The melt filter element is installed in the extrusion line, where the polymer melt is forced through the filter to remove impurities. The filtered polymer melt then proceeds to the spinning process, where it is solidified into continuous filaments or staple fibers.
The main filter layer of Pleated Filter mainly uses two materials: stainless steel wire mesh and stainless steel sintered fiber. Stainless steel wire mesh is woven from stainless steel wire. Its pleated filter has the characteristics of smooth pores, easy cleaning, high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, no wire mesh falling off, and long filtration cycle. Stainless steel sintered fiber is a porous deep filter material made of stainless steel fibers sintered at high temperature. Its pleated filter has the characteristics of high porosity, good air permeability, strong dirt holding capacity, and strong regeneration ability.
❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Q
What materials are used in the polymer pleated candle filter?
The filter is made from SUS304 or 316L stainless steel. The main filter media include stainless steel wire mesh and stainless steel sintered fiber, both offering excellent corrosion resistance and high-temperature durability.
Q
What filtration ratings are available for the polymer candle filter?
The filtration rating ranges from 1 to 200 microns, making it suitable for a wide range of polymer melt filtration applications requiring different levels of precision.
Q
What is the maximum working temperature of the pleated candle filter?
The polymer pleated candle filter can operate at temperatures up to 350℃, making it well-suited for high-temperature polymer melt processing environments such as polyester and nylon extrusion lines.
Q
What connector types are compatible with this filter?
The filter supports a wide range of connector types including 222, 226, 215, M36, M28, M24, M22, and M20, providing flexible compatibility with various filtration systems and equipment configurations.
Q
What industries can use the polymer pleated candle filter?
The filter is widely used across multiple industries including petrochemical, metallurgy, textile, electronics, pharmaceuticals, thermal power, and nuclear power — anywhere that requires reliable high-temperature or high-viscosity melt filtration.
Q
Can the filter be cleaned and reused?
Yes. The stainless steel wire mesh version features smooth pores that are easy to clean, while the sintered fiber version offers strong regeneration ability — both options provide a long filtration cycle and can be cleaned and reused for cost-effective operation.
