Components of the filtration process
Industrial filtration systems rely on a combination of essential components to operate efficiently and effectively. These include:
Filter Media: Made from metal, ceramic, activated carbon, or synthetic fibres, this component in machinery filters is responsible for trapping and retaining particles.
Filter Housing: This ensures proper alignment and sealing to prevent bypass by supporting and enclosing filter media. This is also the connection point for fluid or gas inlet and outlet.
Pressure Differential Indicator: This unit is a monitoring and signalling component for pressure drop and threshold across the filter. This also determines maintenance or filter replacement schedules in industrial filtration systems.
Seals and Gaskets: These components ensure a tight, leak-proof connection between the filter housing and adjoining system elements, preventing fluid bypass in liquid filtration and preserving filtration efficiency.
Supporting Structure: In larger industrial filtration systems, a robust supporting structure such as frames, racks, or mounting brackets is essential to securely hold filters in place and maintain operational stability.
