Steam filtration is a crucial process in many industrial applications where clean steam is essential to ensure high quality, safety, and efficiency. Contaminants such as rust, scale, and other particulates can compromise product integrity and equipment performance, making effective filtration a necessity.
Steam filtration is used in the food industry, pharmaceutical production, chemical manufacturing, and the energy sector. In these industries, sterile and high-purity steam is required for applications such as sterilization, heating, and processing. Proper filtration prevents contamination, reduces maintenance costs, and enhances overall operational efficiency.
Steam can contain particles, rust, oil residues, and other contaminants that can damage equipment or degrade product quality. Steam filtration removes these unwanted elements, which:
• Extends the lifespan of valves, boilers, and heat exchangers
• Prevents contamination in the food and pharmaceutical industries
• Ensures optimal efficiency in production
• Reduces maintenance costs
In the food industry, filtration ensures clean steam for pasteurization, sterilization, and cleaning. In pharmaceuticals, sterile steam is essential for medicine production. In the chemical industry, filtration protects equipment from harmful particles, and in the energy sector, clean steam ensures high operational reliability in turbine and heating systems.
Nordic Filtration uses P-DD filter housings with either BSP or flange connections combined with steam filters with a filtration grade of 1-20µm. This ensures optimal purity and high performance in steam applications.
