Metallurgy

Many modern metallurgy processes involve the use of vacuum, either in the secondary refinement of raw steels or the treatment of finished components.  Our Filtration can offer solutions to protect vacuum systems in many different applications.  We can offer solutions for complex secondary steel manufacturing techniques such as VD and VOD to simpler heat treatment processes. 

Whether the solution requires a stock filter or a bese pole design, we can provide products that you need.  Some of the options we provide include high efficiency media, high temperature resistant materials, reverse pulse cleaning, ATEX certified assemblies and helium leak testing.

Our products series that are used in the various Metallurgy Industry:

CSL Series - inlet Vacuum Filters

RST Series - Reverse Pulse Vacuum Filters

SRS Series - Knock out Tanks

RX Series - Extreme Duty Applications with Reverse Pulse Technology

HDL Series - Oil Mist Discharge Filters

FS Series - Inlet Filter Silencers

ATEX Certified Assemblies

Vacuum Degassing (VD) / Vacuum Oxygen Decarburization (VOF)

 The steel degassing processes are used to provide higher quality and supply more specialty grade steels.  Two main processes are vacuum degassing (VD) and vacuum oxygen decarburization (VOD).  These processes require large vacuum pumping capacities and have to cope with large amounts of metallic fines and oxide dust.  Historically multiple steam ejector stages were used but required a lot of maintenance and excessive amount of steam.  Today dry mechanical vacuum pumping systems offer a better solution with increased dust handling capabilities, lower energy consumption and reduced maintenance cots.
