Engineering and DesignOur highly experienced engineering and contracts team have vast experience in designing filtration equipment for many applications andindustries. From initial concept design, to supply and installation, working with our dedicated contract managers, we can offer a full service toensure your project runs on time and on budget.Finite Element Analysis (FEA)FEA is a good choice for analysing problems over complicateddesigns especially for pressure vessels such as filters. We have theprograms and the knowledge to ensure our filter solutions remaincost effective, efficient and above all, a safe design for operatorswhen installed.Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)CFD is crucial in developing a solution or solving and analysingproblems that involve fluid/gas flows. This is why we use the latestCFD software to simulate the interaction of liquids and gases withinour product designs in order to provide a filtration solution which haspredictable results. 3D Drafting, CAD and CAE Layout Designs N Space is at a premium whether it be on an oil rig or in a process plant, a new installation or fitting into an existing footprint, we can offer full is utilised efficiently and effectively. By using modern CAD / CAE packages we can ensure yourfilter system can also be used as part of your P&ID documents, engineering drawings in 2D and 3D so that full potential of the space 65making component identification easier and SPIR (Spare PartsCJR MW 28.06.11FINAL AS BUILTREVISED AS PER CLIENT COMMENTSISZ TPREVISED AS PER CLIENT COMMENTS43REVISED AS PER CLIENT COMMENTS210REVISED AS PER CLIENT COMMENTSREVISED AS PER CLIENT COMMENTSORIGINAL ISSUEREVRP A113.12.10SCALEMW 24.11.10MW 08.10.10RPRPISZREVISIONFIRST ANGLE PROJECTIONDIMENSIONALTOLERANCES TOBS5276EXCEPT AS STATEDSIZE & TYPEDRN ISZ 29.03.2010ISZ 15.09.10BP 17.05.1020" NB CLASS 150 AUT.

Filter ProductsLiquid FiltersOur liquid process filter designs come in a varietyof shapes, sizes and materials in accordancewith international pressure vessel codes.Available in various designs from single basketand dual basket (duplex) filters to angle basket,fully automatic backflush filters, cartridge typefilters and Hi-Flow filters.Gas FiltersDesigned to remove solids from gas streams,the gas filter range is extensive, from standardcast models to fully bespoke horizontal orvertical designs, all in accordance with variousdesign codes such as Fas PD5500/E13 andASME VIII.Designed to incorporate either quickrelease or bolted closures and a choiceof filtration elements of cleanable ordisposable design.Utilising our filtration experiencethese filters will be supplied with theappropriate filtration element for theoperating conditions, be it stainlesssteel, fibreglass or suitable media in acleanable or disposable designs.SeparatorsDesigned for the removal of both solids andliquids from gas streams, these filter separatorsare constructed using Plenty coalescingcartridges, vane units and/or cyclones to achievethe required solid and liquid removal efficiency.With a variety of models to choose from, unitsare available from a pipe size of 2” and above, tosuit both high and low pressures, and availableCoalescersThese are designed to coalesce fine liquid mistin gas streams into droplets considerably largerthan their original size. As the flow enters thevessel below the elements and passes through aflow distributor, this acts as a primary separationdevice removing coarse liquids by gravity. Theflow passes through the coalescing cartridgesin an inside-to-out flow direction and liquids arecoalesced through the structure of the element.10in a range of materials suitable for mostoperating conditions.Thesecustomdesignedandmanufactured filters are engineered tomeet specific application details whilst inaccordance with international pressurevessel codes.These then settle by gravity and can bedrained from the vessel.Our units are available in both horizontaland vertical orientation with single ortwo stage construction, designed tosuit the clients requirements and designstandards.
