String wound applications
String-wound filter cartridges are among the most used filtration elements in many industries. They are made of polypropylene, cotton, or fiberglass wound around a core, creating a gradient density structure. This design ensures effective filtration of mechanical contaminants such as sand, rust, silt, and organic deposits.
Filter selection
The choice of the proper filter depends on the material used:
- Polypropylene – resistant to most chemicals, used in water, chemical, and food filtration.
- Cotton– used in the food and pharmaceutical industries.
- Glass fiber – resistant to high temperatures and aggressive chemicals.
String-wound filters have a wide range of industrial applications, including:
Water and Wastewater Industry
- Filtration of drinking and process water.
- Protection of pumps and water supply systems from contaminants.
- Pre-filtration before reverse osmosis systems.
Chemical and Pharmaceutical Industry
- Purification of solvents, acids, and bases.
- Filtration of ingredients used in the production of pharmaceuticals and cosmetics.
Oil and Energy Industry
- Purification of fuels and industrial oils.
- Filtration of water in cooling circuits.
Metallurgical and Electroplating Industry
- Removal of contaminants from electroplating baths and industrial wastewater.
- Protection of pumps and valves from metallic deposits.
Electronics Industry
- Purification of ultra-pure water for semiconductor and printed circuit board production.
