STEAM FILTER ELEMENTS

Compressed Air & Process Filtration

Donaldson® P-GS elements are designed for filtering steam and aggressive liquids or gases.

Filtered steam is required whenever steam comes in direct contact with food product or product contact surfaces. It is also necessary to protect sterile filter integrity when using steam to sterilize filter elements. Filtered steam is recom- mended for the protection of precision modulating system components like pressure reducing valves, and to maintain efficiency of any heat transfer equipment.

P-GS elements offer drop-in replacements for:

• Parker Domnick Hunter

• Pall

• RP Adams

These elements are availble in these connection styles:

P-GS

• Double open end

• Trueseal

• Demi

• Threaded UF

• Jumbo

• 226 Bayonet • Porocarbon

APPLICATIONS

There are several terms used for steam. Process steam is used in process applications as a source

of energy for process heating, pressure control and mechanical drives. Culinary steam can be direct injected during food processing. Culinary steam needs to meet 3-A Culinary Standards for the dairy industry. Process steam does not generally come in contact with the final product whereas culinary steam can, and often does, come in direct contact with the final product.

P-GS STEAM FILTER ELEMENTS

REGENERATION

Steam filter elements are commonly regenerated to reduce differential pressure drop, remove settled contami- nants, and prevent permanent contamination buildup. The Donaldson P-GS Filter elements can be regenerated using a number of different techniques. In general, the more frequently an element is cleaned, the better the regeneration. It is recommended that all cleaners are in compliance with CFR, Title 21. The following is some general background in methods of steam filter element regeneration.*

Counter-Flow

The filter media can be washed with either clean liquid or clean gas in a reverse, or counterflow, cycle. Pulsing the flow to loosen attached particles can enhance cleaning. This method is excellent where retained particles are on the surface of the media. Use of a soft nylon brush can also enhance this method of cleaning.

Solvent Cleaning Forward Flow

In some cases, oil and other contaminants in the steam cause particles to be retained on or within the filter media. Detergents and/or solvents might be required in these instances, not only to remove the oil or oil-like contaminants, but also to allow particles to be released. The chemical resistance of o-rings should be checked prior to solvent cleaning. After cleaning with solvents, it is essential to flush with cold water thoroughly and let all liquid evaporate.

Ultrasonic Cleaning

The most thorough regeneration can be achieved using ultrasonic cleaning. In this method, filter elements are immersed in a non-flammable solvent or water bath in which ultrasonic waves lead to a loosening and removal of particles embedded in the media. Regeneration is nearly total, leaving elements close to their original state.

CLEAN STEAM

In many applications steam comes in contact with the product itself. For example, direct injection of steam into large vats of processed foods is one method used to cook those foods. In other cases, steam is used to clean or sterilize surfaces, tools and containers used in processing and packaging of various products such as pharma- ceuticals. In all cases, steam is being generated and distributed in piping systems, and these often end in small orifices or nozzles that can be easily fouled by contaminants in the steam.

Filtration of steam is essential to avoid product contamination and equipment downtime. Particulate contami- nants found in steam can include rust, scale, dirt and sediments carried over from the water source.

* Contact a Donaldson representative for more details on P-GS steam filter element regeneration and sanitation guidelines.

Important Notice

Many factors beyond the control of Donaldson can affect the use and performance of Donaldson products in a particular application, including the conditions under which the product is used.
