Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What is the difference between SS304 and SS316 for this filter basket?
A: SS304 is suitable for general corrosive environments and is cost-effective. SS316 offers enhanced resistance to chlorides, acids, and saltwater, making it ideal for marine, chemical, and food processing applications. Choose SS316 if your media has high chloride content or requires extra corrosion protection.
Q2: Can the slot size be customized for specific particle retention?
A: Yes, we offer slot sizes from 0.1 mm to 10 mm. You can specify the exact micron rating required, and we will manufacture the basket to achieve precise filtration. Tolerance is kept within ±0.05 mm.
Q3: How does this basket work with a self-cleaning filter?
A: The basket is installed inside the filter housing. During filtration, solids accumulate on the wedge wire surface. When the pressure differential reaches a set point, the self-cleaning mechanism (e.g., centrifugal rotation, suction scanner, or backwash) removes the debris, restoring the basket’s filtering capacity without interrupting flow.
Q4: What is the maximum working pressure and temperature?
A: The maximum pressure depends on the basket dimensions, material, and wall thickness. Typically, our baskets can handle up to 10 bar (150 psi) under standard conditions. For higher pressure, we can reinforce the structure. Temperature range for SS304/316 is up to 400°C, but actual operating limits depend on the filtration media and sealing components.
Q5: Are these baskets easy to replace or retrofit into existing systems?
A: Yes, we can replicate the exact dimensions and connection types (flange, thread, or plain) of your current basket. Provide us with a drawing or sample, and we will produce a matching replacement. Retrofit is straightforward.
Q6: What is the typical lead time for custom orders?
A: For standard sizes, lead time is 10–15 working days. Custom orders (special dimensions, slots, or connections) require 15–30 working days, depending on complexity. We offer express options for urgent needs upon request.
Q7: How do you ensure quality and consistency?
A: We follow strict in-house quality control, including raw material inspection (certified mill test reports), dimensional checks, weld strength tests, and slot size verification. Each basket is inspected before shipping. We also offer third-party inspection upon request.
Q8: Do you provide samples for testing?
A: Yes, we can provide a sample basket for evaluation. The cost is negotiable, and we can deduct it from the first production order. Shipping is at the customer’s expense.
