GENERAL INFORMATION
ProGuard tubular filters provide a
reusable permanent filter element, which eliminates the need to
replace dirty, expended filters, as well as eliminating the need to
dispose of dirty cartridges or bags. These filters are used in a
variety of pulp & paper and other industrial
applications.
DUPLEXED MANUAL FILTERS
When your process flow requires
continual operation, it is a problem to change or clean a dirty
filter element. A good option to straight by-pass is duplexing two
single tubes into one filtration system. The creation of a duplexed
system allows one tube to be on-line and one tube off-line in a
standby mode. Then when the on-line filter becomes dirty, the
operator can simply valve the tube off-line and switch the flow to
the clean, standby vessel, thus eliminating interruption of the
process, or complete by-pass of critical
filtering. |

TYPICAL PULP & PAPER
APPLICATIONS |
-
Retention Aids - This is usually a polymeric
compound, added to the pulp stock as a bonding agent. It can
agglomerate and cause a quality problem in the paper sheet, during
the forming process. A duplex 2000 Series filter with 100 meshwire
screen elements is a great solution in these
applications.
-
Sizing Starch - Wet end sizing starch is also
a pulp stock additive, used to make the sheet stronger during
forming. Dirty starch, poorly cooked starch, or agglomerations can
cause a quality problem on the sheet. Depending on the flow, a
60-100 mesh wire or slotted media in our duplexed filter is the
best solution here.
-
Alum - This additive is primarily for pH
control. Because Alum can precipitate or crystallize during flow
through piping, it is good to filter this additive with a tubular
filter. Alum is normally quite low flow, so the 1000 Series unit,
with 100 mesh screen works best.
-
Trim Squirt
- Due to critical nozzle size and
relatively high pressures, trim squirt nozzles are often fed by
fresh water. In this application, our .003" profile wire, single
filter provides the best filtration solution.
OTHER INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS
Anytime liquid is treated,
heated, refrigerated, or simply under pressure in the industrial
process, there may be the need for a tubular filter to remove
suspended solids. ProGuard filters do a very effective job taking
solids out of liquids in a variety of industrial
applications.
