For High-Temp & High-Viscosity Fluids
The Metal Filter Cartridge series is constructed from 316L or 304 stainless
steel wire mesh, providing high resistance to pressure, temperature, and
corrosive chemicals. Its robust, cleanable design supports repeated
backwashing, extending service life and reducing operating costs. Ideal
for filtering high-viscosity fluids, polymer melts, compressed air, and
liquids with rigid particulates.
Reasonable combination of support layer, distribution layer, and filtration layer, balancing strength and filtration rating
Stable filtration rating (commonly 1–100 μm) with good repeatability
High-pressure and pulse resistant, not easily deformed or ruptured
Adaptable to deionized water, ethylene glycol solutions, and certain functional coolants
Significantly reduces lifecycle operating costs
Suitable for cold plate systems with micro-channels and micro-porous structures
Effectively captures hard contaminants like catalysts and crystals, protecting downstream equipment from abrasion and damage.
Ideal for processing viscous materials such as resins, oils, and polymer melts that require filtration at elevated temperatures.
Used for precision filtration in pharmaceutical and food industries (e.g., syrups, colloids) and chemical processes (e.g., polymer solutions).
Removes oil, water, and solid particulates from compressed air streams, ensuring air purity and protecting pneumatic components.
• Fine filtration points before cold plate branches
• Fine filtration modules on the secondary side of the CDU (Coolant Distribution Unit)
• Long-term operation protection for micro-channel cold plate loops
• Liquid cooling systems for high-power chips extremely sensitive to particulate contamination
Long Filtration Life & Excellent Regenerability
The robust 5-layer sintered structure provides high mechanical strength, allowing it to withstand frequent backwashing or cleaning for repeated reuse, significantly reducing replacement frequency and total cost of ownership.
Superior Chemical Corrosion Resistance
Manufactured from 316L or 304 stainless steel, the cartridge offers outstanding resistance to a wide range of acids, alkalis, chemicals, and solvents, making it ideal for demanding chemical processing environments.
Exceptional Temperature and Pressure Resistance
The inherent strength and thermal stability of stainless steel enable reliable performance under high-temperature and high-pressure conditions with minimal performance degradation, ensuring safety and durability.
Broad Application Compatibility
The unique graded pore structure and sturdy construction make it highly effective for filtering fluids with rigid particles, as well as challenging high-viscosity and polymer materials.

What is a 5-layer stainless steel sintered filter cartridge mainly used for?
A 5-layer stainless steel sintered filter cartridge is designed for demanding filtration applications involving high temperature, high viscosity, rigid particles, and chemically challenging fluids. Typical applications include resins, oils, polymer melts, process gases, compressed air, coolant fluids, and other industrial streams where conventional polymer filter media may not provide sufficient strength or durability.
Why is a 5-layer sintered structure suitable for demanding filtration conditions?
The multi-layer structure combines a protective layer, support layer, distribution layer, and filtration layer to balance mechanical strength, flow distribution, and filtration accuracy. This construction provides a stable pore structure, good pressure resistance, and consistent filtration performance while reducing the risk of deformation, fiber shedding, or media damage under harsh operating conditions.
How do I choose the right micron rating for a stainless steel sintered filter cartridge?
The correct micron rating depends on the particle size to be removed, required downstream cleanliness, contamination load, fluid viscosity, flow rate, and allowable differential pressure. Available grades commonly cover approximately 1–100 μm. Selection should balance particle retention with sufficient flow, especially for viscous liquids or applications with relatively high solids loading.
Can this stainless steel filter cartridge be used with high-temperature and high-viscosity fluids?
Yes. The 304 or 316L stainless steel construction provides good mechanical strength, temperature resistance, and corrosion resistance, making it suitable for high-temperature oils, resins, polymer solutions, and other viscous process fluids. Final suitability should still be confirmed according to actual temperature, pressure, viscosity, chemical composition, and seal material.
Can the stainless steel sintered cartridge be cleaned and reused?
Yes. The rigid sintered structure is designed to support cleaning and repeated use under suitable process conditions. Depending on the contaminant, cleaning may include backwashing or other appropriate cleaning methods. Regeneration effectiveness depends on particle type, contamination depth, chemical exposure, cleaning procedure, and the condition of the filter media.
How do I confirm chemical and equipment compatibility before selecting the cartridge?
Compatibility should be checked against the process fluid, chemical concentration, operating temperature, pressure, cartridge diameter, length, end-cap configuration, and seal material. Available constructions include 304 and 316L stainless steel with different dimensions and connection options. Providing your existing cartridge specifications and operating conditions is the most reliable way to confirm fit and material suitability.
