How to choose a filter mainly depends on what your filtering needs are. The material properties of 316L Sanitary Cartridge Filter Housing determine that it is relatively less prone to bacterial growth and easier to clean, making it suitable for industries with strict hygiene and safety requirements, such as food, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, etc. The material of SS304 cartridge filter housing can withstand most acidity and alkalinity, making it the most economical solution for liquids with high flow rates and low acidity and alkalinity.
Our Sanitary Cartridge Filter Housing fully supports CIP and SIP functionality. Suitable for hygiene and biopharmaceutical applications with strict pollution control and sterilization validation.
Of course. Our Sanitary Cartridge Filter Housing has a drainage interface at the bottom and a blind spot design inside the housing, with smooth inner walls that are not prone to residual liquid and can achieve complete emptying.
It depends on the chemical properties of the liquid you are filtering and the long-term operating temperature of the working conditions to determine which material is suitable? Our Sanitary Cartridge Filter Housing O-ring is available in Viton, EPDM, silicone, PTFE, and other options. Please inform us of your operating conditions and we will provide you with the best advice.
Firstly, you need to provide your operating conditions and select a filter material that matches your filtration needs to avoid leakage caused by corrosion in the later stage; Then find a reliable filter manufacturer and purchase a high-quality Sanitary Cartridge Filter Housing to eliminate the possibility of leakage and bypass from the manufacturing process; Secondly, in regular equipment maintenance, you need to regularly inspect and replace seals; Finally, avoid long-term use of the Sanitary Cartridge Filter Housing in high-pressure environments beyond standard pressure.
