Automatic Self-Cleaning Filter Sector for Dewatering Filter, 316L Stainless Steel
Product Spotlights
As a leading manufacturer from Anping County Boli Hardware Wiremesh Products Factory (established in 1998), we specialize in producing high-quality Automatic Self-Cleaning Filter Sectors for dewatering filters. Crafted from premium 316L stainless steel, these sectors are designed to provide continuous, low-maintenance operation in demanding solid-liquid separation processes. Our self-cleaning mechanism effectively reduces downtime and labor costs, making them an ideal choice for mining, chemical, food processing, and wastewater treatment industries.
Each filter sector is manufactured with precision wedge wire technology, ensuring uniform slot openings and high open area for maximum filtration efficiency. The automatic self-cleaning feature (backwash or scraper mechanism) prevents clogging and maintains consistent flow rates, even with high-solids content slurries. With over 20 years of export experience to markets across North America, South America, Europe, Asia, and Africa, our products are trusted by global clients for their durability and performance.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Q: What is the difference between 316L and 304 stainless steel for filter sectors?
A: 316L contains molybdenum, providing superior resistance to chlorides and acidic environments. It is recommended for corrosive slurries, while 304 is suitable for milder conditions. -
Q: How does the automatic self-cleaning function work?
A: The sector can be equipped with a backwash system (reverse flow of filtrate) or a mechanical scraper/brush that rotates to remove accumulated solids. The cleaning cycle is programmable and triggered by pressure differential or timer. -
Q: Can I get custom dimensions for my existing filter press?
A: Yes, we can manufacture sectors according to your drawings or samples. Please provide the length, width, slot opening, and mounting hole pattern. -
Q: What is the typical lifespan of a 316L self-cleaning filter sector?
A: With proper operation, the lifespan can exceed 5–10 years, depending on the slurry abrasiveness and cleaning frequency. The stainless steel construction resists wear and corrosion. -
Q: Do you offer samples before bulk order?
A: Absolutely. We can provide a sample sector for testing. Sample cost is negotiable, and shipping is at the buyer's expense. -
Q: What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ)?
A: Our MOQ for standard sizes is 10 pieces. For custom sizes, it may be 20–50 pieces, depending on complexity. -
Q: How is the sector packaged for export?
A: Each sector is wrapped in protective plastic and packed in wooden crates or steel pallets to prevent damage during shipping. -
Q: Can the sector be used in high-temperature applications?
A: 316L stainless steel can withstand temperatures up to 800°C in oxidizing environments, but the sealing and cleaning mechanism may have lower limits. Please specify your temperature range for design adjustment.
