Filter Applications Headline filter housings and elements are suitable for a wide range of gas filtration applications for both particulate removal and coalescing of liquid aerosols. Filter housing configuration will depend on the filtration duty. Some of the more common applications are shown here. To select the correct filter housing, the following information is required – Pressure and temperature of the gas at the filter housing. Chemical & physical composition of the gas. Type of filtration duty: Inlet, particulate, coalescing, fast loop. Flow rate, line size and level of filtration required....

Disposable Bonded Microfibre Filter Elements Headline disposable filter elements are manufactured from precise mixtures of borosilicate glass microfibres, to the very highest standards of quality control. These elements offer exceptional filtration efficiency at very low pressure drops and, being 90+% void volume, give very long service life. The elements are self-gasketing and easily sealed into the housing by axial compression. The elements are bonded to impart high strength and eliminate fibre shedding. The choice between the different binders available will depend upon the application conditions....

Stainless Steel and PTFE Filter Elements Stainless Steel Filter Elements Stainless steel filter elements are made up of several layers of 316 mesh that are sintered together to form an integrated porous element. The middle mesh is of very fine gauge and determines the filtration efficiency of the elements. This layer is then overlaid with inner and outer layers of coarser mesh, to give support and protection. The elements are a typical surface filter and the contaminants are retained on the surface of the filtration layer, this makes cleaning and back flushing a simple process. These filter elements...
