Application of Sintered Filter

A sintered filter is porous, often, cylindrical metallic part manufactured through the process of sintering. Copper and metal alloys are mixed together and fused through high temperatures achieving porosity and creating a mesh. These filters are used from household appliances to industrial/chemical plants to greater effects and here we will be talking all about the application of sintered filters.

Filtration is an essential aspect of anything we do, from drinking water to gasses used as a coolant in nuclear reactors, impurities cause trouble for everyone. But not everywhere can you use a plastic filter, strainer, chalk, or standard filtration process. Sintered filters perform a very specific task and it is useful in multiple fields of applications, depending upon the microns of porousness.

Being one of the safest and secure way to filter liquid or gas, sintered filters are either prevalent or slowly being adapted into different industries.

So, here are a few places where we see a lot of application of sintered filter:

  • Automotive Industries

    Vehicles need clean air and one of the best ways to make sure dust, dirt and unwanted liquid do not overflow into the exhaust system, sintered filters are used. From being a vital element in the exhaust pipe to being used as a filter covers for air filter of the engine, there are various use of sintered filter in automotive industry. They are even used as sound dampers in throttle and exhaust system.

  • Domestic and Electronics Industry

    Filter covers have been used in domestic appliances for years now. Vacuum cleaners, dampers in blenders, filtration units and water purifiers all use sintered filters. One of the biggest and prevalent applicants of sintered filter has been the domestic appliance industry.

    Passing of clean air to microprocessors, transistors, and sensitive performing machines have increased their used of sintered mesh. Controlled and clean air is necessary for making sure high-performance electronics are functioning at their peak potential and sintered filtered/meshes help realize that potential.

  • Chemical and Pharmaceutical Industry

    Playing around with various chemicals that are harmful to handle, most likely flammable and dangerous if taken lightly, are just the daily precautions of a chemical or pharmaceutical industry. Foreign substances cannot be allowed to impure the material at hand and sintered filter elements as well as profiles are prominent in this industry. High pressure, different viscosity level and corrosion properties result in these industries trusting sintered filters for their filtration needs.

  • Nuclear and Energy Industry

    High pressure situations are where application of sintered filters is good for. One of the benefits of using them is you can manage pressure flow rate and output based on the microns of porousness present on the surface of the filter. Inside nuclear reactors where clean water is used as coolant, sintered filters play a huge role. Energy industry uses high pressure and corrosion resistant filters.

The application of sintered filters is not just limited to these industries; sea vessels, manufacturing plants and other industries also use them. It is an essential part of manufacturing, mobility and energy.

So, Why Sintered Filters?

We spoke in ad nauseam about the application of sintered filters but why sintered filters are used in the above-mentioned industries, instead of any other type of filter? There are a few vital reasons why people from such industries trusted a sintered product over all else.

  • The porosity of sintered filter dictates the outward or inward flow of liquid or gas. Controlled flow of filtering material can be managed without the help of a pressure gauge.
  • Sintered filters and high-pressure situations go hand in hand. When applied in pressure-rich environment, most other filter material tends to fail. You cannot use plastic or paper when the psi is extremely high. That is why sintered filters are trusted.
  • It can operate in a high-temperature environment. A sintered filter steel mesh can resist heat of up to 480°C. If the material or the alloy is changed, the heat resistance also sees changes, which is not possible in any other type of filter.

The fact that metal sintered filters can be welded onto the body of the filtration unit, the hassle of getting sealings and constantly checking it is removed. Sintered filters and its lack of sealing requirement helps in elongating the lifespan.

So, application of sintered filters is varied and there are multiple reasons why they can be helpful for you. And if you are on the lookout for a proven manufacturer of sintered filters in Europe, with the best prices, then give us a call. We have been manufacturing sintered filters since the inception of Eurobalt Engineering and we would be glad to assist you in your project.
