Gas filter

basketcartridgemembrane

The cartridge or basket type separator filter with a filtering grade 3, 5, 10, 20 micra or larger, using cellulose membrane and phenolic resin or steel screen (pressure over 600#) as the filtering media is largely applied in solid/gas separation, preventing and retaining gas flow fines. Such abrasive particles (corrosion, scaling, silica, sulfites, etc) cause irreversible damages to compressors, turbines,meters, regulators and piping. The pleated cellulose membrane has a large filtering area, which allows longer life to the filtering media, greater solid retention capacity and, therefore, offers the customer saving advantages. The filters are built in carbon steel, classified as per ASME/ASTM, and include internal partitions that keep dirt from falling into the discharge pipe upon changing the filtering element. The mobile inner pieces are SS 304 made, corrosion resistant, which ensures total chemical and mechanical compatibility for natural gas applications. The filter and filtering element designs are compliant to applicable non-turbulent flow, therefore, the discharge loss is minimum, not interfering in the other equipment placed after the filter. The filtering media are 100% Brazilian made and available to regular supply,allowing for quick response to customer needs, preventing heavy and useless replacement inventories. Metallic screen filtering elements supporting larger pressure loss, washable, can be assembled upon request to our engineering department.
