47mm Porous Disc Filter 316L SS Sintered Metal Filter for Laboratory Bench Scale Testing

HENGKO’s bench-top filter (47mm disc test filter), our 47mm disc filter, is a simple, inexpensive way to effect liquid-solid and gas-solid separations with either vacuum or pressure. The first step to larger pilot and process systems, this filter offers an impressive array of benefits.

Design advantages

• Accurate scale-up data for larger systems

• Compact design – disc area is 2.69 in2

How it works

The 47mm disc test filter is a barrier-type filter. The lab data can be used to scale up to LSI, LSM, or LSP filter systems. Contaminated product enters the test filter and particulate is trapped on the surface of the porous disc while clean fluid exits the unit. As contaminant builds on the filter media, fluid flow will decrease (under constant pressure) or pressure drop will increase (constant flow). At terminal conditions, flow is reversed to dislodge the filter cake and remove it from the housing.

Perfect for:

• Laboratory bench scale testing

• Feasibility studies

• Small-scale, batch-type processes
