AIRPEL SINGLE FILTER (OV)
Airpel Single Filters have for many years provided a cost effective method of protecting pipeline equipment, cleaning liquids or salvaging valuable solids.
The filter is of cast construction and incorporates a high quality stainless steel cylindrical basket.
The filter is for use in liquid handling installations where the flow can be shut off for short periods to allow the basket to be cleaned.

| AIRPEL DUAL FILTER (OW)
Airpel Dual Filters have been used on important fluid handling applications throughout the world for many years.
For applications where the requirement is for continous flow with minimum loss of pressure, the Airpel range provides quality of design and performance.
The filter is of cast construction and incorporates two chambers each containing a high quality stainless steel basket. Flow is diverted from one basket to the other without being interrupted by simply turning the handle which rotates dual cylindrical cocks.

SELF-CLEANING FILTER
Airpel self-cleaning filters have been designed specifically to provide efficient filtration of virtually all liquids, including those of high viscosity, whilst minimizing both disruption of flow and liquid loss during the element cleaning process. There is no operator contact with the process fluid.
The high quality stainless steel wedge wire (or perforated) element is highly effective in removing contaminant particles as small as 25 microns.
Cleaning is carried out by rotating the element against fixed scraper blades which remove debris from the surface of the element. This in turn is drained from the base of the filter.
The filter is available for either manual or fully automatic (electric or pneumatic) operation. The range of optional control devices make it particularly suitable for continuous processes and for processes with high contamination levels. | |

HYGIENIC BASKET FILTER
Airpel's new range of stainless steel filters are designed primarily for filtration applications within the Food, Beverage or Pharmaceutical industries. The crevice-free construction and polished internal surfaces make it an ideal alternative to conventional cartridge-type filters when filtration levels down to 25 microns are required and available with a wide range of connection types including RJT and Tri Clamp.

API FILTERS
Airpel manufacture a range of API filters for the oil and offshore industry. These units, manufactured in cast steel and stainless steel, offer fine filtration down to 10µm. The filters are in accordance with the latest API specification and are available with ASME VIII calculations. Sizes available as standard 25mm - 100mm (1"-4") with flow rates up to 1500 litres per minute.

AIRPEL BACKWASH STRAINERS
Airpel backwash strainers are used for the continuous filtration of suspended solids from low viscosity liquids (normally water). Applications are normally in industrial plants using river, lake, well or sea water for descaling, bearing lubrication, spraying, quenching and similar duties. Airpel offers two alternative designs of backwash strainer. The model A features a compact but uniquely rugged construction that incorporates a shearing action to break up debris and options that allow the strainer to be fitted on both the suction and discharge side of the pump. This model can be used for removal of fibres. Our model AFW is a more conventional cost effective backwash strainer that is used for similar but generally less demanding duties. Backwash strainers can be offered in cast iron, aluminium bronze and stainless steel in sizes up to 1220mm (48") pipe size

TEMPORARY STRAINERS
Equipment requiring protection will have permanent strainers fitted in the piping system and the range illustrated in this catalogue will meet these needs. However, temporary strainers are necessary when commissioning plant after construction or during maintenance to remove flow debris. This is generally of a coarse nature and can cause considerable damage to equipment and pipelines. Our standard range is illustrated. Two basic constructions exist; one being perforated plate and the other supported woven wire mesh. Strainer top rings are suitable for standard flange faces and have integral identification tags. Separate spacer rings for insertion after removal of temporary strainers are available (if required). Standard strainer top rings are as illustrated and will fit most flanges. Other top rings available on request.

SERVICES
Airpel is in the position to offer special designs to meet industry requirements. One of the prime examples of this ability was shown when a major paint manufacturer came to Airpel to develop a mobile filtration unit for batch runs. Airpel has the expertise and products to develop systems to meet specific customer applications. Airpel can provide a service engineer either as part of a service contract or in the form of an individual site visit. All service engineers are skilled technicians trained to offer a complete range of skills necessary for the overhaul and commissioning of Airpel Filtration equipment.
