Liquid filter bags

Liquid filter bags are filtration devices used in various industrial applications to separate solid particles and contaminants from liquid streams. These filter bags are designed to capture and retain solid particles while allowing the clean liquid to pass through. They play a critical role in maintaining product quality, ensuring process efficiency, and protecting downstream equipment. Here’s an overview of liquid filter bags:

Technical Specifications

Purpose –

The primary purpose of liquid filter bags is to remove solid particles, sediments, debris, and contaminants from liquid streams. This filtration process improves the quality and clarity of the liquid, making it suitable for various industrial processes, water treatment, and other applications.

Construction –

Liquid filter bags are typically made of porous materials such as polypropylene, polyester, nylon, or other synthetic or natural textiles. The choice of filter material depends on factors like chemical compatibility, temperature resistance, and particle retention requirements.

Filter bags are fabricated into various shapes and sizes, with an open end for liquid inlet and a sealed or drawstring-closed end to secure the captured solids.

Filtration Mechanism –

Liquid filter bags operate based on mechanical filtration. As the liquid flows through the porous filter media, solid particles are captured and retained on the surface or within the filter media while the clean liquid passes through.

Installation –

Liquid filter bags are installed in filtration housings or vessels specifically designed for their use. The bags are placed inside these vessels, and the liquid to be filtered is directed through the bags. The filtered liquid exits through the vessel’s outlet, leaving the captured solids within the filter bags

Micron Ratings –

Liquid filter bags are available in various micron ratings, which indicate the size of particles they can effectively capture. The choice of micron rating depends on the desired level of filtration and the size of particles present in the liquid stream.

Applications –

Liquid filter bags are used in a wide range of industries and applications, including:

Water treatment: To remove sediment and impurities from drinking water and wastewater.
Food and beverage: For clarification, flavor enhancement, and removal of solid particles from beverages, syrups, and cooking oils.
Chemical processing: To purify chemicals, remove contaminants, and protect equipment.
Pharmaceuticals: In the production of pharmaceuticals, where product purity is critical.
Paints and coatings: To remove contaminants and ensure a smooth finish in paint and coating applications.
Oil and gas: In the filtration of crude oil, hydraulic fluids, and other process fluids.
Electronics manufacturing: To filter process chemicals and solvents.

Maintenance –

Regular maintenance is essential to replace or clean filter bags as they become clogged or saturated with particles. Proper maintenance ensures the continued effectiveness of the filtration process.

Note –

 Not all Usha Filters products are washable, as due to washing filter media fibers get weak and damaged which may later effect filter poor performance. Please consult manufacturer for same.We provide detailed cleaning manual.

 Filters can be made various tailor made size and type as per customer requirements with respect to thier application, fitment, Usage, desired flow, particulate matter concentration load and filtration class required.
