FILTERATION SKIDS – BASKET / CUNO / BAG / SELF CLEANING
Filtration Skids are specialized systems used in industrial processes to remove particles, contaminants, or debris from liquids or gases. They are integral to maintaining system efficiency, protecting equipment, and ensuring product purity in industries such as oil and gas, water treatment, food and beverages, pharmaceuticals, and more.
Below are the common types of filtration skids and their applications:
Description:
Basket filters consist of a mesh or perforated basket that traps debris and particles in the fluid passing through the system. The basket can be removed and cleaned, making them a simple and effective filtration solution.
Applications:
Ideal for filtering larger particles from fluids such as water, oils, and chemicals.
Commonly used in pipelines for industrial and commercial applications.
Suitable for low-viscosity fluids in manufacturing and processing plants.
Advantages:
Easy to clean and maintain.
Effective for large particle filtration.
Available in various mesh sizes to suit different requirements.
Description:
CUNO filters, typically cartridge-based, offer finer filtration than basket filters. They use multi-layer filtration cartridges to remove particulates from fluids.
Applications:
Used in food and beverage industries for water purification.
Suitable for pharmaceutical and biotechnology applications requiring sterile filtration.
Ideal for removing fine particles, bacteria, and suspended solids.
Advantages:
High dirt-holding capacity.
Easy cartridge replacement.
Suitable for fine filtration processes.
Description:
Bag filters use a fabric filter bag to capture particles from the fluid. The bags can be removed and replaced, offering an economical solution for a wide range of applications.
Applications:
Suitable for water treatment, chemical processing, and paints/coatings industries.
Ideal for applications that deal with high flow rates and need to filter larger quantities of fluid.
Advantages:
Cost-effective filtration for high-volume processes.
Wide range of micron ratings to match filtration needs.
Easy-to-replace filter bags.
Description:
These filters automatically clean themselves by using mechanisms such as backwashing or rotating brushes, allowing for continuous operation without the need for manual cleaning.
Applications:
Commonly used in industrial processes that require constant filtration, such as water treatment plants, cooling water systems, and oil refining.
Ideal for applications where downtime for cleaning is not feasible.
Advantages:
Continuous filtration without the need for stopping the process.
Low maintenance due to automatic cleaning.
Suitable for large-scale industrial applications with high flow rates and particle loads.
These filtration systems are crucial in ensuring clean, filtered fluid or gas for industrial processes, protecting equipment, and maintaining high production standards.
Key Benefits of Filtration Skids:
Customization: Filtration skids can be tailored to specific industry needs, ensuring optimal performance in terms of flow rate, pressure, and filtration efficiency.
Efficiency: Reduces downtime and maintenance by preventing clogging and protecting sensitive equipment from damage.
Environmental Impact: Helps in maintaining a cleaner process, reducing waste, and ensuring product purity.
