Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard carbon steel for filtration in corrosive environments.Always specify 304 stainless steel or equivalent for applications involving corrosive fluids or gases to prevent premature degradation and contamination.
Improper sealing of filter media, leading to bypass.Utilize appropriate gasketing materials and secure mounting techniques to ensure a complete seal around the filter sheet, maximizing filtration efficiency.
