Tapered Filter Element 5 Micron 304 Stainless Steel for Compressed Air Filtration 200°C
Product Spotlights
As a trusted manufacturer since 1998, Anping County Boli Hardware Wiremesh Products Factory specializes in precision filtration solutions. Our Tapered Filter Element 5 Micron 304 Stainless Steel is engineered for demanding compressed air systems, offering consistent filtration efficiency and thermal stability up to 200°C. Designed with a conical shape to maximize surface area and reduce pressure drop, this element ensures reliable removal of solid contaminants, prolonging equipment life and maintaining air quality.
Key Features & Benefits
- High Precision Filtration: 5 micron absolute rating captures fine particles, dust, and rust, protecting downstream valves, dryers, and pneumatic tools.
- 304 Stainless Steel Construction: Corrosion-resistant and durable, ideal for humid or aggressive compressed air environments.
- Tapered / Conical Design: Increases effective filtration area by up to 30% compared to standard cylindrical elements, reducing replacement frequency and energy consumption.
- High Temperature Resistance: Operates continuously at 200°C (392°F), suitable for hot compressed air or industrial processes with elevated temperatures.
- Low Pressure Drop: Optimized pleat geometry ensures minimal resistance, maintaining system efficiency and reducing operational costs.
- Customizable Options: Available in various sizes, connection types (threaded, flanged, or with O-ring), and end cap configurations to fit OEM and aftermarket housings.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Q: Can this filter element be used for oil removal in compressed air?
A: This element is designed for solid particulate removal (5 micron). For oil coalescing, a separate coalescing filter stage is recommended. However, the stainless steel mesh can be used as a pre-filter to protect coalescing elements. -
Q: Is the 304 stainless steel suitable for food-grade compressed air?
A: 304 stainless steel is generally accepted for food contact surfaces, but we recommend confirming with your local food safety standards. The element can be supplied with silicone seals for food-grade applications. -
Q: How often should the filter element be replaced?
A: Replacement frequency depends on operating conditions (dust load, temperature, humidity). Typically, the element can be cleaned ultrasonically and reused 5-10 times. A differential pressure gauge is recommended to monitor when cleaning is needed (usually at 0.5-0.7 bar pressure drop). -
Q: Can you customize the outer diameter and length?
A: Yes, we offer custom sizes. Please provide your housing dimensions and connection type, and we will produce accordingly. -
Q: What is the maximum pressure rating?
A: Our standard tapered filter element is designed for working pressures up to 16 bar (232 psi). Higher pressure ratings are available upon request with reinforced construction. -
Q: Is the element resistant to chemical corrosion?
A: 304 stainless steel offers good resistance to many chemicals, but it may not be suitable for strong acids or chlorides. For aggressive environments, 316L stainless steel or other alloys can be offered as an option. -
Q: Do you provide samples before bulk order?
A: Yes, we can provide samples for evaluation. Sample cost and shipping are negotiable, especially for first-time cooperation.
