Filter Basket and Conical Filter

These elements are essential components for pipeline protection and solid-liquid separation.

Filter Basket:
Features a basket-like shape made of stainless steel porous plates, wire mesh, and sintered mesh. It offers a large dirt holding capacity, high pressure resistance, and is easy to install, clean, and reuse. It acts as a coarse pipeline filter to remove large impurities, protecting critical machinery such as compressors and pumps.

Conical Filter:
Also known as a temporary filter, it is a conical-shaped coarse filter used primarily during start-up or commissioning phases. It can be divided into conical pointed bottom and conical flat bottom types. The conical shape maximizes the surface area for efficient filtration and fluid contact.
  • Filter Basket: Large dirt holding capacity, high pressure resistance, easy installation, and customized dimensions.
  • Conical Filter: Exerts uniform surface filtration performance for filtration sizes of 2 - 200 µm.
  • Excellent corrosion resistance, heat resistance, wear resistance, and strong stress resistance.
  • Uniform pores, precise filtration accuracy, and large flow rate per unit area.
  • Reusable and easily cleanable for repeated use without need for replacement.

Operating Principle

Fluid enters the interior of the basket or conical structure. Large solid impurities, slag, or scale are trapped on the inner mesh surface, allowing only clean fluid to pass out. To clean, the line is isolated, the filter cover opened, and the basket is lifted out or the temporary cone filter is removed. The all-metal design allows backwash or ultrasonic cleanings for reuse.
