Micron fitationis very complex design Reliability s most important in micron filation. Giving micron rating to the media is an arbitrary micrometer value indicated by the fiter manufacturer. Hence selecting proper filter media to. particular application is very important. We do our own Bubble point test for SinleredS.S. andS.S. Wire-mesh media, Consistency and re-productvity is must in fiter media. We give Nominal, absolute Beta rated or up to 10"° Bacterial Aerosol Challenge tested cartridges depend upon the application Ease of Use is being considered during sizing and designing of the system, We give quick opening of the housing to replace/remove the cartridge within no time.TECHNO-FILT BASIC |FILTERATION Re eo a ‘There are various tration & separation procedures follows by industry for removal of un-wanted particles (contamination) ike: 1 Centrtuge © Fiter pross, |B Electro dialysis © Continuous vacuum fiter | a Cartridge fiter (Micro fitration) | ml Reverse osmosis 1 Disc type knife ftor 1m Dialysis 1m Uta fitration /Neno ftration system Basic difference between Micro filtration, Ultra filtration & R.O: (—2.0001%m ) (— 0001 4m >) (8 Low ae 108 oi zon) [—to00008" Reverse Uttre Microfitration Osmosis Filtration 2 yum. 1 m—Micron '& Smallest pencil dot, which we can see by necked eye, is about 40um.
