery equipment since 1948. Their XQ Series cyclones are the primary industrial cyclone design in use today developed through extensive research to achieve collection efficiencies high enough to eliminate the need for downstream baghouse filtration in many applications. Fisher-Klosterman’s guaranteed performance is backed by sophisticated modeling when complete operating data is provided, not estimated from generic efficiency curves.
XQ Series High-Efficiency Cyclones
Fisher-Klosterman offers seven models in the XQ Series. All covering efficiency levels from standard industrial separation through ultra-high efficiency for fine particulate and product recovery applications. Units are available from miniature collectors through units large enough to require field assembly.
Dual, quad, and multiple-cyclone arrangements address height restrictions or increase collection efficiency. Common inlet manifolds, outlet manifolds, and hoppers simplify ductwork connections for multi-cyclone installations.
Construction options include carbon steel, stainless steel, and any required alloy. Fisher-Klosterman cyclone designs exceed NFPA explosion containment and venting standards. Severe service applications include high temperature, high pressure, erosive particulate, corrosive gases, are Fisher-Klosterman’s core competency, not edge cases.
Why One Distributor for the Complete CECO Environmental Portfolio Matters
Standard industrial distributors carry one product type baghouses, or cyclones, or scrubbers and recommend what they sell regardless of whether it is the correct technology for the application. We carry the complete CECO Environmental portfolio, which means we recommend the correct technology for your specific application without being constrained to a single product line.
A plastics compounder with combustible polymer dust gets a Flex-Kleen iSeries with Kst 400 explosion protection. A foundry with high-temperature abrasive dust gets a Fisher-Klosterman XQ Series cyclone in alloy steel. A large-scale industrial operation with a heavy dust load gets a Fisher-Klosterman cyclone as primary separator feeding a Flex-Kleen baghouse.
We match the technology to the application, not the application to the technology we happen to stock.

KB Duct — Modular Industrial Ducting
Kirk & Blum, which has been fabricating industrial sheet metal since 1907. Today KB Duct is one of the most complete modular industrial ducting lines available, offering three distinct system types to match any application:
- Clamp-Together Duct — Available from 3″ to 24″ diameter in 22-gauge to 10-gauge steel depending on diameter. Applicable to virtually every dust collection system including wood, paper, chemical, fume, oil mist, and abrasive applications.
- The standard n-butyl rubber gasket covers 95% of applications; FDA silicone is available for food and high-temperature service; Viton and ePTFE gasket materials handle the aggressive chemical applications where standard rubbers would fail. Note: clamp-together should not be used for heavy concentrations of liquid or for positive-pressure dust conveyance, those applications use flanged duct.
- Welded Flanged Duct — Available in lengths up to 20 feet, material up to 1/4″ thick, seam-welded on 16-gauge and heavier material and on diameters 25″ and above. The heavy industrial end of the ducting spectrum foundries, cement plants, sand and coal conveying, and other severe abrasive applications.
The KB Duct Series 1000 Clamp is their proprietary joining hardware, galvanized steel with an extra-large handle designed for true one-handed operation, built to be opened, repositioned, and re-clamped repeatedly without losing holding force.
