Description
Features & Benefits
- Thirteen sizes, three micron ratings, and connection
options to meet virtually all purification requirements in
steam filtration applications. - High-quality continuous 316L sintered stainless steel filter
media construction with 304 SS welded end caps ensures
excellent material resistance to steam. - Heavy-duty design withstands a maximum differential
pressure up to 72 psi and an operating temperature range
of -60°F to 392°F (with optional Fluoraz®* o-rings). - The Sintered ASF 5 micron element exceeds 3-A
guidelines for the production of Culinary Steam (95% @ 2
micron) under Accepted Practice T609-04. - The 50+% porosity level ensures high dirt holding capacity
at low differential pressure and high flow rate. - Multiple regenerative methods are possible including
back-flushing, ultrasonic cleaning, and solvent cleaning
with hydrogen peroxide and other chemicals allowing for
longer filter life and reduced operating costs. - All components meet the FDA requirements for contact
with food in accordance with the Code of Federal
Regulations (CFR), Title 21. The filter element is
manufactured according to DIN EN ISO 9001.
Applications
There are several terms used for steam. Process steam is used in process applications as a source of energy for process
heating, pressure control and mechanical drives. Culinary steam can be direct injected during food processing. Culinary
steam needs to meet 3-A Culinary Standards for the dairy industry. Process steam does not generally come in contact
with the final product whereas culinary steam can, and often does, come in direct contact with the final product.
