Simplex Filters/Strainers

Bhatia Engg Co offers Filters Strainers for use in pipelines and on the suction and discharge sides of the pumps for filtering liquids like water, lubricating oil, fuel oil, and molasses in order to filter the fluid and to avoid damages to the appliances in the pipelines. The filter body is designed to meet the regulations for a particular range of pressure. The streamlined body of the filters causes smooth flow of the fluid resulting in minimum pressure drop. The element is designed with appropriate perforations and filtering ratio to suit the fluid to be filtered and to give lower pressure drop with an appropriate safety factor for the differential pressure quoted on the filter's nameplate. These single filters are used where the plant or the filter can be isolated by means of stop valves for cleaning the filter elements. Flanges are drilled as per DIN-ND or ND 16. These are available in sizes from 20 mm to 1,600 mm and above, and pressure ratings of 10, 16, 20 and 40 kg/cm2. Fuel and lubricating oil filters are also supplied with steam heating oil inside the filter body or with steam jacketing. Filters can also be incorporated with magnetic elements to trap the magnetic particles of the oil.
