Solids filters - clean media, safe processes | 02-04-2025
vytvořil: Sabrina
Solids filters play a crucial role in industrial processes in which media can be contaminated with coarse impurities. They are used to remove unwanted solids from powdery media before they reach downstream process steps. This increases the operational reliability of the systems, minimizes production downtime and ensures consistently high product quality.
Functionality and technical features
Solids filters typically consist of a stainless steel housing with a filter unit that retains coarse particles. The sieve insert is available with different gap widths. The targeted filtration removes abrasion particles, residual materials from previous batches or foreign bodies that could otherwise lead to contamination or damage to subsequent process stages.
Your benefits at a glance
- Process reliability: Prevents unwanted solids from entering pumps, valves or other system components.
- Product quality: Ensures consistent purity of the medium and avoids impurities in the end product.
- Long system service life: Reduces wear on downstream components.
- Easy maintenance: Quick-change filter inserts and robust design for a long service life.
Application examples
- concrete plants: During the transportation of cement, coarse particles can get into the material due to abrasion or previous loads. Solids filters effectively remove these before the materials are processed further.
- Bakeries: In flour logistics, foreign particles such as plastic residues or metal particles from transport lines can get into the flour. Solids filters ensure that only pure flour flows into the production process and that the quality of the baked goods is guaranteed.
