Balston® Steam filters that permit direct steam contact with food are now available from Parker Hannifin Corp.
Balston Steam Filters remove 98+% of 0.1 micron particles and 100% of all visible particles from steam. Liquid condensate is removed at the same efficiency as for solid particles. Models are available to handle flow rates of up to 3,000 lbs/hr.
Other benefits of Balston Steam filters include: Reduction in steam condensate mixing with the food products when steam is used for agitating, mixing or cooking; significant reduction in carryover of boiler feedwater chemicals into the food product, causing taste and odor problems; greatly reduced maintenance requirements for valves, cookers, heat exchangers, and other equipment.
Balston Steam Filters are in full compliance with the requirements of the US Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act. They meet the regulations for Indirect Food Additives used as Basic Components for Repeated Use Food Contact Surfaces as specified in 21 CFR Part 177, and Current Good Manufacturing Practices, 21 CFR Part 110. Balston Steam Filters have also been accepted by the USDA for use in federally inspected meat and poultry plants. They are also in full compliance with the 3A Accepted Practices (Number 609-00) for producing steam of culinary quality, and they are in full compliance with the requirements of the Health Protection Branch of Health and Welfare Canada.

ZANDER Sterile Filters are specially designed to remove all microorganisms and thus produce 100% sterile compressed air. This air can then be used in those processes in which sterility is crucial. The ZANDER Sterile Filter Series "HB" covers a whole range of models, from filters for low air volumes in laboratories or pilot plants to filters for large scale industrial process applications.
--Sterile filter-- for 100% contamination-free compressed air and gases. Sterile filters HB series are sterilizeable in situ using steam up to 142°C for 15 minutes.
Note: it is necessary to dry and prefilter the compressed air before the sterile filter.
Absolute retention rate (air and gases): 0,01 µm.
Recommended temperature range: up to 80°C continuously.
-Standard equipment:
Complete filter including sterile element.
Filter housing made of stainless steel 1.4301 (AISI 304), EPDM housing seal, construction stainless steel inner support, outside polypropylene support.
CE mark in accordance with the Pressure Equipment Directive 97/23/EC (PED) for Fluid Group 2. No CE mark is authorised under Article 3 paragraph 3 for smaller filters. Filters suitable for Fluid Group 1 on request.
--Steam filter-- for the removal of solid particles from a steam flow with temperatures up to 200C. Efficiency at normal capacity: 99,99% (1 or 25). Initial differential pressure at normal capacty: 0,1 bar (D series). Initial differential pressure at normal capacity: 0,025 bar (HS/DPL series). Recommended temperature range: up to 200C continuously.
Standard equipment:
Complete filter including steam filter element. Filter housing made of stainless steel 1.4301 (AISI 304), EPDM housing seal, element made out of sintered stainless steel (D series) or fiberous stainless steel (HS/DPL series). CE mark in accordance with the Pressure Equipment Directive 97/23/EC (PED) for Fluid Group 2. No CE mark is authorised under Article 3 paragraph 3 for smaller filters. Filters suitable under Article 3 paragraph 3 for smaller filters. Filters suitable for Fluid Group 1 on request. |

Oil and Water Vapor Adsorbers (25-2,200 scfm)
Oil vapor can be very detrimental to many products and processes including food, pharmaceutical, instrument, hospital and electronics applications. In these cases an oil adsorber should be installed downstream of both lubricated and non-lubricated air compressors as hydrocarbon vapors are found in ambient air and can be concentrated in the compressed air stream. Oil adsorbers use a charge of activated carbon to remove unwanted hydrocarbon vapors. These adsorbers can be used as single tower water vapor adsorbers with a charge of activated alumina.
Stainless steel diffuser and adsorbent support screens for superior corrosion resistance.
Down flow design for less fluidization and longer adsorbent life.
ASME section VIII designed, manufactured and stamped (where applicable) for certified quality assurance
Specially selected carbon and aluminum adsorbents for low pressure drop.
Separate fill and drain ports for ease in adsorbent replacement.

690 Marine Bronze Duplex Strainer
Size: 3"
Strainers provide positive and inexpensive protection for costly pumps, meters, valves,
and other similar mechanical equipment by straining foreign matter from the connected piping
system. Installation of a strainer before mechanical equipment can ensure trouble free service
and avoid costly shutdowns for repair or replacement of equipment damaged by foreign
matter. The size of the perforation or mesh in the basket screen will determine the smallest
particles captured. See Strainer Information section of the Mueller Steam Specialty
Engineering binder for detailed information including sizes and materials available.
Typical Service
As with all duplex strainers, these are used where flow cannot be shut down for basket cleaning.
These sight glass duplex strainers are typically used in engine cooling water systems in seawater and heat exchanger applications.
When supplied with fine mesh lined baskets, they can be used to clarify potable water supplies.
Features
Clear acrylic basket chambers allow direct visual inspection of the fluid flow and basket condition.
Flow diversion is accomplished by a single tapered plug diverter that moves 90°, thereby opening one chamber while closing the other.
Sight glass chambers and baskets are accessed for easy cleaning, inspection, and replacement by removal of two wing nuts. |
