Product description
Corrosion resistant filter housings for aggressive process media
This range of filter housings is designed for liquid filtration applications where standard stainless steels are not suitable due to chemical exposure, elevated temperature, or corrosion risk. The housings are supplied in high performance nickel alloys and titanium and can be configured for sanitary or industrial filtration installations depending on process and cleaning requirements.
These housings are typically selected when the filtration step is critical and the process medium contains aggressive acids, chlorides, oxidizing agents, reducing agents, or seawater type environments.
Filtration concept
The housing is designed for cartridge filtration and can be configured for single or multi cartridge arrangements depending on the required flow rate, service interval and available installation space.
Filtration performance is defined by the selected filter cartridge. The housing provides the pressure boundary, flow path and reliable sealing required for stable and safe filtration under demanding process conditions.
Material selection guide
Selecting the correct construction material is a key engineering decision. Each material offered has specific strengths depending on chemical composition, temperature and corrosion mechanisms.
Hastelloy C22
Hastelloy C22 is selected for its exceptionally broad corrosion resistance in both oxidizing and non oxidizing chemical environments. It offers strong resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion and stress corrosion cracking in chloride containing service.
This material is typically chosen when process chemistry is complex or variable and when long term corrosion resistance is required across a wide range of aggressive media.
Hastelloy C276
Hastelloy C276 is selected for excellent general corrosion resistance and stable performance in a wide range of chemical process environments. It performs well in both oxidizing and reducing conditions and is often specified where corrosion reliability is critical.
This material is commonly used when chemical composition may vary over time or where conservative material selection is required for safety and uptime.
Monel
Monel is a nickel copper alloy selected for specific chemical and marine related applications. It offers strong resistance in seawater and brine environments and is well known for its performance in fluoride containing service.
Monel is often chosen where hydrofluoric acid or marine exposure defines material compatibility requirements.
Titanium
Titanium, typically commercially pure grades, is widely used in chloride containing environments and seawater service due to its excellent corrosion resistance. It exhibits very low corrosion rates in many aggressive environments when properly designed.
Titanium is commonly applied in high purity processes, marine applications and chemically demanding duties where long service life and corrosion resistance are essential.
