Key Features & Technical Specifications
- High-Quality Material: All wetted parts are made of 316L stainless steel, offering excellent resistance to acidic and alkaline cleaning agents commonly used in dairy CIP (Clean-in-Place) systems.
- Precision Filtration: Available with mesh sizes from 10 to 500 mesh, customizable to meet specific particle removal requirements. The woven wire mesh element is securely bonded to prevent bypass.
- Hygienic Design: Smooth internal surfaces with no dead zones, easy to clean and sanitize. Optional mirror polish finish (Ra ≤ 0.8 μm) for enhanced cleanability.
- Versatile Connection: Standard threaded or clamp connections (DIN, SMS, RJT, 3A, etc.) available. Custom flanged connections can be provided upon request.
- Durable Construction: Suitable for operating pressures up to 10 bar (150 psi) and temperatures from -20°C to 150°C, with customizable ranges for special applications.
- Low Pressure Drop: Optimized flow path minimizes pressure loss, ensuring efficient operation even with high-viscosity dairy fluids.
- Easy Maintenance: Quick-open design (e.g., clamp or threaded cap) allows fast element replacement without tools. The strainer can be fully disassembled for thorough cleaning.
