Inline Filtration System

Inline conical filters, crafted typically from glass, are specifically engineered for seamless integration into pipelines or fluid flow systems. Primarily utilized for filtering small quantities of gases or fluids within the process lines, they play a vital role in maintaining purity and efficiency throughout various industrial applications.

Introducing our inline conical filter, engineered to revolutionize filtration systems with its innovative features. With an elegant conical design, this filter offers superior performance and efficiency compared to traditional models. Its advanced filtration technology ensures optimal removal of contaminants, providing clean and purified fluids for various applications.

Inline conical filters used for many industrial applications, serving as crucial components in fluid filtration systems. These filters ensure efficient removal of contaminants, thereby enhancing performance and prolonging equipment lifespan. Their compact design & reliable filtration capabilities make them indispensable in maintaining optimal operational conditions & safeguarding from damage.

Types of Inline Conical Filters

Inline conical filters come in various types, each suited to specific applications and filtration requirements. Here are some of the most common types: Based on filter media:

Powder Sintered metallic media

Made from compressed metal powders, sintered filters offer finer filtration compared to mesh filters. Sintered filter discs are ideal for high-pressure applications and removing smaller particles in industries like pharmaceuticals, food and beverage, and electronics.

Non-woven fabric

These filters excel at capturing large amounts of dirt, making them ideal for the first stage of filtration (pre-filtration). Filter discs are made from a variety of materials, including polyester & polypropylene, to use for different industrial applications.

Sintered metal mesh media

Made from compressed metal powders, sintered filters offer finer filtration compared to mesh filters. Sintered filter discs are ideal for high-pressure applications and removing smaller particles in industries like pharmaceuticals, food and beverage, and electronics.

Factors to consider when choosing an inline filter

By understanding the different types and features of inline conical filters, you can select the most appropriate option for your specific application needs.

Flow rate requirements

Choose a filter with sufficient capacity to handle the desired flow rate without compromising pressure drop.

Particle size and type

Select a filter media with the appropriate pore size and material to effectively capture the target contaminants.

Chemical compatibility

Ensure the filter materials are compatible with the fluids being filtered to prevent corrosion or degradation.

Cleaning frequency and ease

Consider the cleaning requirements and choose a filter with a suitable cleaning method that fits your maintenance procedures.

Features of our inline Conical Filters

  • Wide choice of porosity ratings from 100 to 0.5 microns which can be used interchangeably in the same housing to suit applications requiring different filtration grades. The inline filter housings can be easily dismantled and assembled for easy replacement of discs to face any eventualities
  • Special 'envelope gasket' prevents bypass at pressures as high as 150 psi. The gaskets are offered in various materials like Silicon, EPDM, Viton etc. to ensure trouble-free operation even with a wide range of solvents and can withstand in-situ steam sterilizations at 121 C.
  • The filters can be easily cleaned, as the filter discs can be easily removed and subjected to simple cleaning methods involving less hazardous dilute acids/solvents unlike strong oxidizing acids like chromic acids used for cleaning glass filters
  • The 'unbreakability' feature is also a boon for faraway places which either may not have immediate replacements for glass filters in the event of breakages or may have to hold a substantial stock of the same. Inline Conical Filters being unbreakable and regenerable do not pose such a problem to the user.

Application Of Inline Filtration Systems

These Inline Conical Filters are ideally suited for small volume filtration in industries and laboratories. These inline filters are also ideally suited for inline filtration in the product filling, washing and sealing lines of pharmaceuticals, injectables, food products, gases, instrumentation air and similar requirements which require small flows but precision filtration. Some of these best inline filters in fact have been modified to withstand even 4500 psi rating for certain gas analysers. These Inline Conical Filters are also modified as multiporous bench filters which can be used in place of sintered glass funnels/gooch crucibles. Available in disc sizes of 47 mm and 80 mm with respective hold up volumes of 100 ml and 500 ml. Suitable for vacuum as well as pressure filtration in laboratory scale.
