The newly developed Herding Beta filter element has the unique and proven properties of the Sinter-Plate Filter and is specially designed for higher operating temperatures. Classic Herding Sinter-Plate Filters with PE-based matrix serve operating temperatures up to 70 °C and, if thermostabilized, up to 100 °C. The Beta with a sintered PPS-based matrix projects all well known features up to operating temperatures of 160 °C. This new filter media allows use in versatile applications and is highly resistant to chemical attacks and hydrolysis. The resistance to pH levels ranges from 1 to 10. Its pure surface filtration ensures consistent operation, reduces cleaning pressure and enhances energy efficiency. Just as the classic Sinter-Plate Filter it’s fiber-free, making it ideal for contamination-free material recovery. Herding’s R&D team conducted extensive pilot phases e.g. in dryer applications, biomass incineration plants, rotary kiln extraction, glass tank dedusting and behind mill systems.
Tailorable element
The Herding Omikron small filter element combines the unique properties of the Sinter-Plate Filter with customizable features, allowing customers to tailor it to their specific requirements. The new developed filter element leaves the geometric limitations of standardized shapes behind. In combination with additive manufacturing processes, the shapes can be completely rethought and recreated. It is now possible to adapt geometries to the intended use and structural conditions.
Omikron is manufactured exclusively from one polymer both the basic body and coating of the filter elements. Thus, it meets VO(EG) 1935/2004, VO(EU) 10/2011, and FDA standards, ensuring its suitability for food and pharmaceutical applications. It can be washed and sterilized according to industrial standards, enhancing its versatility and hygiene. Extensive tests on various test systems confirm typical Herding product properties. The design of the Omikron creates an unprecedented high level of stability, allowing high pressure losses and high filtration speeds.
All Herding Developments have always been based on pure surface filtration with rigid-body filter media, and a homogeneously embedded coating as the filter-active layer. This combination makes the Sinter-Plate Filter so effective. dh
