FILTRATION MEDIA AND FILTERS TESTING – CHARACTERIZATION OF PERFORMANCES
Presentation
Principles and mechanisms of filtration (1hr)
– Filtration theory (Darcy’s law)
– Operating parameters having an impact of the filtration performances
Characteristics of the fluids under filtration (2hrs)
– Characteristics of the liquid itself (superficial tension, viscosity, density)
– Size characteristics of the solid particles (particle size distribution in number, mass or volume)
Characteristics of filter media (4hrs)
– intrinsic: structure, particle size, mesh, pore …
– functional: hydraulic (permeability, pressure drop, …), filtering (efficiency, threshold, cut off …), compatibility (resistance to mechanical, chemical stresses …)
– integrity check
Panorama of the existing standards that apply to process fluids, fluid power, fuels and lubricating oils
