Liquid Pipeline Filtration Basket Filter

As a common industrial equipment, the Liquid Pipeline Filtration Basket Filter is used to remove solid impurities from liquids. It protects piping systems from solid impurities in a simple and efficient way. In many industrial production processes, such as chemical, petroleum, food and beverage, etc., basket filters are required to ensure the cleanliness of the fluid.

 

The working principle of basket filter

The core component of the Liquid Pipeline Filtration Basket Filter is a filter screen with multiple holes. This filter screen is designed in the shape of a basket, hence the name "basket" filter. When a liquid enters the filter, it will first pass through this filter screen. Since the hole size of the filter screen is pre-set, solid particles larger than this size will be intercepted on the filter screen, while particles smaller than the hole size can pass with the liquid to achieve the purpose of separating impurities.

Structural features of basket filter

The Liquid Pipeline Filtration Basket Filter is usually composed of the following main components:

- Filter Basket. This is the core part of the filter, usually made of metal or plastic, with enough strength to withstand the pressure of the liquid, and enough holes to ensure the passage of the liquid.

- Housing. The filter basket is placed inside a sturdy housing, which is usually made of stainless steel or other corrosion-resistant materials to protect the filter basket inside and ensure the structural stability of the entire filter.

- Inlet and outlet. Liquid enters the filter through the inlet, is filtered through the filter screen, and flows out from the outlet. Both ports are usually designed to be easily connected to pipes.

- Slag discharge port. When a certain amount of impurities have accumulated on the filter screen, it needs to be cleaned. At this time, the filter basket can be taken out through the slag discharge port for cleaning or replacement.

 

Basket filter performance characteristics

- High-efficiency filtration. The basket filter can effectively remove solid impurities from the liquid and ensure the cleanliness of the piping system.

- Easy to clean and maintain. Since the filter basket is designed for easy removal and cleaning, users can quickly perform maintenance operations, thus reducing downtime.

- Compact and easy to install. Basket filters are typically small in size, making them easy to install in limited spaces and can be easily integrated into existing piping systems.

- Diversified filter selection. The appropriate filter material and pore size can be selected according to different application requirements to adapt to different liquid and filtration requirements.

 

Basket filter application field

The Liquid Pipeline Filtration Basket Filter is widely used in many industries due to their simple structure, ease of use, and ease of maintenance.

- Chemical industry. Used to filter solid impurities in raw material liquids to ensure the purity of chemical reactions.

- Oil and gas industry. Used to remove solid particles from pipelines to prevent wear and blockage of equipment.

- Water Treatment Industry. Used to pretreat large particulate matter in water in preparation for subsequent fine filtration.

- Food and beverage industry. Used to ensure the hygiene and safety of products and remove impurities that may be generated during production.

 

Maintenance method of basket filter

The maintenance of a basket filter is relatively simple and mainly includes the following steps:

- Periodic inspection. According to the nature of the liquid and working conditions, regularly check the pressure difference of the filter to determine whether it needs to be cleaned or replaced.

- Clean the filter screen. When the pressure difference is found to increase or the flow rate decreases, the machine should be stopped and the slag discharge port should be opened, and the filter basket should be taken out for cleaning. Cleaning methods can be backwashing, brushing or chemical cleaning.

- Replace the filter. If the filter is damaged or cannot be cleaned, a new filter needs to be replaced. It is very important to choose the right size filter to ensure the filtration effect.

 

FAQ

1. Q: What is the function of a filter?

A: The main function of a filter is to remove solid particles, impurities, and harmful substances from liquids or gases, in order to achieve purification, clarification, and protection of equipment.

2. Q: How to choose a suitable filter?

A: When choosing a filter, factors such as the properties of the material being filtered (e.g., viscosity, temperature, corrosion), required filtration accuracy, processing capacity, operating pressure and medium, as well as the type, material, size, and installation method of the filter should be considered.

3. Q: What is the working principle of a filter?

A: The working principle of a filter mainly relies on physical screening, deep interception, absorption, or chemical reactions to remove impurities or harmful components from the material being filtered.

4. Q: How to maintain and care for a filter?

A: Maintenance of filters includes regular cleaning or replacement of filter elements, inspection of seals and fasteners, maintaining stable operating pressure, and avoiding overloading. Specific methods should be referenced from the filter's instruction manual and maintenance guides.

5. Q: What is the service life of a filter?

A: The service life of a filter depends on its working environment, processing volume, and filtration accuracy. Generally, when the filter's pressure drop reaches a certain value or the filtration effect decreases significantly, it needs to be replaced or cleaned.

6. Q: What should be paid attention to during filter installation?

A: During filter installation, attention should be paid to the directionality, ensuring that the fluid enters and exits from the correct ports. Also, the piping system should be cleaned before installation, and the filter should be securely fastened and sealed as required by the instructions.

7. Q: What is the replacement cycle for filters?

A: The replacement cycle for filters depends on their working conditions and filtration requirements, and is usually indicated by pressure difference indicators or timers. When the filter's pressure drop reaches the set value or the filtration effect decreases, it should be replaced in a timely manner.
