Our factory integrates decades of wire mesh and filtration expertise, utilizing advanced pleating technology to maximize surface area and enhance dirt-holding capacity. The 316L stainless steel construction provides superior corrosion resistance, making it suitable for aggressive fluids, steam sterilization, and high-temperature environments. Below we detail the key features and technical specifications that set this cartridge apart.

Key Features & Benefits

  • High-Precision Filtration: 0.5 micron absolute rating ensures removal of sub-micron particles, providing high clarity effluent for critical processes.
  • 316L Stainless Steel Construction: Excellent resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and stress corrosion cracking, especially in chloride-containing environments.
  • High-Temperature Capability: Maximum continuous operating temperature of 240°F (115°C) allows for use in hot fluids, steam, and CIP (Clean-in-Place) systems.
  • Pleated Design for High Flow: Corrugated pleats increase effective filtration area by up to 4-5 times compared to standard depth filters, reducing pressure drop and extending service life.
  • Reusable & Washable: The all-metal construction can be cleaned by backwashing, ultrasonic cleaning, or chemical regeneration, offering long-term cost savings.
  • Mill Test Report Included: Each batch is supplied with a certified mill test report verifying material grade, chemical composition, and mechanical properties, ensuring compliance with strict quality standards.
  • Customizable End Caps: Available with open end, closed end, 222 O-ring, 226 O-ring, or other configurations to fit standard housings.
  • Wide Compatibility: Suitable for use with various gasket materials (Silicone, EPDM, Viton) to meet different fluid compatibility requirements.

Detailed Product Description

Our 316L Stainless Steel Pleated Filter Cartridge is manufactured using high-quality 316L stainless steel wire mesh or sintered fiber felt, precision pleated to maximize the filtration area within a compact 10-inch length. The 0.5 micron rating ensures that even fine particles, such as bacteria, rust, and scale, are effectively captured. The pleated structure offers a low pressure drop, reducing energy consumption in pumping systems while maintaining high flow rates.

The cartridge is designed for applications requiring high temperature resistance and chemical compatibility. With a maximum operating temperature of 240°F, it can withstand steam sterilization (autoclaving) and hot water cleaning cycles, making it ideal for the pharmaceutical and food industries where hygiene is critical. The 316L grade provides excellent weldability and formability, and the material's molybdenum content enhances resistance to chlorides, making it suitable for seawater and brine filtration.

Each cartridge is supplied with a Mill Test Report (MTR) that certifies the chemical composition and mechanical properties of the stainless steel, ensuring full traceability from the mill to your facility. This report is a key requirement for many regulated industries, including oil and gas, petrochemical, and nuclear power.

We offer customization options for end caps and gaskets to fit standard filter housings (e.g., 222 O-ring, 226 O-ring, DOE, SOE). The cartridge can also be supplied with electropolished surface finish to reduce particle adhesion and improve cleanability. For high-viscosity fluids or high-dirt-load applications, we recommend selecting a coarser pre-filter to extend the service life of the 0.5 micron cartridge.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: Can this cartridge be used for steam sterilization?
A: Yes, the 316L stainless steel construction and 240°F maximum temperature rating make it suitable for steam sterilization (autoclaving) at typical temperatures. However, please confirm your specific steam pressure and temperature conditions to ensure compatibility.

Q2: What is the difference between 316L and 304 stainless steel for filtration?
A: 316L contains molybdenum which provides superior corrosion resistance, especially against chlorides and acidic environments. 316L also has a lower carbon content, reducing the risk of intergranular corrosion during welding. For high-temperature or aggressive chemical applications, 316L is recommended.

Q3: How do I clean and reuse this cartridge?
A: The cartridge can be cleaned by backwashing with clean water or a suitable solvent, ultrasonic cleaning, or chemical soaking (e.g., with dilute nitric acid). Avoid using harsh abrasives that could damage the metal surface. After cleaning, rinse thoroughly and dry before reuse. The number of reuse cycles depends on the application conditions.

Q4: Do you provide a mill test report for each cartridge?
A: Yes, we provide a mill test report (MTR) for each batch or individual cartridge upon request. The report includes the chemical composition and mechanical properties of the 316L material, ensuring full traceability.

Q5: What end cap configurations are available?
A: We offer open end (plain), closed end, 222 O-ring, 226 O-ring, DOE (double open end), and SOE (single open end). Custom configurations can be made to order. Please specify your housing requirements.

Q6: What is the typical pressure drop for this cartridge?
A: The pressure drop varies with flow rate, fluid viscosity, and contaminant load. At a clean condition and 10 gpm flow rate for water, the pressure drop is approximately 2-3 psi. For accurate calculations, please contact our technical team with your specific parameters.

Q7: Can this cartridge be used for gas filtration?
A: Yes, it can be used for gas filtration, such as compressed air or natural gas, provided the operating temperature and pressure are within specifications. However, gas filtration may require a different end cap design or housing to ensure proper sealing.

Q8: What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ)?
A: Our MOQ is typically 50 pieces for standard sizes. For custom configurations or large volume orders, please contact us for a tailored quote. We also offer sample orders for testing purposes.
