Sintered mesh filter element

Our SM filter elements are made from CWM meshcomposite (MC) filter media. This unique material is made from wire mesh and perforated metal, sintered together into a durable porous filtration medium.The various layers of woven wire mesh and/or perforated metal are chosen to achieve the filtration,pre-coat,backwash and flow requirement of the application. Manufactured from 316L stainless steel, these can be retrofitted into existing applications.

All of our Sintered Mesh Filter Element are designed and tested toexceed the industry standards for resin retention, mechanical integrity, pre-coatability and backwash efficiency, to extend run times and maximize ion exchange performance. Custom configurations can be provided.

Typical Applications

1.Reactor water clean-up

2.Fuel pool clean-up

3.Radwaste processing

4.Condensate polishing

SM filter elements are made from multiple layers of woven wire mesh and perforated metal, which are sintered together into a rigid porous filtrationmedium.Each layer is chosen for a particular purpose: filtration, flow distribution, backwash performance,strength and rigidity, etc. This unique material is then formed and welded into filter septa – designed and tested specifically for nuclear applications.

All SM filter elements are GTAW welded using the latest techniques for weld purity and strength. All filter elements are bubble-point tested (ARP-901) to ensure the desired filtration performance is met.
