The metal felt of the Swift Filter elements is highly porous (up to 85%), providing high flow rates. Filtration with metal felt filter elements can provide particle retention, longer on-stream time and high dirt-holding capacity for under 60 micron filter elements. The resistance to high temperature, pressure and corrosion makes the filter elements economical for use in hostile environments.
Applications for the Swift Filter metal felt filter elements include chemical and catalyst recovery, polymer filtration, aerospace, medical and pharmaceutical, nuclear venting, food and beverage and refinery uses.
