Our Automatic Backwash Palladium-on-Carbon Catalyst Filter with PLC Control, 5 Micron, 316L SS Housing is engineered to deliver superior filtration performance for demanding catalyst recovery processes. Combining advanced automation with robust construction, this filter ensures consistent operation, minimal downtime, and extended catalyst life. Discover how our expertise in wire mesh and filtration systems can optimize your production efficiency.
Product Overview: This filter is designed specifically for the filtration of palladium-on-carbon (Pd/C) catalysts, commonly used in pharmaceutical, chemical, and fine chemical industries. The 5 micron filtration precision effectively captures fine catalyst particles, reducing losses and improving product purity. The 316L stainless steel housing offers excellent corrosion resistance and durability, even in harsh chemical environments. With PLC-controlled automatic backwash, the system self-cleans without manual intervention, ensuring continuous operation and consistent flow rates.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: How does the automatic backwash work?
The PLC monitors differential pressure across the filter. When pressure reaches a preset level (or after a set time interval), the backwash cycle initiates automatically. The filter reverses flow through the media, flushing out trapped particles. The system then returns to normal filtration. No manual intervention is needed.
Q2: What is the typical backwash frequency?
Backwash frequency depends on the catalyst concentration and flow rate. Typically, it ranges from once every 2 to 8 hours. The PLC can be programmed to adjust based on actual conditions. Our technical team can help you determine the optimal settings for your process.
Q3: Can this filter be used for other catalysts besides palladium-on-carbon?
Yes, the 5 micron filter is suitable for many fine particulate catalysts, such as platinum, ruthenium, or nickel-based catalysts. However, we recommend checking chemical compatibility with the 316L SS housing. For aggressive chemicals, we can provide alternative materials like Hastelloy or PTFE-lined options.
Q4: Is the housing certified for pressure vessels?
Our housing is designed and manufactured according to general pressure vessel standards. Specific certifications (e.g., ASME, PED) are available upon request. Please contact us with your requirements, and we will provide a customized solution.
Q5: What maintenance is required?
Periodic inspection of the filter elements, seals, and control valves is recommended. The PLC system has self-diagnostic features. The 316L SS housing requires minimal maintenance – just routine cleaning. We provide a detailed maintenance manual with every unit.
Q6: Can I integrate this filter with my existing DCS or SCADA system?
Yes, the PLC controller supports standard communication protocols such as Modbus, Profibus, or Ethernet/IP. We can configure the controller to send alarms and status signals to your central control system.
Q7: What are the available sizes?
Standard sizes range from 10-inch to 40-inch filter elements, with housing diameters from 6 inches to 24 inches. Custom sizes are available to match your flow rate requirements. Our sales team can help you select the appropriate model.
Q8: How long is the lead time and warranty period?
Lead time is typically 15-30 working days depending on complexity. We offer a 12-month warranty covering manufacturing defects. Extended warranty options are available. For urgent orders, we can expedite production.
