Products Description
Stainless Steel Pleated Filter Cartridge - High-Purity Filtration for Harsh Environments
Product Overview
Our Stainless Steel Pleated Filter Cartridge is a premium filtration solution engineered with precision-folded stainless steel mesh or sintered metal fibers, delivering exceptional durability, chemical resistance, and contaminant retention. Ideal for high-temperature, high-pressure, or corrosive applications, it combines a large filtration area with easy cleanability, making it suitable for industries like pharmaceuticals, petrochemicals, and water treatment.
Key Features
- Enhanced Filtration Efficiency
- Pleated Design: Maximizes filtration area (up to 3x compared to flat cartridges), ensuring high throughput while maintaining low pressure drop.
- Absolute Filtration Accuracy: Down to 0.5 μm (sintered type) for critical applications like sterile liquid filtration.
- Uniform Pore Distribution: Ensures consistent particle retention and stable filtration performance.
- Extreme Durability
- Materials: 304/316L stainless steel, Hastelloy, or titanium for resistance to acids, alkalis, and seawater.
- Temperature Resistance:
- Standard pleated mesh: -40°C to 260°C.
- Sintered mesh: Up to 480°C for high-temperature processes like polymer melt filtration.
- Pressure Resistance: Withstands up to 6,000 psid (414 bar) in high-pressure systems.
- Reusable & Low Maintenance
- Cleanable Design: Restored via backflushing, ultrasonic cleaning, or chemical washing.
- Long Service Life: Reduces replacement costs compared to disposable polymer filters.
- Customizable Configurations
- Sizes: 5–40 inch lengths, 1–4 inch diameters, with OD options from 45mm to 70mm.
- End Fittings: 222/226 quick connect, DOE/SOE threaded, or flanged for seamless integration.
- Surface Finishes: Polished, electroplated, or passivated for specialized environments.
- Versatile Performance
- Multi-Media Compatibility: Handles liquids, gases, and high-viscosity fluids (e.g., oils, resins).
- Self-Supporting Structure: Reinforced core prevents collapse under extreme pressure.
