- Customization Available: We can adjust micron rating, length, O-ring material, and end cap style according to your specific requirements.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
-
Q: Can this filter element be cleaned and reused?
A: Yes, the 316L stainless steel construction allows for backwashing, ultrasonic cleaning, or chemical cleaning. However, the cleaning frequency depends on the application and contamination level. Always follow proper cleaning procedures to avoid damage. -
Q: What is the maximum operating temperature?
A: The stainless steel element itself can withstand temperatures up to 200°C, but the O-ring material limits the overall temperature. Standard silicone O-rings are rated up to 200°C; EPDM up to 150°C; Viton up to 200°C. Please specify your temperature requirement when ordering. -
Q: Is this filter element compatible with my existing housing?
A: Our 20-inch, 222 O-ring filter element is widely compatible with standard housings that accept 222 O-ring style cartridges. We recommend checking the housing dimensions and O-ring groove to ensure a proper fit. -
Q: What is the pressure drop across this element?
A: Initial pressure drop is very low (typically below 2 psi at design flow). As the filter loads, pressure drop will increase. We recommend replacing or cleaning the element when pressure drop reaches 15-20 psi. -
Q: Can you customize the micron rating?
A: Yes, we offer custom micron ratings from 1 micron to 100 micron. Please contact us with your specific requirements. -
Q: What is the typical lifespan of this filter?
A: Lifespan varies greatly depending on the fluid, contamination level, and cleaning practices. In many water filtration applications, the element can last 6 months to 2 years with proper cleaning. For high-load applications, it may need more frequent cleaning. -
Q: Does the 300 psi rating apply to all O-ring materials?
A: The 300 psi rating is based on the stainless steel structure. The O-ring material must be compatible with the pressure and fluid. For high-pressure applications, we recommend using Viton or a custom O-ring material. -
Q: Do you provide samples for testing?
A: Yes, we offer sample orders for evaluation. Please contact our sales team to discuss your testing requirements.
