Filtration solutions for Parts Washing and Cleaning

Continuous filtration of washing and rinse solutions, using bag or depth filters, enables recirculating bath systems to maintain the quality of the wash fluids being used. These types of system are prevalent in the automotive industry where all components in contact with vehicle fluids are now put through component cleaning procedure.

A similar situation applies to baths used in electroplating and metal finishing sectors. Recirculating baths are used, but it is necessary to remove all particulate and organics from plating solutions, otherwise particulate contamination will cause rough plating and a build-up of organics leads to hazy deposits and poor plating adhesion. The use of cartridge depth and carbon filters installed in the fluid recirculating lines prevents these issues

Other manufacturing processes that benefit from an improvement in fluid cleanliness are coolants used in machine tooling, metal working fluids and wash water recirculating lines. By removing contamination at component manufacturing stage, we are preventing possible downstream contamination which has the potential to impact long term performance of the finished product.
