Cartridge Filter

Instrument Gas Filter – Key Features

• The filter consists of a housing with a suitably designed element. Vessel sizing is based on the required filtration area, flow rate, and maximum allowable pressure drop.

• Selection of the element design depends on multiple parameters like viscosity, density, and degree of filtration.

• The Instrument Gas Filter uses a simple cylindrical cartridge that rests inside the housing.

• Cartridges are fixed to the candle holding plate via threading provided on the top cap of the cartridge.

• Inline or offline connections are provided based on the process requirements.

• Pressure gauges can be installed at inlet/outlet nozzles to monitor pressure drop across the system.

• Vessels are fabricated in accordance with ASME Section VIII, Division 1, and include lifting lugs, handles, legs, and other accessories as per the required mechanical and process conditions.

• Cartridge filters are available for liquid applications up to 0.1 microns and for gas applications up to 0.01 microns.

• Cartridge materials include cotton, cellulose, fiberglass, polyester, borosilicate glass fiber, ceramic, sintered stainless steel, and bronze.

• Filter housings are offered in Carbon Steel, Stainless Steel, Alloy Steel, Polypropylene, PFR, and other plastics as per customer requirements.

• All fabrication follows ASME Section VIII standards for quality and safety.

• Electrostatically charged Zeta Potential Cartridges are available for specialized applications like cobalt removal from heavy water in nuclear power plants.
