Selecting The Right Types Of Filters For Liquid Filtration

Filtration of liquids is an essential step in many industrial and manufacturing processes. It is possible to use process filtration technology to remove unwanted particles and microorganisms from liquids and fluids, no matter what the application. Many companies use filter housings that contain consumable cartridges. However, with numerous filter types available, finding the right one can be complex and time-consuming. This is where TFI Filtration UK can help. A filter cartridge can be made from many different materials, can vary in size, and can be used to filter nearly every type of solid contaminant from nearly every type of liquid. The micron rating of industrial liquid filters determines the size of particles that will be retained. Particles will either be captured on the inside or outside of the filter element depending on the design.
Selecting the right types of filters for liquid filtration

The differential pressure across liquid filters increases as more particles are captured by the media. In order to prevent breakthrough or flow restriction, the filter will have to be replaced or regenerated once the differential pressure reaches a defined level. Consequently, the vast majority of filters are considered consumable items, though they are contained within a permanent filter housing.

The cost of operating a filter can be reduced by properly sizing it and considering all the elements that may affect its life, resulting in low total cost of ownership for the filter.

Using the wrong filtration product is too risky for productivity. It can be complicated to choose the right filter for your application with so many filtration methods and types of cartridges available. Incorrectly sized or incompatible filter cartridges can lead to problems throughout your operation, including failure of systems, breakdowns, and downtime. All of this impacts your bottom line in terms of product quality and cost.
