3. Use environment

Operating temperature and pressure conditions

Corrosion resistance requirements

Cleaning and maintenance requirements

4. Economic factors

Product cost

Service life and maintenance cost

Based on the above factors, you can choose a suitable powder sintered filter in steps:

1. Determine the characteristics and filtration requirements of the filter medium

2. According to the medium conditions and filtration requirements, choose the appropriate material and porosity

3. Combined with the use environment, choose the appropriate structure and size

4. Evaluate the economy and choose the most cost-effective product

Usually, manufacturers can also provide professional advice to help you choose the most suitable powder sintered filter. If you have further needs, please feel free to let me know.

When using powder sintered filters, in order to extend their service life, you need to pay attention to the following aspects of care and maintenance:

1. Regular cleaning:

Depending on the degree of contamination of the filter medium, backwash or ultrasonic cleaning should be performed regularly. This can remove pollutants accumulated on the filter surface and maintain good filtering performance.

The cleaning cycle is generally 1-3 months, depending on the actual use.

2. Check the resistance pressure difference:

Regularly monitor the pressure difference of the filter. When the pressure difference exceeds the design value, it means that the filter element is clogged.

The filter element should be replaced in time to avoid damage caused by excessive pressure.

3. Protect the filter element:

Avoid mechanical impact or vibration of the filter element, which may cause damage.

Be careful when installing to avoid damage to the filter element.

4. Prevent corrosion:

If there is a corrosive medium in the use environment, consider using a filter element made of a material with better corrosion resistance.

Regularly check whether there is any sign of corrosion on the surface of the filter element, and replace the damaged filter element in time.

5. Reasonable storage:

Unused filter elements should be stored in a dry and clean environment to avoid dust and moisture.

6. Professional training:

Provide professional training for operators and familiarize them with the correct installation, disassembly and maintenance methods.

The above maintenance measures can effectively extend the service life of the powder sintered filter and ensure the stable operation of the filtration system.
