316L Stainless Steel Pleated Filter Element For Gas Filtration / Oil Filtration

JUMAO stainless steel pleated filter cartridge product line has been developed for micro filtration applications requiring a cartridge that will tolerate extreme thermal ranges and differential pressures while providing an extended service life and excellent dirt-holding capacity.
Our stainless steel pleated filter element/ cartridge attains their superior performance due to our proprietary 421 filter medium, composed of 100%, 316L random fiber stainless steel. The unique calendering process compresses the fiber matrix to form specialized filter media which provides consistently high porosities and large filtration areas. The sintered matrix is then reinforced with woven wire screen to provide the mechanical strength necessary to withstand high differential pressures and exceptional flow characteristics. To further assure product quality, each cartridge is bubble point integrity tested.
All other JUMAO filter cartridge components are fabricated from 316L stainless steel which provides exceptional chemical and thermal resistance. Our stainless steel pleated filter elements/cartridge can be cleaned mechanically, chemically or thermally to allow cartridge reuse.
Available in 0.5μm, 1.0μm, 5.0μm, 10μm, 20μm and 40μm micron ratings. Liquid particle retention is typically 99.0% efficient at the stipulated pore size.


Flow Rate of stainless steel pleated filter element/ cartridge

The following table represents typical water flow at a one psi (69 mbar) pressure differential across a single 10 inch pleated cartridge element. The test fluid is water at ambient temperature. Extrapolation for housings with multiple elements and higher pressure drops is acceptable, but as flows increase the pressure drop of the housing becomes more apparent. For 10 micron and above, the recommended maximum flow rate per 10" is 7-8 gpm for maximum service life.
