Filtration & process industry
We supply filtration specialists, process plants and water-system integrators with mesh, filter elements, screens and venting components. Retention rating, loading and housing requirements determine the specification for each application.
The Filtration Failure Database describes symptoms, possible causes and suitable mesh designs. It helps you review the specification when a problem recurs.
Screens & internals
Process screens, reactor internals and supports, engineered to licensor specification where required.
Venting & breather plugs
Knitted-wire-mesh breather plugs in steel or stainless, confirmed per application against the datasheet.
Failure analysis knowledge
The Filtration Failure Database: symptom → root cause → mesh solution, free to use as a specification aid.
Common filtration problems
Use the symptom to find a practical guide and related product information as a starting point for technical review.
Similar symptoms can have different causes. Review the medium, flow, temperature, pressure and cleaning method before specifying a product.
Why does my filter mesh blind within hours?
Differential pressure climbs far faster than the design curve. Cleaning intervals shrink from weeks to hours, and after each cleaning the recovery gets worse. Throughput drops while the pumps work harder.

Why is my 316L mesh pitting in brine or chloride service?
Small perforations and rust-brown spots appear on stainless mesh or filter elements. In warm chloride streams this can occur within months. Attack is often concentrated at crevices, clamped edges and welds while the surrounding material still looks bright.

Why is liquid carrying over past my demister pad?
Liquid droplets reach equipment downstream of the demister. Possible effects include fouled compressor blades, off-spec overhead product and pipe corrosion. Carry-over can occur even when the pad appears intact at inspection.

Why do wire fragments appear downstream of my filter?
Fine wires or mesh fragments appear in downstream strainers and product samples. They may also reach pumps and nozzles. Filtration can appear to work while the damaged area allows increasing quantities of particles through.
