Filter Selection & Technical Requirements

Different filtration technologies are designed for different process conditions. Bag filters are commonly used for general liquid filtration, cartridge filters for finer particle removal, basket strainers for coarse filtration, and self-cleaning or backwash filters for applications requiring automatic cleaning and reduced manual maintenance.
Magnetic filters, titanium rod filters, and membrane filtration systems are also available for specific separation requirements.

For accurate filter selection, please provide the process medium, required flow rate, filtration accuracy, working pressure, operating temperature, viscosity, solids content, connection size, and material requirements.
For complex applications, information about particle characteristics and operating cycles is also helpful.

The available filtration range depends on the filtration technology. For example, our automatic brush self-cleaning filters are available from 20–3000 μm, multi-column backwash filters from 5–1000 μm, and filter bags from approximately 0.5–2000 μm. Finer filtration can be achieved with cartridge or membrane filtration systems.

Flow capacity varies by filter type and model. Our standard automatic brush self-cleaning filters cover approximately 50–3000 m³/h, while stainless steel bag filter configurations range from approximately 10–600 m³/h.
Actual sizing should also consider filtration accuracy, viscosity, solids loading, and allowable pressure drop.
