I. Application of Y-Type Filters in Fine Chemicals
(1) Structural and Performance Characteristics
Y-type filters are named for their shape resembling the letter "Y". They are mainly composed of connecting pipes, main pipes, filter screens, flanges and fasteners. Its filter screen is usually made of stainless steel wire mesh, which can effectively intercept solid impurities in the fluid and ensure the purity of the fluid. The Y-type filter has the following features:
• High-efficiency filtration: The standard 30-mesh/inch filter screen can intercept solid particles with a diameter of ≥50 microns.
• Low resistance: Its simple pipeline design results in less pressure loss when the fluid passes through, which will not have a significant impact on the system operation.
• Easy maintenance: The filter screen is detachable, facilitating cleaning and replacement, which reduces maintenance costs.
• Diverse materials: Carbon steel, stainless steel and other materials can be selected according to different working conditions.
(2) Application Fields
In fine chemicals, Y-type filters are widely used in the following scenarios:
• Liquid filtration: They are used to filter chemical reaction solutions, solvents, etc., to remove solid particles and ensure product quality.
• Gas filtration: In gas conveying systems, it is used to remove impurities from the gas and protect downstream equipment.
• Equipment protection: Installed at the inlet of pumps and compressors to prevent impurities from entering the equipment and extend its service life.
II. Application of Basket Filters in Fine Chemicals
(1) Structural and Performance Characteristics
Basket filters are mainly composed of connecting pipes, cylinders, filter baskets, flanges and fasteners. Its filter basket design increases the filtration area and can accommodate more impurities, making it suitable for fluid systems with high flow rates and a large amount of impurities. The features of the basket filter include:
• Large filtration area: The design of the filter basket significantly increases the filtration area compared to the Y-type filter, making it suitable for handling high-flow fluids.
• High-efficiency interception: It can effectively remove solid particles and impurities in the fluid, ensuring the purity of the fluid.
• Easy to maintain: The filter basket can be taken out separately for cleaning, making maintenance convenient.
• Sturdy material: Usually made of stainless steel, it has excellent corrosion resistance and mechanical strength.
In fine chemicals, basket filters are suitable for the following scenarios:
• High-flow liquid filtration: When dealing with large amounts of chemical reaction liquids and raw material liquids, basket filters can effectively remove impurities and ensure the purity of the fluid.
• Complex fluid filtration: For fluids containing a large amount of solid particles, basket filters can provide more efficient filtration results.
• Equipment protection: Installed at the inlet end of key equipment such as pumps and reactors, it prevents impurities from entering the equipment and ensures its normal operation.
