Angle Type Filter

The Sanitary Angle Type Filter from VTY is a high-hygiene solution widely used in food, beverage, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries to filter solid particles and protect downstream equipment like pumps. Featuring a space-saving 90-degree inlet and outlet design, the strainer ensures smooth fluid processing.

Its clever engineering separates the filter housing from the internal mesh element, allowing for quick disassembly, effortless cleaning, and low maintenance. By capturing all particulates larger than the mesh size, this filter enables pipelines to consistently produce purified liquids, making it an essential component for breweries, biopharmaceuticals, and hygienic processing lines.

Key features

1.90-Degree Configuration: The inlet and outlet form a right angle, which is particularly suitable for installations with limited space, such as on vertical pipelines or when connecting equipment directly to pumps.

2.Easy Maintenance and Clean: Many models allow the filter screen or mesh to be removed for cleaning without having to remove the entire housing from the pipeline.

3.High-Quality Filter Elements: Internal screens, often in a wedge wire or perforated basket format, can capture particulates from 30 mesh to 300 mesh, or 50 microns to 2000 microns, protecting downstream equipment.

Advantages:

1.Easy Cleaning & Maintenance: The design allows for easy removal of the filter screen without dismantling the entire pipe network. The smooth, polished internal surfaces prevent bacterial growth, and they are highly suitable for Cleaning in Place (CIP) systems.

2.Low Pressure Drop: The wide-angle design allows for efficient flow, reducing the pressure drop across the filter compared to more restrictive inline designs.

3.Versatility in Applications: They are used to protect downstream equipment like pumps and valves from damage by capturing particulates. They are suitable for dairy, brewing, and other high-purity industries.

FAQ:

Q1: What is the main advantage of the Sanitary Angle Type Filter?

It fits directly into pipe corners, saving space by replacing a separate 90-degree elbow.

Q2: Can it be cleaned with CIP?

The housing can be flushed automatically, but the mesh basket must be pulled out to remove trapped debris.

Q3: Which flow direction is correct?

Fluid flows from the inside of the mesh basket out, keeping captured dirt trapped inside for easy removal.

Q4: Can it handle high temperatures?

Yes, the stainless steel body handles extreme heat, but the temperature limit depends on your chosen gasket material.
