Cleanable, reusable Auto-Klean® edge-type metal filters are capable of filtering highly viscous fluids. Typical applications include lubricating oils, hydraulic fluids, grease, fuel oil, and quenching oils. Auto-Klean® cartridges are - by turning a handle - restoring full flow. The benefits are uninterrupted flow and continuous service, and elimination of cartridge disposal problems.
Micro-Screen Stainless Steel Filter Elements
|
The
3M Cuno super Auto-Klean filter cartridge refines the design of
Auto-Klean for a higher degree of filtration while maintaining
all the ease of use of the original design. By using discs of
a smaller diameter as spacers, a second filtration area is formed.
The first filtration area, like the Auto-Klean, is between the
larger or major discs, while the second area is between the inside
diameter of the major disc and the outside diameter of the smaller
or “minor” disc.
Micro-Screen
filter elements are produced from premium quality woven stainless
steel screen mesh. Elements are all 304 or 316 stainless steel,
with screen and perforated internal support attached to end caps
equipped with replaceable gaskets. Elements can be cleaned chemically
or ultra-sonically and reused. Cylindrical elements may also be
cleaned in place by backflushing.
3M
Cuno Poro-Klean Stainless Steel Filter Elements are formed from
porous sheet stock produced from sintered powdered stainless steel.
The sintering process, performed in a controlled atmosphere furnace,
produces a strong metallurgical fusion with each stainless steel
“bead” securely bonded at several points of contact.
Properties such as porosity, pore distribution and uniformity
of material thickness are accurately controlled. Elements can
be cleaned chemically, ultrasonically, or by backflushing, and
reused.
